Reply: “Hi Jason, I am shocked with the review you gave us. I get full 5 for everything and have not had a single review under 5 for everything. Workmanship you gave us 2 out of 5. You instructed us to give you a rough as possible concrete grind to make your restaurant floor look old. I warned you that I am not an artist and can only do things properly. I gave you a quote and you excepted my quote way before the job deadline. You give me 3 even though I gave you the best quote. Schedule. You are a mean!”

“Ray and Denise have done a great job installing a ground moisture barrier in our rental property. We found they had excellent communication, and most importantly (being a landlord from out of town) I found them to be professional, reliable and trustworthy. They completed the job at a reasonable price too, so we even booked them in to do some other odd jobs for us at the rental (plastering/painting and a few repairs). I would be happy to call on them again in the future. Thanks Ray and Denise.”
