Garage slab repair, concrete patio and flagstone, foundation repair
OVERALL ASSESSMENT: Dave and company provided very good value for the work done and while I do have some nitpicky concerns I believe they deserve a full ten points. I soundly recommend them.
THE JOB: We originally called about having a garage slab repaired and Dave came promptly and provided a clear quote indicating why his work was superior to prevent the slab from collapsing again (using rebar and wire mesh). We expanded the job to include rebuilding our front patio with flagstone. Due to our concerns regarding the labour practices of Indian sandstone quarrying Dave was able to source local limestone to match our budget. Finally, the crumbling foundation needed to be ground down and parged and Dave once again worked within our budget to get the work done.
QUALITY OF WORK: Quality of work was good to excellent. Some cosmetic deficiencies do exist but none significant enough to warrant a downgrade. Overall the work was done with care and artistry and attention to quality that meets or exceeds industry norms. Dave was very concerned we are happy with the work done.
WORK AREA APPEARANCE AND CLEANUP: This is perhaps a weak area for the team. The end of day work area was a bit messy and final cleanup left bits of rock and cement scatter about. At his own initiative Dave offered to have his team come and clean up better.
SCHEDULING: Scheduling was good although I needed to contact them several times to complete the final stage of work which was a few weeks later than originally promised.
COMMUNICATION: Dave and team are generally very good at responding to questions but we did have some issues with miscommunication. I suggest this be an area they work to improve.
COMPANY ASSESSMENT: Employees are dedicated to quality and seem to enjoy their work. Company is honest and fulfills promises. I liked how they had both good Homestar ratings plus A+ BBB rating with no complaints. This is a solid company.
VALUE FOR MONEY: Despite the minor issues listed Three Little Pigs provided very good value for the money. He offers a very generous warranty.
BOTTOM LINE: I would hire them again.
