The porch was a disaster and needed to be either repaired or rebuilt. After speaking with Carl and having him explain the pros and cons of my two choices, I decided to go with the rebuild. The rebuild took some time to complete, but each stage was explained in detail. Living with the construction mess outside the front door wasn't always pleasant, but every day the area was swept clean with tools, etc. put away. Even in the heatwave and baking sun, Carl and his crew sweated it out and put in a solid day of work. Carl is honest, hardworking and dedicated. He's a skilled mason and it shows in the quality of his work. Thank you Carl for my beautiful new porch! And a special shoutout to Larry, Ben and David for their hard work as well and for not passing out in the extreme heat!
