Quality, timely work, not to specifications

I hired Andy to put in a turn-around / parking area off the side of my driveway; the job included a retaining wall, a truck load of dirt, and a truck load of gravel. Andy was right on time for both the initial estimate and the actual job, which was great. I had explained at the time of the estimate that I wanted the extension to be 20 ft wide by 17 ft deep, and I even had stakes marking the four corners. I was too distracted by other things when they first got started that I didn't really pay close attention to what they were doing. I did mention to Andy, when the wall was almost complete, that it looked a little small but he insisted it was about 20x20. By the time I got close enough to determine it was absolutely not that large, the job was almost complete. It's closer to 16 ft wide x 10 ft deep - just barely deep enough to park a Wrangler, let alone a full size car or truck. His final price wound up being a couple hundred less than the estimate, but I'd have rathered pay the full amount and have the job done correctly.



It's decent quality workmanship and his timeliness impressed me, so I would still recommend him to others, but I would advise them to pay attention and ensure specifications are met and don't be too meek, like I am, to have them fix any mistakes before it's too late.

I would like to apologize to Jennifer first for taking so long to reply to her dissatisfaction of the completed job and also too explain why the specs weren't met exactly. We went as far back as possible and still have room to work the machinery without getting on the neighbors property. There was also a shrub that needed to be saved that we worked around. The overall measurements should have been 18 feet front to back from driveway and 22 across. We installed 2 lengths of railroad ties from front to back which are 9' long for each tie. We installed 2.5 across the back at 9'per tie. I know were we lapped the ties would have taken away about 16". I am very sorry for the deviation in size since I did not make a final measurement and only went by the length of material for sizing. I felt very bad about the problem and when Jennifer mentioned her dissatisfaction I compensated on the final bill. Jennifer is a good client and I hope the extension is working for her though it is not as large as she would have liked.

This listing has been claimed by a business representative.
