Four Hands Masonry and Paving, Corp.

Four Hands Masonry and Paving Corp. is a Yonkers, New York masonry, paving, and home-improvement contractor run by owner Gerson DeOliveira, serving the Lower Hudson Valley and Western Connecticut. The company is a BBB Accredited Business with an A+ rating and cites self-reported Westchester County and City of Yonkers contractor license numbers. The written record is strong and consistent: Google shows a 5-star average from 90 ratings, and HomeAdvisor and Angi each show a 4.9-star average from 43 reviews. In a 2019 review, a homeowner described a $38,882 pool-patio replacement using Cambridge pavers finished in 8 working days, calling the crew 'perfectionists.' A 2022 review described stone-veneer fireplace work completed with careful daily cleanup, and a 2020 review praised patio, deck power-washing, and painting work. Across these accounts from 2017 to 2022, reviewers repeatedly and specifically credit owner Gerson by name for responsiveness, fair pricing, and clean, detailed craftsmanship. One thing worth asking about: the company's own website and its HomeAdvisor/Angi profiles state conflicting tenure figures -- 17, 20, 25, and 26 years of experience appear across different pages and platforms -- while BBB's verified incorporation record shows the company was started in November 2016, about 9 years ago. This looks like unedited or templated marketing copy rather than a claim about the underlying work, since the reviews themselves are detailed, dated, and consistently corroborate the same real owner and specific jobs, but homeowners should confirm the company's actual track record length directly rather than relying on the marketing copy. Four Hands is a reasonable choice for masonry and paving work in its service area given its strong, well-corroborated review history -- just ask about actual years in business and get current proof of licensing and insurance before booking.
