## The honest read

Melgar Masonry and Landscaping is a Central Falls, Rhode Island outfit whose customers hire Luis for stone steps, pavers and yard builds. It holds 4.2 stars from 13 ratings on Angi, and its BBB grade is A+.

The written reviews date from 2021 to 2023. In a November 2022 Angi review, a customer wrote that Luis visited quickly, gave an estimate within three days, met them at a local stone supplier to look at options, and had two sets of stairs rebuilt with bluestone caps and stone facing plus a walkway rebuilt in pavers, completed on time and on budget, with workers starting early and working until dark. A January 2022 customer described a modern retaining wall, a basketball court, a custom fire pit, a custom white oak fence and a paved courtyard, and said neighbors were hiring him for their yard. In a May 2022 review, Luis and his team picked up and planted 10 large emerald green arborvitae, working in the rain to finish before a storm. Another January 2022 reviewer called the price for stonework and paver work very fair.

There are complaints. In a June 2023 Angi review about a landscaping job, a customer called him a thief and wrote that he stole $14000 from them. A January 2022 snow-removal customer said only half the driveway was cleared because their car was in it, and asked for notice of arrival next time.

**Strengths:**
- Stone and paver work — 2022 reviews describe stairs, walkways, courtyards
- On time, on budget — November 2022 stair and walkway rebuild

**Concerns:**
- Theft accusation — a 2023 reviewer says $14000 was stolen
- Snow removal — 2022 customer got half a driveway cleared
