These guys did a GREAT job building our patio. Very neat and professional. One year after install, I had a very small area that was puddleing after it rained. A call to the company and two days later it was taken care of. You don't find many companies today especially in the trade that stand behind their work.
I literally have no words. Erlin and his father did an incredible job on redoing my steps. They are so meticulous and their attention to detail is beyond what I expected. More so than anything, Erlin made sure to win over his trust and assuring they could make everything right. Look forward to working with them again and will recommend them over and over again.
Shkembi masonry was very responsive and reliable. They did an excellent job on our patio and walkway and completed the job in just a few days. They even spread out some dirt and grass seed in some areas of the yard that needed it. I would highly recommend them!
These guys were phenomenal! From my initial request for a quote, through completion these guys were great! The craftsmanship was beautiful. They were very easy to communicate with and helped brought my vision to life! Shkembi was accommodating, on time, kept and finished with everything cleaned up! I would be happy to recommend them to anyone who are looking for these types of services!
I hired Erlin for a patio and I’m really happy with his service and quality of work.
