Walkways by Andrew

Walkways by Andrew is a Bridgewater, Massachusetts hardscape specialist run by owner Andrew, building paver walkways, patios, granite steps, and retaining walls, with a second base in Marshfield. The written record here is unusually deep — 36 reviews across Angi and HomeAdvisor spanning 2008 to 2023 — and the pattern is remarkably consistent: customers keep citing Andrew's own design suggestions as what made the project better than expected. In a December 2022 review, a customer described a 20-by-40-foot patio built with close attention to detail, calling the whole process exceptional from start to finish. A 2021 review said Andrew built a front walkway and landing exactly to a photo the homeowner provided, with craftsmanship evident throughout. And in a 2019 review, a customer in a newly developed neighborhood said Andrew came back for touch-ups as the land settled, and that neighbors loved the finished patio, fire pit, and seating wall enough to ask about it themselves. There is one real blemish on that record: a 2008 review describes a walkway that started sinking within three months, says Andrew came out once, agreed it needed fixing, and then went quiet after that. The business's own reply to that review, though, disputes doing the job at all, saying it doesn't recall the work and questioning whether the reviewer has the right contractor — so the two accounts flatly disagree, and there's no way to resolve which is right from here. Angi shows a 4.8-star rating from 11 reviews and HomeAdvisor a 4.9-star rating from 41, and both directories' write-ups line up closely with what the individual reviews describe. For a paver walkway, patio, or hardscape project, this is a deep and mostly glowing track record — the one dated dispute from 2008 is worth being aware of, but it stands alone against many years of detailed, specific praise.
