Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We hold Pennsylvania Home Improvement Contractor registration PA212584 and carry liability insurance. Every job gets a written contract.
How do you price a job?
You get a written, fixed price for the scope we agree on. If you want to add or change something, we write up the change and its price before we do the work.
What warranty do you give?
Every job comes with a written 6-month warranty, spelled out in your contract.
Do I need a permit for a retaining wall?
Usually only for bigger walls. Walls over 4 feet tall, measured from the bottom of the footing, or walls holding up a driveway, building or steep slope generally need an engineered design and a permit. Rules vary by township, so we check yours and tell you up front.
Can you fix a patio or wall another company installed?
Yes. A lot of our work is rebuilding sunken patios and leaning or failing walls. We fix the base and drainage underneath, not just the surface.
When do you build?
Patios and walls go in from about mid-March through November. Excavation and general construction keep going through the winter, and winter is the time to design and sign so you’re on the spring schedule.
Do you offer snow removal?
Yes. Plowing and salting for homes and businesses around Lock Haven, priced per visit.
