Joe at the front desk is helpful and they are willing to work with the amateur client. I wish I was a knowledgeable mason, but they are willing to overlook that fact.

Have been there a couple of times and been happy with the service-they loaded my trailer one time and blocks in my car the other time. Heading back soon for more gravel.

This company will not do the right and ethical thing.so beware of doing business with them. One of their cement trucks threw stones up on Route 50 on the Narrows Bridge and damaged my windshield. They denied and responsibility for it. I was there and experienced it but they said it didn't happen. BEWARE!

Couldn't ask for nicer folks. Quick delivery on materials and drivers who can drop the product on a dime.

Delivery is incredibly over priced! Owner did not disclose all details up front which made things very hectic. I would not recommend using this company if you have limited knowledge to the concrete/rock industry.

I purchased concrete pads for my grill. They look great and the people at the office were helpful and knowledgeable. I also appreciated that they loaded the blocks for me.

Very unhappy. I purchased some sand yesterday and when they loaded my rear window was scraped. I went to talk with them-very civily and they determined that they cannot fathom how the scrape could have been made by their equipment. All I know is that it wasn't there before I got the sand. Must have gremlins. Right down the center of my rear window scraped into the glass, that took some pressure to do that. It's ok, next time i need arena sand or dust I will find another company.
