1200 sq ft. driveway, walkway, doorway steps

This project was completed in August 2012 (apologies for the delay). I dealt with Jeremy who was friendly and honest and easy to work with. He made recommendations for our project and we decided to complete the driveway/walkway/retaining wall using Oaks Ridgefield Plus.

It rained on day 1 but they were able to excavate everything in preps for the interlocking the next day. They completed the project a lot faster than I had expected - it took basically 2.5 days (would have been even faster if it didn't rain). Ofer was around when they were finishing up, and even took the liberty to reseed the edges where grass was damaged.

I was absolutely THRILLED with the final product, until I turned on my irrigation system. It was obvious damage was done when they dug out the areas around the driveway. Water was coming up from underneath the pavers and gushing out the end of the driveway. I contacted Jeremy immediately, and he sent his irrigation guy 2 days later. The irrigation person had to dig out some of the pavers to fix the problem, so the team had to come back to patch it up.

The following day when I returned home, I was so upset with what they "fixed". The beautiful driveway was destroyed with the awful patch work they did to fix up the damaged areas. One paver was obviously cracked, another was raised and not even with the rest of the pavers, one paver at the end of the driveway wasn't even the same material - it was a different colour! I couldn't believe this was their work because they did such an amazing job 3 days earlier. I emailed Jeremy and Ofer and they told me they would send someone to fix again in a few days.

We were away for 3 weeks following this fiasco, and we were happy that it was fixed when we returned. However, we noticed the polymer around one of the new pavers never set, making us think it wasn't polymer they put in. I emailed Ofer again and he said he would send someone right away. Few days after, I could still stick a key into the "polymer", and then I just stopped checking. I haven't thought about it all winter and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my key isn't going to sink right in when I check it once the snow melts.

Overall, the driveway is beautiful. It's definitely not as perfect as pre-damage, since the patched areas are still not 100% (but only my husband and I know it's there). I would still recommend Land-Con (and I have), but what makes a good contractor a great contractor is how well they communicate and how they deal with problems if and when they arise. I hope this review will help these guys deal with problems with more care in the future.

Walkway and Stone Steps

Hired Lan-Con in 2011 to replace our concrete steps and walkway (on a 65 yr. old home). They had squeezed us in on an already busy summer for them and they showed up on the scheduled date. They gave us great guidance on pricing and where we could save some costs. They don't do concrete work or iron railings but sub out this work and all their subs were professional and friendly. When minor mistakes happened, they sent over supervisors quickly and dealing with Ofer was easy and he took all responsibility to make sure things were done right. It was a pleasure working with them and they did exactly what they said they would do and came in on time and on budget. Follow-up was great.

Landscaping/Interlocking

There are not enough words to express how impressed we are with Land-Con Ltd. We had nothing but excellent service from the moment we met to get a quote to the moment of the completion of the job. Land-Con Ltd. shows true professionalism in all that they do. We had a front porch redone, coping placed on our garden retaining wall, and two walkways completed on either side of our house. The crew of Land-Con Ltd. always arrived on time, and worked super hard to complete the tasks at hand. We especially commend, Matt, the crew's foreman. He not only is in charge of the tasks, but he jumps right in and works the hardest out of anybody we have ever seen. He has such expertise in what he does, and ensures that the job is completed to perfection, showing the utmost attention to detail. We have such high regard for Land-Con Ltd., and we will always do business with them in the future, as well as refer our family and friends to this wonderful company. Thank you Ofer, Matt and the rest of the crew from Land-Con Ltd. for such a fantastic job, and for putting such a huge smile on our faces!

interlocking front nad backyard, asphalt driveway and landscaping

I researched quite a bit of interlocking, landscaping companies and found Land-con to have quite good reviews. I spoke to Ofer who had given me a quote on this project. Very please with with their work. Completed on time . When some minor problems arose, they were back in no time to fix it. Ofer and his crew were great. They cleaned up after the work was done as well. I highly recommend this Company.

New driveway, front porch, backyard patio

Our contract was with Ofer (one of the partners) , and it was a great work experience!
They started on time, completed within 3 days working extended shifts. At each stage of the work, Ofer was showing up personally at the site, fully controling the job done by the workers, and also taking into consideration all our comments. There was no single feedback question that remained unanswered.
And there was a good cleanup of the site done after finishing work
So, overall very smooth and pleasant experience (which is kind of rare case in construction business).

We are happy to recommend LandCon to anyone .

Front porch and walkway

We had our front porch and adjoining walkway done by Land-Con and are very pleased with the result. Although this was a relatively small job we were treated as a valued customer. Work was done as scheduled, workers were all introduced and courteous, area was well cleaned after completion, and looked great. The only complaint is that I wish they hadn't used our lawn as a cutting surface for the stones which killed off a large patch of grass.

small front entrance

We had a small front entrance redone this past May using a Techo-bloc product. After getting several quotes over the past year, we settled on Land-con because they were in line with other quotes, had a good portfolio, offered up their certificates and seemed professional. They started the job a couple of weeks early, which was a bonus, and desgined a nice layout. There were several small issuses with the installation that had to be corrected. Unfortunately, the sand used to fill the joints never set up properly. Offer came by in mid July to assess the problem, and at that time told us their company no longer used the sand product used on our entrance because it didn't work. That same day, Offer topped up the joints with a different sand product. This too didn't set up properly. Offer came around again close to late August and this time power sprayed what he could out of the joints and refilled again. This too has never set up properly in many places, and we continue to see it crumble and wash aways with each rainfall and each time the front is sprayed down. It has never hardened and we can literally scoop the sand from the joints as it resembles beach sand. We were sweeping dirt off the front walk this week, and could sweep the sand right out of the joints. We contacted Offer and Jeremy in October and let them know there was still a probem. I was told then by Offer, that he would confer with Techobloc, and his partner Jeremy. We have not heard from the company since, despite two follow up emails.
We can't say this is professional, or follows their own warranty they gave us at the end of their job. Most likely in the spring, we will have another company come in and try and fix the problem.
We won't use this company again, and won't be referring them.
