VENDOR RAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-- Now with working pictures!!!!!
I cannot begin to say enough about Above All Masonry Design. We have been waiting to have our front steps,walkway and flower beds done since we bought the house. My unhandy husband has been promising me since last April that he would do them. Needless to say we sat looking like the house under construction since April. Stephen and his crew in one day gave me the curb appeal that this house desperately needed.
I am not able to envision finished things ahead of time even with computer models and pictures. I need to see and feel. Stephen came and helped us pick out the perfect Cambridge pavers (brick). He told us how our walkway should flow for best look (which is not the way it was set up). He also said he could do the landscape design of our new flower beds. He was talking about all different kinds of plants, trees and rocks. Frankie and I were  confused and not sure. He told us the names so we could look them up on the internet, he showed us pictures and he even gave us his home address so we could drive past his house and see what he had done to his house.
Well I left for work and left my under construction house. I came home to a complete house. It looks incredible!!! He put in different bushes, a Japanese maple (my favorite!!!) some rose bushes that provide cover and some day lillies. They mulched the flower beds and laid the rocks out. It looks incredible.
I just can't get over the difference. I will post pictures of every thing once I get the sand up.
If anyone is ever looking I highly recommend them. They showed up when they said they did more than they said they would it is just incredible!!

Yes they did the landscaping and picked out the plants for us. We had no clue what would look nice and what we needed.
