KUDZU REVIEWS

Outdoor fireplace and patio

Scott and his team were excellent. We love our new outdoor fireplace and patio! Scott

himself was very knowledgeable and professional. Our project was completed on time and on budget. We couldn't be more pleased with the end result.

Dependable and Professional

Our second time working with Arnold Masonry. Without fail, they were timely,

professional, and dependable. The hardscape previously done in our front yard matched

our backyard perfectly. Scott pointed out helpful solutions to potential problems, and his

crew was efficient and tidy. We wouldn't hesitate to work with them again.. We had a

custom patio and chimney along with decorative walls and lighting built by Arnold

Masonry and Landscape. The chimney is really great and looks just like we hoped it

would! The patio is the perfect size and shape to enjoy our new stunning chimney. It feels

like a piece of art in the yard. It is 90+ every day in Georgia right now but we are still

burning fires at least twice a week. The project was completed in less time than we were

told and they cleaned up after themselves! I am going to use Arnold for future

hardscaping and masonry needs and would recommend them to anyone looking to do

the same.

Beautiful work and personalized service

From our first meeting with Scott everything was handled very professionally and

promptly. Scott guided us to his suppliers so that we could pick out the exact type of

blue stone and brick that was going to be used in our project. Even the suppliers had

wonderful comments about Scott and his team. Scott's design sense was also very good

and he gave us exact drawings of the fireplace. He made sure we knew about each detail

and involved us in the design process. Every day the crew arrived on time. They were

incredible craftsmen and even my children marveled at how they cut and placed each

stone exactly where it was supposed to fit into the large patio. The crew was very polite

and also left the work site clean at the end of each day. The entire project was completed

in 5 days. The time management was excellent. Upon completion Scott reviewed the

work and made sure our expectations had been met. He is very customer oriented and I

cannot say enough good things about his team. We love our new outdoor living space

and look forward to using it all the time. I would highly recommend Arnold Masonry and

Landscape to anyone looking for quality workmanship.

Professional and Kind

Scott and his crew were easy to work with and very professional. Scott created an outdoor living area with fireplace to replace our old, run down patio. His crew were so nice throughout the project. We are so happy with how it has turned out and highly recommend this company. Thank you, Scott!

Exceptional Craftsmanship

We came across Arnold Masonry online and are so glad we did. We met with Scott regarding upgrades to our concrete patio. After talking with him, we decided to expand the patio and cover it with flagstone as well as install a beautiful stone fireplace. His crew worked quickly and kept the job site very neat and orderly. The finished project exceed our expectations. We are already talking about what other improvements we can make to our backyard and would definitely use Arnold Masonry again!

Fantastic results !!

Scott designed and constructed the perfect outdoor living space - stone patio, wonderful fireplace and a spiral staircase from our deck to the new outdoor living space. We use the space daily and look forward to hosting some great parties. I don't think you can find a company better than Arnold Masonry and Concrete for your construction project. We'll certainly turn to Scott and his team for our future needs.

Beautiful Patio and Walkway

Scott and his crew installed a fantastic looking crab orchard flagstone patio and walkway. The crew was on time every day, very courteous, and worked long hours in some cold wet weather. The layout of our home and small hill behind our home presented a difficult challenge for proper rain runoff. I am pleased to say the patio drains perfectly with absolutely no standing water. The crew moved sections of ornamental fence, repositioned and adjusted two gates, and improved the look of a self installed retaining wall. Scott was very fair with some changes we made during the construction. And without asking them the crew set up our heavy fountain for us. We will definitely use Scott for our future hardscaping projects. Thanks for great looking backyard patio Scott.

Awesome - Awesome - Awesome Craftsmanship!

An awesome company. The first thought that popped into my mind. Scott and his crews are the best in what they do and their “hands on” approach and customer service is top notch. Scott and his foremen were always there for us, whether through phone, email, or in person, to answer all questions and to provide info that we didn’t even ask for. The design approach was great fun and we learned so much. Our project wasn’t as large as many they have done yet it is obvious to us that they did not cut any corners and the workmanship is.....awesome! A couple of stone and brick patios with surrounding walls that included “lattice brick work” to create a very private courtyard with a really neat firepit. They also built some really interesting brick and stone benches and helped us by hanging a wall fountain. Thanks, Scott and company! All of our friends Love our new private party pad. 

Made our dream a reality

We had been looking to do a complete overhaul of our yard but had not found the right company for the job. Scott Arnold and his team came out and shared our vision for what our yard could be and worked with us and our budget to be sure we would be happy with the results. We had the chance to watch some of his workers and were continually impressed by their care of their craft. They worked with us from the first day to the last and made sure we were satisfied at every step. We would recommend Arnold for your next project and we will absolutely have them out if we need more work done.

Guarantees Work!

This is a follow-up to my original review of Arnold Masonry & Concrete. Back in November, Scott and his crew designed and installed an outdoor entertaining area for us. As with any home improvement project, unforeseen issues can arise. Six months after the project was finished, we contacted Scott to go over some of these concerns that we were experiencing with our back patio and water feature. Scott and his crew promptly assessed our concerns, and a few days later Scott scheduled his crew to come over and fix the drainage issue we were having on our patio as well as reline our waterfall (which was leaking due to a rodent eating through the liner). He stands behind his product and workmanship, and I always received follow-up emails after the work was completed. Thanks Scott!

when they were done. I am very satisfied with the quality of the job Arnold Masonry did.

Superb quality and service!

I just can't say enough good things abut this company! What really impressed me about Arnold Masonry (in addition to the quick and responsive service and quality of work) was Scotts' honesty and integrity. His and his crew's professionalism was second to none. The repair work they performed on our chimney following a lightning strike that blew off bricks and left a crack all the way down to the roofline was of such a high quality, I find myself shaking my head as I glimpse that chimney each and every day! We live in a house that is a replica of houses in Williamsburg, VA and was built by craftsmen from that area. I can't tell a difference in the work whatsoever!! WAY TO GO ARNOLD MASONRY! I highly recommend this group!! Gary Kimbrough, 743 Thomas Road, Dallas, GA

Great Job!

Our home is a copy of a house in Williamsburg, VA with many unusual brick features.

Recently lighting hit the chimney and caused major damage. Since three fireplaces

utilize the chimney involved, and the brick work is unusual, I wanted someone who was a

master mason with the years of experience to do the repairs. Scott Arnold fit the bill. He

was always prompt with his return calls, he showed up on time, gave us a very competitive bid and even helped negotiate with the insurance company. Jose and his crew were knowledgeable, efficient and did good work. We are very pleased with the results and would highly recommend Arnold Masonry and Concrete.

Disappointed with Approach; not the work

This is not to review Arnold Masonry and Concrete's work as we did not see their quality.

With the great reviews I expected a better approach and customer focus than I received.

Waited for almost an hour checking every 10 minutes then found a brochure and

business card on the front door even though they had my cellphone. Called the provided

cell and wouldn't come back to discuss the project but would send an estimate. Followed

up on the estimate and they stated that their time and capital spent on the initial visit

when no one was there wasn't a good sign. My time is pretty important and valuable as

well and it is unfortunate that my experience wasn't as others have described.

Second go around as enjoyable!

After the pond and several upgrades to our outdoor living space, we couldn't refuse

adding one of Scott's magnificent outdoor fireplaces. If you are looking for quality work

and consideration for your wants and needs, Arnold Masonry offers that and with such

sincerity. Thanks a million!

Another Satisfied Customer

I discovered Arnold Masonry and Concrete through Kudzu and was impressed with all the positive feedback they had received. After meeting with the owner, Scott, and several other contractors, I decided to hire Arnold Masonry and Concrete to complete the initial phase of my landscaping project. This phase include excavation, grading, and the building of an old style granite block retaining wall. Although the weather was challenging to work around, the communication was good and consistent throughout the project. The Arnold crews were very skilled and have obviously spent many years perfecting their crafts. The quality of work for as good as it gets. I subsequently hired Arnold Masonry and Concrete to pour a large concrete slab as the foundation for the next project phase that will be installing flagstone with stacked stone walls and an outdoor fireplace and kitchen. Again, the quality of their work was high and the communication regarding weather delays was regular. I would hire Arnold Masonry and Concrete again and I would encourage anyone considering a project that involved masonry, concrete, or other services they offer to do the same.

Professional, Great Fast Follow-through, Thank You

Scott and his team were great to work with. Understood what we were looking for, very

flexible in making adjustments, offered great creative suggestions to make the project

look superb. Very fast response to email and phone. In my experience in working with

about a dozen contractors over the past two years on various large projects I would

consider Scott and crew to be one of the best. Maybe not the the lowest price, but trustworthy, delivers above and beyond what is discussed, listens, personal follow-up,

and candid (no bait/switch and/or excuses). Can't expect anything better than this. Will

definitely be calling them for future work. Thanks very much!.

Horrible Customer Service

I called Arnold Masonry and Concrete to get a quote on a job involving the creation of a

new deck, fence, and patio, among other things. After placing two calls to the office (no

return on the first one) and scheduling an appointment for an estimate over a week in

advance, they called less than an hour before my scheduled appointment time to tell me

that they wouldn't be coming because they were usually busy this time of year and I was

outside of their preferred zone. This company lost the opportunity for a $25,000 job

because of this. Oh, and I'm about 2 minutes from downtown Decatur, inside 285. It's not

like I live 2 hours away!

Great Work

Excellent contractor. Kept me informed throughout the project and even did some clean-up work that wasn't included in the contract - above and beyond what I expected. The quality of the work was excellent. We were unhappy with where they ended a concrete

wall, but they came back and fixed it to our satisfaction. They cleaned up after the job

very well, and the workmen were very professional, freindly, and helpful. They were not the cheapest, but I would definitely use them again.

Pool deck replacement & BBQ - Awesome job

Scott did a fantastic job replacing our old sagging concrete pool deck and stamped

concrete patio with a beautiful flagstone deck. He also built a 10ft BBQ which matches

the stacked stone on the back of the house. Second time using Scott on a major job and

couldn't be happier. I will be using him on a landscaping project next.

Best surprise of all? No surprises!

When I decided to replace the driveway and entrance walkway to my home, my friends and co-workers could only share horror stories, not referrals to any contractor they'd ever used, so I turned to Kudzu.com. From a number of seemingly similar companies, I gave the project to Scott Arnold. Scott is the "real deal", the experienced and hands-on owner of this company. He was involved with my project from start to finish, taking the time to listen and make suggestions until I felt comfortable and excited about commencing the work. Scott's crew was as professional as he is, and the work was completed quickly, on budget, and with zero drama. The results are excellent, and I've never had a better experience with a home repair project. I recommend Scott and his company without hesitation. Call him today; you'll be so glad you did!

Could not be more pleased

Scott and his crew did a 1100 sf patio on a steeply sloping lot, requiring some substantial retaining walls. The job was done perfectly. Crew was very professional, on time every day and patient with all my questions. Work was superb. They even took time to carefully remove existing shrubs and planting them on the side for later use and went the extra mile to reroute new drains and regrade slopes to keep water away from the house. Will absolutely recommend Scott and will use him again on the next project.

Scott Made It Painless

We had a small stone patio installed by Scott and his team. All work was completed on schedule and to spec. Scott was easy to reach and on time for what few appointments we had and was helpfuly in designing the final plan. Since we live in a cluster home community I was concerned about possible impact on the neighbors yard which is only a few feet away. They were able to work in the small confined space with barely a trace of any activity. I could not even figure out where the concrete truck had been parked. We're now enjoying our new patio thanks to Soctt and his crew. Great work and very professional.

Simply Beautiful!

My husband and I had the privilege of using Arnold Masonry and Concrete to construct a

new patio and retaining walls and a new driveway with pavers and stone. This was a

large project to us and we were a bit nervous having so much done around our home, but,

we were so pleasantly surprised at the outstanding work that Scott and his crews do.

They went way beyond what was necessary and were always on top of things. The work

is gorgeous and they are neat and VERY professional. We recommend them hands down to all.

Complete satisfaction

We recently had the opportunity to work with Arnold Masonry and Concrete as we completely renovated the landscaping in the front of our house. The work and sense of professionalism was outstanding. In a time when customer service seems to be disintegrating, Scott Arnold demonstrated that the philosophy is not lost. We were looking for a creative solution that would create a clean and manageable...yet affordable...solution to edging our gardens. Scott’s recommendation of a stone curbing boarder truly turned out to be the perfect solution. If you are considering any masonry projects, I would highly recommend contacting Scott prior to making any contractor decisions. I am confident that you will experience the same positive experience that we had. In fact, we are looking forward to initiating some additional work with him and his company early next year. -Patrick K.

Great Guy, Great Company!

Arnold Masonry installed a stone fence around our neighborhood pool a couple of years

ago. They did an incredible job then so I thought I would contact Scott to put in a stone patio in my own backyard. Once again, they performed flawlessly. Friends have used other contractors for similar projects but each one had some issue - didn't show up on time, left a mess, took too long, etc... You can't go wrong with Scott; does what he says he is going to do and for the price he quotes plus the craftsmanship is outstanding! Thanks!!

Quite the company...

I was quite surprised at just how much this company can do. I checked into other companies and found they only did one or two types of masonry,concrete and other facets of construction. Arnold Masonry is definitely the company for masonry and concrete but they really pulled our huge design together with the utmost professionalism and ability. We would recommend them to everyone.

Our hero!

We contacted Scott asking if he'd be interested repairing a fireplace built incorrectly by another contractor as it would not draw. We also needed him to replace poorly built walls around the garden beds surrounding our pool. Scott showed up within 48 hours, gave us a quote and finished construction within three weeks. Our task was not easy, but Scott, tackled the problem with intelligent solutions. Our fireplace had previously been built by another company who apparently had no knowledge of the working components of a fireplace. This company no longer had a way the remedy problems they created so chose to walk away. Scott’s foreman, Jose, and crew had to come in and rip out the entire front our fireplace without the structure collapsing. Not only did it not collapse, they rebuilt the fireplace, added a smoke chamber, and finished the opening to make it look better than it had before. The walls, around the garden beds, had to be ripped out and be built without debris getting into the pool. The walls were built exactly as I has expected, to perfection. Most important, the crew spoke and/or understood English, they never left a mess and treated our property as though it was theirs. We will use Arnold Masonry again and recommend them.

Such a difference.

Most of all, I want you to know that Scott Arnold is one of the most professional and responsive  contractors we have ever worked with, and this sets him apart from the rest. His knowledge of the business was immediately apparent, and the quality of his work was evident throughout the installation. We are looking forward to recommending him to the neighborhood and showing off his work!

Synthetic stone fireplace

Wow!...That is all my husband and I could say once Arnold Masonry finished a huge

interior chimney facade using a gorgeous Owens Corning synthetic stone, Scott was so

helpful and even directed us to where to go so we could view all these types of stone at

once. The end result is amazing and has transformed our room and home! We highly

recommend Arnold Masonry for their knowledge and artisanship and above all-

professionalism.

It's nice to see that there are still owners of construction companies who have actually

needed. Great company and owner. They really are on top of it all!

We recently had the privelege of having Arnold Masonry construct a complete backyard hardscape project including patios,a chimney, some retaining walls and a pool house renovation. We cannot emphasize how beautiful and artistic it all turned out as well as how professional this company is.

Great job on my patio

I had them out to install a 400 sq ft patio under my second floor deck. They helped me pick the bricks and did a great job managing a difficult grade with a small wall. They dealt with water drainage and relocating irrigation to make room. Scott was very professional and responsive. The crew that did the job showed up on time and did great work. I highly recommend them.

Scott was very helpful in helping me plan our outdoor kitchen and gave me several great

suggestions and material options. His team was very professional, moved very fast, and

cleaned up perfectly! They were done in under 2 weeks. We love our new outdoor kitchen

projects in our yard!

Very happy - Awesome craftsmanship!

We were looking at three companies to improve our outdoor living space. We decided to go with ARNOLD Masonry and Landscape, and glad we did. From the very beginning of

the project, Scott did a terrific job providing us with ongoing updates on status and next

steps. They put together a couple of recommendations and different stone options which were all beautiful. We decided to go with a 325 sf flagstone patio with a 6f built in BBQ

area. Scott and team are passionate about what they do and are true artists that will not compromise on quality. A lot of companies can put in a flagstone patio but a true mason

looks at the big picture matching colors, shapes, transitions and flow of the patio as part

of the backyard and that's what Scott and team do really well. We had the same crew

working onsite for the entire duration of the project. Each member was very friendly and

careful around our plants. They finished the project on time and within agreed on budget

with no surprises but most importantly, they delivered way beyond our expectations. We

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE our new patio and recommend Scott and his team without hesitation!

Amazing Contractor and Company!

A complete backyard renovation which included demolition of existing retaining walls, overgrown landscape, and a tile patio. Construction included significantly expanding the backyard greenspace area and hardscaping, the addition of a pavilion, a built in kitchen, a separate fire pit area, as well as irrigation and night lighting.

Fantastic Backyard Renovation

We've been in our home (roughly 3000 sq ft. home on 1/3 arce) for eight years, and

decided this past November that we would do our first ever backyard renovation. We

decided to go with ARNOLD Masonry and Concrete because of their excellent service

record and because they were a one stop shop for all the work we wanted done. Our

renovation included the following improvements: the construction of new Crab Orchard flagstone patio, the construction and staining of a 12' x 12' x 8' pergola, the installation of a 5' x 8' in-ground gardening area lined with stone, the construction of a cedar shadowbox fence to enclose the backyard, and new landscaping along the sides and back of the home. From start to finish, Scott Arnold (owner) was very responsive to my emails and questions; he listened to what I wanted done, and provided opinion and input that was very helpful in shaping the design. He gave me a clear and detailed contract, with turnkey pricing so that I knew exactly how much I'd be spending up-front. The work crews and subcontractors who did the work on my home were on time, hard-working, and polite. Scott knew what was happening with my project at all times, and came out several times to make sure that the work was going according to plan. The only delays that we had were the result of bad weather. I am very happy with the experience, and the results are fantastic! My backyard looks great

Very Happy

My husband and I had been searching for a company to renovate our basement for over a year. What we envisioned was not the typical sheetrock and carpet basement. We met with Scott and went through our ideas along with photos and looked through Arnold Masonry’s portfolios. We desired a richer feel which involved brick and stone and Travertine,etc, as well as specific woods and a wine cellar. A bar and a mural were added with textured walls as well. An amazing transformation which surpassed our original thoughts and vision. Arnold Masonry was not the least expensive yet we have found that you really cannot compare pricing to final product in that business. Without a doubt, we made the best choice and highly recommend them. Thanks again, look forward to doing business in the future.

Arnold Masonry and Concrete - Real Professionals

Our home project evolved over 3 years. The project entailed converting a concrete patio to a “high end” stone patio, significant masonry work including multiple walls, fire pit and water feature. During that time we interviewed numerous contractors, landscapers and hardscape artists. But, it was not until we met Scott Arnold, who is a master mason, that we felt confident enough to invest in our project. Mr Arnold was the consummate professional, who demonstrated his customer centric philosophy by developing, augmenting and understanding the vision of our project. Throughout the project, his team of professionals was always prompt, courteous and above all competent. The project was completed on schedule and on budget. This is not to say that Scott’s desire for perfection at times seemed like it would cause delays. On one occasion, Scott was dissatisfied with a minor detail of the project. To stay on schedule, Scott decided to bring his crew in on Saturday to address the situation. It was promptly resolved. What a perfectionist! A hard to find trait in today’s world. Truly, a breath of fresh air. We are extremely happy with the planning, execution and appearance of our project. We waited 3 years and must say, it was well worth it. Thank you Scott for your creativity, diligence and execution. Joe and Regina

Helping Hand

I called Arnold Masonary because of the great referrals on Kudzu.com and although my job was actually to small for Scott and his team, Scott took the time to listen to my needs talk through some solutions and give a great referral. Even better was once I called the referral Micah Cuttle immediately responded with a same day response. I didn't get the chance to work with Scott and his team but know I would in the future. Even though he did not have to listen or help, he did and that is rare indeed today. Thank you Scott!

Finished work shows- not professional quality

Scott is a nice guy. Explained why the stones started coming up weeks after installation. WE UNDERSTAND although our other patio that is 6 years old never did. He had his crew (which are NOT professional) come out to regrout, the last time was his shot at making all the grout match. We have FACTUAL pictures that show the work. We contacted him after Angie's List asked for our input and have not heard a word. Again nice guy but the outcome was less than professional and not acceptable. We have different color grout ALL over our patio, which our guests note right away. Small stones to fill a whole with light grout, grout with what looks like DIRT in it, and darker grout. Again, if I could attach pictures I would as they ARE THE FACTS.

Best Design and Construction Firm We've Ever Used!

We are so impressed with Scott's professionalism, reliability and creativity.Hands on during the entire project. Scott's design included a complete renovation of our old back deck measuring 45' x 14'. One end measuring 14' x 18' was transformed into a covered open air room complete w/ gorgeous stone columns and arches. One wall is solid stone w/candle niches and a beautiful fireplace. Vaulted ceiling with pine. Electrical, cable, gas were run and Scott even installed TV above the fireplace. The new elevated patio is 11' off the ground so he came up with a frame design to handle the weight and used synthetic stone instead of heavy real stone. The stone looks so amazingly real! The floor is finished in a stunning 16" x 24" Kund Slate. They also constructed stone columns along the outside with decorative steel railing in black and an impressive stone built-in grill. Scott's insistence on black spiral stairs was perfect! The underside of the elevated patio w/ can lights, fans and a wood ceiling. The ground level patio is finished in flagstone.We now have a completely finished ground level outdoor living area also. They painted the exterior of the house and installed new gutters. Scott recommended going with deep bronze gutters,shutters, doors and columns underneath to match. What a transformation! Landscaping is next on the list. We are so pleased with the end result- it could be featured in Architectural Digest! We highly recommend Scott and his firm! Thank you Scott and AM&C!

outstanding craftsmanship, outstanding service

Let me start by saying that I have worked with a number subcontractors and have extremely high standards and expectations. I had a great experience with Arnold masonry and concrete. My project involved dealing with a difficult erosion problem and creating a bluestone walkway and patio. Micah came up with a very attractive and creative solution. He was accessible throughout the entire process and was very attentive to my concerns. I would definitely use this company again, and I highly recommend them to others looking for top quality in stonework.

Good job by Arnold

Arnold started with replacing a stone facade on the house. They did a great job so we decided to go on to the drive way and new sidewalk. Might as well get all our messes out of the way at once. Arnold does a great job and is very professional.

Great New Yard!!

Scott was awesome with his ideas and gave me a product that I didn't think we could even do in my yard. Dennis was phenominal with the landscaping and plumbing details. I would highly recommend them. Very friendly and great communication throughout the

process. Thanks!

Good Job, on time, within budget

Scott and team did a great job. They were on time and worked with me on the budget

even though it rained much of the time which set them back. I got several quotes and

they were above the middle, but Scott worked with the job to get the price down and still

achieve what we wanted. The quality was good and they cleaned up after done.

Best Concrete Company In Town

Mine was a large tear up and repour job. The parking slab was 45 ft.by 48 ft., the drive way was 95 ft. long and the walkway was 76 ft. long. The new parking slab, driveway and walkway are all perfect. They sloped the driveway and the parking slab so that all the rain water now drains away fron the house. These guys did an outstanding job and I am totally satisfied.

Can't say enough good things about Arnold Masonry!

What an incredible job Arnold Masonry and Concrete did replacing our driveway. Scott Arnold, the owner, was one of the most professional contractors I have ever dealt with. Not only was his price the best of the bids received but Scott conducted himself with the utmost professionalism, unlike the others who gave us bids. I have no time or patience for anyone who wastes my time badmouthing the competition as the others did. Even if Scott's price had come in higher than the other, I would have gone with him for that reason alone. To my pleasant surprise, Scott's price was quite a bit lower so I won all the way around. Oh yeah, the driveway! It was done on time with no hidden cost & looks awesome. We will definitely use him again & have already passed his name on to others. One of the best experiences I have ever had dealing with major repairs to our home.

Reliable and efficient

Followed thru on all promises. Prompt, quality

and a care to the work performed. Explained in detail what was to be done. Would definitely use again if needed.

Quality, Reliable Work

Arnold Masonry recently did some work on our home. The quote was competitve, the quality excellent. They always showed up when they said the would and kept the work area extremely neat. The job was done to our complete satisfaction. We never had trouble getting in touch with them or problems with them not returning calls. We would recommend them to anyone and have them do additional work for us.

Always Pleased

We have used Scott Arnold for three projects: an outdoor kitchen, fireplace and front stoop. All three turned out better than advertised. The fieldstone work is of the highest quality. The bluestone on the kitchen and stoop is beautiful. Scott is the consummate professional. He is always on time, courteous, and his crews are neat. Nothing is worse than a contractor who leaves your yard in a mess after the job is finished. For those who have a general idea of what they want Scott’s keen eye for color, texture and balance transforms an ordinary project into an extraordinary addition to your home. While, Scott might disagree, I think the best thing I can say is that he is willing to stand behind his work. We did have one small problem with one of the projects. Within days of my call the issue was resolved. While any company can do a good job, Arnold Masonry does a great job and does not disappear if there is a problem.

driveway expansion

I had a driveway expansion with retaining wall that required considerable grading and

planning. Scott helped me plan the best solution and then did an excellent job. The job

moved quickly and Scott kept me informed throughout the project. I would definitely use

them again.

Great Work

Scott and his crew where great. They showed up on time, did great work, and very professional. I will use them again in future projects.

Beautiful job done quickly

They replaced a wood tie retaining wall with a brick wall matching our house. All aspects

of the job were outstanding and the workers were friendly and courteous. Scot kept us

up to date on the timing of each step. I would highly recommend them.

Absolute Perfection

Scott helped take a "do it yourself" project to pure perfection. His team applied Brown

Crab Orchard Rock to the face and top of a concrete retaining wall (that's the do it

yourself part) and made a terrible mess an absolute beautiful hardscape focal point of

our backyard. Highly Recommend is not enough for this fantastic company. If I could, I

would easily give 10 stars for the quality, professionalism and overall ability of Scott and

his team. If you are in need of his type of service, DON'T try anyone else, he is the best.

Thanks Scott - the yard looks amazing.

Fabulous all around!

I am so happy with my decision of going with Arnold masonry and Concrete as well as all

the work they performed. They rebuilt my whole front stoop and steps and built a

beautiful flagstone sidewalk and patio.Being a single woman I am very leary of contractors but Scott was so professional and put my worries at ease. The crews are all friendly and do gorgeous work. I am very happy all around and will use Scott and his company for all my future projects.

Sold!

I have to hand it to Scott and his company! The website said it all and Scott sold it. This guy knows his construction!..and the best thing is we had our house on the market for a year,decided to take the leap in some beautiful hardscaping/patios/fireplace...and it sold our house! We are very happy and satisfied and owe a lot to Arnold Masonry and Concrete.

Our experience with Arnold Masonry has been nothing but positive. Scott came out and

was extremely courteous and businesslike.The crews are all very pleasant and truly are the best at their trades. The overall concrete and landscaping as well as hardscape that was  done is gorgeous and we recommend Arnold masonry to all who seek professionalism as well as quality and ability!

Very unhappy after big dollars

I read all the great reviews and after meeting Scott, who told me he had all this great experience, I hired him to re- build a driveway, tear down and build a new back yard deck and install a stone patio. He told me they would be done in 2 weeks. It took 6 weeks. The only time I saw Scott was when he came out to pick up money. His crews were nice, but the driveway bobcat operator did damage to my front porch, tried to cover it up and it has never been repaired. The driveway has serious drainage issues now, never did before. Scott reminded me that the small print in his agreement/contract states they are not responsible to replace no "sod/grass/landscape repair." The deck job was well-done and I am happy with it, although if you look at the entire job for what was paid, anyone would feel this was a second rate job (other than the deck). The lower patio was 7 inches lower than I expected so we had to make a last minute change to put in steps that were not part of the original agreement. For the amount of money I paid, I expected a first class, superior job and a clean-up at the end (which is not done). Instead, I feel I should have held off the final check. Perhaps that would have gotten more end of project action.

Super Guys!

This company knows their "stuff"! I did a lot of research on different companies and found this one to have the longest business record. I also found the owner, Scott, to be a master mason himself! Not only did Scott design an amazing backyard project for us but he took the time to explain it all to us. He submitted a detailed quote(something the other did not) and also described every aspect of the final design as well as the steps and structural needs. I highly recommend these guys 110% and will use them with our future projects.

Magnificent project!

I recently hired Arnold Masonry to renovate my property including hardscaping/walls/patio/firepit/and an outdoor kitchen. Scott's ability to design is magnificent! I could not visualize very well yet all he assured me of came to fruition and the final product far surpassed what I even felt this would all look like. This is a wonderful company and I recommend them as #1!

The Best!

I have dealt with many contractors in my day but Scott and his guys are the best. Extremely reliable and friendly and they really can transform a drab piece of property into a gorgeous oasis. I was referred to them by others but read through many reviews of them online and am thoroughly impressed! As far as I'm concerned, these are your guys!

Best Mason Around!

We had the pleasure of working with Scott Arnold and Arnold Masonry. He had been referred to us by Earth Products. Scott and his team built a masonry grill, installed a ballastrade system, replaced our pool coping with custom limestone, and laid approximately a 2200 square feet travertime marble patio

Driveway&Walkway

We hired this company to do a new driveway, walkway and retaining wall that would be in

keeping with the European style of our home. Not only did Scott help us design what we

wanted, but he personally saw to it that everything went along as planned and it

exceeded our expectations by far! We will definitely use them in our future endeavors.

Amazing pond

We recently hired Arnold Masonry and Tile to take on a nice sized pond, stream, and waterfall project. We had received 3 bids on this project which were somewhat confusing since different companies see things differently as well as the type of equipment they recommend. Scott uses on Aquascape products and these were more costly but with a lot of research I now see why he would not sway. Our pond, etc. is totally breath taking

but this equipment cleans it like a pool and Scott even showed us how to us biologically

safe chemicals (like live enzymes) to eat all the algae,etc. Our water is as clear as tap water and our Koi love it. We are very pleased we went with this company and they really go the extra mile in pleasing as well as they REALLY know their business.

Very Professional

I recently had the pleasure to use Arnold Masonry for an exterior kitchen/ patio/ chimney/ and a gorgeous pond and waterfall. I knew I wanted to use this company after seeing their website as well as visiting Earth Products and hearing how professional they were. Well, they are extremely professional and are true artisans. Scott truly stands behind all his company does and I find that a rare thing these days. I do recommend this company completely.

Excellent service throughout

We employed Arnold Masonry in June 2007 and were very pleased with the results. We called several masonry contractors when we decided to redo our patio, a fairly large project. We were most impressed with Scott Arnold of Arnold Masonry. He was not only businesslike and professional but also seemed to understand the aesthetics of the project; we felt he had the same vision we did. He sent us a carefully detailed estimate of the costs, which considering the size of the project seemed reasonable. His crew began promptly and were most hard-working. They would usually arrive at about 8 in the morning and would still be working at 6, in spite of very hot temperatures. Any concerns or questions we had were addressed quickly. Everyone was co-operative and courteous. The finished product is most attractive. It was a pleasure working with Scott and his crew. We would be glad to recommend Arnold Masonry to anyone considering contractors of this type.

Outstanding Company

Arnold Masonry & Tile did a phenomenal job in creating a beautiful outdoor dream kitchen/entertainment area...complete with gorgeous landscaping! The results and the time frame in which it was completed exceeded our expectations. Mr. Arnold is not only a pleasure to work with, but a master in his profession. We have recommended them to several of our friends interested in similar projects for their homes.

Professional from Start to Finish!!!!

My wife and I were putting in a pool with decking and an outside living area. We were very apprehensive taking on a project of this magnitude, but we were able to put the entire project in the hands of Arnold Masonry and Tile and they were professional and honest with us throughout the entire project. We were relieved to finally find a company who we could trust. They definitely lived up to their reputation!

Great Service

I was very pleased with both the quality of work and the customer service provided by

Arnold Masonry and Tile. Scott was a true professional and easily accessible when we

needed to speak to him. Our project necessitated 3 different contractors working

together, to achieve the desired affect. Arnold M&T did their part to make it a success.

most professional contractor

We had our entire pool decking replaced with Italian travertine tile. Due to the beauty of phase 1, I was able to convince my husband to begin phase 2, and now we are having a built-in grill and lights added to our back area. We feel that we are living in a resort. Mr. Arnold is the most professional, knowledgable person that we have encountered in this industry. He calls, shows up on time, and follows through with his commitments.
