Reviews of Davies Contracting (Contractor)

Laura Duggan

When our perimeter drains failed this Spring, we hired Davies to complete the job. The crew was impressive! The big dirty job was done effectively, quickly and the quote was competitive! We would highly recommend Davies Contracting and will use their services again if ever in need. (And Larry's dog Charlie is adorable...)

Hired Davies Contracting to excavate, form and pour a tricky concrete patio with steps. They made some helpful design suggestions and were very fair pricing the changes I asked for. Extremely happy with the end results. Thanks, Larry, Tom and crew!

Davies contracting has made me a very nice concrete parking area. They stuck to their quote and got the job done quickly. The owner and employees are hard workers, thank you to all! K

Inconsiderate workers. Parked a dump truck in front of my house, blocking the garbage. No pick up this week.

Davies Contracting helped redo the steps of my front door along with adding a drainage basin (I think that’s what it’s called?). They were extremely helpful, professional and kind. They knew I was a bit tight on schedule and they managed to come earlier than scheduled and the finished work looks amazing! I fully recommend them if anyone wants the cement work done, and I contacted them on a drainage issue as well and they were also very helpful and knowledgeable. I will definitely use them again if I need anything else in the future!

Pros: Larry Davies stuck to quote; he’s got a great team of really nice, dedicated, hardworking guys; did a great job setting the catch basin and swaling the drainage area at south end of driveway; partnered with a fantastic asphalt company; his concrete guy did a super job with the pour and finishing the concrete pad for the new garden shed. Cons: while “driving” the bobcat Larry demolished part of the southern fence, struck and damaged a second small fence to the west, and dropped a large chunk of old asphalt on the eastern fence. The 3 fences required significant repair afterwards. I have witnessed excavator operators doing demolitions and excavations with incredibly fine precision and no collateral damage. Let’s just politely say Larry is 100% not one of those operators. Also, the new asphalt on the northern end of the driveway is sinking, the butt joint was perfect when the asphalt company finished but now it’s clearly not lined up. We didn’t park on it for two months after and when we do park or drive on it we never stop at the butt joint. So not enough gravel and not compacted sufficiently, disappointing. Verdict: if you need someone to excavate a wide open area and lay some drainage pipes/ pour some concrete, then get Davies Contracting and you’ll be happy. But if you need careful work done in a confined area and you don’t want 3 damaged or demolished fences and a sinking driveway, maybe think twice (or make sure you bulletproof the contract).

If you could possibly mention to your drivers of large trucks that barrelling down a small side street - Brighton - just off Foul Bay, full speed behind my 8 year old daughter and I on our bikes was terrifying for both of us but mostly her. Then veering to the left of the tree in the middle of the road - going the wrong way was unsafe and there were many pedestrians around. Since I live in the area and knew where he was heading we rode our bikes there. I advised the driver that the speed and proximity to us on our bikes was terrifying. He responded with “oh yeah?!”. These are quiet residential streets where we should feel safe taking our families on bike rides. Please urge your drivers to be mindful and safe. Thank you.

We really appreciated the quick response of Davies Contracting when our water main burst. My plumber was digging by hand and it would of been days before we had water. One call to Davies contracting and they were here within the hour! The small bobcat easily moved around my yard with no damage to my garden☺ honest and friendly guy I would use thier services again.
