I wanted to thank E.L.J. very much for their help. In the photo is how in front of my house gets on a normal day of heavy rain and with the potential of more this weekend we needed to be proactive and get sandbags to help stop the water from getting deeper into our foundation as it’s just 10 feet from the street to my house. My husband is away working and I have severe scoliosis and it was taking me over an hour to just get 10 bags done (which was fine as I needed to take time and breaks) and the owner came up when he noticed and called upon one of his crew named Lee. He was overly helpful even though i only had 5 bags left, very polite, eager to help in anyway. If I ever need to hire a company like E.L.J for any work they offer they would be my first choice and I will be sure to share my experience with others. I have to add that when I first called I spoke with the owners daughter when I asked about needing this and right away she said absolutely and they will help as well, once arrived I was greeted by the wife/mother and the crew of beautiful dogs and again she was was very helpful and given it’s not the typical way they sell their materials she was extremely generous in pricing and it truly helped. This is how family own businesses stay in business by helping people in their own community in the good and bad times!

Need some" loam"? Come and get mine for free. Bring a jack hammer, pick axe and TNT. Below are the ACTUAL analysis results derived from a sample of a 3 yard delivery of "loam" from ELJ. The experts at the University of Maine soil lab recommended that I add 1 full yard of compost to the 3 yards of "loam" ELJ delivered (if I actually wanted a chance of GROWING something). When I shoveled into the pile of ELJ "loam" it sounded like digging into a gravel pit. When my son visited and saw the "loam" he wondered what my construction project was. ( I told him it was a monument to greed and ineptitude) When I later asked a landscaper fixing a lawn around the corner whether he was using ELJ "loam" he said no, their "loam" was "****". It would be nice if their "loam "was like "****". Maybe I could actually grow something in it.

This company dumped 2 yards of the WRONG material in my driveway 4 months ago and STILL haven't come to pick up THEIR mistake! Wasted out entire Saturday this weekend stating they were coming but NEVER CAME AND NEVER CALLED. Then told me husband today that we are NOT A PRIORITY over their high dollar contracts. FIXING THE MAJOR ERROR SHOULD BE PRIORITY! DONT USE THIS COMPANY THEY HAVE ZERO PROFESSIONALISM OR CUSTOMER SERVICE!

Only hire these guys if you want your job to take forever. There were multiple days each week where no one showed up for work. Plenty of clear weather, yet one week no one showed up for work for six days straight! They parked excess equipment on my property, trashed my driveway and yard, failed to do a good clean up when finished, and took over thirty days to pour a concrete pad and footings for a 10' X 20' extension. They left holes in my existing garage floor, and failed to properly seal the concrete footing they cut through. The rear section of the "new" garage required 10-15 bags of floor leveling compound due to an excessive low spot in the concrete they failed to correct.They seemed to require an awful lot of direction from my general contractor in order to get the job done, they put him several weeks behind schedule, as he finished/corrected much of their work. If masonry is their "specialty"......hire someone else.

By far one of the best construction company’s around. Chris- the owner couldn’t be more helpful and knowledgeable in regards to any job big or small. He’s been a huge help during my last new construction build.I would rate this company 10 stars if it was possible!

Made Me shovel my car out, after my car being plowed in by his company and said for me to crawl in the passenger side that there is nothing he can do about it. I have 4 herniated disks and he made me shovel my car out. could have plowed in different direction, not towards my car. Have pictures so damage better not have been done.
