AWFUL! Do NOT hire him. Beware: This company is run by Joe Moran who I hired to construct a retaining wall for me in July 2012. He did not finish the job and ran off with $ 7,000 of my money. He did build most of the wall but did not complete it. However, the wall is built so horribly and it is so unsafe that it needs to be torn down! After we had some big problems with the wall we hired a structural engineer to come out and inspect the wall. The engineer was appalled by construction of the wall and said it absolutely needs to be torn down. We had 4 landscaping companies come look at the wall and asked them to give us an estimate on fixing it. ALLFOUR companies said that the wall needs to be torn down and rebuilt. EVERY aspect of the wall was built incorrectly, and the wall will collapse soon!!! this is a big wall, 75 feet long, 22 feet wide and 6 feet tall. TO give you an idea of how much is wrong: it has no gravel behind it for drainage, no landscaping mesh to hold the dirt in so the dirt just leaks out constantly, he used the wrong type of fill dirt, he put in a small footer that is only 3INCHES thick when it should have been 3FEET thick. This guy is horrible and should not be in business! Joe won’t return our phone calls. I would sue him but he won’t fix it correctly and I don’t trust him to do a proper job. Joe changes the name of his company constantly. So Far I’ve seen him use«Armadillo Masonry», «Armadillo Demolition», «Armadillo Services», «JM Masonry», and«Best Price Masonry». However, he usually uses the same name each time«Joe Moran». Please stay far away from this crooked contractor. You can contact me with any questions. There are bad reviews of him online from me and another person that he scammed out of money. If you want to see the reviews google him, his name is Joe Moran and his numbers are 512−247−3191 and his cell is 512−589−1551. Don’t hire any company that uses either of thos phone numbers. However, he may change his phone numbers and he changes company names frequently. But he is easy to spot, he told me he weighs 420 pounds and I believe it. The guy is very very large! So even if he changes his company name and his own name, he can’t change his apprearance easily. Update: So I have never heard from Joe about fixing my wall or making things right. However, after I put reviews on Unilocal I received a message from a masonry company that had to clean up another mess that Joe made at someone elses house. He said that he felt really bad for the people because Joe ran off with $ 5,000 of their money. After this reponse it seems to me that Joe Moran is a real thief!
