Jake did an awesome job cleaning up my bricks, repairing loose steps and chipmunk damage. He added polymetric sand to help keep the weeds out. Highly recommend . On time and finished in a timely manner

rose Hensch Google review · September 2026

We recently had a seawall, patio, and retaining wall installed at our home, and the entire experience with Edgewater was outstanding from start to finish. The team was professional, punctual, and incredibly easy to work with. They truly saved the day after an unscrupulous hardscaper left us with poor workmanship and an unfinished project. Edgewater removed all the existing block and started over, doing the job right from the ground up. The installation crew worked efficiently while paying close attention to every detail. They left everything clean, well finished, which we truly appreciated. It’s clear that the Edgewater team takes great pride in their work and is committed to delivering quality results. If you’re looking for a reliable company that stands behind its work and provides exceptional customer service, I highly recommend Edgewater. We couldn’t be happier with the results!
