Q&A

How can Melchor General Services help with shifting rock gardens or soil compaction common in Dover Plains?

The clay-rich soils and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles in our area can lead to shifting ground and compaction, which destabilizes rock gardens and landscaping. We address this by constructing sturdy, properly drained retaining walls to hold soil and rocks in place. For lawn areas, we offer core aeration and soil amendment services to relieve compaction and promote healthy grass growth, providing a lasting solution to these common local issues.

What does your process look like for a new patio or driveway installation?

We start with a free, on-site consultation to discuss your vision, assess the property, and provide a detailed estimate. For patios and driveways, we focus on proper site preparation, including grading and a solid gravel base, which is crucial for longevity in our local climate. Using quality materials, we then execute the masonry or concrete work with precision. We keep you informed throughout the process and ensure the final result is both functional and enhances your home's curb appeal.

Are you licensed and insured for masonry repair work on my home?

Yes, Melchor General Services is fully licensed and insured. This is important for your protection and our professionalism, whether we're repairing a cracked interior wall, repointing exterior brickwork, or fixing a damaged retaining wall. Our insurance covers liability and workers' compensation, giving you peace of mind that the job will be handled safely and responsibly from start to finish.
