Hemax

Hemax team did a great job replacing my driveway and sidewalk in a very narrow rowhouse with no access for a concrete truck. They also installed astroturf that actually looks very good. Fast response time and great communication throughout the process. I highly recommend them. Services:Stone landscaping, Landscaping maintenance, Driveway landscaping, Artificial turf installation

We used HEMAX for multiple services. They built a large 3 Season room with a stone fireplace. Their stone and woodwork is exceptional. We love the room and use it daily throughout the year. HEMAX built a beautiful stone wall around our large oak tree - several neighbors had them built as well. They installed a split rail fence, a stone patio for our barbecue and fire pit and a stone walkway - all beautiful.

When the electric company destroyed our yard, HEMAX graded and sodded our back and side yards. It looks great and blended into the rest of the yard well. They preformed tree and shrub trimming and Spring cleanup that includes cutting all beds and mulching. The management team is very professional and aims to please. They made great suggestions and helped us through the decision process.

Their carpenters and stone masons are very talented. Their work crews are friendly, hard working and excellent at leaving the work area perfectly clean when finished. After seeing the completed projects at our house and yard, other family members and neighbors have used HEMAX and were very pleased that they did.

HEMAX built us a beautiful flagstone patio, walkway, and steps on a concrete base, placed large stone steps on our hill, and set heavy capstones on an existing dry stone wall. They finished the job with lighting and drainage. We were pleased with the services we hired from HEMAX, including the initial design and consultation from Henry, as well as the expert job by the installation crew under Kelvin's supervision. HEMAX was competitive on price with bids from other landscape contractors, and we found the quality of their proposal and their work to be top-notch.

We could not be happier with the work that Hemax did for us. They completely transformed our backyard with a patio installation along with sod installation. We get complements on our yard and patio daily. During the planning process Henry was very attentive to our desires and wishes. He drew up several plans until we found exactly what we were looking for.

He came to our home and spayed an outline to help us envision a little better what the finished product would look like. His team was quick but very thorough with the installation. Another thing we loved is that when Henry came out he noticed another issue we were having and which helped us take a proactive approach to solving rather than an expensive reactive approach in the future.

And what we loved even more is that when we noticed a small issue Henry immediately responded and the team came back to fix it right away. We cannot wait to have family over to experience our new yard and already have several other projects lined up for Henry and his crew to tackle. I highly recommend Hemax!

We interviewed several companies for our new patio and what we thought we had a good idea of how we wanted it to look like based on several ideas from Pinterest and other websites. Each company provided a rendering, but Henry with Hemax asked questions, worked with us and provided ideas that we didn't even think of. Henry was patient and explained everything.

The other companies just provided what we stated, which is fine but I felt that Henry went the extra mile to make sure we understood all of our options. It was an huge transformation from before. The previous owner had 3 medium size trees in a half circle about 10 feet apart and 7 boxwoods in an "L" formation the middle of the backyard, which was nice when we moved in but overtime we noticed that we were not utilizing our backyard to its full potential because it was just to busy. Henry provided a sketch that opened up our backyard and made it a more inviting.

We discussed options for stone, colors and an area for a fire pit as well as how we would layout patio furniture as well as a new staircase. Henry was upfront and advised us of the possibility of delays with certain materials, but kept us informed. We did experience a delay with the stone, but that was with the manufacturer and we were prepared for it.

Previously we had Trex stairs walking down to our existing patio, but the layout of the stairs didn't work. We discussed the idea to replace the stairs with stone stairs and widen it for easier flow. The final product was better than we thought. We added landscaping lighting underneath the stairs to connect in with our existing landscaping lighting.

As for the patio we worked with Henry on an 850 SF paver patio with a 3 stone pattern and 4x8 soldier border. The completed product is amazing, we couldn't be more pleased. The work from this company is excellent, they are very hard working and are very accommodating. The work was done in a timely fashion with excellent communication on when they will start to when the final walkthrough will be.

Prior to the commencement of the work, I asked Henry to come out one more time to do another work through to make sure everything was understood. He explained the whole process and listened to our concerns, he made us feel very comfortable with the process. This was a big undertaking for us, a complete transformation of our backyard so we were a little nervous on how it would all turn out. Hemax did an excellent job and we absolutely love the work they did that we hired them to do our front walkway as well.

We have received numerous complements from our neighbors on how good of a job they did, that our next-door neighbor hired them do to there patio as well. I can't praise them enough on the work they did and the guidance they provided, I would hire them again in an instant.

I used Hemax to install a flag-stoned walkway. They were very professional, and delivered a high-quality job, meeting all of our expectations. They were not cheap but did a great job and our house entry looks so much better. I would strongly recommend for any stone work. Henry Cruz was a pleasure to deal with.

Hemax is one of the best contractors I've worked with in over the twenty years I have own my home. I researched and interviewed over 6 contractors for my project. I know it was going to be pricey and I had no idea what I need done, other than I had a drainage problem. All I knew was I had a drainage problem that needed to be fixed. I needed a contractor to come in and tell me what he or she can do to fix my drainage problem.

I met Henry one of the owners and he explain to me how he would fix my drainage problem. Henry drew up a beautiful design. Once Henry explained his design and how it was going to work, I was very happy. I asked Henry lots of questions after showing me his design. His design was so beautiful that I start asking questions and he started giving me suggestions, because I wanted a beautiful backyard.

I must also say Henry was very patient and understanding with me with all the questions. Most contractors would have been irritated. Henry was always honest and upfront with me and a man of his word. I trust Henry and Hemax Construction & Landscaping and I will be a repeat customer. If you need a contractor, please call or email Hemax first they are one of the best companies in Northern Virginia.

I have one more thing to say. I know I am a customer, but I consider Henry as a friend. Because he was so honest, kind, and upfront with me. Attached are a few pictures of before and after.

Henry and Max and their crew are just amazing. We've done several projects with HeMax over the years - laying flagstone pathways, stone veneer on our house, major structural remodels, landscaping, etc. Every time, the experience has been fantastic. Henry in particular is just great to deal with - super responsive, fair, great communication. Can't ask for more. And they do exactly what they say they are going to do, on time and budget. I highly recommend HeMax.

We had a great experience working with Henry and the rest of the Hemax team. We needed our patio redone, as the old one had sunk and was not draining properly. Not only was Henry fantastic in working with our HOA to get the project moving along quickly, but he also continuously came by to check on the job and ensure the work was top notch. Less than a year after, we had a small issue with a couple of outdoor lights we had installed when the patio was redone. Hemax sent out a member of its team to address the problem no questions asked. I would not hesitate to recommend Hemax for your outdoor landscaping and patio needs. They are great people, their work is high quality, and prices are fair.

We selected Hemax Construction after interviewing three other companies and we could not be happier with our new deck. While there price for the new deck was one of the best, it was their plan and presentation that sold us. One of the most important things I told the companies we interviewed was that my wife and I did not have an eye for what looks good and would appreciate a rendering of what was possible for our yard and budget.

Two of the four companies gave us a price, but no drawing and one other company shared a hand drawing on graph paper. What I liked about Hemax is that one of the owners, Henry, sat down with me over a zoom and showed a computer rendering of his vision. He also explained in detail the difference in materials, cost, and process. We loved what he had to show us and because the price was very competitive, we were sold.

Our good experience continued once we made the initial deposit. Henry kept us up to date on where we were with permits and gave us over a week's notice as to when the project would begin. Once the project began, we were impressed with how quickly, smoothly, and professionally it was done. We will be adding a patio next year and look forward to working with Hemax again!
