Lime Coat

Follow up on review. Mike did come out and look at both cracks. They fixed it and I was satisfied with the work and glad that they followed through with fixing the crack. Lime Coat is beautiful and it definitely takes an artist to do this work. I still think that us not getting in touch with the owner had something to do with the people working in the office. more

We are loving the look of flagstone on the front walkway and steps of our older home. The Lime Coat added instant curb appeal, and the crew was extremely hardworking and attentive to detail. Planning on resurfacing our pool deck in the fall. Would highly recommend! more

Reseal needed after 8 months. Crack developing. Not that happy for what I paid for this. more

I found that the guys were artists. Instead of ordering a set color they matched existing stone on the side of the house perfectly. They did a custom sample board first and gave the oportunity to adjust the colors. Then they did the entire job perfect to the sample board. The guys worked so hard in the hot sun and were tipped for their efforts! Its my understanding they are paid by the size of the job not by days. I wanted to hire one of the workers for other work, who spoke english and spanish, ( whom is hispanic ) but he was getting checks of over 3000 every 2 weeks. I just wanted my work done properly, and if I didnt have other work, would not have been my business what they were paid. Though it sounds that they are well compensated? But I have never seen a coating that looked so real as stone. Also not hot or slippery like stamped overlay was. Even the salesperson was so polite and seemed to really like his job and the owner he worked for. He knew I was getting other bids and didnt pressure a decision and was just a helpful seemed to be caring individual. I would highly suggest this company. more

Just finished my pool deck. Mike, your crew was great! Victor was a total professional. Crews were clean and professional. I will recommend your anytime! more

Advertising is misleading. Dishonest company. Don't believe references to "artist" and "expert". Laborers passed as "artists", are really underpaid, disadvantaged young men coming from our borders to learn a skill. I paid a premium for what I thought I was getting, yet owner, Mike Schram pays cheap for what he gets to pass on to you. Well, it seems there is at least one kind of artist in the mix and it's the guy pocketing the big wallop between expensive and cheap. The job: Mistakes were made ...and corrected. I was told they had never done a job like mine and that was why the mistake that caused them to have to do 1/3 over again. It was square cut tile around a pool deck and patio. hmmmm? There was no "on job" supervisor, so I was it. The workers were hardworking and willing to please. They were learning from their apprentice type mistakes. I had to cancel four days appointments to stay around and supervise these young men. Only one spoke English. The seal went on and it rained within one hour. Not sure if I will get a reseal yet. With the rain, I am seeing one drainage run that is not working now. Mike does not give off the impression that he is a man of integrity. Where I put my money is very personal to me. If I get a call back from him, I will ask him in more depth about where my money went. Does he provide health insurance for these workers. (I understand he doesn't provide insurance benefits to the sales reps, either, but he does keep promising that its coming) Do these young men have green cards? Sales rep says the hired laborers are paid flat rate per job. The job was suppose to take 4 days. It took 5.5 days. Did the laborers get paid more, with the extra time it took while they were learning how to do this unfamiliar job unsupervised? The way Mike operates his business is just wrong as he is taking advantage of a situation....and having me pay of it. Sometimes the line betwe more

We have only had lime coat for a year and we found 2 HUGE cracks. One crack the foreman takes fault for but not the one that plainly is their fault for not putting a joint line from drain to drain. I have asked several times to speak with the owner Mike and he has yet to call us back. I don't know if this is poor management and the people that work for him not getting in touch with him with this problem. The foreman did come by and admits they should have put in a joint line. So, why is someone not watching what the workers are doing to make sure joint lines are properly placed. I am still waiting for my call back and for this to be fixed. more

Of all the options that we saw, LimeCoat's overlay coating was definitely the most "real" looking. My patio looks so natural... totally like real flagstone! Thanks for a job well done. Highly recommended. more
