Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: 35 years masonry contracting. We are experts in brick, block, stone and all types of hardscapes. Although we can pour new sidewalks , driveways and patios as well as tear out and replace concrete for you at a reasonable price We can save you near 50% on replacement and turn a old and cracked plain slab into fab and save you a ton of money. We professionally resurface existing sidewalks, driveways, patios. masonry walls or just about anything masonry related. With new polymer concrete bonding materials we can permanently cover up surface imperfections in existing concrete that will outlast a new concrete surface for nearly half the cost of a new pour. We can turn a plain-jane slab from drab to fab. With today's decorative concrete overlays, it's easy to give almost any concrete surface, indoors or out, a complete face-lift and at a much lower cost than removal and replacement of your old concrete driveway. The real challenge is choosing from among the many resurfacing products available and the diverse array of decorative finishes possible. There are multiple options available for achieving any look imaginable with a concrete overlay. View our website, Beachhardscpes.com for some great designer concrete surface ideas. We can give your home a newer modern look with several design options .I have also done some beautiful old time specialty renovations in downtown Charleston and mimicked the old town look.. Experienced in restoration and design There all all sorts of less expensive options to beautify your home and saving big money by resurfacing existing patios, sidewalks and driveways without going into the great expense of pouring new concrete or replacing structures.

I not only have a great deal of experience in the field but also have a degree in land management, to include design and proper use of materials and placement of structures and graduated with honors. Specialist in brick blck and stone I also have a working knowledge of all the trades. I know the common issues that most homes have as a result of poor planning by the developers/builders.

After Matthew came through, our wooden deck that was an extension of our concrete slab under our raised beach house was destroyed. We decided to replace the wood with concrete. Gary was very knowledgeable about the proper way to lay concrete. We are very pleased with the finished project, Gary and his crew. I would definitely use his services again and have already recommended him to friends.

Needed to extend a patio and build a pad for a new shed. Gary Eckard not only gave me a fair price but described in detail how his method differed from other contractors. It was clear that he was the contractor for this job. Hard worker, good communicator and delivered an excellent product.

I have sea wall at my home here at 5080 capulet cir here in Myrtle Beach. I bought this home in December 2014. In July 2015 half of it fell in the lake. Contacted the people who built this wall and they wanted 5000 to rebuild. It is made of blocks not just any block but the ones they use for retainer walls which is the same as the sea wall. Waited 5 months and they would not even do it for that price went up. I found Gary Eckard and he said he would do this for me. Well he came here, said he would have it fixed in 5 to 7 days. We'll he came and was finished in 5 days and it looks like it never fell. Put the curves and all just like it was only this time it was done right with the right stuff want fall now and all he changed was 1000 for materials and labor saved me over 4000 not counting materials. If I ever need a person to do this kind of work there's only one in Myrtle Beach and that is Gary Eckard.

Horrible job. Resurfaced concrete patio. Gave me "a deal". Typical job of getting what you pay for. Big mistake of paying him cash. Left concrete chunks all over the yard and my hose is covered. Left divots in the concrete. It's 3 different colors. Only showed up when he felt like it. Took over 3 weeks even though I was told it could be completed in a weekend. He told me he shouldn't deal with "homeowners" because they don't understand concrete. I never send out negative reviews, but this is well deserved. This is what the patio looks like after 3 days. Now I will have to hire someone to fix the patio
