I have a concrete patio that I want to cover with something (probably blue stone). Any recommendations for companies who do patios? |

I highly recommend Express Landscaping - (973)701-7879. Manny (the owner) is an absolute perfectionist with stone laying, and wonderful to work with.
He just did a lot of stone work for us, privateline me if you're interested in seeing our bluestone patio. |

lydial- we know that you hired Manny because he's just so damn cute! Don't worry, it's my first criteria too!!!

Manny's cute too? Funny, I never noticed! Hmmm, now that you mention it he did have piercing blue eyes that matched the afternoon September sky and touseled blond hair that fell just so over his tanned brow, and a chisled jawline that...
Nope, I never noticed. |

I must say that the fact that every woman I know who sees him gets dreamy (to be polite...;-D) over Manny is astonishing!!
Including, dare I say especially, my wife!
Okay...he's very handsome and twinkly and all that but it's amazing how every woman thinks so.
Intrigued yet, ladies?
He also does really nice work. Our front "walklet" is a fine example.
Be well, all.

Oh yes, I have heard him mentioned, haven't I.
Screw this DIY stuff, bring on Manny! |

David, Yes! The twinkly stuff!
Actually, it' was the men on the block who kept gruffly mentioning "Hmm, he's kinda handsome, huh?"
The best thing about Manny's work is that it always fits the house and landscaping. It never screams "New Walk!", I wanted an organic look, my neighbors wanted a formal scheme, and both our walks look like they were part of the house for years. I also recommend a landscape architect to oversee the project and draw up plans for Manny to work from. |

To be honest over the years I have come to expect this sort of drivel from FFOF. However, I always thought that Lydia was a serious person.

bobk- the only reason I speak to you online is because I have a crush on you and I picture you looking something like Manny!!!!
Is it that obvious that I am just a skindeep kinda gal?!!! |
