Bishara Construction

I was searching homestars for a contractor to make interlocking at the front of my house. It was Fall, and I had trouble finding a contractor to complete it before the winter. Bishara Construction was available, so I picked them.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
The contractor who showed up is named "Rawi" and it seems he is the only one in this company. He came to look at the property and give a price. I showed him what I wanted and gave him a layout with dimensions. He started yelling at me saying "why are you giving me exact measurements!? Are you an engineer? Huh? Are you an engineer!?"
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
I am, in fact, an Electrical Engineer. I did not disclose this, to prevent him from overcharging me.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
After a lot of arguing and condescending yelling at me in front of my house, we arrived at some compromise to get roughly what I wanted. Luckily this was just a property I was renting out, otherwise I would have cared more about getting what I want. Unbelieveable that he yells at his customers and refuses to do the work he was hired for as the customer wants.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
If it wasn't for the fact that I needed to get this done before the winter, I NEVER would have hired him.

Fast forward into the Spring and Summer. I had weeds growing up from under the interlocking, and a sink hole opened up on one side. I had to call another contractor to fix it. This new contractor, told me that whoever did it didn't put a tarp underneath the interlocking to prevent weeds from growing up in between the stones. He also informed me that if it had been done properly, a sink hole would not have appeared.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
I can not express my disgust with this contractor enough. I am appalled by his treatment of customers, the fact that he shames people for giving him a layout of how they want the project done, and even after doing it his own way, he doesn't do the job properly.

Furthermore I was told I was overcharged for the work that was done by other homeowners who also had interlocking.

This has been a horrible experience - I still can't believe it! I really didn't want to end up here writing this but I have no choice at this point. These guys did the job for us November 2020. It was very cold. There was never any mention that low temperatures may be an issue. They completed the job just fine. Two weeks later came the first snow and the stairs and patio were like an ice rink! It was so scary! My husband fell down on the stairs a few times. We had to spend extra money to purchase rubber mats for each stair leading up to our front door, as well as a special box to put at the bottom of the stairs where packages and mail can be left so that folks were not coming up the stairs - we were so worried someone might get hurt and/or sue us! In March 2021, I contacted them because when the snow melted, we noticed that some of the paint was already peeling. This guy, Rawi, didn't come to take a look until fall of that year even though I contacted him many times and each time, he'd say he'd come soon. At that point, it was peeling badly - it looked really ugly, worse then before we even got any work done. I suspect they went cheap on the seal and didn't do it properly. It was so embarrassing and frustrating after all the money we spent (took out of our baby's savings!). The paint and seal would come off even if just water from the hose touched the ground...He came and was very "surprised" at the state of things. He said he'll come first thing in the spring. I had a hard time negotiating that we should not be charged anything extra but he seemed to agree. So March 2022 (a year after I first asked for the fixes), I started messaging again and he came in April and said he'll do it as soon as the weather is above 15 (never mentioned temperature being an issue when he did the job in very cold weather in November). It's now almost July and we've been in touch weekly - every time, he makes it sound so friendly and like he's just about to send someone over. Week after week, he would say it'll be done in days. I finally realized it's not going to get done and I asked for 75% (I was being nice) of our money back. He said he'll get it to me but doesn't have it now so I have to be patient (15 months waiting for a redo was not patient?!). I don't think he will give that money back unless I take formal action which I will. He seems to think that this being a "small" job, he can just disregard but this is people's money! I cannot simply give up and forget, and I have to look at this ground every day...

Not responsive.
Lacks integrity.
Doesn't deliver what is promised.
Changes rates/prices,
Has poor customer service & is very disrespectful.
Job left uncomplete.
Finishing sand was not done.
Their garbage left behind.
Had to hire others afterwards to fix issues they refused to fix

Their job was really nice and clean they were always on time and the crew was really polite and professional.
I would really recommend this company.
Give them the job and get what you want.
Thank you Bishara Construction for your beautiful work.

I had Bishara Construction come and clean up my backyard as all my grass was dead. Removed steps and had interlock put in. I highly recommend this company as they offer precision and great customer service

Horrible company!
We decided to get our backyard done last year summer and I found this company. We got in touch he sent me pics came over and said he only had a slot available but had to decide now. Given how busy everyone was we decided to give this small company a chance since the reviews were good etc. Anyway the project started things are going ok I’m taking care of the crew etc... then I slowly began to realise that they were rushing through things and had to keep asking them to fix stuff which got done etc... anyway we got our backyard done they planted my shrubs wrong and they does so $600 loss partly because they dumped gravel/sand mix under the top soil which I had to get someone to fix. Next I start chasing them to do the front they come after almost 2-4 weeks of chasing.... and again rushing to finish the work, it’s our first project and I’m assuming these guys know their work until some people start pointing out faults. Then the and front is done but he says I’m busy will finish porch in Aug end Sept we said fine. Again we start chasing him he then sends his crew after almost 4-6 weeks delay who start cutting the slabs for the porch and leave the work unfinished saying they’ll come back tomorrow and that was the last time we saw those guys. The owner Rawi later said he was going to send some other people because his crew was unable to finish the job etc... that day never came and our porch is still unfinished as well as all the last minute filling of gaps etc. Oh and Rawi took 2000 dollars from us saying that if the job is unfinished he’ll pay us back the money and take the material. Within 6 months of the job done the tiles have started to sink the front is still a mess. So if you want to save yourself money and headache DO NOT go with this company! I’m attaching the pics of the horrible unfinished job they did so you can see it for yourselves.

Rawi and his team were very professional, they took pride in their work. The job was completed on time and is top quality workmanship. I am very pleased with the backyard interlocking and front flagstone steps. They are already booked to return in the spring to complete more interlocking in the backyard.

Bishara Construction was very helpful with helping me fix my backyard at a reasonable cost. They worked efficiently and were very professional. My deck was in rough shape and they made it new again! I will definitely hire them again and would recommend them to everyone I know. Thank you again for giving your 100%.

Very happy with the customer service and speed of this projected. Estimated completion was 5 days, job completed in 3 days. The guys worked really hard to get this done for us.
Highly recommend Rawie @ Bishara Construction

Rawi and his team did an impressive job. My neighbors keep asking about who we had used to do our project. Very reasonable and good work done . I would recommend Rawi and his team to anyone looking to do a concrete project.
