US VS. THE OTHER GUYS
What you get, side by side.
Most hardscape looks the same the day it is finished. The differences show up in year two.
| Feature |  Crosstown Brick & Walls | A typical hardscape crew |
|---|---|---|
| Who you deal with | A third-generation family company. The people at the estimate run the job. | A salesperson quotes it, a subcontractor builds it. |
| How pavers are set | Set on a compacted aggregate base with paver edge restraint. | Thin base, or poured concrete that cracks. |
| Minnesota winters | Built to move with freeze and thaw and settle back flat. | Heaving, cracking, and a callback nobody answers. |
| Retaining walls | Block or boulder with drainage designed in. | Railroad ties or poured concrete. |
| Track record | The family has built in the Twin Cities since 1955. | New name every few years. |
| Reviews | 5.0 on Google across 14 reviews. | Mixed, or none. |
| Your yard during the job | Work area cleaned up every day. | Pallets and gravel until the last day. |
| After the job | Written warranty on every project. | A handshake. |
