Big scammer Joseph Loliscio
Untrustworthy
In July 2022 I hired them to fill in a small hole that collapsed on my cobblestone patio, re-lay the stones, pressure wash, insert polymeric sand, and all weather seal. They quoted me $3200 and said the sand and sealing would last 5-10 years without an issue.
After paying, they pressure washed the driveway and patio, then let it sit for several weeks to the point where they had to come and redo the entire process as weeds were again growing in the spacing. Also during this time, I filled in the hole and reset the cobblestones myself as it was a hazard to my children. I asked them to lower the $3200 quote and was told , “That was being done for free since it was such a small job. The power-washing, polymeric sand, and sealing still would cost $3200.” Since they had a contract and I just wanted it finished, I dropped the complaint and they finished the work in mid-August, over a month after they stated it would originally be completed.
Fast forward to April 2023 and there are again weeds growing within a great amount of the areas where the polymeric sand and sealer were laid. I was told by Harold (BAWA) over the phone, “No problem. Our worker probably did not power wash deep enough and we will take care of it.” Eventually, after several weeks of no communication except when initiated by me and several no shows, Harold told me that I needed to speak with Joe (The Brick Factory) and he would take care of it.
It was more of the same with Joe, who promised to come fix the problem twice, and no showed both appointments. He threatened that he would not fix the work unless I took down my reviews of him and Harold. I took them down as a show of good faith and he no showed again!
In the last four months now I have been given numerous excuses as to why they have not finished the work. These have included weather, being too busy, not having any available time, not having enough workers, one of the owners having a child, and posting honest reviews of their work.
To sum this up, I paid $3200 for a job that was promised to last 5-10 years and made it about eight months. Since my reviews Joe has now changed his stance saying that it must be resealed every year. Harold posted a comment online that he would send a crew to fix it, and they never came.
You would be better off hiring literally anyone else to handle your housing needs. I will now be taking them to small claims court. Save yourself the trouble I have found myself in and simply don’t hire them!
Sorry to hear your sad experience. Highly recommended by my neighbor, I made a huge mistake to hire him. He barely did anything on my pool paving since he took quite some $$ 2 months ago. No return of calls, no shows. He is terrible. I want to terminate the contract so that I can hire others. But the business name : Brickstone Group does not even exist. There is no physical address of his company. How can you sue him? Your help is appreciated. P

Type of a scam Home Improvement
He did the same to a neighbor of mine- and my sister-in-law also few people on her block, they all gave him deposits. He takes the deposits and never plans on doing the work. Disgusting sad man to scam people like this. I called several times as my husband lost his job and at this point just wanted our money back.
