HEMAX Construction Services & Landscaping, LLC

My old retaining wall was a couple pieces of wood, which was deteriorating. Chip was really helpful in helping to design what the new retaining wall would look like and answering all my questions. I'd definitely use them again in the future!

I recently hired Hemax to construct a patio under my raised deck on my Ashburn townhouse. I did do research on the Internet but didn't have strong impressions from any of the other contractors. A family member had hired Hemax a couple of years ago to do a large landscaping job and he was happy with the results. Dave from Hemax contacted me shortly after I sent an inquiry via email. He came to my home and gave me some very good design suggestions. He told me with the steps I would follow to engage them and the sequence and timing of the construction of the patio. Dave provided me a number of catalogs with paver options and allowed me time to make a choice of materials. The construction began on time, just a couple of weeks after signing the contract. The crew was here three days straight with no disruptions. They were very thorough and built a beautiful patio, cleaned up the entire work area and even put down grass seed around the boarder of the patio. I would not hesitate recommending Hemax to others and I plan to contact them again for a future landscaping project.

I've used HEMAX on several occasions. They are great to work with and have very fair pricing. They have a lot of talent with that company and seem to be able to do just about anything. They designed and built an amazing patio for us that included an outdoor kitchen, sitting wall. patio lighting, beautiful landscaping and a nice walkway with stones from the driveway to our patio. They are all very courteous, responsive and trustworthy. I will only use them for my future projects.

Hemax just completed a large installation of artificial turf on the playgrounds of one of our schools in Ashburn, VA. The job was professionally handled. No corners were cut, and the team and the supervisors made sure that the job was well done and issues-free. We are very pleased with the results. We highly recommend this company!

We purchased a Hartley-Botanic Greenhouse and needed to find a company to build the foundation. HEMAX exceeded all expectations, from working with us through zoning issues, getting the permits, working through any questions/issues with Hartley-Botanic and building the foundation to the exact specifications required. The crews were friendly, professional and did beautiful work. Henry Cruz kept us informed at every step of the project, and when we had questions, got back to us promptly. At the end of the project, we had some concerns about water draining away from the house, and Henry was able to suggest a solution and get the work done within a couple of days. I will hire this company again in a heartbeat. It was a pleasure to work with Henry, and we will be enjoying our beautiful greenhouse for many years to come. Highly recommend!

WE found the team very courteous and open to discussing best options for the landscape walls for our yard. The finished product was beyond our expectations! The team truly had great skill and patience working with the stone. WE will definitely turn to HEMAX for other projects.

We have been using HEMAX for all our hardscaping and landscaping needs for the past 7 years. They built our patio and retaining wall and they put in our front walk. They created our gardens when we first moved in, and we have had them come and do a spring cleanup each year. We have modified our gardens since then and have had them do all the work. We compared pricing on their landscaping services and they are very competitive. We are pleased to recommend HEMAX as satisfied customers.

HEMAX built us a beautiful flagstone patio, walkway, and steps on a concrete base, placed large stone steps on our hill, and set heavy capstones on an existing dry stone wall. They finished the job with lighting and drainage. We were pleased with the services we hired from HEMAX, including the initial design and consultation from Henry, as well as the expert job by the installation crew under Kelvin's supervision. HEMAX was competitive on price with bids from other landscape contractors, and we found the quality of their proposal and their work to be top-notch.

Our HOA needed to replace a failed 60-foot long drainage pipe that ran across one our private roads leading into a cul de sac and also had to address a number of erosion issues that the HOA had been dealing with at the pipe entrance and exit for many years. The HOA solicited potential solutions and 4 bids for the job from local contractors. Full-time access for residents during the project and ensuring that all necessary materials were available in a timely manner was a huge consideration for the HOA - especially with winter approaching. HEMAX was selected because they provided a solid plan, assured material availability, a guaranteed project start date and submitted the most competitive quote. The project involved asphalt cutting, excavation and replacement of a 24-inch corrugated metal drainage pipe with a high density polyethylene pipe, installation and compaction of fill over the new pipe to specifications and the application of hot-patch asphalt to repair the road surface. The project also included: the creation of new culverts and catch basins, the establishment of a head wall at the new pipe entrance, repair of existing culverts, and providing additional fill and re-grading of both sides of the private road for safety and also to help ease future maintenance of the area. Afterward, all work was seeded, covered with erosion control matting and lined with rip rap. Throughout the whole project, the HEMAX team kept the HOA Board informed and did an outstanding job. The project started and completed on-time and was efficiently executed so that residents had full-time access to the area and were minimally affected. Each night, the work area was well cleaned and all equipment safely stowed. The HOA Board highly recommends HEMAX based on their cost and performance on this project and will definitely consider them for future work within the HOA.

After a reference from our architect, we hired HEMAX to build a new deck and replace and build a new front walkway and new front stoop. We’ve worked with many contractors on various projects in the past 20 years. Not one lives up to the standards of Henry Cruz and his crew! Mr. Cruz was at our house promptly at 8 am with a crew of 9 people on the day our project started. HEMAX started on time, finished the project on time, made suggestions that saved time and money, and was ALWAYS available to answer questions and address any concerns we had. It’s the kind of five-star service that we’ve rarely seen with other contractors. We received so many compliments about our deck and walkway from our neighbors. In fact, we would hire HEMAX again for projects. Our only regret is that HEMAX doesn’t do kitchen remodels, or we would hire him again. He’s that good. — Greg and Victoria Ross

We could not be happier with the work that Hemax did for us. They completely transformed our backyard with a patio installation along with sod installation. We get complements on our yard and patio daily. During the planning process Henry was very attentive to our desires and wishes. He drew up several plans until we found exactly what we were looking for. He came to our home and spayed an outline to help us envision a little better what the finished product would look like. His team was quick but very thorough with the installation. Another thing we loved is that when Henry came out he noticed another issue we were having and which helped us take a proactive approach to solving rather than an expensive reactive approach in the future. And what we loved even more is that when we noticed a small issue Henry immediately responded and the team came back to fix it right away. We cannot wait to have family over to experience our new yard and already have several other projects lined up for Henry and his crew to tackle. I highly recommend Hemax!!

I found HEMAX Construction through Next Door Neighbor and called them for replacing our concrete walkway to our front door with a flag-stoned walkway. They delivered a high-quality job within the expected timeline and we're very happy with both the sales support that Henry Cruz provided as well as the construction work done by the team. They were not cheap but I guess high quality cannot be cheap. Overall, a great supplier that we would recommend.
