I've used A-1 three times this COVID 2020 Building season and have been very happy with their service. Once had a driver not call so I wasn't there to make payment. Delivery still made and when I went buy to pay I was informed supervisor was informed and it'd not happen again. So far top soil in the spring 15 yds. Sewer rock in fall 8 yds. Another 5 yds of top soil today and hydro seeding coming next week. Hydro soil was also guaranteed that if it didn't take this yr they'd re-seed in spring at no cost. All deliveries were same day and done timely. Lastly I treated them respectfully and I received same in my encounters with office staff.

I am not usually a DIY person but with us needing to sell our house soon and a rotten deck out back, i needed a cheap fast fix. I ordered 2 different products form A-1 and they where SUPPER than if i bought bags from Lowes or Home Depo! I got my patio put in in 1 day thanks to theses guys. the only hiccup we had was that i had to wait 1 day for the other product but the office called and communicated that to me beautifuly and i got the rest of my order, NEXT DAY! 10/10 will definatly use A-1 again! :

Very rude people. Never ever contact these people about their services. Don't read any of their replies. Seems they are rude to just about everyone reading the reviews here and on google. Here's hoping their business will die in the very near future.

After having miserable customer service from another company, I called A-1. While I ultimately didn't contract with them, I felt I needed to give a shout out to Ted, the estimator/supervisor that came out to my property. He gave me loads of advice, walked around the yard with me, was very professional, yet he explained things in layman terms for me. The sticker shock of his verbal quote nearly sent me into seizures and he knew I probably wasn't going to hire them, but he continued on and helped me immensely. I really appreciated that. Thanks, Ted!

I sent them an email mid morning. I got a call in about an hour and got my topsoil in early afternoon. Satisfied customer.
