I noticed most of the good reviews are quite dated; so it's time to add my two cents. I agree; Ryan is the best thing about Alliance. Brian, their concrete guy was also great; but he quit shortly after my project. The rest of the 'crew' were horribly equipped; poorly prepared; unskilled; inexperienced and spent a lot of time not showing up at all. The project, an excavation and installation of a 10' x 10' sunken concrete patio and new lower entry door (provided by me), started 157 days late and went 6 weeks over, ending with an incorrectly sloped ground slab and useless dry well. An excruciatingly stressful experience. After being insulted, threatened and verbally abused by the 'owner' when I sought warranty repair; a couple of guys finally showed up to 'fix' it without really doing anything. And that's the last I've seen or heard from them. Like I say; Ryan is great.
