Agreeing to these terms

These terms cover your use of the J&M Lodi Concrete and Masonry website and any work our crew does for you as a masonry contractor in Lodi, CA and the cities around it. By using this site, asking for an estimate or booking a job with us, you agree to them, so if you don't agree, please don't use the site or book work through it.

You can go back to the home page at any time, or read about our crew before you reach out.

What we do

We do concrete and masonry work for homes, including brick, block, stone, pavers, chimneys, fireplaces, foundations and retaining walls. The service pages on this site describe that work in general terms, so they aren't a promise that a certain method, material or result is right for your house.

The work we'll actually do for you is set out in your written estimate or agreement, after we've seen the job in person.

Estimates and pricing

Estimates are free and done in person, and there's no pressure to book. An estimate is based on what we can see and measure on the visit, so it isn't a final price until you accept it in writing.

Some problems only show up once the work is open, like loose brick behind the face of a wall, a cracked footing or soft soil under a slab. If we find something like that, we'll stop, show you what we found and put any change in price or scope in writing before we go ahead.

Prices on an estimate hold for the time written on it, because material costs change, and after that we may need to update it.

Scheduling and cancellation

We set a start date with you once you accept the estimate. Weather, curing time, material deliveries and permits can move that date, and we'll tell you as soon as we know it's moving.

If you need to cancel or reschedule, call us at (209) 269-8703 as early as you can. Any cancellation terms, including whether a deposit or special-order materials can be refunded, are written in your agreement, and any right you have to cancel under California law still applies.

Payment

Payment terms, including any deposit, progress payments and the final amount due, are set out in your written agreement. Final payment is due when the work in that agreement is finished, unless the agreement says otherwise.

If a payment is late, we may pause work until it's caught up, and we'll talk with you before that happens.

Warranties

We stand behind our work and want you satisfied with it. Any written warranty for your job is the one in your agreement, and it covers only what it says.

Concrete and masonry move with soil, water and temperature, so hairline cracks, slight color differences between new and old brick or mortar, and natural variation in stone are normal and aren't defects. Apart from what's written in your agreement or required by law, our work and this website come without any other warranties, express or implied.

Limits on our liability

To the extent California law allows, we aren't responsible for indirect or consequential losses, such as lost use of part of your property, or for damage caused by things outside our control, like weather, ground movement, other contractors' work or changes made after we finish. Our total liability for a job is limited to the amount you paid us for that job.

These limits don't reduce any responsibility the law won't let us limit.

We try to keep this website accurate, but the information on it is general and may change, so don't rely on it in place of an in-person look at your job.

If there's a problem

If something isn't right, call us or use our contact page first, because most problems get fixed fastest when we can come back out and look at them together.

If we can't settle it between us, we can try mediation if we both agree, and either of us may take the matter to a court that has authority over it in San Joaquin County, California.

Governing law

These terms, your use of this website and any work we do for you are governed by the laws of the State of California.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time, and the version posted on this page is the one that applies. Changes don't affect a written agreement you've already signed with us.

If you have questions about these terms, call (209) 269-8703. We answer Monday through Friday from 6 AM to 9 PM and on weekends from 7 AM to 9 PM.
