    We needed an experienced construction firm to replace outdoor stairs with a gradual concrete walkway and metal railing that would meet ADA standards for seniors. A Cut Above was recommended to us and we hired them. Their crews' work was first rate and they were great to work with. Sammy, the manager, was knowledgeable, courteous, and pleasant to work with. We live in a senior community that has strict alteration rules and multiple administrative hoops to jump through before a permit can be issued and final inspection approved. Sammy and his crew worked with us and our homeowner association staff to ensure approval at each step. The final product was a very solid and beautiful concrete and metal structure that catches everyone's eyes.

    I would like to take a minute to personally Thank Jose and the members of A Cut Above for their immediate response to my High Wind damage...involving a big tree that broke and fell over my fence and into and across a very busy street here in Walnut Creek. The temporary repairs were done in a most timely fashion and more repairs mostly cosmetic to the fence and remaining tree stump will be completed in the next few days. These folks are professional in the work they do and respond accordingly. I do recommend them highly, but can you wait until they are done here please!

    Jose was a great guy to work with. My wife and I didn't want to hire an expensive landscape architech because our design was simple. I had several different bids on the fence and concrete work but in the end A Cut Above was cheaper. During the building process we had a couple of dislikes with a paver pathway and built in bench. Jose said no problem and repaired it to our liking. The drip system had a few kinks after the the construction was completed and required several repairs. Jose said no problem and came out same day or next until the problem was resolved. This is not my first big construction project and I can say A Cut Above was quick and easy to work with.

    We just did a mid size project with them last month. We had them underpin one side of the house and…read morereplace a good amount of posts and repair some cracks in our foundation. Brett came out to do an assessment on our entire foundation and his finding was consistent with our own inspection report. Their recommendation is also on par and we find that Brett is quite knowledgeable about the scope of work. He is also very patient, responsive and respectful throughout the estimating project while we took a long time to decide, a lot of follow ip questions and requests. Not once that I felt rushed, pushed or disrespected. The team kept me informed on the timeline of permit, project starting time, inspection and completion, everything was transparent. They passed inspection without problemsx Our foreman is Humberto who was polite, dependable and kept me well informed on the work they performed the day of, when they finished work and provided needed before and after pictures. I also find their pricing is reasonable compared to other companies that we interviewed with the experience that far exceeds their piers. Overall I had a good experience with the crew. They are polite and really didn't interfere with our life that much while they work. I would recommend them for all foundation repair needs. Be careful because lots of foundation companies will scam you, just because you will not be able to see what they did underneath your crawl space. The last foundation company came out to fix our house they made a bunch of noise for 2 weeks, said they are done and then we hired an independent inspector and confirmed they did nothing. Spend the money on a good company. This one is probably the best one ( we interviewed 6 companies)

    My large concrete driveway pad was settling and cracking, and I commissioned Foundation Solutions…read moreto level it, and repair some of the crumbling concrete. The experience was great. Kyle initially came out to evaluate my project and give me a bid. His communication was clear, and he assured me there would be a direct line of communication between himself and the crew who would be doing the work, which was one of my priorities in choosing a contractor. His bid was a little less than another bid I got, but cost was not why I went with them. Jason and Ernie then came out to do the work, and Jason had been briefed by Kyle with the nuances of the project. Jason was careful to describe what he thought would work best, and he kept me in the loop along the way. The work came out great, and no sooner had Jason and Ernie left than Kyle was on the phone to make sure I was satisfied with the work. Start to finish there was clear communication, effective follow-through, and my expectations were met. What more do you want when hiring a contractor? I would definitely hire Foundation Solutions again.

    We had a great experience NAB Construction! Our pickleball court had broken concrete on one end,…read moreand was too short on the other. NAB removed all the bad concrete and replaced it with pavers, and on the other side of the court, they added 5 feet of concrete where we had lawn, as well as adding to our existing retaining wall. After the pavers were installed, I noticed something not to my preference with the paver layout. I contacted Nick, our site manager from NAB, and he was very responsive, and arranged for Nate (the company president) to come out right away and discuss the matter, which was resolved that same day to my complete satisfaction. Nick also was happy to arrange for a few other small tasks related to bricks and concrete on our property to be taken care of, and they were - at no added cost. NAB construction was not the lowest bid we got for this work, but I have learned the hard way that going with the lowest price is not always a great idea, and I am glad I went with NAB for this project. I'm very satisfied with the results of this project, and would not hesitate to recommend NAB construction to others.

    We got a new driveway with pavers installed back in 2023. It turned out great and we enjoyed…read moreworking with the owner Nate. We wanted a walkway installed so we went back but this time we dealt with someone by the name of Nick Vard. He was very unprofessional and used the terms "outside the scope of work" and asked us to make a "commitment" several times. I went to Brickyard on a Saturday at 8AM per the direction of Nick but when I called him about our selection he never called me back. He blamed us and said they lost money on the job because it took longer than expected. He tried to convince me to use a brick I did not like. And the biggest disappointment was the drainage that they left unfinished. We spent almost $10k but we feel like the job is incomplete. Wish we could recommend them but if they continue working with Nick Vard you should stay away.

He showed up on time, was very respectful of my home and professional. Not pushy at all, and very easy to speak with. High compliments for Scott!

    Working with this company was one of the most frustrating experiences I have ever had. I signed my…read morecontract in August and today on 3/22/26 the work is finally complete. The communication is absolutely horrible, if you get any at all. With repeated attempts to follow up on my project, I kept getting the same answer that they were waiting on permitting, but on two separate occasions, over two separate issues, with two separate time spans, that was incorrect and the delay was a failure to complete the correct paperwork to even submit to the city. This caused months of delays that were unnecessary. They did damage to my electrical, but only would accept responsibility when I pushed back. The work took weeks longer than originally anticipated. All of these things I can understand, but again the terrible communication made the situation so much worse than it needed to be. The technicians who performed the work were very nice and worked their butts off. They walked onto my project totally unprepared for the work involved, even though two representatives were under my house on two separate occasions and could have assessed the work needed. I could keep going, but no one reads long reviews and I am hoping to save someone the headache I went through.

Upgrading to 3 stars, with the 2 star penalty for the totally ridiculous year+ it took me to get them to actually do the job.

    Steve came over today and spent nearly 2 hours thoroughly explaining not only the situation of our…read morehome, but a history of building construction since the 1930's. With illustrations and insightful metaphorical explanations, I got a better understanding of the way soil moves and changes with the seasons and over time. He also did a great job of understanding the effects of water and soil movement. I've had four other contractors come over to my house, and this was by far the best in the area at understanding concepts of my foundation clearly, without being made fearful of potential outcomes. This information helps clarify and understand my home a lot better, and I'm so grateful for the detailed explanation with a friendly disposition. I now have an elevation reading of my entire home, a better understanding of my floor and foundation, and know some steps to get towards a more stable foundation for my home in Concord. After struggling with other companies in this area, I'm definitely confident in engineered soil repairs to be our solution. Thanks Steve and ESR!
