Uggg. What a stressful project. Nate is tough to deal with. We met him in March. We wanted to…read moreget on the list early in the season as we heard he booked up quickly and you will never hear from him. We paid our deposit in March. We made several follow up and were delayed. On August 2, he sent me a text that he was showing up in 3 minutes. Good thing I was working at home. We start talking about the project. Now, he didn't want to do what we asked him to do back in March. Now, it seemed like he wanted to do what was quickest job so he could get his crew to the next site. Mind you, he had my deposit so there was no backing out now. After some back and forth, we agreed on the work needed. The project was supposed to begin on August 6. The next day, August 3rd, Nate sent me a text that the crew was arriving in 3 minutes. I was in a business meeting as it was the middle of the day. Nate asked me to remind the job leader of many tasks as Nate, the boss, wasn't coming to the job site. Now, me, the customer, had somehow become the foreman. These guys made a mess. They wrecked my irrigation system. I planned to move some sprinkler heads due to their work, but in their haste, they just cut buried lines left and right. They moved my AC unit, per Nate's suggestion. They left it crooked and un-leveled. I had to deal with getting it moved back. They broke a gutter downspout and damaged newly planted trees. Their haphazard power washing took paint off my house and garage door (they were trying to clean concrete that they splattered). I have a video of the kid who did the power washing asking an older worker if he should tell me. The older guy told him not to let me know about it. Overall, the concrete looked nice enough, but it was not perfect. There were flaws. Some caused by the workers. For example, one worker turned on the water spigot over fresh concrete. It caused corrosion. Nate promised to fix it, but that never happened. Nate wanted to be paid in full before the work was done. He added a bunch of miscellaneous fees to the bill on the spot. For example, he wanted $350 for a downspout drain. He claimed I sent his worker shopping for it. I did no such thing. His workers damaged ours, but told me not to worry about it because they had one "at the warehouse." They showed up the next day with about $7.00 worth of mismatched PVC to replace it. To add insult to injury, when I was paying the bill, Nate told me to finish installing the drain (which they buried), myself. We had freshly planted trees. Nate's crew leaned a Kubota tractor against them. Further, they laid large metal plates down which sunk in the ground. I took photos and videos throughout the project and incidentally captured what they did to our trees, which were all bent and leaning. I brought it to Nate's attention and his response was, "I'm not a landscaper." All the neighbors warned me about Nate. They suggested that everyone knew Nate by name and continued to use him because there was nobody else in the area. However, everyone had the same story to tell about him. Be prepared. The workers did not clean up. They left pop cans, candy wrappers, garbage, razor blades, and nails everywhere. I had to police the area nightly to clean up. I should have gotten a discount for all the work I had to do. They will ruin your lawn and your neighbors, too. Both of my side neighbors came out talked with his crew multiple times as his workers were not respectful to their properties. I had three big projects lined up for that summer: landscaping, exterior painting, and stamped concrete. We hired Nate first. He was last to start his project and he managed to ruin our landscaping and painting. We had painters, landscapers, deckers, and other contractors out, and he was by far the worst to deal with. I sure hope his concrete lasts and was worth all the stress and aggravation. Yes, the concrete looked nice, but we had to rectify what they broke. I can tell you that the concrete needed to be resealed relatively quickly after installation.

(I'm copying and pasting this from my Google review of the same service, I find it useful to have…read moregood resources in multiple places) Ross & crew at Mud Masters Concrete Leveling are absolute professionals. My wife and I contracted their services after living with an enormous gap in our driveway into our garage, and a pretty nasty tripping hazard on the walkway to our front door. As a working professional I will include the caveat that all results may vary, I certainly don't want to make any guarantees on Ross' behalf, but he was able to provide an estimate via email based on pictures and measurements, and found a time slot for us within a couple weeks after accepting the bid, which was vastly more competitive than other service providers we contacted. This saved us time and money from having to clip out of work early to meet more contractors who served up ludicrous bids with a straight face. I can't speak to the lasting power of mudjacking services in general, and ours has only been in place for a day so far. But Mud Masters uses a clay+concrete mixture to lift concrete in comparison to other providers who might use a sand slurry or polyurethane foam which in my mind doesn't seem as stable, long term. I know others who've had their concrete leveled with foam injections and they just didn't last. I am cautiously optimistic with Mud Masters' choice of materials. Finally, the service. It's a common thread across all service providers, they don't show up when expected, or the appointment window is so huge and vague that it doesn't really matter. Not so, here. Ross gave me an hour window when he and his crew were coming, and they arrived on-time as expected. They were swift, efficient, and they clearly knew their stuff. In advance of their service, Ross gave me a heads up on a couple things I could do to ensure our property was ready for their work, and they knocked the whole thing out in what I imagine is pretty quick for what they do. As for "what they do," my wife and I are both quite pleased with the results. Have a look at the before and after pics attached to the review here and judge for yourself, but Mud Masters lifted our garage entry slabs a full three inches to meet the garage. No more off-roading to get into the garage. No more "running starts". Not pictured, our front walkway which was lifted a full seven inches to remove the tripping hazard and level out the stairs to our front door. Even our little dog is pleased, she doesn't have to make the spectacular leaps she used to do to get back inside. This is a lot of words to say Mud Masters Concrete Leveling is the real deal. They are a top notch service provider offering a very competitive price for fantastic service. Have you got a dangerous walkway or a messed up driveway? This is the source you need. Call Ross. Fix your concrete.
