Embrun Concrete poured the concrete for our entire new home in late summer of 2018. 3 months after…read morethey poured the concrete our porch cracked. Millions of cracks. Not just little cracks. Cracks that went all around our wrap around porch. We panicked. Called the company. After at many voicemails and many emails they finally called us back. Told us to wait the winter out and they would check it out in the spring. March 2019 rolled around and we started calling and emails again looking for them to at least check this out. Again a million voicemails and emails.. finally the owner (Dave) came to check it out. This was not spring.. but August 2019. It took him this long to check out an issue. A year after it had been poured! He was a bit caught of guard. His reply was "I have never seen anything like this" when he seen the porch. No kidding! Took a video and once again told us to wait it out see what happens after the winter! Winter of 2019 came and went. We organized a meeting with our contractor and Embrun concrete onsite March 2020. Once again nothing resolved. Said he'd talk with the concrete mix company and get back to us. No returned call.. So we left messages and sent emails.. Now the owner is telling us cracks are "normal". Our porch on our new home is not normal! If I could attach a pic to this review i would. Even he thought it was not normal 1 year ago. It's only now normal because this company does not stand by their work! If they did, they would have not ran from us. They would have tried to help us resolve this issue! Highly unrecommended company!

Marc was the primary mason on my job and he…read moredid exceptional work - He has years of masonry experience, takes pride in his work and was very tidy and thorough. There were surprises along the way (e.g., missing chunks of foundation as a result of previous retrofits) and things beyond the actual foundation (unpatched holes in the bottom exterior walls). Action Restoration went above and beyond to resolve my issues and it is amazing how warm the upstairs floor is now! I cannot say enough about how rare and pleasant it is working with a company that follows through on commitments, answers when you call, 30+ years of expertise, respectful of clients, and, most importantly, human beings that are there to help you, not to take advantage. I give Action Restoration a solid 5-star rating across the board: Communication: 5 stars; Professionalism: 5 stars; Quality of the work: 5 stars; Cleanliness: 5 stars; Overall Experience: 5 stars.

My neighbour seems really happy with their service however that is not why I chose to write this review. I have dealt with many contractors over the years and never have a had a team be so incredibly courteous. No matter who you are talking to they are friendly and accommodating. All the neighbours have been talking and this feeling is universal. Just a small example, they are working in our driveway and have fencing around the whole. Our door is down the driveway and I asked that when they are done for the day they make sure to push the fence away from our house so that my wife can get the stroller down the driveway even if no one is there to help. They were totally understanding and every single day since the fencing has been pushed back. The organizational culture of service is truly incredible. Kudos to everyone there.

The new stucco that they put in is not level with the original stucco and the texture is different too so you can see even from the street that it is a patch.
