From start to finish, Blake, the owner, was incredibly professional, communicative and patient. He took the time to walk us through the entire process, answered all our questions and offered helpful suggestions to ensure the best outcome. Blake, Elvis and team were all hard workers and really took pride in the job. It was clear that they knew exactly what they were doing and attention to detail was evident in the finished product. The concrete looks flawless, and aesthetically pleasing. The team was efficient, timely, and left the work site clean. We were impressed by how smoothly the project went, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. We would definitely recommend Gold Star Concrete to anyone looking for quality work with great customer service. A huge thank you to Blake, Elvis and team for making our new concrete and home look amazing!

I don't want to spend a ton of money so he replaced the adobe bricks with cinder blocks that were the same size and shape and had the texture of adobe. Pablo then painted it. He and his son did a really nice job. They built a frame around the fireplace so the dust would be contained during demo and replacement. It only took 1 day to do the bulk of the work before returning 2 days later to paint it the same matching color. I'm happy with the work they did!

We recently hired Mendenhall Concrete to replace our driveway, widen it by 6 feet, install a new…read moreL-shaped front walkway, replace and widen the side walkway to our garage, and redesign the front entry by eliminating a crumbling brick step and incorporating it into the new walkway. I can honestly say this was the best experience I've ever had with a home improvement contractor. From start to finish, Mike Stratton and his team were outstanding. Mike is friendly, responsive, knowledgeable, and clearly takes pride in his work. He was flexible throughout the project as I made a few design changes along the way, and he was always willing to discuss options and offer thoughtful recommendations. What really impressed me was that many of Mike's best ideas didn't increase the cost of the project. He suggested installing a sleeve under the new driveway so I could easily run irrigation or electrical lines to the other side in the future, something I hadn't even thought about before he mentioned it and will almost certainly make use of. He also recommended embedding a drainage pipe beneath one area of the concrete so that, if drainage ever became an issue, it would already be in place and could easily be tied into. He also recommended removing the old porch step to create a seamless, modern transition to the front entry. As we discussed different layout ideas, including curves versus straight runs, he made it clear that the cost would be the same regardless of which design I chose, allowing me to focus on what looked best rather than what cost more. The workmanship was exceptional. The crew was professional, friendly, and obviously very experienced. You could tell these are craftsmen who have been doing this for a long time. They worked efficiently, never seemed rushed, and paid attention to the details. Mike stopped by every day, often multiple times, to check on progress, answer questions, and make sure everything met his standards. The project stayed on schedule from beginning to end, with each phase flowing smoothly into the next. They also went above and beyond at the finish by repairing stucco that had been disturbed during construction, rehanging my gate, and even patching some older stucco adjacent to the project that wasn't really part of the job. The finished driveway and walkways look fantastic and have completely transformed the curb appeal of our home. Just as importantly, the work looks incredibly solid. Even the walkways were built with the same attention to durability as the driveway. Nothing about the project felt like corners were being cut. The price was also very fair. In fact, another contractor I'm working with on a separate project, someone who frequently works alongside concrete companies, told me that the price I paid was very reasonable for the scope of work being performed. I recommend Mendenhall Concrete without hesitation. When I'm ready to tackle the backyard, they'll be my first call.

We had him do it, and he and his crew were able to work on it on the schedule we needed for a reasonable price. Will definitely hire him again anytime I need masonry services!
