Finished stamped concrete

Gabino was professional, prompt and overall excellent! I would recommend him. His workers were on time, cleaned up after themselves and did beautiful work!

Finished product

Gabino and his team did the concreat in the upper teir of my back yard , these men carried hundreds of bags up my steep steps to the highest part of my yard. It was a very difficult part of the yard to reach,but they made it happen. The final result was amazing! Exactly what we wanted, I would use these guys again for sure! Highly recommend!

Conduit installed too close to the edge of slab, already starting to crack within a few weeks of install

We hired Gabino's concrete to put an exterior patio slab next to the side of the house. We also asked him to fill-in an existing planter area and add-in matching patio tiles to match the existing patio tiles. Overall, we were very happy with his and his teams services, however, there were a few areas where we'd like to see improvement: Some areas where they exceeded expectations: - Gabino was responsive and very friendly. I was very happy with his customer service and general demeanor. - Team was professional, timely, and efficient - Work was done on-time and for the agreed-upon amount(s) - Concrete work was very clean and professional. Looks GREAT. - His team was overall, very clean and efficient (very little mess, see below): - The patio tile work was FANTASTIC. You can't even tell that the new area was added... looks like it has always been that way Some areas of improvement I would like them to address: - The carpenters that unscrewed the formwork left screws EVERYWHERE in the yard. I wish I would have caught that prior to issuing final payment to ensure the area was clean. - Some sections of the slab were overpoured slightly past the footprint of the slab and I will need to chip these areas out prior to laying out the turf that will eventually butt up to the new slab. In hindsight, I would have asked for this to be cleaned up - Lots of scrap rock and brick were used as scrap in-fill for a large section of the built-up slab (~10" above nearby grade). This shouldn't have any structural implications, but I wish they would have communicated this so I was aware of this - I had an electrical conduit located in the corner of the slab for future, but in the course of construction, we agreed to change the dimensions of the slab and the formwork team left the conduit dangerously close to the edge of the slab. It has only been a few weeks and the concrete is already starting to crack near the edge where this conduit is. I wish they had brought this up as a concern so I could have had the conduit moved prior to concrete being poured - We are replacing the yard with turf in the future, but there were tire marks left in the yard from the work (the work occurred right after a large rain). I wish the team had asked for permission prior to driving all over the grass and tearing it up (I am sure this was not their intention) All in all, I liked Gabino and his team's work (we are very happy about the overall end product), and I would consider using them again, but I would like them to work on the items above before I would consider hiring them for my next project.

Front sidewalk and wall after sealant

I went looking for a concrete contractor on Yelp, and Yelp did not disappoint! Gabino and his crew did such a great job on our backyard project. I can tell he takes pride in the work his team does. Because we had such a good experience the first time, we have since had him back for two more projects: a wall and sidewalk in our front yard. He is responsive and quick to respond. His team was able to schedule a time to come out quickly.

Modifying the drainage!
Geno U.

Highly recommended! If you have a big or small project contact gabino. Really easy to work with and very professional! They will take your ideas seriously and will suggest based on their experience to make it look a lot better. They work fast and very reasonable price! The crew are very professional and they even clean the site before they left. I will definitely hire them again to do the rest of my yard!

Added small succulents right side.

I found Gabino's Concrete on Yelp with great reviews. He was reasonably priced, and a pleasure to talk with. We started with a small project (7' x 30' patio slab) in our back yard. His team did a great job, and had the work done in a day. Watching his finisher's meticulous attention to detail to make sure it was perfect was like watching an artist. About 2 months later we decided to have them do a stamped concrete retaining wall and sidewalk in our front yard. The wall and sidewalk turned out really well. Gabino and his team really take pride in their work, and I would highly recommend them for any concrete work.

Exactly what we planned.

Gabino's Concrete did a good job. We used him for a large stamp concrete patio area. Nice guy and competitive pricing.

With the heavy rain we recently had, I was in a bit of a bind and needed a retaining wall installed…read moreASAP to keep my fence from falling over. Luis came out right away to provide a quote, which was very reasonably priced. He was incredibly responsive to all my questions and had his crew ready to go as soon as the ground dried out. The team was professional, efficient, and did an outstanding job. They had 4-5 guys on-site and completed a 55-foot-long, 3-foot-high retaining wall in just two days! They also made sure to clean up everything before leaving, which I really appreciated. Luis is awesome to work with, and the quality of the work speaks for itself. I'll definitely be using them for several more projects in the coming months. I couldn't recommend Luis and his team more highly!

Highly recommend! That could be the end of this review! But read on to find out why…read more We initially worked with a landscape architect. We liked the ideas the architect offered but not the cost as quoted by the contractor the architect referred us to. So we decided to contract our own specialists - act as our own general contractor. SD Paverscapes was one of three paver contractors we contacted. Luis was quick to respond and listened to our ideas. He provided us with a plan we loved and a price we could handle. The installation crew was absolutely first rate. It was a pleasure to watch craftsmen apply their skills! The result is fabulous! Honestly, it turned out better than we had imagined! As with ALL contractors, you - as the client - need to always be communicating with Luis. We made slight modifications to our original plan as the work progressed, but they all were fine because we were in constant dialog with Luis.

They also built a flat bad for the air conditioner and were easy to coordinate around with the AC vendor for disconnect/reconnect. Filiberto was friendly to work with and provided a reasonable quote for the work. He gave an itemized quote so we were able to decide what portions of our goal we could achieve with the funding we had available. The final cost exactly matched the quote I received. The team showed up on-time. They were very friendly and required no supervision. The project was cleaned up perfectly when complete. We requested a quote on November 13, began the project on December 10 and did a final walk through on December 30. That was probably a week extended due to delays (with my AC vendor) in moving the AC so the concrete could be poured and the Christmas holiday. I could not be more ecstatic with the final product. We will definitely be using FMJ Concrete again in the future and I highly recommend you do as well.
