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.

Action was generous with their time & offered a couple suggestions on how to deal with the problems. While not in their normal scope they referred me to a company who could look at it for me.

I have not used Eric's so I can't totally comment on everything they do, however they are working…read moreon my next door neighbors house. 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.

Beware! We were referred to Alamode concrete from a friend…read moreto do our walkway and front steps. What a disaster the concrete did not even last a season it all cracked and the front steps were not level. also they did not clean up after themselves forms from walkway and steps were thrown across the road in the grass and they had the powder all over the front of our house, windows, front door and in the garden and eave trofts. Cigarette butts all over the yard. took us 3 days to clean up after them. Not impressed. We then contacted Jay that Year as it all cracked and he said he would look at it in the Spring. The second time they redid the concrete it all cracked again in the same places. We notified Jay again and he then came and said they would redo it all and make us happy! We tried to get hold of Jay all summer no answer then he texted us late fall and said he wanted $16,000 dollars to redo the walk way & front steps. Great Warranty! Very disappointed with the results & the photos we have will show the mess they made of our steps and walkway. We are now left with a front walkway & Steps that are not level, cracked & looks terrible at our front entrance way. Steve & Jane Laughlin Kinburn

We worked with Alamode Concrete September through October last year to get a pool installed. It…read morewas a very disappointing experience and I would not recommend working with them. Alamode was difficult to work with, would agree on things verbally (the location of the pool for example) and then just do something else resulting in rework. They did excessive damage to our neighbor's property, including removing sod well past the property line even after I marked where it was for them. They lack internal communication and so you would speak to one person about what type of stamp to use on the concrete and someone else would do something different, the colouring all had to be redone because of an apparent lack of clear direction to staff from management. They sloped the concrete towards my house instead of to the side as agreed and it is completely uneven and they did not even follow the forms they installed. The pool itself has scratches to the finish from installation, is not properly back filled and is hollow under the stairs, the coping stone coming detached and now at various angles, and the skimmer is not properly supported. The start up for the pool was poorly done, it was not properly cleaned, there was not enough salt added for the chlorine generator to even work so there was essentially no chemicals in the pool, no instructions on how to use the equipment, and I had to figure everything out myself. While I would like to share something positive I unfortunately can't, and I would advise against considering them. I would also avoid Aquarino pools, as that is who I contacted for a pool and Alamode Concrete was their authorized contractor, and they have not offered any support when contacted.
