DO NOT USE THEM!!!!! Fair warning that you will absolutely regret using these guys, and they shouldn't even be allowed to touch someone's home.
We contacted them after seeing an ad on Facebook for a concrete company as we needed to have some new concrete done in our back yard. This was the worst mistake we could have made since now we have a giant mess that we are stuck with trying to fix.
First everything seemed fine, they gave us a quote after doing a quick site visit and 2 guys showed up a few days later to start work. We were told the project would take 2-4 days to complete. After the first day, where they dug the pit and put the boards in to form the concrete slab we were told they would be back the next day to pour the concrete. Now, I should have known there was a problem when they came in little cars with almost no tools and resorted to using my wheel barrow and hose without asking permission or even letting me know they were needing it. During this time they also did not haul away the old material (old rock and dirt) but said they would remove it in a couple days.
Well it took a week and lots of excuses before they even came back to pour the concrete. When they came, they didn't let us know they were here. The concrete truck showed up and they decided that the best place to pour concrete into the wheelbarrow (MY WHEELBARROW) was right next to my BMW.
After a while I noticed they were here and I went to see how things were going. In the front of my property they had managed to spill a large amount of concrete on some rock. This pile was about 20" in diameter, and they clearly spilled it much earlier because it was evident they rolled the wheelbarrow right over it a few times. There was (still is actually) a trail of wet concrete going up the side of my house now.
I decided to look at my car and noticed they splattered concrete all over it and it was drying. It took me saying I needed the hose to clean their mess of my car for them to apologize and then try to clean my car. So while one guy is cleaning my car the other guy is watching or doing whatever but not working on my backyard where the concrete is now drying.
Eventually they go back to finish the new slab and I periodically check to see the progress. Although it doesn't look great and they've made a giant mess I wait because I don't do concrete and assume they will finish and clean up.
Boy was I wrong. Of the three guys working (the owner of this business, his brother, and another gentleman) the last guy decided to leave and not come back. Well apparently he's the guy who finishes the concrete and Pedro (the owner) tells us he can't finish the job. He didn't say "hey this guy left but I'll get someone here as soon as I can." Nope, he just decided to bail and not finish. He offered a full refund which we accepted and told me he would at least clean up his mess including the concrete spill in the front yard and that he would get a truck here to remove all the old material.
None of that ever happened. They left and never came back.
As you can see from the photos, the concrete looks like s*** and they didn't even put in the relief lines to prevent cracking. They spilled concrete in multiple piles in my backyard which they didn't clean up, they got concrete on my existing patio floor which they didn't clean up and absolutely everything-- including my hose-- was covered in dirt and concrete dust.
It took a couple hours just to clean up what I could but I still have concrete everywhere.
We will be talking to the contractors board and filing a complaint as well as looking at our legal options to get things cleaned and repaired.
Again, these people have no idea what they're doing and shouldn't be anywhere near anyone's home. read more
