    NC Cement Contractors. Talented team. Great work.
    Mike P.

    We needed a new patio poured. My wife is a high end interior designer and saw Nick's work at a client's house. She loved the detail work on the aggregate surface. Nick's team did our job and it's a five out of five. Great team and near perfect work. His team has been together for years and speak highly of their boss. They all know their jobs and work in concert. And they clean up thoroughly after they finish too. Friendly, honest and talented. Not your average contractor.

    I hired NC Cement for a full job of replacing my driveway, sidewalks and patio, with added patio area. I was overall satisfied with the job with the exception of destroyed lawn where they cleaned their cement saw off and left the wet cement to harden and kill the grass. There were smaller issues with what they left behind that I looked past because the job was done and it looked great after I repaired the area around their work. I also was quoted $16,000 for the entire job, but agreed to pay him an additional 1280 because he said he had additional costs because he had to rent a saw to cut the patio because of wire mesh in the pour and fixing my sprinklers he had to move. I was not happy about charging me more for him to rent a saw for something he should have known about, but I paid him and figured it's done. I also remember having a problem with the sealing they did on the exposed aggregate because it was blotchy, he said it was because they were using a new one coat process, even though my quote stated 2 coats of Vex-con sealer. The nails that were pulled but left all along the pour. (more than a hundred because I had to pick them up) Even then, I was overall happy with the crew and the job they did, with all of that and the mess left behind. I wasn't even especially concerned with a couple of cracks that appeared the next spring. Cement does move and even though one winter showing cracks was a bit concerning, the cracks were in area's that did not concern me and they were fine in nature. But now less than 3 years later I have spalling starting on my cement driveway on 4 slabs, 2 slabs are extremely bad. Spalling occurs when too much water is in the mix of cement or overworking the concrete finish by adding water. I called on Monday April 27 but did not leave details as to what the call was about and got a return the following morning. After explaining to the woman on the phone the issue, she said. Oh, you're saying for a job we did almost 3 years ago you have a problem? I said yes, I am calling about cement that the finish should last for at least 20 years. She gave me an email address and told me to send her the photo's. 3 days pass and I'm getting a bit upset, so I call and ask her if she got my pictures, then she tells me, oh I haven't checked my email in days. She then checks her email and says she got them. I asked her to please have someone call about this. That was Friday and it is now Tuesday afternoon. Bottom line when you have work to do, they respond to get your money, but if problems arise they forget you. Not a stand-up or trusted company does this. I am now seeking my options with Michigan BBB and legal rights. Please, do yourself a favor and avoid the cost of doing business with this company. They are not customer friendly, unless you have a checkbook in hand. I have never used salt on my driveways and I also have had other complete pours done in my lifetime and never have I seen anything like this in less than 3 years. I have posted photo's of the cement they have left me with after 2.5 years. I now have to contact a reputable company to replace at least 4 slabs and now I see others that seem to be forming the same look. I am distraught by what this company has done and how it handles it's business. This guy reminds me so much of many of these businesses that are always looking for a way to cut corners and that have the attitude "I have your money, why are you bothering me now that I say it's done?" They also have another philosophy which is typical of these types of businesses, which is "Don't respond and it goes away" Do yourself a favor and steer clear.

    This is how NC Cement's stamped concrete looks after a few summers.  TERRIBLE!   DO NOT hire them!

They did a poor job at plowing the snow which is what resulted in all of this ice as well as the lack of salt that they put down. Very unhappy with the work that was done.

They completed the project in record time, even fitting me in ahead of schedule, which was a huge relief considering spring rains were on their way. The crew was fantastic--professional, friendly, and respectful of my property. They communicated with me every step of the way, answering all my questions quickly and thoroughly, sending me photos of the work to assuage any concerns. It was clear that they take great pride in their work, and they left my yard in perfect condition, cleaning up meticulously after the job was done. One wrench in the project was that I had an invisible fence line that ran through multiple areas of excavation, and I knew there was no chance that line wasn't going to be cut. What really blew me away, was that Cristian went out and repaired the damage and the line works perfectly again; talk about above and beyond! A week later, the drainage system works perfectly, and my yard is shockingly dry considering the recent heavy rain. I highly recommend Hills Excavation for any complicated and muddy yard-related needs--they exceeded my expectations in every way and I'm glad I no longer feel like Shrek telling people to, "get out of my swamp!"

From…read moreupdating, maintaining and servicing 3 fireplaces in a historic home to helping us vent our kitchen stove in our hearth the entire team from quoting to scheduling to actual work has been wonderful to work with. The first thing I noticed right away is they actually answer their phone when they call so that was already a plus for me. I was able to schedule an estimate quickly and get someone out to help us address our main issue which was our kitchen not venting correctly, in addition to a fireplace that we would soon need because of the cold Detroit winter. As a new homeowner, we did want to make sure that the fireplaces were in good working condition before we actually started using them so we requested a estimate on what the service and maintenance could potentially be for the fireplaces that we had in our house and any recommendations that they would have. The process was very straightforward. They easily walked us through the quote and what was needed and why, in addition to what the current condition of the fireplace was in to what would need to be done and how it would fix the problem as well as what comes after the service what could be expected what they would be able to help us with should we come across any hiccups after the fireplace maintenance and what warranties came with the products that we purchased. We purchased dampers some gas fire logs, and had our fireplaces updated so that we could use them last winter. From there coming this winter, we assumed that we would have to have the fireplaces serviced again because it was a new year, though we only had a handful of fires in the living room fireplace they scheduled the appointment. They were prompt and scheduling, as well as coming out for service and transparent enough to say we haven't used our fireplace enough to fully warrant a cleaning. This was refreshing to see this type of honesty from a contractor. Then we ended up having an issue with the smoke coming into our house on our serviced fireplace. They were able to address solve an analyze, the reasons why the smoke was coming in to our living room, though everything looked up-to-date and ready to go. It was next level problem-solving skills that they would rarely run across because of the unique fireplace that we had in our Historic house. It was very appreciated that they did not just give up and ask us to spend a gazillion dollars to throw money at a problem. I highly recommend Detroit City sweep for the professionalism the availability, and of course, the quality of the work.
