Ravi picked up and we set an appointment which he arrived to on time. Ravi was considerate and professional, making some great suggestions in the process. Ravi's crew is comprised of some of the nicest people I've ever met. Everyone showed up on time, the work began when Ravi said it would, and the work was completed on the end date we agreed upon at the start. When all work was completed, a thorough clean up was done. Also, as a considerate bonus to us, Ravi gave us the remaining waterproof paint used to seal the cement wall that was built. It was very nice to have experienced doing work with City Suburb, because when you've got people doing a pro job it makes life much less stressful. I've already passed the City Suburb contact information on to a friend who liked the work we had done, and I'm likely going to be calling Ravi back soon to do more work for us.

The owner came back and stated give it two weeks and it should correct itself otherwise he would come back and fix it. Well two weeks came and went and we called them to tell them it still Looked the same. The owner returned and tried to power wash it which did not work either . Apparently his workers laid a tarp over the concrete and the concrete took on the color and patters of the tarp. We have very reasonable and understanding while waiting for them to correct the issue. Meanwhile I keep having to reach out to the owner who decided not to return calls or fix the issue. So we now are seeking legal action and reporting to the better business bureau.

When I bought a condo, Concrete Care removed the cheap vinyl that the previous owner had put on the…read morefloor and replaced it with a gorgeous concrete floor. The work took 7 work days for ~500 square feet, and the whole process took ~2.5 weeks from when I first messaged to when they finished. I messaged through Yelp on a Saturday, and Daniel called me back on the Monday. Jack came out to provide an estimate the next day, and he brought samples of polished concrete so I could pick a color. He gave me two quotes: one for removing the vinyl and just polishing and one for also pouring self-leveling concrete and polishing that. The estimates were competitive with quotes I had received from others, and he sent them through Quickbooks within hours of meeting. We decided that they would remove the existing floor first so we could get a sense of what just polishing that would look like. They also provided a COI promptly once we decided on this plan. Jack had a three-man crew come out the following Monday. They arrived everyday from 9 am to 9:15 am. Within an hour, they had ripped up the baseboards and vinyl floor. The concrete underneath had bubbles, large cracks, inconsistent coloring, and a large stain from previous water damage. The foreman, Alberto, suggested they just pour new concrete, and I agreed. We got Jack on the phone and went ahead with that plan. The crew did a great job putting up plastic to protect the walls and the limited furniture I had in the unit. They also put up plastic in the building hallways and carefully disposed of all debris. And 7 workdays later, the floor looks great! Would definitely call up Concrete Care again for any remodeling that fits their skills. For reference, the four photos are of (1) the living room before removing the vinyl, (2) the living room after removing the vinyl, (3) the completed living room, and (4) the concrete samples in the living room before the work.

Totally discouraged, I called NYP and spoke to Fiaz - - what a helpful and pleasant phone manner. He put me at ease right away and within 15 minutes (!), he had Ahmed come over to see how they could help. Ahmed was very kind, breaking the bad news to me gently. Nothing was salvageable and the entire area had to be ripped out and redone properly. I was concerned at that point, having already sunk money into the existing disaster and not knowing I could afford to have them finish the job correctly. But Ahmed's authentic demeanor earned my trust quickly (not an easy task where I'm concerned, mind you) and the very next day, he came to me with an extremely fair quote that was manageable. As a small business owner myself, I have higher standards than most when hiring (and I'm from the school of "the customer is always right"). There are critical components that make for a truly good business, like honesty, dependability, timeliness, communication, and Ahmed nailed every single one. He was clear, thorough, 100% professional and delivered on everything he promised, AND did it within my specified time frame. My project is finally complete and I couldn't be happier. As it turns out, the old saying is true: the third time really is the charm, all thanks to New York Pavers. I can't speak highly enough of them and you should feel 100% confident in hiring them.

On Saturday August 4, 2012 I met with Joseph Battaglia, the owner of J.B. Custom Masonry & Concrete…read moreregarding an estimate for some masonry work that needed to be done on my house. I explained to him that we were in the process of selling the house and that the purchaser had requested that some repairs be made as per the inspection report. The repairs were minimal in nature such as filling in some loose mortar on the front steps and repairing some concrete that had separated. Mr. Battaglia insisted that more work needed to be done including some brick work. I explained to him that we did not want to do more than was requested by the purchaser and there was no mention of brick work in the inspection report. He insisted that the work needed to be done and quoted me an estimate of $2,800. I did not appreciate Mr. Battaglia's arrogance in telling me what needed to be done and since a previous contractor had quoted me an estimate of $1,000 for the work, I therefore had no intention of hiring Mr. Battaglia for anything. On Monday August 6, 2012 a work crew of six men from J.B. Custom Masonry showed up at my house unannounced prepared to begin work. I explained to them that I had only requested an estimate and did not authorize them to begin work and requested that they leave the premises immediately. I never requested that any work be performed on my property by J.B. Custom Masonry either verbally or in writing. On August 13, 2012 I received by certified mail a notification that a Mechanic's Lien had been filed against my property in the amount of $1,700. This would have to be satisfied prior to closing in order to have a clean title. I have never received an invoice from J.B. Custom Masonry for any alleged work that was performed. This is nothing more than an extortion attempt on the part of Mr. Battaglia, attempting to get me to pay for work that was not requested nor performed. I strongly recommend not doing business with this company.
