Elite Concrete

Last summer when I decided I really needed a 28x16 concrete pad across the back of the house I did my usual routine; contact the top five contractors on Home Stars, advise them I was seeking quotes from another four contractors, meet with them, and then let them provide their quote. Only three of the five responded and Raffy was the first of the three. We scheduled an appointment for a week down the road. Elite Designed Concrete were tops on Home Stars rating last summer so I was glad to schedule the other two contractor before meeting with Raffy. I figured they might offer the best service, but at the highest cost due to their excellent reputation. Not only was Raffy professional, confident and courteous, but I was pleasantly surprised he offered the best price… actually 10% lower than the runner up contractor.

Before work started, Marcelo came by to take exact measurements and plan out the logistics. Work began on the date scheduled. The crew showed up nice and early getting to work without delay. Every crew member was professional, respectful of our property and very friendly. I happened to be moving my heat pump that day (unrelated project) and two of the guys ran over to help as soon as they saw the HVAC tech and me moving it. The project actually finished a day early and looked great. I also received a courtesy call from Marcelo a few weeks later just to ensure I was happy with the result and no issues had come up.

It’s been a few months now and the concrete pad has held up great and despite being a basic brush finish (my choice) it has received many compliments from friends and neighbours. My only regret is not having gone with Elite Designed Concrete earlier. I’m pretty faithful to my system of having the top five Home Stars contractors bid on all my projects but any future concrete work will just go straight to Elite Designed Concrete.
