We wanted a concrete patio in our back garden to resemble square cut limestone. We interviewed four companies and were most impressed with Elite Designed Concrete. Raffy was our first contact and after listening and taking a look at our site, was able to give us a precise idea of what Elite could do for us, show us samples of similar projects they had done and provide a clear estimate of the cost. After we made a small deposit, Marcelo came out in the pouring rain and worked with us to draw out the plan, spray-painting the design on to the area to give us an idea of the final look. He seemed to really want to make a perfect job for us and didn't seem to care that he was soaking wet! I told Marcelo we wanted the patio done by July 11 for a party. Next came a polite and friendly crew of formers and carpenters. They started at 7:30 am and were quiet and respectful of our neighbours as they set up. I was impressed that they were wearing brand new matching Elite t-shirts! They put down boards so as not to trample on the lawn and garden. They asked me questions and made sure the forming was to my satisfaction. They even suggested an improvement and when I agreed, they were more than willing to alter a small section. They helped me visualize different angle measurements in the transition from lawn to patio. Several days later the concrete pouring crew arrived, again at 7:30 am and again wearing matching Elite t-shirts. They also were clean, quiet and respectful. Every effort was made by them to make sure my lawn and gardens were not damaged and that I was happy with the result. The patio looks fantastic, and exactly as we envisioned. It looks every bit like an expensive square cut limestone patio! On July 11, the morning before my party, the guys arrived to backfill around the patio with nice topsoil to make sure it looked complete for my event. I can not tell you how rare and wonderful it is to work with a company that provides such care in the design and execution of their work and delivers what they promise. When they left, the place was spotless. You would never know a large concrete project had been undertaken. Elite is a company that oozes integrity and attention to detail. I would definitely hire them again, in a heartbeat and recommend them confidently. 10/10!
