Partial Driveway Replacement

Hired Concrete Innovations to replace ~350 sqr ft of damaged exposed aggregate driveway. Chris's quote was competitive so I selected them based on the positive feedback on Homestars and their availability.

Mario did almost all of the work and I couldn't be happier. He did all the work per the 4-day schedule set out at the start of the job. He completed each step with expertise and I felt very confident in his work. The worksite was left clean.

My biggest concern I had with a partial replacement was a poor match to the existing 30-yr old driveway, but the match ended up better than I expected. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these guys to a neighbor or friend.

Concrete patio

Backyard patio. Initial quote and meeting was timely and professional.

Finished product is not what we had wanted. Dual coloring is blotchy and does not look like requested finish. When framing in the patio, they did not do a separate frame by the deck, concrete has seeped through the deck boards which will make it very difficult to remove the deck at a later date. When concerns were raised - we were told nothing could be done. Correspondences were professional but the job does not meet high standards we were led to believe this company could deliver. Looks like amateurs completed the job.

The backing of the deck was discussed prior to install. You said that you would be altering the deck and did not want to pay extra for us is disassemble the deck and add the extra form.
As for the coloring, concrete and associated products are natural products and will never look exactly the same as a picture. I'm sorry you weren't happy with the final coloring. Once the color fades, your welcome to try to get the color to look the way the like.
We work with a highly experienced and professional team. The person who did your coloring is a specialist who only does sealing and coloring, so I'm confident it was the best possible job. If, in a few years you get it redone and feel it is significantly better than ours, please feel free to email me, so we can come see it and adjust our methods if needed.

Sidewalk at our home

Chris from Concrete Innovations did a great job quarterbacking this project. We had a relatively simple project at two different areas on the side of our property.

I was particularly impressed with how Chris managed part of the job that didn't go as planned. Concrete is in short supply these days, and the building of the forms and pouring of the concrete happened before they could be inspected for correctness. We ended up with a different shape and incorrect finish in the alley. Chris dealt with it promptly, offering to discount the job or to have the incorrect portion removed and replaced with what we had originally asked for. In the end, they cut and jackhammered out the incorrect section and poured a new section of the shape, size, and finish that we wanted. Ideally, it would have been done correctly the first time, but I think with concrete in short supply these days it creates some scheduling challenges. In the end, they made it right.

Overall, the job was done well and we ended up with exactly what we wanted. We're very pleased with our sidewalk.

Concrete steps to front door

The front steps that they poured up a hill to my front door are stunning.
Everyone walking by comments on it. Sam provided a very detailed, no-nonsense quote, patiently answered all of my questions and ensured that I had clear expectations of what the job would entail. This was NOT the case with other companies that I contacted for quotes. The job was completed within the targeted timelines. The project manager, Chris, and the crew, led by Frank, were efficient and professional. The final cost was exactly what had been quoted, and was less than half the cost of the quotes I received from other companies. And again, the final result is really stunning! I will upload a photo when the landscaping around the steps is completed.

Sidewalk Replacement

We needed some advice on what to do with our ugly sidewalk. Contacted Concrete Innovations based on the satisfaction reports from clients. We were not disappointed. It was a small project and they took the time to help us out. The team was awesome, professional and cleaned up the site.
Would recommend to anyone that needs concrete work done.

Exceptional Service, Exceptional Results!

We are extremely impressed with every aspect of dealing with Concrete Innovations. We found them on line and after a little research, we reached out for a quote. From there everything went incredibly fast and smooth. Mario was able to assist with our design (front walk, lower patio, stairs, side walkway, back transitional walk and large step). The team's work ethic blew us away- they were dedicated and focused and drove to the beautiful walkways we now have- they know their trade! Having seen the immense difference, we're now planning the next phase to have a large back deck and hill stairway poured. We do not hesitate to recommend Mario and his team- you won't be disappointed!

Thank you! We know that time is the most valuable gift you can give, and we absolutely appreciate you giving some up to write us this review. From the initial conversation, the connection was warm and wonderful. You guys were a dream to work with and I (Mario) am so grateful to have met you. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversations that went way beyond concrete work and will always consider you friends before clients. I look forward to seeing you again sometime soon! Oh yes, also the concrete work turned out very well and I hope you enjoy it for many years to come! Talk soon.

Concrete Driveway and Sidewalk

Once the job was started Concrete Innovations was prompt in returning calls and emails. The quote was very reasonable. The work was well done and any questions during the project were addressed immediately . When the job was completed, I was impressed with the crew's detailed clean up and attention to details.

I would not hesitate to recommend Mario, Carter and his crew for any concrete work.
