We are very happy we had Concrete Replacement Experts replace our 45 year old crumbling driveway.
We started our journey by reading online reviews of concrete companies in the Edmonton area. We requested quotations from three of the best reviewed ones. All three quotes were competitive but we chose Concrete Replacement Experts because we liked their detailed quote, which laid out the specifics of the demolition and removal of the old driveway and the supply and installation of the new one. Wade came out, explained the process, listened to our ideas and concerns, offered suggestions, and completed the quotation on site. The entire process took about an hour.
The work crew was very professional, friendly and efficient, they demolished our old driveway and removed the debris in two days. Another two days to prepare the ground by framing, installing ground crush, tamping, and installing rebar. Care was taken to ensure proper grading for water runoff and drainage. Rick, the foreman, even suggested replacing our sidewalk with a new one that was up to code. Another day to do the preparation for the new sidewalk and we were ready to go.
They timed the concrete pouring with clement weather, they weren’t in a hurry to get the job done, they waited for as ideal weather conditions as possible. The concrete pouring team consisted of a pumper truck and a two person team to spread the concrete. It took about two hours to pour and spread the concrete and another two to finish spreading and broom it. The husband and wife team were truly masters of their craft, with 55 plus years combined experience. The concrete contractor said “you’re only as good as your last job” - boy, are they good!
The end result was a beautiful new driveway and sidewalk that is the talk of our St. Albert neighbourhood. We couldn’t be happier. We highly recommend this company.
