"These guys are awesome. Sal and his team cleared sod, leveled, formed and poured a 500 square foot driveway with a retaining curb in one day. Concrete was perfectly jointed and finished. It was a pleasure doing business with Sal, and I couldn't be happier with the results."
"Was quick to respond, come out and quote, and inform us of his process. George called the concrete company so we would know the cost of concrete and gave us the cost of his labor. Crew showed up on time and completed the job in a timely manner. Followed up with completing the clean up and remainder of job. Job looks great and very happy with the service provided. Will absolutely consider again for any more concrete work."
"One complaint. The clean up was not very good. I had to ask that they remove large pieces of concrete that were in flower beds. Also, the new concrete looks messy and I canâ t remove the grate for clean out"

"Mr Beachem has done multiple jobs for me. He has always been professional and courteous. I would recommend him 10 out of 10 times for any concrete needs."
"I highly recommend SSC for your construction needs. If you are looking for quality work with good prices & rely on Steven with SSC! Not only does he do all handyman work he also specializes in concrete."
"Customer service started out good, then plummeted. There was no follow up after the work was completed. The team did not inform us that they were finished. They left huge chunks of debris in the yard, and rocks in the driveway. I thought it was a fair price, but expected better quality for the price."
You can whiten concrete for unsealed and unfinished concrete with a solution or either muriatic acid or bleach and water—but never both. However, if your concrete does have a stain, finish, or polish, keep in mind that these hard chemicals could damage the topcoat. Your best bet otherwise is to power wash outdoor concrete slabs or clean indoor ones with a gentle cleaner such as laundry or dish detergent.
Combined with a cleaning agent, pressure washers and power washers are highly effective at removing driveway stains. However, these machines are not gentle, putting your driveway at risk of damage. Instead of renting a power washer yourself, ask a professional pressure washer for a consultation.
You should never use bleach in a pressure washer. While bleach is effective at killing mold and mildew, it is a potent chemical that can corrode the machine's seals and nozzles, destroying it from the inside out. Additionally, pressure washing with bleach sprays the chemical into the air, which is dangerous if inhaled and can kill nearby plants, flowers, or harm animals that ingest it. If you need to remove mold or mildew, it is best to hire a professional who will use a safe and effective cleaning agent.
The best plan for removing rust stains from concrete is to progressively move from weaker cleaners to heavy-duty acids. Move from dish soap to vinegar to oxalic acid to muriatic acid, stopping whenever the stain is sufficiently removed. This process ensures that only the safest possible methods are used, rather than jumping right into a powerful cleaner that may be effective but unsafe and unnecessary
Experts typically recommend pressure washing your driveway at least once per year to keep it looking great while preventing stains, cracks, and unwanted vegetation. However, if your driveway gets a lot of use, you might want to pressure wash it more often to keep it looking like new.
