Parker Concrete

This is an excellent small Company where all the work is supervised by the owner, Dave Parker. The quality of the work was excellent and the price was substantially below that quoted by his competitors. Most impressive however, was Dave's ability to come up with restoration solutions which did not require us to have the old concrete taken out and completely replaced. I have since recommended Parker Concrete to several neighbors who live in our gated community and to other people in San Diego. My wife and I were so pleased with the results and the cost that we have offered to be references for Dave.

Dave and Parker Concrete were awesome. Dave was probably one of the most personable contractors I've worked with. His workers worked hard and the job turned out awesome. Dave's price was a little higher than the competition but still competitive and easily paid for itself in quality. Dave is an honest guy and even pointed out an unnoticeable flaw because he didn't want to hide anything from the customer.

Dave was prompt for the bid. His bid was almost 50% lower than other 2 other bids obtained from local companies on Angies list. He brought his team out for grading and forming for a few hours, and then the team came again a few days later for the pour and surfacing. Everyone spoke english so it was easy to work with them. This was only 1/2 of the job. I have some more prep work before I call them back for the back-yard patio pour. I liked them and plan to hire them back again.

Dave came out and met with me and was very thorough in explaining the correct way to install the walkway to allow for proper house ventilation and yard drainage. He offered me several options in addition to the basic walk and was so honest that he even discouraged me from using a more expensive surface finish that would have been slick and unsafe for our kids. He provided a thorough written estimate by that afternoon. I was shocked at how reasonable he was-we were initially going to use an unlicensed "friend of a friend" that my Mom had used for some work but Dave actually gave us the same price with the piece of mind of using a licensed BBB-member, with great recommendations from Angie's List. The only minor glitch was a minor delay in starting the work due to another job that ran over. But, it was just a couple days and the work was finished in the time frame I needed- before a weekend party. The work was great- they demo'd n one day, poured the next and just came back for about 30 minutes the next day to finish clean up. The walk looks great and we don't have to trip over the warped wood planks anymore. We were so impressed that my mother is calling him to do some work for her. Dave is really a local guy who has been doing this for a long time and is making an honest living supporting his family by doing reasonably-priced, quality work.

Dave did a good job. The stamped concrete was quite eroded in places and he tried to make it look as good as was possible. Of the two options for coverage, he recommended the lesser of the two, saving us $1000.

I called 5 different companies all from Angie's list and only 3 got back to me. Each did an estimate and Dave Parker's was the least expensive and he made suggestions and discussed the project with me, while the others did not. So he got the job. He was fairly flexible in his timing on when to do the job. He was sometimes hard to get a hold of, but he called back within 24 hours. The steps look just right now. I am pleased with his work.

They did quality work and had a good crew that worked very hard. It was nice that they did some special things that we wanted done. They were easy to get a hold of, they came when they said they would and they didn t up the price.
