"David and Paul installed eight pin piles and raised the rear foundation footer/wall correcting sticking doors and cabinets as well as closing cracks in block walls in a professional and courteous manner during the allotted time on the dates promised."
"Great/now walk around our home and pool--flat pavement and no broken steps. Before and after photos are available. Team cleaned up when done-so you would not know work had been performed! Neighbors said the walkway was great and accompanying small garden wall preserved the original natural look of our backyard"
"Responsive and professional. Owner provided timely quote that was fair and reasonable. Very capable and competent - they came with right equipment and good crew. They said what they would do, and they did what they said. Bonus - no deposit requested until job was complete and we were satisfied. Job started on a Thursday, completed and cleaned up on next Tuesday. I would definitely hire them again, and refer them to anyone in need of concrete work."

Professionals provide long-lasting, structurally sound, and aesthetically appealing concrete surfaces tailored to business needs.
Most of the time, you or your contractor will spray the concrete form and framework with a release agent or oil to prevent sticking. This is common practice with wood and steel forms. For insulated concrete forms, the styrofoam formwork often remains in place after construction, so you don’t need to treat it beforehand. Foam concrete forms made out of melamine also may not need treatment beforehand, as the material naturally won’t stick to the concrete after it’s cured.
Concrete houses cost 10% to 20% more to build than stick-built homes, and maintenance on home systems is more invasive and expensive due to pipes and wires being buried in concrete. Concrete homes can also look more industrial and less comfortable if you don’t cover the concrete with finishing materials. It’s also more challenging to make changes to concrete, so reframing doors and windows or building home additions will cost more. Concrete needs time to cure, too, so the timeline to build a house out of concrete is a bit longer.
Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.
Concrete walls last anywhere from 30 to 100 years. In many cases, concrete walls will last longer with proper support and ongoing maintenance. Some concrete foundations, for example, could last up to two centuries when properly maintained. Toward the end of its life span, however, it's critical to have a structural engineer examine the concrete wall for potential signs of decay.
