Job went great and results are fantastic. Terrance and his workers were on time and worked very hard.
We turned to Angie's List and found, as we often do, that few contractors will return calls for small jobs. I understand that every
business owner must pick and choose the most profitable places to invest their time. Still, it's frustrating to put calls out to 8 contractors who all claim "No job is too small," and be ignored by all but two.
Of the two concrete contractors that returned our call, we chose Terrance Whitaker of Low Cost Concrete. He answered all our questions and showed us that our budget could cover the maximum amount of work we'd hoped to get done. Most assuring of all-- he had excellent references on Angie's List for jobs both large and small. And after working with him, we understand how well-deserved those great reviews are!
From the moment work began, Terrance was on the job, either supervising or working. He sets high standards for his business. He has a great deal of experience and an eye for those details that will result in the best possible job. And he seems to be a great boss. Terrance is respectful of his workmen, and they, in turn, show great respect for him and strive to do a good job to please him.
I didn't know, when I decided where I wanted the patio laid out, that I was creating a difficult situation in that I wanted the patio poured
around an existing driveway and shed and to end right where a line of trees started, in an area where the ground was not at all level. In fact, I didn't understand the difficulties until after the job was complete. I was chatting with one of the workmen about the finished job when he described how difficult it had been to dig out and pour that particular corner. "But that's Terrance," the workman said. "He does whatever it takes to give people what they want."
We found that to be true. From the moment we signed the contract, we had no worries. Terrance took care of everything and the job was done to our complete satisfaction. Two weeks after it was complete, I called out the electrician we use and asked him to place outlets near the new patio. When he looked at the slab, he said, "Whoever did this for you really did a good job grading it so water runs off into the alley. If a slab isn't graded right, runoff can do a lot of damage, especially to your house foundation."
We've had plenty of time to see just how good the grading actually is, as one of the rainiest summers in years has sent tons of water flowing off the patio.Where the runoff would go isn't something we even knew to be concerned about and Terrance never discussed it with us. He simply did what you want a contractor to do--bring his expertise to the job and make sure everything gets done right.
We are so glad we chose Terrance Whitaker and Low Cost Concrete to do this work. We have had many people in the neighborhood ask about the patio and have been recommending Low Cost Concrete to all. Low Cost Concrete is the way to get a great job done at a very affordable price, with no worries!
We've received compliments from friends/neighbors and one who was considering pavers is now reconsidering. This is a "Cool Deck" so you don't burn your feet on it and it's not slippery either. Would recommend and use them again, if needed!
From the beginning Terrance did a great job of explaining what he was going to do as well as providing recommendations to me. Throughout the process he was in close contact about the various stages of the job and his expected completion. I also had other work being done on my pool when Terrance started the job and he actually coordinated very well with the other contractor so that both jobs would get done without me having to be involved. Overall I am happy I went with Low Cost Concrete for this work.
If any of my friends ever ask I will definitely recommend Low Cost Concrete.
Day one framing - Day two pour and finish.
Rain was questionable and after driving off, I assume they saw some clouds that made it appear like more of a possibility. The owner came back and placed plastic over the work as a precaution. It did not rain and it just shows that the owner really wanted me to be happy with the new addition.
BTW - I can micromanage activities such as this one but I was comfortable enough to "stay out of their hair" and let them do their jobs. Overall a great experience and it is refreshing to see such guys exist.
I didn't mind writing the check nor did I get buyer's remorse. Great job Terrance and team! :)
