"Contractor was chronically late for all appointments by 2-3 hours. He stayed and worked well into the evening, even in the dark. I appreciate that he got it done eventually, but did not like having someone there till 9:30 at night. He did a good job on the concrete stairs - they look great. He left a mess in my basement when he repaired the front stoop. He also used a folding chair in my basement to stand on without asking - it is now a mess. For the wood railing on the back stoop, I specifically asked for a 4-5" space to be left under the bottom of the railing so I could sweep snow off in the winter. I also wanted the railing going down the stairs. At first, he did not want to do this (said something about code did not require it for the 3 steps going up) but it was part of the estimate that I approved. I asked him to fix the space under the railing and put on the railing for the stairs. He did come back and fix all to my satisfaction. Very nice guy, just not punctual or professional.

"We are incredibly please with the quality of concrete work done for our patio. The guys contracted to come out got the project done in less than 3 days. They were here before 7 am and worked hard. Even with the heavy machinery they used, they were very considerate and laid down boards to drive on, resulting in absolutely no damage to the yard. It turned out lovely. I do not feel as satisfied with the quality of work on the mulch beds. From a quick glance, the dark mulch and healthy plants look nice, but a good portion of the grass around the mulch beds was trampled down to solid dirt, the natural edging now looks like the mulch edge is just a bunch of dirt everywhere. When I water the plants in the beds, the mulch is thin enough around some plants that it is just solid mud (it is thicker in other areas). One of the beds installed was supposed to be a straight 3ft wide up to an A/C unit and get wider to be around it. They were unable to make a straight line in the edging and the bed goes from 3 ft to a quick 2ft and then around the A/C. It looks sloppy, not aesthetic. One of my popup drains was not installed to be flat with the ground, it's cover has been broken barely two weeks later. I had asked and payed for all the stumps and old bushes to be removed from the mulch bed, there have now been four stumps with green shoots I’ve noticed coming up through the mulch. Turns out they left them and just covered them with dirt and mulch. Also, the Red Dragon Red Maple tree that was put in is pretty, but for $300, I thought it would be taller than 4.5’ tall. I called the owner with my concerns before constructing this review, he did not have very good customer service. He dismissed all my concerns and said that it was to be expected with landscaping and construction. But, his own cement crew was able to show how little damage can be made by being considerate with heavy construction equipment. He said he would come out to look at the forgotten stumps in the mulch and was defensive about the popup drain that was damaged. He insisted that they were even with the ground surface. He did send someone out the following week to remove additional stumps…he removed one. $7084"

"I have been getting a house ready to sell.  In the past year, Steve Cichos resurfaced stairs, repaired cracks in a cement porch and resurfaced it, and tore out and replaced a large portion of my driveway.  He really works hard to do quality work.  His prices are really reasonable.  So when an buyer's inspector discovered leaks around my chimney, Steve tore down multiple courses of brick to get to the suspect area, replaced the brickwork, added new flashing and installed a raincap.  The brick work is just beautiful.  He does a lot of his work between his regular jobs, so you'll want to plan in advance.  He is good about forecasting when he can get to a job, and is especially good about communicating any delays in starting.  Once he starts, he gets the job done as planned.  He keeps in touch by phone on a regular basis if you can't be there.  One thing that I really like about him is that he has his kids help him out.  He has taught them a great work ethic, and they are learning the trade as they go. "

Concrete Resurfacing questions, answered by experts

Ensures smooth finishes and extends the life of surfaces.

Concrete resurfacing is the process of applying a new, thin layer of concrete over an existing concrete slab to enhance its appearance and durability. The terms 'concrete resurfacing' and 'concrete overlay' are often used interchangeably, though the exact meaning can vary between contractors. Generally, both refer to applying a layer of pre-blended concrete, typically between 1/4-inch and 1-inch thick. Some contractors may use 'overlay' to describe a thicker application that adds structural integrity, while 'resurfacing' might refer to a thinner, more cosmetic layer. This process is a cost-effective alternative to completely replacing the concrete, as it uses significantly less material than pouring a new 4-inch slab. Resurfacing also provides an opportunity to add new colors or stamped textures. Other names for this process include concrete restoration, concrete refinishing, and concrete rejuvenation.

A resurfaced concrete driveway typically lasts between 8 and 15 years, with an average of around 10 years. The actual lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the original concrete, how well the resurfacer was applied, the amount of traffic it endures, and the local climate. Exposure to intense sunlight, rain, snow, and frequent temperature fluctuations can weaken the surface more quickly. To prolong its life, you should reseal the concrete every one to three years and patch any small cracks as they appear.

Concrete leveling is not typically covered by insurance. In some cases where the shifting concrete is caused by a natural disaster or storm, you may be able to file an insurance claim if your policy specifically covers those circumstances. In most cases, though, you’ll pay out-of-pocket for concrete leveling.

You have different options depending on the scale of repair needed. If you are repairing minor cracks that are between ¼ inch to 1.5 inch wide and less than half an inch deep, a self-leveling polyurethane sealant would be your best choice. Polyurethane sealants dry to the touch within one to two hours. Since they come in a tube applier, you also have the option to complete the repair without emptying out your garage.
