"It was a big job. Long widened driveway, new bigger patio and front sidewalk. Roger and his crew were friendly, professional and hard working. Roger made sure things were done right. From start to finish, it was all done in a timely fashion, considering we had a lot of rain and had to wait until everything dried out. We remained patient. Divine concrete did an amazing job. We have had a lot of neighbors and just people stop and admire and comment on the workmanship. We absolutely love the awesome job that was done. Reasonable cost. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!"
