The plastering job was so well done that there is no trace of it. They returned the following day to paint.
The only problem was that the painter was using some generic paint was unlabeled and he didn't know exactly what the finish would be. I had specifically requested (both on the phone and that morning) that the finish be like the existing semi-gloss or satin. It turned out that the finish was flat. When I notified the owner of this, he was extremely willing to come back and repaint the ceiling, even though, I said "nevermind". He insisted because he wanted me to be completely satisfied. So the next day the two workman returned to repaint the ceiling. I declined because I had guests coming and it seemed like too much trouble.
Overall, I was extremely satisfied with the workmanship, I can't imagine a better quality job.

Trace was the only one who came up with a solution that did not interfere with the patio being poured. His estimate was in line with the other contractors but their solution would have cost more in coordination with the concrete contractors. Trace was very accommodating and helpful.

Concrete Finishing reviews from real Angi homeowners in Paragon, IN
We wanted to make our small existing 10x12 patio bigger so we have more outdoor living space. We weren't sure exactly what we wanted to do but just knew it was too small for us. Decorative Edge Curving helped us with the design of the new patio extension so it won't be a boring rectangular...

"Provided estimate for project, and scheduled appointment to come do the work. Night before, cancelled and rescheduled for the following week. Did not confirm appointment when requested, and no showed. Very poor experience, do NOT recommend as clearly very unreliable. Estimate amount and expectations for completion sounded great, but the rest of the experience was grossly unprofessional and extremely disappointing."

"If you want the best looking patio on your block then CD & Son Concrete Inc is who you need to call! We just recently had them pour our back patio and add concrete onto our driveway. From getting the quote to getting the work completed, the communication was top notch and very professional. The owner Dean walked me through every step and even made sure to lay wood down to protect our lawn! Dean also has the best concrete stamper around Chris! It was worth every penny for them to get this completed. Our kids and family love it already so much! The pictures of the patio says it all and they don't even give it justice the work that was put into it! I want to add that others have added concrete onto their driveways in my neighborhood, but ours is the only one that matches our driveway perfectly in color and texture! So I highly recommend them for all your concrete needs!"

They only complaint is they promised to level out the dirt displaced when removing and leveling the sidewalk and did not. They were also a bit sloppy and got globs of concrete on the asphalt driveway that was left to dry."

Concrete Finishing questions, answered by experts
After you install your concrete steps, and even as they age, applying a coat of paint or concrete sealer to them every one to two years is a great way to keep them looking fresh and new. We also recommend doing light concrete step repair if you notice chipping or crumbling. You can dress up your steps with planters, decorative railings, and other decor to breathe new life into your stoop as well.
With the proper equipment, individuals can DIY smaller applications, though larger projects fare better with professional handling.
Yes, with decorative options like stamping or staining available.
You can whiten concrete for unsealed and unfinished concrete with a solution or either muriatic acid or bleach and water—but never both. However, if your concrete does have a stain, finish, or polish, keep in mind that these hard chemicals could damage the topcoat. Your best bet otherwise is to power wash outdoor concrete slabs or clean indoor ones with a gentle cleaner such as laundry or dish detergent.
Yes, you should seal your exposed aggregate concrete to keep it protected from the elements and reduce the risk of cracking and concrete spalling. You’ll need to invest in the cost of resealing your concrete about every three years to keep it in good condition. Unsealed exposed aggregate concrete is susceptible to water damage, stains, chips, cracks, and abrasion. Sealers are available in various finishes and levels of gloss. Outdoor exposed aggregate concrete should be sealed with a non-yellowing, UV-resistant sealer to preserve the look of the finish.
