They had good ideas, but their ideas didn't work in our situation. They seemed to want to renovate our kitchen the same as the previous one they did, including materials, even though I kept telling her exactly what I wanted. One of the drawings blocked the doorway and did not take into consideration that there was a brick wall there that we had no intentions of moving. When I told her this, she kept arguing with me and then asked me to take pictures of the wall and e-mail them to her, even though they had already taken pictures. She obviously didn't think that the wall was where I told her it was.
We paid $1200 up front for her to do the designs. When we finally got so frustrated, I called and told her that we were not going to be able to work together. She asked what I would like to do and I asked if we could get some of our money back. She said she would give us half of our money back. I was glad to at least get some of the money back, but spent $600 for nothing, except a lesson learned.
I don't know what the answer is. I realize that a designer can't give you a design and take a chance on not getting paid for it, but I know that we will never give anyone that much money upfront again.

Concrete Wall Construction reviews from real Angi homeowners in Mermentau, LA
I received a call from Mr.Harold Early part of September we met up and he gave me a quote around September 8 or ninth. We agreed on the price for two 8 x 10 slaps for a patio which he stated needed one and a half yards of concrete per slack total $4080. I decided to continue the patio to...
I have intended to write this review for some time. Eric Vansickle and his crew did a excellent job. He designed the new slabs to fit our idea of how to create a "yard room" using our patio. We had a serious yard drainage problem with water coming to the house when it rained. He gave us...

I used CTI of Acadiana for decorative concrete. They are very professional as far as doing the bids. As for doing the work it was quick and the results were beautiful and as described.

FAQs for concrete wall construction projects in Mermentau, LA
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
Concrete repair costs range anywhere from about $0.10 to $0.15 per linear foot to fill minor cracks, to about $6 to $14 per square foot to replace damaged concrete slabs. Repair costs vary widely depending on the size and type of work needed. For example, replacing 100 square feet of driveway will cost between $600 to $1,400, on average.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.
Concrete contractors typically charge anywhere from $6 to $14 per square foot. Cost factors include job size, site prep, base material, accessibility, your location, concrete finish, and concrete thickness. Removal of existing concrete, asphalt, deck, pavers, and grass will cost anywhere from $1 to $6 per square foot. Homeowners can often save money by removing and disposing of existing pavers, decks, and grass. Breaking up and hauling away concrete and asphalt is difficult and time-consuming without the proper equipment and may be worth having the pros do that work.
