First, I live in an area that is known to have high levels of radon gas, so I put down a 6 mil plastic vapor barrier on top of the base course of gravel. Chamberlain Concrete then added rebar, tied it together and supported it with rebar chairs (supports). The rebar chairs were inappropriate for the application and had narrow feet, that when the crew stepped on them, punctured holes in the vapor barrier, everywhere. (There are rebar chairs available locally that clamp on the rebar and have about a 2" round disc that supports it on the ground. ) I then came in behind them, myself, and repaired all of the MANY holes in the vapor barrier with Duct tape. On the day of the pour, I asked the crew to not step on the rebar, as it caused the rebar chairs to puncture holes in the vapor barrier. They acknowledged my request and proceeded to step on every single piece of rebar they came across. Not only pushing the rebar to the bottom of the slab, but also puncturing holes in the vapor barrier. Awesome. On the first test, my radon level was 200 times the EPA recommended level. Now that's professionalism. About 6 weeks later, it was time to pour the floor of my garage. They were scheduled to pour on a Wednesday, and I traveled into town on Tuesday night to be present for the pour. When I landed and turned on my phone, I got a voice mail saying they had to cancel and reschedule for Friday. I was unable to stay for Friday as I had to be at work, 300 miles away. The description I then got of the day of the pour came from my framing contractor. He relayed that all of the concrete was delivered at once, for what is a 2,000 sq ft garage floor. (4 car garage + a mud room). Some of the concrete sat for a couple hours in a heap while they worked concrete in other areas of the garage. When it was all done, I had large cracks and heaving fault lines in one stall and the mud room. Absolutely horrible. I was sucker enough to allow them back to complete my driveway and sidewalks a couple months later. Fortunately for me they stood me up twice more and I never called them back. I had another concrete contractor finish the job, who did excellent work. That gave me even more remorse for not using them in the first place. Avoid Chamberlain Concrete and Jensen Concrete and Construction if at all possible."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/id/idaho-falls/chamberlain-concrete-inc-reviews-7353027.htm"},"position":10}]}

"After setting an appointment for peicing wct waited over a month for the appointment only to get a text less than 24 hours before the set time saying it would need recheduling. Was told he would contact me in a Day or two to rechedule. I reitterated how dire the itutoon was but never heard from them again. Just left us wondering and wasted 5 weeks inthe process. Our home is in jeopardy of complete failure. Doors windows, plumbing and electrical are sustining more damage by the day. Th reason given for the "rescheduling" was "they had storms the day before the appointment, but the stronger storms were here by far. Houma didnt get nearly what we did, and wasnt close."

"When we first moved into our home, our backyard was sad and pitiful. The "steps" attached to our back patio door were probably unsafe at best. We contacted DJ Construction thinking we wanted a deck built. Darwin came over and consulted with us and suggested possibly pouring a stamped concrete patio instead. (We NEVER even considered that before) He showed us some ideas and how he could make it work for us and we loved the idea! We also had dogs and it allowed them to keep the space they needed to run around our yard still without a deck taking up space they couldn't be on. We couldn't be more pleased with the results! Our backyard is now our oasis! The concrete patio has given us MORE living and useful space than any deck would have. People are shocked to find out what's behind our gates. Lol The bonus is we know we have something beautiful and unique to our neighborhood. So when it came time to have a part of our driveway repaired and some front of the house beautification work done to our walkway, there was no doubt who we were going to call. Again DJ Sutton did not disappoint. Darwin is officially our go-to person for any work we need done from this point on."

Concrete Finishing questions, answered by experts
Investing in stained and sealed concrete can be worthwhile and may catch the eye of potential homebuyers during resale. The look is sleek and modern, allowing new buyers to envision a versatile list of home decor options. Stained concrete floors are also easy to maintain and feature a custom look that stands out compared to gray, unsealed concrete surfaces.
Gray is always a safe bet when painting concrete countertops, since concrete is a variation of gray. You may also choose black or white, but those are much starker colors that only do well in certain kitchens.
The life span of a painted concrete driveway can vary based on several factors. When properly prepared, primed, and painted with high-quality concrete paint, a well-maintained driveway can last 5 to 10 years or more. Other factors like climate conditions, traffic volume, and lack of maintenance also impact life span. Regular cleaning, resealing, and touch-ups can extend the longevity of a painted concrete driveway, ensuring it remains both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
DIY is possible for basic finishes. Professional services ensure a polished, durable result for decorative or complex finishes.
You can pour concrete over existing concrete and then stamp it to create an overlay. The old concrete must be prepared correctly for the new concrete to adhere properly and create a strong, stable surface. Stamping the new concrete creates a patterned finish that adds visual interest and an upscale feel.
