COLUMBIA CONCRETE

COLUMBIA CONCRETE RECENTLY POURED A CONCRETE SLAB FOR A HOT TUB, AND A SIDEWALK FOR OUR RESIDENCE. FROM OUR INITIAL MEETING WITH DAVE, THE OWNER, THROUGH COMPLETION OF THE JOB, EVERYTHING WENT SMOOTHLY AND THE WORK WAS EXCELLENT. DAVE GAVE US SOME HELPFUL IDEAS AT THE INITIAL MEETING, WHICH WE INCORPORATED INTO OUR PROJECT. THE WORK CREWS WERE ALSO SUPER. THE QUALITY OF THE WORK WAS EXCELLENT, AND THEY WERE PERSONABLE, RESPONSIVE AND EXCELLENT TO DEAL WITH. IF YOU WANT AN EXPERIENCED CONTRACTOR WHO DOES GOOD WORK, AT A VERY COMPETITIVE PRICE, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND CONSIDER "COLUMBIA CONCRETE AND STONE."

Dave and crew, Did an outstanding job on my new patio with retaining wall this summer 2022. Their attention to detail with our retaining wall was as if Michelangelo had done it himself. I highly recommend this company, because of there honesty toward customers and outstanding professional work. You will not be disappointed!

Dave came out to give me an estimate in June 2020. The price was right and I requested that the work start when the weather was cooler. I heard back in October when he was ready to go. Our very large driveway was done in 3 days and looks great. It's been a year since the install and the driveway is holding up well.

My home had an old driveway that needed replacement. Thanks to the other reviews on Yelp I decided to contact Columbia Concrete & Stoneworks. The owner provided a competitive estimate and he and his crew did an excellent job in the demolition and replacement of the driveway, sidewalk and side porch. I recommend this company.

Mr. Bell answered immediately and arranged for his crew to solve a problem he’s never seen before...the drop in temperatures cause my sidewalk to swell and I was unable to use the door to get out of my house.

Columbia concrete did a phenomenal job in a timely manner. All workers were courteous and diligent in completing the job and their pricing is incredibly competitive. Would definitely recommend and use again.

Columbia Concrete did a fantastic job with our driveway and walkway repaving. David Bell was a pleasure to work with. He was a stickler for making sure the work was done right and to our satisfaction. He was very involved with the job, and actively participated in the trickier aspects of the work. Ours was a big job, and David kept things moving and completed the work when promised. When he left his team to continue working, he made sure they knew exactly what they were supposed to do. David always returned at the end of the day to check their work. He also checked in with us often to ask and answer questions and make sure we were pleased with the progress. David genuinely cared about minimizing the disruption to our lives during the days of work, and worked with us to make sure our dinner guests could safely come through the main entrance even though our walkway was torn out. When we were uncomfortable with the outlet location of an under-driveway drain pipe, he sent had his team return to extend it until we were satisfied. I felt confident that if we had had any other concerns, David would have taken his shirt off and done the work himself if necessary. to make things right. I highly recommend Columbia Concrete.

Columbia Concrete was terrific! They recommended replacement of just the portion of the driveway that was structurally unsound - saving us a lot of money. They also allowed us to design the shape of the walkway and pulled out the shrubs we no longer wanted. The staff was on time, hard working and extremely courteous. Best of all it all looks great. We would definitely recommend Columbia Concrete to anyone needing the same work done at their house.

It went very well. They did a very good job and I am happy with the work. They started when they said they would and completed the job when they said they would have it finished. Everyone who sees it says they think the company did a good job.

Owner was very friendly and responsive. Work was performed on time and all dates were adhered to. The garage floor was removed and regraded. It was then trowl finished and looked absolutely amazing. The driveway and sidewalk was then removed and regraded. It was brushed finished with all brush strokes going in the correct directions making it look very professional. The sloping of the driveway and walk ways makes the water run off in the correct directions as agreed upon in original contract. Overall I am very pleased. I was very impressed that Dave (the owner) actually did alot of the work himself with his crew.

Extremely well. We contacted Columbia Concrete for an estimate. They came out to visit and we discussed the parameters of the front porch and sidewalk work. They responded quickly with a few different options and pricing for each. When we decided to go with them; they scheduled the work within a couple of weeks and did the job. The results met or exceeded all expectations. All representatives of this company were professional and just pleasant to work with.

If you are looking for a honest contractor to do the job right and provide you the warranty as promised after the full payment is made, then look somewhere else for your concrete work. David and 2 other contractors came out and gave me an estimate. Two other contractors came out and measured end to end to provide me an estimate and David just eye balled it and gave me a rough estimate. I asked him to give me the actual estimate in writing, but he never did nor he provide me with any documents at the end of the work. I found it very shady but he promised and gave me his words that if anything happens then he will take care of it. Long story short, his words mean NOTHING and he left me real bad taste in my mouth. If you do like to read the full story, please see below. First sign of the issue was he wouldn't give me the actual date of the work that will need to be performed. I was trying to be nice to him and be flexible, hoping that will get him the job done right. After 2 months passed, I finally got hold of him and he told me that he can get the job done after 2 weeks. Second sign of the issue was warranty, which is huge. After the first winter passed, new concrete got cracks from end to end forming "X." I called David multiple times and finally got hold of him. He promised that he will come out and look at it, which he didn't for several weeks. I actually found out he did come out after trying to call him numerous times. He said, "I don't like how it got cracked and the reason it got crack because water got underneath it. you need to re-route the water..blah blah.. Either way, I will make it right because I do not like hot it got cracked. I will come out and cut it out then re-pour concrete. However, I am so busy now, I will come out in couple months. I will give my words." After couple months go by, I never heard from him so I called him again and again and again. They started ignoring my calls and never return my calls back. His wife always say, "I will let David know you called and I've been harassing him to resolve the issue." I called him through the entire year of 2016. it is in 2017 and he never kept his promise.

It went wonderfully. They took two days to remove the old concrete and level and frame up for pouring. A third day for pouring and finishing. And one last day to come back an remove the framing and check for issues. The owner was responsive, respectful, and an all around class act.

Our entire process with Columbia Concrete was superb! Great listening and attention to detail, plus a keen sense of what works best for a unique situation. Thank you.

I am happy with the finished project. Dave's crew was very professional and skilled. Dave made some good suggestions to make the driveway look better and I'm glad I took his advice.

It was fantastic, Dave came out gave us a price, then came out and did a fantastic job. We couldn't be happier. Extremely personable, professional, and top notch work. I would recommend Columbia Concrete to everyone I know.

The workmanship is excellent. Modifications were made to accommodate the owner. Every step of the work was explained and questions answered.

Dave, the owner, was great from the start.  He was always very responsive when we called and that was important to us.  He helped us to design the patio and gave suggestions that we would never have thought of on our own.  He gave us all the options but stayed within our budget.  He was extremely patient with us as we were deciding exactly what we wanted.  
Our project posed some challenges because of the grade of our yard and some existing obstacles but Dave had no problem coming up with the right solution.
We did not have a specific date that we needed the job completed which was helpful because the weather did not cooperate in March at all.  
We are looking forward to spending days in the sun and evenings by the fire pit!  Thank you Columbia Concrete!

Dave and his men were extremely professional.  This was the second time I've used Columbia Concrete for outside work to my house.  They were able to complete the job in one day and put my worries at ease.  I was very happy with the work they performed and would use them again in the future.

Dave came out and provided an estimate for replacing a concrete step where the corner had broken completely off, and replacing a sunken slab of concrete. He explained he would replace the cracked step and the second step above it. The concrete slab next to the adjoining sidewalk had settled and water would pool in the area and freeze during the winter which created a hazard. Dave explained he would demolish the existing slab and build another which would be reinforced with rebar and attached to the adjoining slab.

His crew arrived on time and completed the job professionally. The quality of the work is excellent and we are very happy with the results.    

We were extremely happy with the service.  Dave Bell suggested that we curve the sidewalk and widen it slightly which was a great idea.  Also, they had to remove one of our plants and when the work was done, they replanted it!  They did a fabulous job and we will definitely be using them the next time we need concrete work done.

Explained the process from start to finish, describing all work and materials to be used. Work crew was efficient and hardworking - didn't waste time; cleaned up after work each day. Very focused on quality and appearance of the finished concrete work. David Bell, owner, was on site each day work was done.

Everything went extremely well.  Water had been pooling where the driveway and garage meet for years.  The driveway was not sloping down all the way to the street so water would not go away from the house when it rained.  The concrete in our garage was severely cracked and water was going underneath the driveway causing foundation issues.  A structural engineer gave us some recommendations on fixing these issues.
When I called Columbia Concrete to get an estimate, David ended up coming out that same day.  He was very knowledgeable about our problems and had a lot of suggestions as to how to fix them.  We had other estimates that came in higher and did not exactly target all that we needed done to solve our water problems.  
David was on site during the concrete removal process and showed me as they were taking out the old concrete why we were having the problems we did.  Most of the previous construction was done incorrectly.  He is very personable and is able to talk in laymen terms since this is the first time I've had to deal with concrete issues with my house.  He even gave us suggestions on other things to do to our house to keep water away.  
The new garage floor looks great.  The driveway is sloped down towards the street now so when it rains water goes away from the house.  We are hopeful that our water problems are behind us.
I would definitely recommend Columbia Concrete and use them again for future projects if they arise.

I needed to redo my back yard and decided to add a concrete pad. I called Columbia Concrete for the job they responded and David came over to give me an estimate. After working on all the permits for it the company started the work however there were a couple delays due to rain. Overall the did a great job.
