"We recently had Rolland Cement do our stamped concrete pool deck and some driveway/sidewalk tear out and replacement. Rolland did our stamped concrete patio a couple years ago and it was awesome so we wanted to match it at the pool. Greg and his crew did not disappoint and the job came out exactly how we hoped. We would highly recommend Rolland Cement for any of your concrete needs."
"The inspector came out and looked at leaking wall and other walls with signs of moisture. He explained in easy terms for me to understand about the project."
"Marco M, Mario S, and Noel G were excellent and very professional. They helped me tremendously and the cement and wall work was excellent. Thank you!!"
"Sadid and crew did excellent job making a sidewalk. They recommended fiber concrete, stronger with less cracking.
Price was good value and project finished quickly and workmanship was excellent.
I can strongly recommend this company."
"I obtained several estimates for repairing a crack in my garage floor. The Lift and Level representative examined the garage and told me that the crack in the floor was a symptom of bigger problems with my garage foundation, and he advised me to look into that before repairing the floor. Subsequent investigations proved that his assessment was correct. (Another concrete leveling company simply gave me an estimate for repairing the floor, which would not have helped at all.) I was impressed with the representative's expertise and honesty, and grateful for his help in determining the correct solution for my problem. "
"Sean and his crew did a fantastic job-came out on time, quickly built a scaffolding and performed the relining in a day and a half (due to curing time). All work was performed with a high level of quality and professionalism. Very interesting and custom tools were used for this procedure. Highly recommended! In fact-I will have D&S out in the Spring to fix some additional masonry issues around the property."
"They were very good, and were the most affordable. Tony was very knowledgeable, and did a very nice job sealing it because they also had to seal the concrete against my brick wall, and actually did it beveled so it'd look nice."
"We selected Arbor Brickworks based primarily on their high rating on Angie's list. Their estimate of the rather extensive work to be done on our three story chimney and rebuild of the courtyard walls and adding limestone caps to both seemed very reasonable. They performed all the work as detailed to us in a highly professional and timely manner and within budget. We give them our highest recommendation because we believe you will experience the same total satisfaction with their work. "
"Lee, Kevin and their crew were a pleasure to work with. After coming to inspect what was needed for our chimney we asked whether they would be able to fix a cemented stone retaining wall that is 10 ft x 25 ft and 2 ft thick. They came up with a plan to totally rebuild the top 2 ft of the wall and repair and tuck point any loose mortar in the lower sections. They thoroughly explained what was happening throughout the whole process and were very honest and fair to work with. The new chimney damper is very efficient and the rock wall looks great. I would definitely work with them again. "
"Colorado Outdoor Services was fantastic. They worked with us to come up with a project design that was within our budget to address erosion on a steep slope and to regrade the front yard. Good communication, and they showed up when they said they would. Worked hard until job was completed. Finished design looks awesome. Thank you!!"
Installation typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the wall’s size and site conditions.
The actual moisture level that is acceptable for your concrete floor depends on what primer or flooring material you plan to install above it. For this reason, you should check the manufacturer’s instructions for the exact details.
Generally, the moisture levels should be 3.5% to 4.5%, although it does vary. Some products can handle higher levels of moisture, so you should always test your concrete before purchasing your flooring materials.
Yes. Foundation walls are always load-bearing.
Newly poured concrete is prone to small, fine cracks within the first 30 days of installation, but most noticeable cracks will disappear within that time frame. If a crack is greater than 1 inch, consider contacting the person who installed your wall to inspect the job.
Concrete walls last anywhere from 30 to 100 years. In many cases, concrete walls will last longer with proper support and ongoing maintenance. Some concrete foundations, for example, could last up to two centuries when properly maintained. Toward the end of its life span, however, it's critical to have a structural engineer examine the concrete wall for potential signs of decay.
