Reale Cement & Construction

Very well! the work still looks great and it was done almost 2 years ago. They did our patio 12 years ago and it also still looks great.

Virge is wonderful, punctual ,professional and accessible. The crew is very polite and considerate. Believe me...I am picky and Reale cement went far beyond what even I expected. When they left it looked like the whole project just dropped into place without a blade of grass or stone disrupted.

I asked Virgil to let me know before he poured so I could take the day off work and be home. I came home from work and he was done. I had him dye the front porch and patio cement a brown color, with a brick pattern. The porch came out uneven and he had to grind down the cement on it so he ground out the color and the pattern he had just put in, He ran out of the cement and put a step going to the grass????? and none going to the driveway. There was no walkway to the sidewalk. I don?t know what he was thinking making a step to the grass. He came back, at great expense to him (he told me) and put in another step going to the driveway that doesn?t even match. They spread the powder dye on top of my cement, a few days later one of Virgil?s workers came out to power wash it off. The powder went all over my porch/patio overhang and I had to hire a painter to come out and paint because I couldn?t get the dye off. To this day I have cement splashed on my brick that I can?t get off either. I now have a lot of expensive brick work that looks wonderful (Virgil contracted that out) on a bad ugly messy cement job and corroding driveway. My driveway, when wet looks like a broken windshield with a million cracks and is light grey and dark grey. WHAT A MESS. I look at it everyday and it makes me sick. Think about looking at this for many years as it is not cheap to put in cement. Virgil won?t come back to fix this. Another customer of Reale cement stopped by that lived a half mile away and he said he had to take Virgil to court, and I later learned my neighbor told him to leave as he was making such a mess.
