He also pays special attention to assure that you are left a happy customer. He is also very fair in terms of price. That said, the quality of work was not up to par and we would not re-hire Ward for future work. In fact, we cut the project list short as a result of the quality of work. To be specific, Ward did a great job with the mudding and patching of our wall after removal of a medicine cabinet. He also did a good job re-adhering our above microwave cabinet to the wall and installing a new doorbell. Unfortunately, there's a longer list of items we are not as pleased with: 1) He installed a mailbox door and did not make sure it was level 2) He attempted to do some patchwork on our ceiling and we had to pay the painter to fix it as it was a bigger eye sore than it was to begin with (yet he still charged us for it) 3) He installed a layer of tiling in our shower surround which was not flush with the other tile work (he did come back to remedy this but it is still not completely flush) 4) When hanging our TV & Mount, he scratched the surface of our dresser and attempted to cover it up though it is still visible 5) He completed projects that were not on our list and charged us for them (some landscape step repair). Overall, Ward is a very nice guy and charges at a fair rate. I would recommend him only for projects you are certain he is comfortable with covering. His attention to detail / quality is not at the same level as mine and my husbands and that is precisely why we would not go with him again. If based on character however, Ward is a really nice guy.
In response to Ward's on May 2nd: My review was not meant to be intentionally harsh. Rather, it was meant to use Angies List for the purpose it was intended for. My review was truthful. My husband and I were quite frustrated with the quality of work for all of the reasons stated in my review. I can certainly respond to all of my comments listed above and Ward's outreach to me after the review (with pictures as evidence) but I question the purpose. It is clear that Ward strives to satisfy his customers and I am sorry we were not able to give him a review that is consistent with many of his other reviews.

Concrete Wall Construction reviews from real Angi homeowners in Lake Elmo, MN

He looked at the whole foundation and stated everything looked OK but one area. It is a complicated area, where the concrete, blacktop meet the house and are slanted in the wrong direction. No easy solutions. He gave me a few different options I may want to look into: Blacktop &/or...

Family owned business with over 3 years of experience handling all your concrete, driveways, patios, sidewalks, slabs, caulk and crack repair.
"Garrett was very responsive with the bid and throughout the project. He raised our patio about an inch and a half, but had to stop before raising it higher, as he was concerned about the concrete cracking. I appreciated that he did not just continue the project. He did reduce the price quite significantly since he wasn't able to fully complete the job and the price was very fair."

I started in the Masonry business in 1976 and have been working ever since. I started my business in 1980 and incorporated in 1986. We are a small company with an experienced crew. They've all worked with me for the last 20 years. Experienced with working with condo associations and large building tuck pointing, brickwork, and stone work.
"In Aug./Sep. 2019, Rogers Masonry did a tear-down of our decrepit stuccoed chimney, followed by a beautiful brick re-build. The project posed some every unique challenges that Roger handled with a high level of professionalism and diligence. He is exceptionally knowledgeable in all chimney-related matters and provided almost-daily progress reports to document the work his crew was performing. His communication was exemplary, and he was responsive to our questions/concerns, all of which he promptly addressed. We were especially appreciative of the many pictures of the ongoing work that Roger provided throughout the project. We have already had the opportunity to make a referral for Roger and hope to work with him on another chimney project in 2020."

FAQs for concrete wall construction projects in Lake Elmo, MN
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.
