"I just want to add that Kyle was instrumental in the success of my two projects. He really helped me to visualize what I wanted in my driveway and back patio. He also filled in the details in a way that made everything come out so well. Also, there was an issue of some concrete that had spattered onto my patio walls and had dried. Kyle came right out to solve the problem. This was after I had paid, so that speaks to the integrity of Kyle and Concretewrks. They value custome"

"If a service is excellent . . . I like to take the time to write a review. Life is busy for us all and so many little things grab at our time and attention. And IF a provided service and / or product takes things a Definitive Notch above Excellent . . . Well then it is my great pleasure to brag on these guys. Talk about an exceeding of expectations. These guys Rock. Plain and Simple. Over the years I have dealt with varied Concrete Contractors in contracting several houses. Some better than others as with all things. Got a price from a previously used decent provider. He's busy so the price just stupid ridiculous. Another guy previously used - "Let me call you back . . . " Not to be heard from again. Busy. I get it. "Can't do it all and it looks like things will stay busy" - Maybe A random Google search brought me across Above All Concrete. After an online inquiry, it was shortly thereafter that Denis came out and assessed the challenging large slab and footer shelf that I needed. There was a clear plan that was provided, a description of the entire process, start to finish. And a Very Fair Price. In light of the finished product, An Excellent Value, that I am certain of. My project had setback after setback dealing with Engineering hiccups among others. Several times after All Above having scheduled the Concrete Trucks, Labor, Pump, etc I would have to once again ask to push things back. 4 times this happened and I felt terrible about it. And there was ZERO hint of the Office Scheduler feeling put out. That is RARE. For me it is. Through the process of the initial quote, the price, the followup, the numerous questions that arose from the engineer, contractor, myself, . . .

"Several years ago The Garage Authority did a polyurea floor in my garage and then returned and did my front porch. I have been so happy with the beauty, durability, and ease of cleaning that I asked about the possibility of doing my bathroom floor during a recent bath remodel. Mike, the installer, looked at my floor and said most definitely! The process took three days and at the conclusion, I couldn't be happier. My remodeling contractor, who had never seen this floor application done anywhere but a garage, was amazed. There is no grout, water resistant, a wide selection of colors, and very easy to maintain. Thank you to Mike, business owner Nancy, and all the crew at The Garage Authority. Very happy customer!"

"The overall work went well. However, there was a defect in the concrete near our front door, in plain site, and very visible, where the concrete was cracked and broken just days after the project was completed and we had paid in full. We called multiple times and never received a return call. We then sent an email which he returned and set up a time for repair. This repeated itself for 3 separate events, with the patch failing every time. The last time we heard from him was 4 months ago when he said " I will be glad to come out and address the issue. I will contact you when I have a date." That was in July! Based on their poor customer service, after being paid $36,000, I would not recommend Cane Creek Concrete to any of my neighbors or anyone else."

In 2003, my father introduced me to the concrete world. In that time, I learned how to layout, dig, bend and install steel reinforcements for footings. Also, I was taught to design, form, and finish flat work. Lately, I have worked a lot with pour-in-place concrete walls. In 2004, one of my four brothers, Rolando, joined us, and then my other brother, Hugo, in 2005. We all worked together with my father as our leader for a time, before eventually leading our own paths. During the crash of 2008, business was terrible. We were financially hurt, as many others were, and had to give up our home and move out of the state. This recession led us to the state of North Carolina, where a year later I began to work for a large concrete contractor. After working for that company for a couple of years, I decided I had the know-how and ability to launch Blue Way Concrete.

"There crew was very hospitable and we were able to cut our price down since we wanted to keep quite a bit of the concrete, use them as planters for defining spaces. They even helped us place many of them in our garden areas. My husband provided them with pizza and drinks as they are very diligent workers and we were able to work with them and enjoy in the fun endeavor. Vincent, Elizabeth and Philipe and there crew conscientious with their timing and bent over backwards to help meet our needs. We were very grateful for all the help they gave and our driveway and walkway look fantastic with our curves. Our neighbors are very happy with our new driveway as well."

Decorative Concrete questions, answered by experts

When you are laying hardwood flooring—or any other material that does not flex well with humidity—you will want to check the moisture level of your subfloor before proceeding. Flooring like luxury vinyl tile and bamboo performs better than more rigid materials in environments where moisture might be present. However, thorough testing is always an excellent preventative measure to control and monitor water in your home.

Yes, it's typically best to set aluminum fence posts in concrete. You can technically use a mix of gravel and soil instead, but concrete is more stable and secure. Concrete also lasts longer and does a much better job of withstanding the outdoor elements than a gravel or soil mix.

Yes. A septic tank riser is meant to replace a septic tank cover—concrete, metal, fiberglass, or otherwise—while still allowing easy access to the opening of the tank. Just as you would need to be mindful of the septic tank lid when it comes to mowing the lawn or other yard usage, you’ll have to be cautious not to damage or otherwise disrupt the septic tank riser.

Concrete walkways cost around $1,800 for 200 square feet. At an average width of 3 feet, that price will likely cover a walkway that’s around 65 feet long. This price is also for walkways that are 4 inches thick. If you need thicker concrete to support vehicle traffic, you will pay more. This price includes the cost of the concrete itself, as well as the cost for delivery and installation.

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.
