"Patio started out good. Work got sloppy. After many attempts to get it done correctly, I had to get someone to come back and redo the grout. We also had to get some pavers leveled out. Much much money spent on yard as well and work done looks like something I could have done myself. Much money wasted."

Call (704)451-0990 today for a consultation. Ace Concrete is known for over the top performance, experience, leadership, design, and quality. With only 2 employees, you can rest assured that you will get the personal touch. No subs.
"In 2020....I had ACE Concrete to come to my residence and widen my driveway. The owner, David Stallings arrived and was very abrasive, however, that didn't deter me from using him because everyone doesn't have to have a sunny disposition, however, Great Customer service doesn't hurt. He was very dismissive in his communication. Ironically, he observed a political flag next to my property and it seems that he automatically assumed that I was complicit with my neighbor's political views (and I was), his attitude got even worse. His work was average, therefore, I paid him and after payment, I noticed him washing his tools and emptying the remnants of the concrete that he had used for my job onto my grass. I requested that he not do so, he stopped advising that it would not hurt my grass. I went back inside and then through my window, I observed him leaving my residence. I went outside to see that he had finished dumping the excess of concrete into my grass. I took his word, and did not attempt to irrigate the spot that he had dumped that waste. The next morning I awoke to see that the mixture had hardened and I had to dig the concrete waste up from where Stallings had dumped, totally reseeding the grass, it took months for that spot which was bald to grow back. My opinion is that Stallings saw the melanin on my skin and observed the political sign of my neighbor let his own prejudice skew his judgment, and instead of being a professional, he committed an egregious act as destroying a part of yard by dumping concrete waste onto my grass, which was totally uncalled for because I did nothing or said anything to him to even provoke him to do what he did. Stallings is unprofessional and should not be in business and if I had the time and extra money for an attorney, I would have sued him civilly for his egregious act. Stallings if you are in business...you are in business for EVERYONE and not just a select few...the color that should matter for any entrepreneur. If you all ask, WHY it took me so long to report him, well, I actually lost information and JUST found his information to report him!"

We specialize in everything related to the Hardscape and Outdoor living areas, we can make your backyard of your dreams come true!
"J&C Hardscapes LLC did a fantastic job. Angi Gave me three references. A large company failed to respond. J&C Spent their time ministering what needed to be done. I had another company to come out. They gave me a price on the spot, I did not feel comfortable with their estimation. JNC took their time measuring and got back with me in two days. Their price was higher than the other company. I felt more comfortable with J&C Hardscapes. Carlos and his company did an excellent job installing the retaining wall. Once the wall was completed, it was perfectly constructed. One of their employees took pictures of his work because he was proud of it, To me that says it all. I would highly recommend J&C Hardscapes to anyone interested."

When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The average cost of playground equipment installation is around $500, and most homeowners pay between $330 and $700, excluding the cost of the playground equipment itself. Your total project cost will depend on site preparation requirements, playset size, design complexity, number of accessories, and the swing set materials. Don’t forget to account for the cost of playground surfacing, which can cost between $15 to $160 per cubic yard or $225 per cubic yard for poured rubber.
The cost of a paver patio is $3,800 for a 280-square-foot patio on average. Depending on the patio size, paver material, and design complexity, this cost can range from $2,400 to $7,000 or more.
The size of your patio is a significant factor in the project’s overall cost. If you're building a smaller patio of only 60 square feet, your costs will be closer to $480 to $1,500. If you want a more luxurious 900-square-foot patio, you'll spend closer to $7,200 to $22,500.
The average cost of mudjacking is around $5 per square foot of concrete, with most concrete leveling jobs totaling between $3 and $8 per square foot. The typical cost to fix a sinking portion of concrete slab with mudjacking is around $1,100. The price you’ll pay depends on the size of the concrete slab you need to be leveled, the accessibility of the slab, and the type of material your contractor uses beneath the concrete to lift it back into place.
The cost to install a concrete driveway is $4 to $15 per square foot on average. Your price heavily depends on your desired concrete finish and driveway size.
For a driveway that is 200 square feet, you can expect to pay an average cost of $1,900. For a driveway at double that size (400 square feet), the average price is closer to $3,800. Plain concrete is significantly more cost-effective, averaging $7 per square foot, whereas stained concrete averages around $19 per square foot.
