We specialize in everything concrete. Need that drive way fixed or extended? Sidewalk crumbling? Does the Mrs. want a beautiful stamped patio to entertain guest in the backyard? We have over 30 years experience in the industry and we are fully insured. Call us to schedule your free estimate.

"I contacted Angi's at the end of July or beginning of August for a referral for a contractor who could repair the cracks in our driveway. We received 2 calls, 1 from Hastings and Sons and 1 from another contractor. Jason Hastings came to do an estimate on 08/05/2025. He was an hour early with no call. He was very nice and personable. We discussed fixing the cracks, but then he told me we really needed a new driveway and that our porch (it's not really a porch as there is no overhang) needed replacing as well. I told him we tried to do that a few years before, but the deal fell through. We discussed what I wanted to do, which was to change the porch, walkway, and flower bed into one patio with a step up from the driveway and no step into the house. He agreed with that idea and said he would price the driveway by itself as well as the driveway and patio together. We discussed the need for permits, 1 for the bottom of the driveway and 1 for the patio. We also discussed if they would be able to level the driveway better than it was due to the fact that cars that sit low got scraped when the came up the driveway. He said they couldn't promise to fix that issue, but they would do everything they could to fix that. He gave me an estimate of $9970. I told him I would speak to my husband and let him know. He wanted an answer immediately. I told him I had another estimate scheduled for that day and would need to speak with my husband. He told me the price was only good until the end of the day. The 2nd estimate came in at $14,000.00 for both the patio and the driveway. My husband and I talked about both estimates and decided to go with Hastings and Sons. I called Jason and told him our decision. He sent over the contract via email and I signed it. He said they could probably start that week. I told him we needed to get the money together, so needed to wait a week to start. He agreed. The next week he called on Tuesday and said some workers would be there that evening to tear out the driveway. He said they would tear out the whole driveway that evening and due the concrete work on Wednesday. I told him we only had half the money as we were waiting on the check from selling some stocks for the 2nd half. He said that wasn't a problem. He trusted me to pay when we had the money. The workers showed up that evening as Jason said they would. My husband happened to be outside when they came. One of the men spoke to my husband briefly without introducing himself or saying he was the owner. He asked my husband what we were doing with the driveway. My husband told him what we wanted with the driveway. Shawn Hastings did not ask my husband about the patio and my husband did not say anything to him about the patio. After about 10 minutes of using equipment to break up the driveway, they left without telling us they were leaving and did not come back. They returned the next morning. Shawn was driving the machine used to break up the driveway, although at that time neither I nor my husband knew who he was. I left for work, as I had told Jason I would be doing, and waved at the workers as I left. No one asked to speak to me. When I got home, shortly after 4:00 p.m., I noted the driveway was almost finished, but they had redone the porch and walkway exactly as it had been before, not what Jason and I had discussed. I spoke to the workers who were working on the porch, and they said "talk to the boss." I asked who the boss was and they pointed to a man sitting in a truck. They called him to come up and I walked toward him to tell him the problem. At that time, I still did not know who he was. I explained the problem, and he immediately blamed me and my husband. I told him that Jason and I had discussed what we were doing with the patio and Jason knew exactly what we wanted. He continued to blame us. He then said that I hafmd just left that morning without speaking to him, again, I had no idea who he was, and that we hadn't even paid him. He then said they would make it right and that we all shared the blame. I denied again that we shared any of the blame. I went into the house and got the check. I then walked down to his truck to give him the check for $5000.00. He said that I didn't need to pay right then. I said I wanted him to take the check. He took the check and then repeated several times "We're all right." I was concerned he was having a heat stroke or something because his behavior and demeanor were off. I went back in the house and called Jason. Jason said he would call Shawn and talk to him. Jason agreed that the patio was supposed to replace the porch, walkway, and flowered and didn't know why they had done it incorrectly. A short time later, Shawn came up to the door and said they would fix the problem. He again blamed my husband and myself. At this point, I had had enough and said, "f*ck off, dude." He became incensed and tok a step towards me. One of his workers grabbed him and said, "no, boss, no." I shut the door. A little bit later, he came back up to the door with the check I had given him. He,said he wasn't going to accept the check because I had cursed t him. He said he would only take cash. I apologized for cursing at him and told him there was nothing wrong with the check and I was not going to go to the bank to get cash. He then said he would uncharted me for the concrete needed for re-doing the patio. I said that wasn't in the contract and I was going to call his brother. He said, "go ahead. I'm the owner, not Jason." I called Jason again. He seemed upset by what Shawn was doing and saying. He said he would call Shawn and call me back. He called me back and said, Shawn was going to go "cool off and get a drink" and he would be back. He said they would take our check and there would be no upcharge. A few hours later, Shawn showed up, somewhat contrite, and spoke to both Joe and I. I explained what we wanted to do with the patio. He said he couldn't do it all the way to the door, that there would have to be a step into the house. Although that's not what we wanted, we agreed. He made a joke about women named Jennifer, as that's my name and his ex-wife's name. He tried to hug me. He and I both apologized. He left saying everything, the rest of the driveway as well as the patio would be finished the next day. The next day, the workers showed up and began work. I don't know if Shawn was there that day or not. My husband was off work that day while I was at work. When I got home, they were finishing up. Everything looked okay to me other than the patio seemed a bit uneven. Shawn stopped by that evening and asked what we thought. I said it looked fine to my untrained eye other than the patio looked uneven. He said it looked fine to him. I said "okay." He then said they workers would be back that evening to clean up and they would get "every rock and piece of trash out of our yard." I asked if they could get rid of the iron railing that had been around our porch as Joe and I had no way to dispose of it. He said they would. I gave him the 2nd check for the remainder of the cost, $4970. The workers did not come back that night. They came back early the next morning while I was getting ready for work. They only took a trash bag that they had left behind the night before. They did not clean up the yard or take the railing. I texted Jason and he sad he didn't think they'd be able to do anything because they were all in Cincinnati. Two of the workers did show up that evening and took the railing. The next day, Friday, I came home to find a notice fom the City of Kettering that I needed to call Chad ASAP about ur recent "concrete work." I called immediately but he wasn't in the office. I called again first thing on Monday and U was told by Chad that Hastings and Sons did not get the needed permit for the driveway permit, and that they had done the apron incorrectly. Chad then told me that all they had to fo was pay $22.00 fir a permit, and Chad would have come to the house and explained how the apron should be done, and then would come out when finished, inspect it, and then sign off. That's all Hastings and Sons were supposed to do. He then told me if Ha"

Concrete Repair questions, answered by experts

If improperly installed, an egress window can compromise your foundation’s structural integrity, so it’s important to work with a pro to ensure your foundation remains in good shape. Any money you may save on a DIY egress window installation may cost you in the long run if your foundation is damaged in the process.

Yes, you can replace a cinder block foundation. If a block foundation is too severely damaged to repair cracks and other issues, replacing the entire foundation is a viable option. The job will require a professional and can take between one to seven days on average to complete, depending on how complex the problem is.

Concrete pools are very durable but can crack if not properly maintained. The most significant risk is winter weather and low temperatures when water can seep into crevices and freeze. To avoid damage, use the proper winterization chemicals, and don’t completely drain your pool. Concrete pool repairs cost around $75 per linear foot for small cracks.

If your foundation repair claim gets denied, the first step is to carefully read over your policy and denial letter so you understand the reason for the denial. Then, gather evidence and documents that can support your case and appeal the denial with your insurance company. If your insurer does not eventually honor your claim, you may want to file a complaint with the insurance department in your state. In some cases, it may make sense to work with an attorney and file a lawsuit.

There are many actions that specialists can take to repair a bad foundation. However, just like a car, a specialist will determine whether the cost of repairs is worth it in the long run. In many cases, repairs to the surrounding property—such as regrading your lawn or addressing lawn drainage issues—will also be necessary.
