I would hire Jake and his crew again and highly recommend them for any concrete work.
Jake and his crew (Steve and Tyson) showed up as scheduled and began the tear out. Everything went smoothly. Grading and compaction with gravel was next. Then they set the forms: borders, rungs, and interiors. They worked carefully to get the slope set so drainage was proper. Our driveway is approx 1500 sf and curves from the garage sloping down 13-17" to the street. They set expansion joints for the porch, and either end of the driveway. After setting the rebar they were ready to pour. The job involved three separate pours. We were experiencing very hot weather and Jake worked to get scheduling first thing in the morning so it could be worked before direct sun and heat set in. After all was done, the project was sealed. We are very happy with the result and look forward to years of use.
He is very busy so took a while to get him to start the job but he was very honest about that upfront so we expected the wait.
His professionalism & quality of work was well worth the wait.
We would gladly use him again!
"Thank you! Enjoy your new patio!"
"Thank you for your business!"
Jake went above and beyond to get the job done the way I wanted it and I could not be happier with the results. His crew was hard-working and respectful and we were all on a first name basis the entire job.
I would gladly recommend Alternative Edge.
"Thank you for your kind words. We all enjoyed working with you!"
Jake and his team are true professionals in EVERY way! From the first phone contact, to the face-to-face meeting with Jake, to the coordination of the job plan and finally all the work, this team treated us with the utmost respect as homeowners and delivered on every commitment that was made. They know concrete. The two different jobs that they did for us called for different finishes, both with challenges. The sidewalk sections they replaced fit within the existing sidewalk. They recommended a special finishing approach that they believed would produce a texture and color that would fit in with the existing sections. The results are amazing. Many of our neighbors have replaced sidewalk sections as the street trees in our development have uprooted sections of sidewalk. Most of the "new" concrete sections stick out as "white ghosts" next to the existing concrete. Our new sections blend in perfectly with the existing sections. Many of our neighbors have commented on how wonderful our new sections look. The pad that was created to hold our air conditioning units sits next to existing exposed aggregate sidewalks in our side yard. The new pad looks like it was poured when the sidewalks were poured over fifteen years ago. You cannot tell that the pad is new and the sidewalks are old. Once again, amazing.
Here is the bottom line. The guys are pros and THEY CARE!. The quality is outstanding and the price was very fair and market competitive. I do not know why you would choose anyone else.
Hire Jake and his team. You will be very pleased.
"Thank you for your kind words, this review reminds me why we do what we do. Thank you!"
"While I respect your opinion and your side of the story I feel I must tell mine: We poured the patio in well above acceptable temperature ranges but covered it with curing blankets to be safe. When we returned to expose the aggregate the yard had flooded and damaged the outside edge. I offered to replace it at my cost. The patio was re-poured by myself and one other employee mid-day and then we went to lunch. When we returned later that day to expose the aggregate we walked into the backyard to find their 6-8lb dog standing on the slab. Upon closer inspection there were dozens of foot prints and claw prints dug into the concrete(I have photos of the entire unexposed slab covered in paw prints). We exposed the aggregate and patched what we could. It was clear that the faucet had not been winterized and had sustained damage because of that. I offered to pay for repairs which were stated to be $50. This is the first I've heard of the additional repair costs. I'm disappointed that we could not leave you as a satisfied customer."
The project itself took a couple weeks to complete, which was primarily related to the constant rain and scheduling around that. The quality of the work performed was excellent. Jake was present at the job everyday and his crew were all professional. We have received multiple compliments on the concrete work since our project is complete. Would definitely hire them again for any future concrete work.
"Great project. Looks like you're making good progress. Thank you for your business!"
"Thank you!"
My purpose in writing this is to give a one year update: the veranda is still in great condition. We specifically requested that the veranda have a minimum of cut seams to enhance its appearance and Jake cut the seams on a 10' X 10' pattern. Because of the high quality prep work and good reinforcement, we have experienced no cracking of the slabs.
THe concrete has maintained its beautiful color and finish and we could not be more pleased!
"Thank you for the update. I'll be out soon to take "after" pictures!"
"Thank You! We appreciate your business!"
"Thank you!"
