Mercado Construction

Ricardo did a wonderful job of preparation and completion in getting rid of old slab and pouring new patio. Also filled in cutout in previously poured concrete area. Very professional, and Ricardo is very personable and willing to go above and beyond in making your dreams come true when it comes to concrete.

I had two projects to do and Ricardo gladly fit me in to pour a concrete front porch and extend my pool deck to erect a pool enclosure. Ricardo's work had to match the specs of the other contractors that were doing the construction. He did as great job as I knew he would since I have used his services multiple times in the past. I highly recommend Ricardo for any concrete work.

Everything was amazing! Ricardo was extremely punctual, reasonable, and hard working. His word was his bond. The end result exceeded my expectations. Thank you again!

Ricardo responded to my phone call, right away. I described the work to him over the phone and emailed a few pictures. He showed up the morning we scheduled (15min early) and completed the job in one day. The group was respectful and professional. I would definitely hire them again.

Mercado Construction is excellent! Ricardo was professional and informative. They were on time every day & exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Ricardo and his team. We love our new driveway! See before & after photos.

It was a great overall experience working with Ricardo. We had great communication and he was very responsive and had great ideas for our project. His guys did fantastic work and Ricardo was there to supervise during the project. I wish working with a contractor could always be this easy.

Excellent! Ricardo explained everything upfront, and pricing was reasonable. His guys were here on time, completed the project in a matter of hours, and cleaned up the debris. I will call them again for any concrete work I would need done.

Ricardo gave me an estimate on Friday 9/7 and performed the work on Monday 9/10. I have hired Ricardo a number of times and he always rates A+ on all criteria.

My neighbor was installing a pool and saw the workmanship of Mercardo Construction. I ask Ricardo to give me an estimate for my project. Ricardo responded within a day with an estimate and once I gave the go ahead with the project he was able to work me into his busy schedule. He arrived on time and had the work completed within a day and took time to help me understand how to best maintain my new paver patio. Wish all contractors were as honest and straightforward as Ricardo.

It was a great experience! Ricardo came out twice to discuss the design with us before giving us a timely, written estimate. He addressed all of our concerns with patience and answered all of our questions. His estimate was considerably lower than the other two we got. He gave us an honest start date and actually was able to begin the job sooner than expected. We liked the fact that he was hands-on, too, working alongside his workers and making sure that everything was done just right. We made a change or two to the design during the construction process and he was happy to implement the changes for us. The job was done in 1-1/2 days and he would not let us pay him until he was certain that we were 100% satisfied. We would definitely use him again and highly recommend him to others.

Excellent work. The owner Ricardo Mercado kept me informed as they had to work around rainy weather. I'm very pleased with the results.

Looks great. Mr. Mercado came out, gave us an estimate, a recommendation on which stones to use and a large pamphlet to select the stones. Mr. Mercado and crew were on time, friendly and did the work in a professional manner. As per recommendation, we had the deck sealed about 10 days later. He came out as scheduled and it was completed in a professional manner. This job is about a 12 x 12 deck bordered on two sides by our house and one side by 2 vine covered brick posts with a bird bath, ferns, bulbs, rose bush & other flowering vegetation and a narrow flagstone path leading up to it. This deck used to have a mature Pin Oak tree surrounded by a wood deck. Due to Hurricane Harvey, the tree and wood deck had to be removed and the tree stump ground out (Mercado did not do the tree/wood deck removal). But this still left a lot of large roots for them to dig up. Mercado had to get their small backhoe in to dig up the tree roots. This was not easy for them due to the narrow stone path and vegetation along it's sides. After getting with me to try to minimize damage to my plants they took my input and actually didn't damage any plants. The price quoted was a fair price and was the price we paid. The sealing was an optional extra that we knew about up front. We would use them again if needed in the future.

A+ rating!!

Ricardo has a great attitude and truly cares that the customer is happy. At the last moment, a contractor on one of his big jobs required his team to stay focused on their job. Instead of cancelling my job, he reached out to a friend in the concrete business to have his team do my job. And Ricardo was on site the whole day when my concrete was being laid by his friend's team. He's a class act and I would hire him again.

It went well from the design phase through the final construction. Very knowledgeable and flexible with design ideas. The workers were very professional.

Team was punctual, beat, and cleaned everything before they get. Mr. Mercado was very professional and stayed and worked Te job as well to ensure everything was taken care of. We haven't used the Pago yet but look forward to when we can.

His work is high quality, his workers are professional and very skilled. Any time I had a question or concern, he was available to answer.

Mercado had the manpower with the needed expertise and equipment to do a terrific job in less than a day. We are extremely pleased with our walkway made with pavers.

Ricardo Mercado is a very knowledgeable, honest, responsive, helpful, and caring contractor. You will not regret choosing him for your project. Himself and his crew are seasoned professionals that went above and beyond to ensure we had a flawless patio and thoroughly cleaned up the job site when they were finished. My wife and I were unsure of the color we should choose and Mr. Mercado provided a full color brochure, pictures of previous job sites, and was very helpful in recommending a paver color based on our home. We went with his recommendation and could not be happier. I happened to make an initial call to him on a Sunday morning due to having a crazy week at work expecting a call back on Monday and to my surprise, he called me back Sunday! He is a busy contractor but was upfront with me on time frame and told me he would work me in as soon as he could. Folks, it was worth the wait. His craftsmanship is the reason he is in demand. I could also tell Mr. Mercado had excellent leadership ability with his crews. He worked alongside them (just as hard as they did). When the project was finished, it looked exactly as he had described it to me and exactly as my wife and I had wanted and imagined it. He even took some concrete debris I had in my yard as a courtesy when he didn't have to. Ricardo, thank you sir, my family is looking forward to enjoying our new paver patio and will certainly call you when we need additonal paver work.

This man is a expert in design and installation- his suggestions with design and color exceeded our expectations. His crew works with meticulous speed and precision. we were very pleased with his work... his website says it all ....shear beauty

I contacted Ricardo with Mercado Construction after reading the great reviews on Angie's List. I am glad I did. He was very helpful in walking us through our options and we are so pleased with the finished product. The job went very well, the guys finished the job quickly and beautifully. Their cleanup was terrific - you'd never know they were here. The path looks amazing and with the entrance to the patio now having a finished look, our backyard has the needed boost it was lacking. Will definitely use them again!!

Work was done as promised, on time and on budget. We are very pleased

Mr. Mercado gave us a very competitive quote. He started and finished before he said he was going to be able to. He listened to what I wanted and helped me design my patio to what I wanted and added great touches that I didn't even think about. His employees are some of the hardest workers I have ever seen. Mr. Mercado transformed our backyard into a living space for a very reasonable price. He was prompt, professional, and went above and beyond what he said he would do. I would hire him again over anyone else I interviewed. He and his team are true artists!!!

Mr Mercado did an excellent job. His cost was reasonable and he did everything he said he would do. He gave us an estimate 3 weeks out as to when he would start and he started within two days of that estimate, his work is weather dependent. His crew did a great job. They showed up on time each day and did a full days work every day. Our project was completed in two weeks and a couple of those days he was waiting on a plumber for the fire pit. I would definitely use his company again.

Mr. Mercado is very professional. He came out and measured, gave his suggestion regarding materials and directed me to the stone yard to choose the pavers I wanted. His crew was fast and efficient and did a great job. They even found an error the sprinkler guys made. If Mr. Mercado's crew hadn't found it, the mistake would have ruined my new patio.
