Three Guys Concrete LLC

Tony had been out of town when i first contacted him but made arrangements to meet up as soon as he got back. His guys had an couple of open days so we were able to negotiate him starting straight away. They turned up as arranged and job completed promptly and I am very pleased with the result!

Great experience working with Tony and the guys from Three Guys Concrete. Due to my indecision and poor planning I had work that needed to get done on short notice. Amazingly the job was done in less than 24hours from when i called Tony. After calling and leaving messages for a number of concrete contractors I was surprised that Tony both answered his phone and could stop by and take a look at the job right away. It was a small job and he had another customer that was delaying some work. The guys started at 9am the next morning and got right down to business. The new section of concrete looks great and the work area was left cleaner than it was when they got there. I highly recommend them.

Scheduled an appointment and Tony called to cancel even though I made time in my schedule to accomodate him. Good for Tony, bad for me. I asked about coming out early in the day so I wouldn't have to go into work late and he said "what do you mean? how early?" I'm thinking, the guy doesn't want my business and there's other people out there who want work. Oh, well at least I didn't actually do business with them.

Tony came by immediately after I had called and gave me an estimate. I told him my budget and they stayed under it. They resurfaced the pathway approx 8ft x 22ft , the steps and built a lip to stop water drainage. Some days later they returned to spray the color on . The crew were professional and did a good job. When pots were not replaced and some areas were not done to my satisfaction there was no problem at all. They just returned and fixed the problem. They noticed a crack before I did on the side concrete and returned to fix it and clean up. I am really pleased with the results and would definitely use them again.

Very positive experience from beginning contact and estimate to cleanup. Everyone was very professional. Tony did the estimate, helped us plan the job, got the permit and kept up informed. The guys on the job worked hard and were pleasant to deal with. The work was completed without harming any nearby plants which wasn't easy to do. Finally, after the work was finished they replaced the brick wall they'd removed and did a great job cleaning up. They completed the job on schedule and came bright and early every day and gave a full day of work. Wish everyone took pride in their work and did it as well as these guys did. We were very pleased and highly recommend them.

In every situation they always ended up meeting their word and delivering what they promised.

Overall very good. Same day estimate. The crew started and completed the work on time and within budget. Owner (Tony) supervised work as needed and was responsive to my concerns. Workers were highly skilled and courteous. Finished product is excellent. My detailed design was followed. Workers went above and beyond to relocate an outdoor light fixture. Highly recommended.

They were very responsible, did quality work with no hassles and at a good price.

Men started the next day after giving me the bid, in order to take advantage of the good October weather. They were prompt and pleasant to deal with. It appears that the job was done reasonably well and the majority of work was done within two days. There was a certain element of sloppiness, however. 1). The men poured their remaining concrete over the pile of remnants, making a bit of a mess. 2). They forgot to come back and remove the framing until I called them one week later. 3). When the cement was sprayed, it covered the laser eyes of my garage door opener, eventually resulting in the need to get a repairman out for servicing. 4). Large nails were left on the garage floor.

This was one of the best contracting projects ever. Based on Angie's List feedback, I requested an estimate from Tony, who was able to come out the next day (Friday). He sent a bid the following day, and was able to start on Monday. He understood exactly what I wanted and added little touches that made it even better, such as two curved sections of patterned concrete in the middle of the aggregate driveway. He has an electrician on staff who was able to relocate a pathway light that was within the replaced area. We had two bad weather days, but even so the job was finished in a week. It looks absolutely beautiful, is getting rave reviews from jealous neighbors... and I no longer will have to weed my driveway! Great experience, would highly recommend.

They were right on time. They estimated the job well as far as price and how long it would take to do the job. Overall, they did a great job. The price was reasonable. I would use them again.

Tony came to the house on Saturday prior to the start and remeasured the walkway and patio, he confirmed what i wanted and told me when his crew would start along with a 3 day accomplishment commitment. They were finishing another job and said they might be a little late but this translated to 1 man showing up late on monday and accomplishing little, when they do show up with an entire crew they work hard and fast and make sure your property is clean. The job ended up taking 6 work days but came out looking exactly the way I wanted it. As long as the job doesn't have a hard completion date these guys are real good to work with.

Well, I think I already did this above. But now I come to the negative part. Before the plastic came off, there had been rain over the weekend. I noticed that the plastic had blown about somewhat and water had collected here and there. With the plastic off, I saw streaks randomly running down the concrete and assumed that this was moisture that had accumulated under the tarp and that it would soon dry out and the concrete would be a uniform shade. Now it is close to 2 months later and the streaks are still there. But my biggest concern is that it never occurred to me that concrete came in different shades. The new driveway is a significantly lighter shade than the street it abuts, and the old part of the driveway that did not need replacing. But, like the streaks, I thought it needed a while to "temper" or something and then it would match. After 3 weeks, I called Mr. Puloka and asked him to come and look at it. He said that as the years passed, the streaks and the pale color would eventually not be so noticeable. I told him that people in their 70s and 80s were not interested in waiting "years" for their driveway to look okay. When I asked about the color of the concrete--and that I had since found out that it was a simple matter to alter the color before it is poured--he said they don't typically worry about matching the color for driveways. He did suggest that both problems (streaks & color) could be improved if they came and pressure washed the driveway and then applied a stain. However, this would cost us $900 (which he said was a good deal because he would be making no profit on the work). This is what I think: the streaks were caused by the company, not by me. Why should I pay for pressure washing them? As for the failure to match the color, I guess I could blame myself for not asking about this initially. But I know nothing about buying concrete. I just thought it was gray! I think a real concrete professional would have mentioned this himself. I told him that I didn't think it was fair that we should bear the cost of this remedy but he was firm. He said the work could be done in a few days but I told him that I wanted to think about it. He was aware that I had found him through Angie's List and that I had--too hastily--written a ravingly positive report right after the job was done. Back in the day when I thought it would look great after it dried out.

Tony came out to provide a bid promptly and was very curteous and professional. He quickly provided a bid by email. We scheduled work to begin about 10 days after accepting the bid. When work began we discovered that the original builders had poured the concrete directly over the wiring for the post lights, which meant that the wires were pulled out with the concrete. As soon as they realised this was the case they consulted with me. We also discovered that some of the irrigation had been laid at the concrete level too, so this had to be lowered. Tony offered to do the required irrigation and electrical work for $1,200 dollars (included in the $10,000 total price above). The work took four days to complete. They took great care and did a wonderful job.

They did a good job, and worked quickly and cleanly. Their prices were good, and they did the work without any delay. We were very happy with them.

Great job throughout - from estimate, first impression, scheduling, and work accomplishment. Match to existing driveway was excellent. Returned to remove more dirt per my request.

He was very professional, on time for the estimate, he gave a great estimate. We did not use him due to new city usage laws. We really liked his ideas and appreciated his time.

Came the day I called. Was willing to do exactly what we had in mind. He said we could pay when he finished. As soon as we decided to do the job and us him he scheduled us in 5 days, and that was the day it was done. I saw a contract because I asked for one, but we did not sign it. We did it on a hand shake. He was there to supervise 90% of the time.

I called them to get a quote. I ended up leaving a message but they still haven't called me back. That was about a month ago so I don't know why they still haven't called.

They arrived on time and completed the job ahead of schedule.

It was a bad experience. Something went wrong with sealing the cement. I think they did things they did not know how to do. There was no supervision from the owner. They came out three times to correct the problem without success. They were willing to come out to try to fix it and were good enough to give us back some of our money, but I would not use them again. The owner offered to totally redo the job or give us half the money back, and we chose to get our money. The owner did not come out when we were having problems. I think there needs to be more owner supervision.

5/22/2008 5:30 PM: Emailed them. 5/22/2008 6:30 PM: They returned email, set appointment for tomorrow at 1. 5/23/2008: Met, not impressed. Didn't draw me out; uncreative.

I called up Three Guys Concrete to do my driveway. They ripped up all the concrete in a day. They hauled in gravel and rebar that day. They poured the concrete the next day, about 9 yards. We wanted a drain added that did change the initial cost, but they were flexible about that change. I enjoyed that they did their job quickly, efficiently and very business like. They had the right equipment to get the job done.

Guy came out to look. Talked to my contractor, but never sent an estimate or call to say they weren't interested.

As it turned out, they had not done the sewer work to code and were called back to redo the job so that it could pass inspection. To facilitate matters, we agreed to have the concrete removed to the tune of $1200. After a good deal of bickering on their part, they finally got the sewer line done to code. They were going to re- cover it with concrete, but we asked them to install the drain they?d promised us instead. They did not respond to this suggestion. Moreover, when we looked for the re-installed water pipe we found it was just 8 - 12 inches below the fill, rather than the required 24. They have steadfastly refused to address the problem. The owner of Three Guys Construction is now saying he will not complete the work unless we sign a paper agreeing not to ?bad mouth? him and his company anymore. We have by now lost all faith in this company and have hired another company to finish the work. The three bids we got for the water pipe re-do range from 1,400 (excluding the trench, which costs approximately $1100) to 2, 311.00 We are, therefore, asking Three Guys to cover the costs of completing the job they originally agreed to do.
