"Internal drain tile systems with advanced sump pumps were installed in two basements. They also added the wall coverings to channel any wall leaks to the system. It works perfectly! The employees of Basement Systems are amazing - everyone is professional and helpful. The work was completed quickly. They cleaned up the job site. My basements were a lost cause - now they are restored and I can use them again. Thanks!"
"Jodie and crew started exactly when the contract stated. The crew began with the roof. All went well until the weather took a turn and began raining almost daily. Even fighting the weather, severe at times, the crew would stick it out and accomplish the day's goals, working well into the evening if needed. They next began with the deck roof and extension, which went very smooth once the weather cooperated and allowed the guys to do their thing. Finally the concrete pads were poured( fighting the rain again) and the job was complete. As the guys packed up the job site, Jodie said to let him know if their were any issues or concerns with his work in the future. After some time had passed, I just wasn't completely happy with the smaller of the two concrete pads. I called Jodie and explained that I wasn't totally happy. He at that time, with no hesitation, apologized and said he would take care of, at no cost to me, until I was satisfied. He had gotten very busy, but promised to get back to me ASAP. I let him know that I was good with that, but wanted it done before the snow started. He agreed and promised it would be done well before that. A couple weeks had passed and Jodie called and sent a crew up to break up the pad, then a day or so later, they were back to pour the new concrete. I hope I didn't miss anything and have given a proper recollection of the events. It was a pleasure to have Jodie and his crew here on this project and would hire them again with no hesitation. Kudos to the Machen Home Improvements Crew!!!!!!!! "

In most cases, yes, masons can build concrete forms and pour concrete for a variety of home improvement projects, including foundation pouring. Some masons may prefer to focus on more aesthetic and artistic masonry work, like building retaining walls, crafting custom fireplaces, tiling, or installing stucco siding, but most also have experience pouring concrete. You can always ask your masonry contractor if they also handle poured concrete projects.
Labor and pouring adds between $8 and $18 per square foot to your total for concrete delivery. Especially for larger projects, it’s usually a good idea to hire a professional concrete delivery company when it comes to installing concrete surfaces even though it will undoubtedly cost more to hire a pro to do the work for you.
Concrete houses cost 10% to 20% more to build than stick-built homes, and maintenance on home systems is more invasive and expensive due to pipes and wires being buried in concrete. Concrete homes can also look more industrial and less comfortable if you don’t cover the concrete with finishing materials. It’s also more challenging to make changes to concrete, so reframing doors and windows or building home additions will cost more. Concrete needs time to cure, too, so the timeline to build a house out of concrete is a bit longer.
