Get matched with top concrete pros in Northbrook, IL

"Nick from 3D Concrete Design was extremely helpful! I was unsure whether a patio crack needed repair on full-on replacement. Nick recommended a simple repair, explained why in plain-language and provided a fair estimate in no time. From this interaction, I can tell that the folks at 3D Concrete Design are honest brokers and stand-people. I wouldn't hesitate to do business with them again in the future :-)"

"Promptly responded to my request for quote, was fairly priced and was able to get the job done within a few days. Team was careful not to impact the surrounding garden and cleaned up all the debris after. Really happy with 5 Star Concrete's work!"

"The work completed to rebuild my entire brick and concrete porch speaks for itself. It is OUTSTANDING!!! E & B Masonary are very professional, easy to work with and takes great pride in their work!!! They did not overcharge the work for this project. They cleaned up after the work was finished, made every effort to answer all my questions, and obtained good brick samples for my approval before the start of the project!!! I have other work needed to be completed on my property and will not hesitate to use this company again!!!!! Everyone loves our new porch!!!!!"

"The company was on time with plenty of crew and all necessary tools. Excellent efficiency both in removing damaged concrete, and finishing work to my satisfaction. Would use them again for any similar work. And the price was right also."

"Daniel was a pleasure to work with, from initial estimate to job completion. An old sinking blacktop driveway was replaced with a concrete one. The job was completed in a reasonable time frame (the longest wait was for my village to approve the permit!). It looks beautiful, greatly improving the curb appeal. The crew was very respectful of the property and did a very nice clean up. Very happy with the results."

"The work went extremely well. The concrete is now properly raised and sloped for drainage. The gap between the slab and my front stairs is also sealed. It looks great. I highly recommend Perma-Seal."

"Tino from JK Company worked closely with me thru every phase of the project which was to replace my broken concrete driveway with paving stones. He was always very professional and provided frequent updates on status and scheduling. The quality of the work was absolutely top notch and the end result is a definite enhancement to my home's curb appeal and value. I would highly recommend Tino and his crew to anyone. And I have received many compliments on how beautiful my new driveway is from friends and neighbors!"

"I noticed that our front door was sticking and hard to open, then it would not open at all.  Then we noticed cracks on the wall coming from the top frame of the door, cracks on the wall in the hall and cracks on our foundation outside.  There were also cracks forming on our front stoop and on the brick in front of the house. 
 I had two other companies give me an estimate and wanted a third because of the amount of money they were saying it would cost.   I was told that my foundation was sinking and that I would need piers installed in various locations around the house to raise and stabilize it.  All three companies were in agreement on what needed to be done with slight variations of where the piers should be placed.  One of the companies was rejected because his price was much higher than the other two.  The other company's cost was just above USW, however he did not do concrete work.  So, anywhere concrete was removed to place a pier, would then have to have concrete reinstalled by a separate company for an additional cost.  
USW is able to reinstall the concrete were necessary.  Their cost, which was the lowest of the three, also included a new garage floor, which was in bad shape and cracking.
 Several people eventually came out to inspect and prepare the engineering drawings.   I was told that they should have  the permit back from the village and would probably be able to start the middle of April.  Around the middle of April I contacted USW and was told that the permit had not yet been received.  On April 30 I called again and was told the same thing.  I then called the village office and was told that the permit could not be issued yet because USW did not have current registration in the village to perform any work.  I contacted USW and informed them of this.  I got a call back the next day from USW informing me that there was miscommunication with the village and that everything got straightened out.  They should have the permit back by next Tuesday (May 6) and then I would be contacted by the scheduler.  I called the village on May 7 to find out if the permit had been issued and they told me that it had.  I then called USW  to schedule my work after informing them that they did have the permits in their office. The crew started on Tuesday,   May 27 at 8 am and worked until 4.  Throughout the period that the crew was working on my house they were very professional.  They were hard workers - only took an hour for lunch every day and it did not look like they really took any breaks.  They seemed to know what they were doing and went about their job.  They worked all day Tuesday, Wednesday and most of Thursday.  As they left each day they would let me know they were done for the day.  On Friday no one showed up at the usual 8 am time.  A little later I called and they informed me they would be there at 10:30 that day.  I think they should have called and informed me of the later time start as I could have ran some errands before they got there that day.   They returned on the following Tuesday and finished the job.
Only time will tell if they did a good job or not.  They dug holes for the piers they installed and tried to put the dirt back as best they could afterward.  They had to dig up my flower garden in the front of the house and even tried to put back my perennials as best they could afterward.  I had some edging that got buried by the dirt from the hole and they dug through to find the edging and put it back in place.  At one point my husband was working on installing a new sump pump in the garage and one of the workers came over and helped him a little.    
The only issue was there was a little lack of communication with the permits and late start one day, but otherwise I was happy with the work they did."

"Very well, our home is more leak proof / water tight than when we bought it some 30 years ago... and is anticipated to remain so for another 30+ years. All the mentioned work occurred during 3 visits spread across some 18 months; but none of the visits required more than a single day to complete. Work was conveniently scheduled and the worker(s) always arrived on time; if not 15 minutes early. A year after our last work was done (the poly-jacking), The Real Seal, at my request but at no charge, even sent out a technician to replace/redo some concrete plugs in those poly-jack holes that had popped out probably due to outdoor temperature swings."

"Hardrock Inc. Francisco & His Father did an absolute great job. They went the extra mile to check border pavers we had seen in the area as well as even visit the sites which we had seen in adjacent towns to try and match the look we were trying to achieve. They worked through a rain storm during the demolition phase of the project, they didn't damage the work site in any significant manner. My driveway concrete had settle at least 6-8 inches near my garage area and in front of my stoop, Francisco said we can build up that area. In fact the original builder didn't place adequate basing so he had underestimated by 1/2 the material cost, but told me; my error and would only charge 1/2 the extra basing material needed to complete the job. They cleaned up and any small detail, like small part of sod grass was damaged, they replaced with new as well as finished work on the mailbox on a Sunday so we could be good to go before the mail showed up on Monday, because they promised. Best Contractor experience I've had, and I have used and talked to many a contractor in my day. Hardrock Inc. best concrete and asphalt paving company I have dealt with plus they gave the best price out of a dozen contractors, as well as the whole crew were polite and courteous and professional, easy to work with and very humble, why can't all contractor experiences be like this, they even refused when I tried to give them a tip because I was so pleased with the finished project, they vehemently protested, but I insisted that they treat the whole crew they said okay, only because it's for their crew!!!! Hardrock Inc., they are the model of a great contractor and business in their industry, better hire them asap if you need paving needs, these guys are going to be really busy!!!!!"
