Lara's Concrete Inc

With Mr. Lara called away out of town, there was some confusion about scheduling, but overall everyone was very accommodating and responsible. <br />

This a small company, but they do good work at a good price.  The job was completed in just a day, looked very professional and the area was left clean.  I don't know about their paving services, but I'm guessing they probably do a good job with that as well.

<br /> needed concrete steps.  dealing with the office  (his daughter) was the worst part.  she was the most unprofessional vendor i have ever experienced from repeatedly mailing the contract to the wrong address, attempting to raise the price, and simply being downright rude. <br /> the guys who poured the concrete steps seemed fine although several times they did not show as expected. the inspector made the company redo the job.  not sure exactly what that entailed because although i asked to be present for the inspection, i was not given the opportunity.  i had some issues with the finished job, which luis refused to deal with for quite a while.  the concrete cracked away from the front door threshold almost immediately and he said that was "normal."  the top step also cracked which he said was normal.  his resolution was to give me some money back, not fix the job.  the steps were also supposed to be painted but they never did.  because of the weight of the steps, it has now caused the front part of the house to sink.  they did not lay a concrete slab first, they just poured onto dirt.

The work was completed with satifaction and on time.  The worked area was cleaned and folks working on the job were friendly and responsible.

We have been going through different changeovers and what have you because we are trying to have a fence done.  The neighbor who is joining with us has not been cooperative, but Lara’s have been great in responding and changing the orders and coming back out to see what we could do differently to modify things.  We really appreciate that.  We haven’t spent anything other than what we paid for the special that they had, and they are going to give us the credit for that.  We highly recommend them.  If they do a good job, we would use them again in the future.

I purchased this work as one of an Angie's List Big Deal ($149 for $300 of work).  Luis Lara came to our house to give us an estimate for the job which was $850 (less the $300 credit to make it $550 due on completion).  It seems like a fair price given that it took four men four hours each plus the equipment and expertise.  Sixteen man hours calculates out to $53 per hour.  Both Luis at the estimate visit and the crew on the work day were professional and thorough.  We are quite happy with Lara Concrete. <br /> <br /> The work was originally scheduled for March 6 but the crew was held up on another job so delayed ours for two days - not a problem for us.  The crew of four men arrived promptly at 8:00 and finished the work by noon.  They did an exceptional job with concrete saws and jack hammers.  They removed all the debris and left the site ready for the next phase.  One thing they did not do was to wipe clean the splatter from the side of the house, windows and door next to where the cuts were made.

They did everything to my specifications. They were very detail oriented. They cut the stones in odd shapes and everything fit perfectly. They did more than I thought, like building a perugula. Everything was very well done. I would recommend them to anyone.

They were very nice and very good.  They went above and beyond of what I expected.  I don’t remember how much I spent.  The people were reliable and the price was good.  They were responsible in terms of the work that they did.  I thought they were good to work with.  I would definitely use them again.  Everything’s holding up good.  I will use their services again in the future.

They were very careful when having to go through to get to the atrium. They covered the floors. They were professional and did a good job. The man that came out and gave me the bid, had an artistic sense. He pointed out and gave advice as to what we could do. The one problem we had, they came back and fixed promptly.
