We've been installing concrete, brick, and stone in the Twin Cities for over 80 years. Our employees have been with us an average of 20 years.
"We chose Hage to replace our concrete steps because we thought they would be a trustworthy company. Mike Hage told us he wasn‘t sure they would get to our project before winter but we could put a 10% deposit down ($595) to hold the price for next year. In retrospect, that should have been a red flag because every other contractor we talked to wouldn’t take any money until they showed up to do the job. We ended up changing our plans before Hage even scheduled our project— still telling us they might not get to it until next year. We asked for our deposit back and he said no, essentially because in a document they sent us (but not the contract we signed) it stated that deposits are nonrefundable. We asked if he would please consider a partial refund, as I can understand the time it took to give us the estimate (even though those are free). He replied saying that our $595 deposit doesn’t even begin to cover the work their office does “printing photos, making job packets, and purchasing the permit.” I asked if any of that work had even been done considering our job wasn’t even going to be done until next year. He replied saying, “I am your salesman not the owner or your scapegoat. Please direct any further inquiries to the office directly as I have no knowledge of what has or has not been done-which makes no difference anyway.” Shocked by this rude and inconsiderate response. No accountability from Mike Hage of Hage Concrete. Hope this review prevents someone else from getting swindled."

The best way to hire the right foundation installer is to verify licensing, insurance, and experience on projects like yours. Collect a few detailed estimates, compare timelines, and call past clients to see how each pro performed. That quick homework weeds out hidden fees and helps you land a contractor who can pour your foundation correctly—and protect your home’s structure for decades.
A well-built concrete foundation typically lasts 80 to 100 years or more. Its life span depends on proper installation, local soil, weather conditions, and routine upkeep. Keep an eye out for early warning signs—cracks, bowed walls, or sloping floors—and call a foundation pro right away if you spot them. Prompt repairs help the slab stay strong for the rest of your home’s life.
A monolithic slab is usually the most budget-friendly choice. Because the footing and slab go down in one pour, you save on both labor and materials while still getting a solid, one-piece base. The streamlined process keeps costs low and disruption minimal, giving you an affordable yet reliable foundation.
