Please contact us through Angi or directly at Tomsirek@gmail.com Thank you for your consideration!
"We had a fantastic experience with these guys and I would highly recommend Tom and his crew. He was super responsive the whole time and proactively kept me updated on things, both by calling or texting before the work started as well as ringing the bell to keep me updated while the work was in progress. This is a smaller operation with a lot of experience so I felt confident that the job was being done properly without over paying. On the day the work started, Tom asked me to come outside to go through all the details before work started. We found one area where my assumptions were different than what his were in terms of how the downspouts were going to look and he not only came up with a solution right away but also drove around to three different hardware stores to find the right part. The work also ended up taking a little longer than he expected but he still honored his original quote. The crew was all very nice and polite and did a great job putting everything back together with fresh sod and cleaning up. Overall, we are very satisfied and would not hesitate to recommend them to a friend or use them again."

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 patio extension looks nice and was completed quickly for a good price. My only complaint is that with the wet weather the day before they left behind some significant ruts in the lawn. I'll have to rototill and re-seed those areas later this summer."

Mudjacking and foam jacking differ significantly in both materials and methods. Mudjacking uses a cement-based slurry to fill voids beneath a slab, while foam jacking uses expanding polyurethane foam delivered under high pressure to achieve superior structural support. This material distinction enhances load-bearing strength and overall stability in your repair.
Mudjacking takes between one and three days to dry completely. During this time, it's important to avoid putting weight on the slab until it's fully cured. The drying time depends on the project size and environmental conditions. In contrast, polyurethane foam used in foam jacking can cure in as little as one hour.
No, mudjacking is not a permanent fix for sinking concrete. While it effectively lifts the slab and can last five to 10 years, it doesn't address underlying soil issues that may cause future sinking. For a more permanent solution, you might consider foam jacking or complete slab replacement, which can address deeper structural problems.
