Get matched with top stamped concrete installers in Kalama, WA

"Almighty Building did a great job! They removed half of our back deck and poured in a concrete patio. The work was actually completed much faster than I thought it would which was great, and also looked fantastic. I will be hiring for future projects and would definitely recommend."

"Concrete pour tomorrow, all prep work done. Great folks to work with. Cleaned up perfectly. All great so far."

"The estimator that came out was very friendly and knowledgeable. He took the time to understand my needs, and it didn't feel rushed. I enjoyed the conversation. One thing I wish they would offer, is a turn-key solution. There were aspects they weren't willing to take on - adding drainage under the deck, creating a hard barrier around the deck, etc. This means, I would have had to complete some of the work myself, or hire it out myself. I would expect for this price they presented, they would subcontract whatever other services I would need to complete their deck installation. The estimation and bidding process was not very transparent. They provide a final cost estimate, and aren't able to illustrate the various costs (labor, materials, profit) in detail. I also wasn't given a copy of the estimate, only shown the final number on the estimator's computer screen at my house. After having the evening to think things over, the price seemed pretty high to me. I created my own cost model using the actual retail costs for materials from the same company they buy their materials from, a generous fully-loaded rate for labor, and a generous 50% profit margin (on labor only). My model was showing a price about 35% lower than what they presented to me. I went back and forth with a couple of folks at USI, and they told me it was a 33%/33%/34% breakdown. This doesn't make sense to me, since the labor should roughly cost the same (assuming the same size, type, and features) no matter if I choose expensive or inexpensive materials. This model should break in most situations. The only cost justification they made was a 5 year warranty on construction - which is great, but given the cost, it feels like I'm buying an insurance policy on it anyway. The other thing was their quality, which is undeniably a contractor's reputation. Without seeing the cost breakdown, how is someone supposed to know how to make compromises, or to even make sure everything I was asking for is included? I'm not cheap, and I value craftsmanship and good service - I know that costs money. But if you can't illustrate that and educate a customer that what you're presenting is a good value, then you won't be getting my business."

"Loved the way they left my driveway! They were quick but efficient on their work. Communicated with me any concerns and things that had to be done. Highly recommend if you need work done! "

"Great work on our stamped concrete patio. Clean finish, great attention to detail, and everything was done on time. Highly recommend!"

"Elias Contruction provided a detailed estimate after inspecting the roof and making some qualified recommendations. The project required a few change orders that were not clarified in writing. I would recommend hiring Elias if you get changes in writing. They cleaned up pretty well although they missed a few things due to finishing in the dark. Overall satisfied with the job and cost was 60% of other bids due to sheathing adjustment."

"These guys are amazing! I had a general idea of what I wanted, and Ryan and Brandon came out helped me bring my idea into reality. They’ve created a patio of pavers, a fire pit, a bench, a waterfall. They have planted trees and shrubbery brought in river rock, installed a couple of French drains where I needed them, and have worked with me every step of the way. In at least one instance, they got started with something where I told them to do it and then contacted me and said “it isn’t going to look right here” or “the way you want it won’t work. This is what I suggest”. And when it was done. It was better than I could’ve imagined. They are honest, reliable, professional, and proactive. I would hire them again in a heartbeat."

"They were on time for every meeting, they communicated constantly and zealously throughout the process. They finished the job on time (even when it included a little Saturday OT!) and they charged me exactly what they said they would charge. I could go on and on about how much I appreciate the way these guys do business. Hire them! In a world of non-responsive, late, over budget contractors Bach Custom Coatings stands out as a shining beacon of the possible."

"Well. Will use again. <br />"

"It turned out really, really well. During the process, I was really nervous because of how it looks in process. The concrete was difficult to stain because it was from different eras. He is very nice to work with and he listens to your concerns. He was efficient and got it all taken care of for us, despite my fears. The results are beautiful--it really looks good."
