"I saw a few bad reviews but enough positive reviews to give them a shot. Unfortunately, it appears the poor ratings were correct. The owner assessed the job, sagging floor boards on a pier and beam house, and incorrectly determined there was no subfloor and it was a joist issue. When I spoke to him on the phone before contracting on the project, he was certain that installing additional joists would resolve the top boards from being uneven and giving when weight was put on those sections. He told me, with no uncertainty, that I had a joist issue and not a flooring or a subfloor issue. After the work was completed, his employees that did the work told me that I did have a subfloor and there was nothing they could do about the small giving of the floor that was present. The owner made the incorrect assessment based on believing we did not have a subfloor and as a result, the solution he sold me was wrong. He sold me a $3,220 solution based off an incorrect assumption and the only suggestion has been to find a flooring contractor to pay and implement the actual solution. A respectable businessman would help make this right through refunding a portion of my money, paying the flooring contractor to finish the work, or at least attempting to see if additional joists would help. As a contractor I would have expected reputation to mean more to him."

"Due to the circumstance of severe damage from the same hurricanes that devastated Lake Charles and so much of the surrounding areas ( the same that caused my damage ) it took a while but... during the time it took I was constantly being contacted to let me know I wasn't forgotten and they would get to me as soon as they could. I always replied with something like, I want my repairs done but I have a house I can live in, my damage was cosmetic. I wanted them to know I was more interested in those in greater need to be seen to and knew they would get to me when they could... and they did. The only thing I can say is a negative is I no longer get to talk to Liz, she would always be the one calling me with the updates. She's a sweetheart. There were a few material hiccups but with all they were dealing with it was understandable and no big issue. They got here, were so friendly and kind, got the work done and we were good to go! I highly recommend this company."

FAQs for concrete patios, walks & steps installation projects in Lafayette, LA

Most sidewalks rely on a ready‑mix blend of Portland cement, sand, gravel, and water that trucks deliver to your site and pour in one continuous lift. For added strength, many contractors fold in fiber mesh or steel reinforcement. This mix cures into a rock‑solid slab that stands up to foot traffic, freeze‑thaw cycles, and daily wear for decades. Expect a pro to recommend a 4‑inch‑thick pour for standard walkways.

With the right mix, proper drainage, and routine upkeep, a concrete sidewalk can last 25 to 50 years. Freeze‑thaw cycles, road salt, and heavy loads all shorten that timeline, but sealing every few years and patching small cracks early keeps damage in check. Think of sealing as inexpensive insurance for decades of safe, stable footing. In milder climates, some slabs push well past the 30‑year mark without major repairs.

Concrete sidewalks crack as a result of significant temperature fluctuations and heavy load pressures. The freeze-thaw cycles and sustained weight from vehicles or intense foot traffic force the concrete to develop cracks over time. Applying a premium sealant every two to three years and substituting salt with sand for de-icing minimizes crack formation. Regular maintenance and timely repairs safeguard the sidewalk’s structural integrity and extend its service life.
