"I can not recommend Americo and would encourage others to find another contractor. We were referred to Rick Criscella and went with his quote to replace our large concrete driveway. They subcontracted all of the work and despite providing a one-year warranty on workmanship and materials would not offer to rectify any of the failed project. You can see in the pictures- after one year there is extensive spidering, cracking, pitting and discoloration across the driveway. Thee team completely forgot to consider drainage when pouring the slab, and decided to run pvc around the outside, which does not flow downhill. The water under the driveway cause heaving and cracking in the first freeze. The team left massive amounts of rubble that I'm still finding in the gardens, and I hounded Rick for a year to come look and only received "on my way soon" messages. Pay more to work with a reputable contractor, this isn't it."

Since 1971, Bruno Morelli, Morelli Concrete, LLC, has been a family owned business that proudly serves the North Hills of Pittsburgh, PA and surrounding areas. Pete, my son, has also been working with the business since his teens and is getting prepared for his eventual take-over of our business. We always stand behind our work, because we are experienced not only to do the job, but to do the job right. For most of our jobs, depending on the size, we DO NOT require a down payment. We can do this because we know that when we are finished our customers are completely satisfied with the job.
"Pete and his crew initially started our project of concrete around the pool with retaining wall and patio concrete slab 9/2021. Few issues that arose no fault of Pete, was the slide dimension and walkway needed to clear the solar cover was inaccurate and not enough concrete was poured for both of them. That was the fault of the pool company for giving inaccurate measurements to Pete. Pete stated he would correct this problem and add more concrete so the slide could be anchored onto the concrete and add more concrete to allow a walkway on the side of the pool. Another issue that Pete was notified right away was the retaining wall was not high enough and runoff/rain water was flowing over the top of the retaining wall and through the retaining wall causing muddy water to encroach into the pool area. He initially stated that once landscaping was complete it would fix this. However that was not the case. He was again notified and he promised to raise the retaining wall to correct this problem, yet he never showed up and continued to ignore our calls. Third issue was the concrete lining the pool already started to crack off and was found at the bottom of the pool. Fourth issue was the top blocks of the retaining wall were damaged. Several portions of the retaining wall were carved into and did not appear to be brand new. He promised he would replace these with new. Yet, he never showed back up. Fifth issue, the concrete patio cracked within several months. Sixth issue, the additional concrete was never sealed and is also now cracked. To attempt to correct the the first issue, He staked the project out 10/12/21 completed around 10/25/21. His crew was using a stamp for the concrete and the stamp for the new concrete was off-centered causing the concrete to be noticeably abnormal. When he was notified of this eyesore, he actually stated he realized this mistake… didn’t feel the need to tell us though. He promised us he would correct this by removing the concrete and pouring new. He would tell us on a weekly basis that he was coming to correct this problem and then he would never show up. We would call him and text him and he wouldn’t answer or reply. We have all encounters documented for proof. December 2021 came around and he stated due to poor weather conditions, we would be the first customer of 2022 and that we were “on the books!” Spring 2022 came around and he would continue to lead us on and telling us that he will be there on specific days and then again he wouldn’t answer his phone or texts. He kept ghosting us and texting us what we wanted to hear… it is now 1 year later and it’s still not fixed. He continues to screen our phone calls and rarely answers. Due to this delay, we were unable to complete this project until all these issues are corrected. We are awaiting to complete landscaping and install fend around property until this has been corrected. We would highly suggest thinking twice before you agree to have this company perform work at your house. We are shocked by their unprofessionalism, lack of respect and lack of pride in their work. Their slogan is that they stand behind their work; however clearly this is not true. Hopefully, I am able to post photos to prove the extent of our situation."

A properly installed concrete slab can last anywhere from 30 to 100 years. Factors that impact its lifespan include timely repairs of cracks or breaks, local weather conditions, and the type of concrete used. Consulting with a local concrete contractor can give you a more accurate estimate based on your area's climate.
Concrete takes 26 to 30 days to cure to its full strength. After 24 to 48 hours, a 4-inch concrete slab is solid enough to walk on without leaving footprints. After seven days, it should be cured to at least 70% of its full strength. Proper curing is essential for the slab's durability and longevity.
Maintaining your concrete slab properly extends its life and keeps it looking its best. Regularly clean away dirt and debris, and promptly remove stains and spills like car oil or fertilizers. Avoid using harsh chemicals or de-icers that can damage the concrete. Keep heavy machinery and oversized vehicles off your driveway, and consider sealing your concrete to renew its appearance. Remember that while concrete is strong and durable, it isn't designed to support extremely heavy loads without proper reinforcement.
Choosing between a precast concrete slab and pouring concrete on-site depends on your project's size and location. Precast slabs are poured off-site and delivered ready to install, which can save time and ensure consistent quality. However, for larger areas or sites with access limitations, pouring concrete on-site may be more practical. Discuss your options with a local concrete contractor to determine the best choice for your project.
A concrete floor differs from a concrete slab in both its finish and function. A concrete floor is an indoor surface that is polished, coated, or stained for enhanced aesthetics and durability, while a concrete slab is an unfinished base designed to support structures such as sheds, garages, or patios. The finishing process adds visual appeal and protection for interior use, making it suitable for everyday living spaces. Each application is tailored to its intended environment and performance requirements.
When pouring a concrete slab, you must account for extra costs beyond the base price. Additional expenses include reinforcement additions, decorative enhancements like staining or stamping, drainage installation, and permit fees required by local regulations. These factors impact the overall project cost and should be discussed with a professional to ensure an accurate budget.
