"The 2 young gentlemen were so nice and polite. They worked quickly and did not recommend any unnecessary parts or labor. I will call on them again when needed."

"Heartland Foundations are very professional and did an outstanding job on my deck and concrete pad.  I thought the price was very fair and they addressed any concerns I had about other jobs I was doing around my house.  They were very clean, they were on time, and communicated with me about all the details.  They went the extra mile to make a very sturdy deck for my price point.  The city inspector thought they did an excellent job on the deck.  I don't want to give too good of a review because I'm going to use them in the future and I don't want their schedule to be too busy.    <br /> Thanks for the great work! <br />"

"They did an excellent job. They finished the job sooner than I expected. incredibly impressed with them. Very professional."

"Job was done quickly and well done."

"Wasn't sure what to put for a rating. After a couple calls back and forth we agreed for them to come out to do an estimate while I was at work. that was over a week ago and I haven't heard back. I'm sure their work is good and they were nice on the phone. Don't pass them by because of my rating but understand that, for me, I fell through the cracks."

"I can recommend Contreras Concrete LLC. Emigdo and his crew did a wonderful job building 2 large retaining walls (and a driveway) for us. Of the four bids I received his was the lowest and he still did an outstanding job just to give you an idea, he did it for around half of what my some of my other bids were. And in working with him, Iâ d be happy to refer him to anyone. His crew was prompt, respectful, and worked hard. They showed up when they said they were and believe me thatâ s hard to find these days."

"They told me it will start in a week or two."

"While it's a very long story, I want to deliver the info without boring. Essentially, we had contracted with a different company back in April. After some travel and a very rainy season, work with Company X commenced just after memorial day. I was very patient, and also had good references for this company, so I watched as the work began. <br /> -ABOUT THE JOB: This was/is not your average job. It was a patio designed by an architect an was very modern, custom walls, firepit, and tricky. The first company looked at it multiple times and repeatedly claimed they were up for the job (the job needed steel forms, but they assured me they could build to support it...after all, they have been in the biz 40 years). <br /> Moving on, and in a nutshell, it was delay after delay, after delay. To top, when they finally poured, the walls ended up bowing, and the concrete mix had too much air in it: It was ripped out two weeks later. <br /> *********JUST CONCRETE TO THE RESCUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!******************** <br /> After cutting ties with the first company, I looked around online for another company (Angie's list, google search, even went the craigslist route...Yikes!!!). Juan had a posting that included pictures of similar walls, and I could tell that the job used steel forms. Cautiously, I called him, and he showed up to view the job that day. He viewed the other company's work, and quickly and intelligently showed me why they failed. We agreed to a price for the job, and he showed up the next week when he said he was going to. What's more, is that I got so used to the prior company's delays, that Juan moved amazingly fast with quality. I expected at least 5-7 days for the job....Juan started on a Thursday, worked both Saturday and Sunday, and was done by noon on Sunday. He was very flexible in making small changes as we went. As stated, this was a one of a kind job...and he was able to knock it out of the park in only a few days. Had I not lost money on the last company, I would have tipped him an extra couple hundred dollars. <br /> It is very hard these days to find a medium sized company that does both great/timely work, but also charges fair prices. I would recommend Juan and his work ethic to anyone...and I already have. <br />"

"Very well. They are very, very good painters. They caulked, sealed, and pushed in nails and did a great job and I was very happy with the serivce. The paint is holding up very well."

"Once the contract was signed, communication from the project leader (same person that finalized the contract for the company) was dismal; so much that we had to do a significant amount of follow-up to insure the work being done represented what we had contracted the company to do. Examples: <br /> <ol> <li>The team was supposed to be onsite Monday morning. It had rained overnight and the start date was moved to Tuesday, but no one called to inform us the start date was moved until 2:00 PM on Monday - after I made two calls inquiring about the status. If teams are not out working then someone should be able to contact the customers and let them know.</li> <li>When the team arrived Tuesday morning, the project leader appeared to be reviewing with the 2-man team what needed to be done and then he left. He knew I worked from home, but made no attempt to talk with me about "the plan" for the day. I introduced myself to the two workers and asked the foreman if the project leader indicated what they were to do with the existing brick edging. He said "no". (I knew this to be the case b/c the project leader was supposed to check with me that morning.) I let the foreman know and the team kindly stacked the bricks elsewhere on the property.</li> <li>After the initial wall and edging were installed around the mature trees, I noticed the team was putting the river rock back into the bed. I approached the foreman and asked if the project leader told him that the landscape fabric around the trees was supposed to be replaced. The answer was "no". I suggested he discuss this with the project leader because I didn't want them to have to rework what they were doing. A few minutes thereafter the project leader arrived and confirmed this with the team.</li> <li>The project leader agreed to meet with us at the end of the first day of work. When his plans changed, he sent an email instead of calling. We left a voice mail on his cell phone expressing our disappointment that he let us know this by email instead of calling and that we wanted a call back. We also left a message at the office for the president and a vice president stating we wanted someone else to meet with if the project leader could not meet with us that evening. Shortly afterward, the project leader called and said he would meet with us.</li> <li>Toward the end of the first day, we felt that the results were not meeting our expectations as discussed with the project lead when finalizing the contract (i.e., the wall was supposed to go across the front and around each front corner and stop at or just past the front trees, there was significant spacing between the stones). As part of the meeting at the end of the first day, the project manager agreed to have these items addressed. The next day when the team was re-working the wall, I noticed that there was still significant spacing between the stones and asked the foreman whether the project leader talked to him about tightening up the space between the stones. He said "No".</li> <li>During a meeting with the project leader, he acknowledged that all the stone from the company's yard had been brought to the worksite and that he probably under-estimated the amount needed. He was going to contact a supplier the next day to see if they had more of the stone. That day came and went with no contact from the project leader, team or company about the additional stone. On Thursday morning, I called the project lead to inquire what the plan was for moving forward and learned that he had a family emergency the day before. He did, however, send someone else to the supplier's location and that he was going to have to make a trip there himself. I am sympathetic to the family emergency. Life happens! But here is another opportunity where someone else could have and should have made a call to the customer to communicate the status of the efforts.</li> <li>When the team completed the work, no one let us know they were done. The team left and the project leader never contacted us to confirm the job was completed nor inquire whether we had questions/concerns or were satisfied.</li> </ol> <br /> Additional points: <br /> <ul> <li> The project was estimated to take one day with three employees; it took 3.5 days over one week.</li> <li> Prior to the final day the team worked on our property, I verbally discussed with the project leader that all debris would be cleaned-up from the property (as stated in the contract). However, after they left the property and for the next few days, I spent approximately 1-2 hours picking up debris and river rock throughout the front yard.</li> </ul> <br /> Summary: <br /> All the company's employees were polite, respectful and professional. When the team had to change directions due to a lack of information/communication, they did it. At one point they broke a saw blade trying to shape the stones so that spacing was not an issue. They yard team worked hard. The final product was good/acceptable, and we are generally pleased with the results. However, it took an insane amount of time, effort, and follow-up on our part. <br /> <br /> I took the opportunity to speak with the company president and share the positive and negative experiences. He was very receptive to my comments and apologetic for the frustrations we experienced. He said he would review my feedback with the team so they could improve their customer service. Later, he provided a $250.00 credit to the final balance owed on the project."
