Get matched with top concrete patios, walks & steps installers in Piney Flats, TN

"Greg did a great job bringing the life back to an old patio, looks 10X better and stronger."

"Arrived as scheduled with a six man crew. Did grading adding and removing stone as required, but did not roll the graded area prior to asphalt work, which really should have been done. Installed asphalt. My driveway is rather long with an enlarged parking area in front of the garage, 42'x42'. These folks had problems with making sure the asphalt was laid at the same thickness throughout the entire lay of material. They could not finish the project in one day so when they came back the second day they were installing hot asphalt against the previous day's work [cold asphalt], which caused poor seam development. The paving machine they had was too small for this project, but I was not told that before they started. Hence the driveway has highs and lows in it. I am not pleased with this after paying as much as I did for the job. Brought back the owner and expressed my dissatisfaction with the highs and lows and was given a 'story' as to how I had to let the asphalt 'settle in'. "Patching low areas by adding material will not look good" as stated by the owner. Hence at this point I knew where the conversation was heading. I have been in construction for over thirty [30] years, and asphalt does not 'settle in'! Only option is to go to court for a settlement, and it is not really worth my time. Sure wish they had had a larger paving machine. Seams both hot and cold are VERY visible and not good looking at all. Overall the job is okay to the normal homeowner I would assumne, but having experience in construction I know it could have been completed in a better format using a larger paving machine and doing a continuous lay of material. Just too big a job for these folks. They tried, but their quialty of their finished project leaves much room for improvement . All could be finished to a better level of completion by coming back and adding another 1 1/2" of material to the entire driveway. That would fill the low areas and give a more finished even look to the entire drive."

"Very pleased that removal was done in one day with the grading for new areas. Concrete was poured and finished within six hours on a following day. Workers worked so hard it made my muscles hurt just watching them."

"I give him a fair rating because he did pick up the phone and continue to engage. There is a bad pattern of contractors in this region ghosting you for better jobs. I have remodeled multiple properties and own rental units in the region so I am familiar with the process. I contacted him by phone and he shut me down pretty quick to just text him the specs of the job. I provided him very concise description of the work involved via text. He quoted me a price of $875 to set 46 blocks, labor only. I thought this was an extremely high price compared to the $150-600 quotes I had received for the same job. The reason I continued to engage Steve was because the other contractors had a longer lead time and time is money. After that he asked me to drive 45 minutes to a job he was at to sign a “contract” for the work. When I called him to set the meeting place he asked if I “brought my check book”. This set me off a bit. As a background and complete transparency, I am a degreed engineer that has been responsible for the bidding and construction of multi-million dollar projects. I recognize that this does not make me qualified to truly judge a small residential job like I was asking Steve to do but it does give me perspective. My issue with Steve beyond his incredibly high price was that he wanted almost 80% deposit on a labor only job with a large window to completion in his “contract”. He did say he hoped to finish much sooner than that, but any down payment on a labor only agreement should be at 25% or not at all. When I pushed back he tried to tell me it was “standard practice” which I can assure it is not. I was done at this point. He did back off this, but acted like he was doing me a favor. I then asked about the quantity of mortar I had purchased was sufficient (it was in the bed of my truck) and he told me it was way too much. I agree that it was more than needed (it’s $10 a bag, does it really matter?) but to fill the cores it was not too excessive. He told me that was not part of the deal and would cost $150-300 more, now a $300 job for $1,200. In his defense I did not spec the block fill, but for almost $900 I figured he would plate it in gold for me. After reviewing the “contract” I had to drive 45 minutes to see I decided it was best to talk away from a contractor like this. I understand trying to protect your self and your business, but this was excessive. As I was getting in my truck I hard Steve say something along the line of “I have time in this”. I am guessing he is referring to reading a text message, typing a bs contract and spending 20 minutes trying to collect a check. He never came to the site, I had to come to him, I know he doesn’t want to pay my hourly rate. I quoted “contract” several time in my comment. I deal with construction contracts every day and what Steve gave me was not a contract prepared by a Tennessee attorney. It would be easily defeated in court, I say this if you have been wronged by him. I will never deal with Steve again because of the way he acted. His work may be great, but dealing with bs is not worth it. Steve, reading your other review responses I assume you will leave a detailed response as to why I am uniformed and not knowledgeable about your process. I promise that I am both informed, knowledgeable, and ready to defend myself and my statements."

"Jim and Rhonda from A-1 Concrete were awesome to work with.  They were quick to respond and come out to give me an estimate.  I got on their schedule the same day as they were booked for several weeks.  They were great to communicate and let me know when they could come and do the work.  They arrived on schedule and were quick to set up and get started.  Watching the process was really amazing and I learned a lot from talking to them during the job.  They've been doing this a long time and their confidence put me at ease.  I was 100% satisfied with the work they did and my wife and I both really enjoyed talking with them and getting to know them.  They are wonderful folks.  I've already called about another job and I have recommended them to several friends. <br />"

"The job went very smoothly!"

"He did a good job and made sure it's done right."

"I was pleased with the level of communication, punctuality, and level of detail that Sonny put into developing an estimate for our driveway install. I believe that the end result would have been a low maintenance driveway. However, the cost was outside of our budget and we have decided to go another direction. <br />"

"Clay and Josh finished the job on time and did excellent work on replacing the sheetrock and studs in garage walls that were damaged by termites. I strongly recommend Eagle Contracting for any work that you need done."

"Good job - we were pleased with the bathroom tile flooring job.  It was too cold that day to paint the window frames, so the worker returned promptly when the weather warmed to do that job. <br /> <br />"
