Doheny Concrete Construction, Inc.

Excellent work. Not only was the problem area repaired, but Doheny was the only contractor that actually proposed a solution to the underlying reason the problem occured.

The owner was excellent and met my expectations.

Shay and team were ultimate professionals. They went above and beyond when it came to the quality of work, and didn't cut any corners. They delivered on budget and on time, which is SO RARE these days. Definitely call them for any concrete work!

I got three quotes from recommended and well-established foundation reconstruction firms. They all did an onsite assessment and submitted proposals. I hired a civil engineer to evaluate those proposals for me, after he also inspected my home himself. He recommended Shay Aboav and Doheny concrete Construction above the others, and he also interviewed Mr. Aboav to doublecheck on details of the proposal. DOHENY'S PROPOSAL WAS SUBSTANTIALLY LESS MONEY THAN THE OTHER TWO. The work was completed on schedule, documented fully, and executed very nicely. It seemed quite complex to me. Cleanup was prompt and thorough. Customer service, outstanding.

Shay and were amazing!! Best contractor experience. I paid for a very pricey garage conversion with another contractor/builder BECAUSE the old, original structure was taking in water... only to discover leaking the minute the rains begin 2023. The water warped the floors and caused mold. Shay walked the job site, diagnosed the problem and solved it with a concrete surround that is deep enough, wide enough and slightly graded to guarantee the water has no entry point anywhere on the perimeter of the building. The concrete work was expertly constructed, poured and leveled. It looks so good that I'm sorry I already planned to cover it with tile! After completing the water mitigation, I also asked them to increase my stucco wall height so I could finally level the awkwardly sloped front yard, and I'm so glad I did! The wall looks like it's always been that high and the front yard is finally functional and inviting. I will be recommending Shay to ALL my friends and don't think there's a better choice in the business.

Shay is very knowledgeable about foundations and working with concrete. He went out of his way to educate me about several issues I needed to address and then he executed the work in a timely manner. He and his team are very professional. From what I can tell, the work done by Doheny Concrete is first class and I can easily recommend Shay for foundation and concrete related work. (work completed: created a crawl space access system, repaired and replaced several pier/post structures under the house)

Shay is the best. He is very knowledgeable about concrete and foundations. Very customer service oriented. He comes up with creative solutions for problems that people have. Heâ s also very honest and doesnâ t try to convince you to get something done that doesnâ t really need to be done. I had water intrusion in my front room that faces the front planter. He dug up all the plants in the planter, but saved the palm trees. He waterproofed the walls and then placed sloped concrete in the planter and holes in the planter wall to drain the water out when it arrived it rained hard. I highly recommend this company.

I have a small 100 yr old raised foundation craftsman bungalow. The raised perimeter foundation was deteriorating and needed repair/replacement. This work was also done in conjunction with earthquake bolting. Shay and his crew were very professional & responsive. Details I requested to the quote were added and there were no surprises. Work area was kept clean and the area was buttoned up each night. I was apprised of the inspections status and deliveries. He saved me tens of thousands of dollars over over bids that wanted to do more and expensive work than was necessary. I highly recommend him.

We loved working with Shay. He and his team were friendly, punctual, and professional. They were very transparent about the whole process. He also didnâ t push us into doing more work than we needed to do. He also went over things we could do to keep the foundation in good shape, like getting rid of some of the trees and had up against our house.

Doheny concrete is one of the last honest construction companies that does quality work. They gave us a fair price for foundation repair of our house after an outrageous quote from another company. They helped us get our house back on the market. They immediately responded to any questions/concerns. I highly recommend!

GREAT experience with this contractor. I can't say enough. I look forward to recommending this company to friends and family.

Professional, Knowledgeable, Efficient

Doheny did excellent work, exactly on the timeline promised. Every step was done with professionalism, and they kept me appraised as to what was happening and why. Shay timely secured all necessary inspections and permits, and I am planning to use them or future work and have recommended them to several friends and acquaintances.

I know for a fact that they do a job to fulfill their promise!

Very professional, and easy for me as owner to speak with and feel confident in the work which needed to be done. And it was done well and promptly and fully in compliance with the city requirements. Would not hesitate to recommend him to others. KKB

Shay was a consummate professional throughout the whole process. He was great to work with, was upfront and transparent in all our dealings, explaining everything each step of the way. I was so impressed by Shay that I am going to hire him to build an ADU (provided I can get the permits) for about $100K. I would recommend Doheny Concrete to anyone and everyone.

Fast, efficient and on schedule.

Very fast setting up in a concrete foundation for earthquake protection. T

professional and helpful

Very sharp & skillful.

good

The only flaw I saw was in clean-up. Crews dumped cement-laden clean-up water in my garden. Every concrete company I have worked with has the same problem, but I still dinged Doheny half a star for this. Be sure you insist to Shay where the equipment can be cleaned.

My house does not sit on level lot. Westside of house had the foundation raised, leveled and rest of foundation repaired. House was built over 45 years ago. Mr. Aboav explained in detail what had to be done. I actually accompanied him under my house to see the before and after results. All interior cracks caused by the leveling were patched and are ready for painting. None of the other estimates I received included as much detail and pictures to show me what to expect after the work would be completed. I don't know how else to explain it, but before Mr. Aboav started the repairs, he drew me a detailed map with pictures.

Shay and his team were wonderful to work with. They were courteous, diligent and very professional. They raised our foundation since some areas were lumpy and uneven from bad drainage over time. They also retrofitted our house so that is was up to retrofitting code. He then poured concrete around our house foundation so that water wouldn't ruin it anymore. Shay took pride in his work and it showed. I would definitely recommend Shay and his team and would use them again myself!
