David McLeroy founded the business in 1993 and has worked in the concrete business most of his life. As David, a Norcross native, explains, “I am in the concrete business because I grew up in the concrete business. I started helping my father in his concrete business in 1979 when I was 16.”
David is a hands-on owner and performs much of the most critical work himself. Concrete Replacement Specialists carries both workers’ compensation and liability insurance and guarantees its work against spalling and flaking.
According to David, “We bend over backward to please our customers and do the job right. The biggest compliment we get is when a happy customer either calls us back for more work or recommends us to their friends. We don’t sacrifice quality for price.”

Did a great job. Worked with David McLeroy who was great. gave quote on the spot. We had compared pricing with other vendors. David wasn't the cheapest vendor that quoted but he took my husband and I to a current project and liked the work we saw going on. He was prompt and on time with the project. Communication was great even when project was postponed due to weather. Would highly recommend to anyone.
Description of Work: created new sidewalk and steps in front of house. It's a pretty long walkway and had 15 steps involved in the project.

.David came and gave me an immediate quote on the day and time we agreed on. He listened to what I wanted done and why (primarily safety issues). He showed up to do the work on the time we had agreed ( after negotiating the day to accomodate my needs and the weather report.) He and his crew, Carlos and Carlos, accomplished the whole job in one day as he said they would. He double checked with me about the layout of the front path before pouring the concrete and willingly changed it when I said I wanted a more gradual curve. David remained on site during the entire job. David returned 2 days later and completed removing the wooden forms and the final clean up. David's price was not the cheapest quote I got nor the most expensive, but I am entirely satisfied with the work he and his crew did. He was personable. friendly and answered all my questions
Description of Work: David replaced my uneven front steps with even 5 1/2 "risers instead of 6,8 and 10 1/2 ". Demolished old concrete front footpath and constructed a new, curved path to the front steps. Replaced old, steep basement entry stairs with shallower ,even steps.Constructed a new path connecting basement steps with back door steps. Hauled off old demolished concrete and even some old broken paver stones I wanted to get rid of.

They were really responsive with the quote. They had almost an immediate opening and since our driveway was a priority project for us, they came out two days later. They came promptly in the morning and committed to finish by the end of the day. They put the joint controls in the right place. They cleaned up all debris and even when some tree roots were left behind, we called them and they came and picked up the remaining roots. Four days later, we were able to drive on the new apron. They did great and fast work.
Description of Work: The apron of our driveway was getting uprooted by a tree so we needed to replace that part of the driveway.

The work was completed in a timely fashion.There was a lot of time between estimate and the actual work but that was not their fault alone. I was late getting back with them as well and there was a problem with finding the stone that we had agreed on. The rest of the information on the work can be found above.
Description of Work: The price for the replacement of my driveway and the stone wall was very good when compared with the other quotes received. The team was on time and completed the job in a timely manner. My only concern was their attention to detail. The drive way is two different 'whites; and there are piece of concrete that are a spill over onto other areas. There were also 'holes' in the stone block that they did not cover. When asked to do so, the owner did cover the holes but again the attention to detail was not there. I have found that after a heavy rain, water now comes into my garage which never happened before. Although the price was good, those who are detailed oriented will not be pleased with the outcome. If minor details do not bother you, then their work will be acceptable.

We interviewed several top Angie's List companies when looking for someone to replace our driveway. We chose Concrete Replacement Specialists after talking with David McLeroy, the owner. These are some of the reasons: His extensive knowledge and experience with concrete replacement is evident in his work (I spoke with references he provided and looked at his work), and his track record speaks for itself (great reviews). He thoroughly and patiently answered each of my questions, and walked me through the details of our driveway replacement. I felt that he answered my questions honestly, instead of saying what he thought I wanted to hear (like some other companies). He is easy to work with, and I felt very comfortable with him. David was willing to tackle a complicated problem with our brick front steps that other companies were not willing to try. We are thrilled with the result. Throughout the process, he kept us informed and stuck to his word. His crew are all professional and respectful. The yard looked great when they left. We did have one minor issue with a small section of the driveway. Even though the problem was rare and not necessarily guaranteed, David made the repair. We couldn't be happier with our beautiful new driveway, and will recommend this company without hesitation.

I thought the service was excellent. He is a long standing cement guy, so he did excellent work and everything was good. The design and flow was perfect. The quality of the base was excellent. Him and his family did a good job. The drive way was well done and he was more than willing to come back and help me with any concerns I had.

It was a reasonable price. They did an excellent job. They did it in a neighborhood with a lot of kids. I was at work when he came, and he stayed after the job was finished for a couple of hours to make sure the kids didn't get on it. He is very good. The work was above and beyond.

From the moment we reached out to Concrete Replacement Specialists (CRS) to the time the project was completed, it was evident we chose the best for the job. The finished product is excellent. We could not be more pleased. CRS is professional, knowledgable, hardworking, and a pleasure to do business with. Their team explained the scope of the project, accurately projected the timeframe for completion, and actually came under the original estimated quote. I would strongly recommend CRS.
Description of Work: Concrete Replacement Specialists built a 40' wide x 4' tall retaining wall around the exterior of our in-ground pool. The pool was built on an elevated portion of the backyard. Over time, the sides of the elevated landscape began to erode, causing the pool decking to raise and crack. We were concerned that any future erosion would cause extensive damage to the pool. Not only did Concrete Replacement Specialists correct the problem, we now have a beautiful retaining wall that provides for additional landscaping features.

I went to their website off Angie's List and filled out the form for a quote. They were the 4th quote I got and came out on March the 3rd, on Saturday, and got in tough with me within 48 hours of filling out the form on the website. The other one I used called me yesterday, so this guy is really good. I give him the highest ratings based upon his response and not the work, yet.
Description of Work: They are coming tomorrow. They are replacing my entire driveway.

I got 4 quotes and David McLeroy's was competitive-- matching the lower end and about $1000 less than the highest. From the first meeting, he impressed me with his responsiveness and knowledge. He gave me a quote that same visit. Once I informed him he had the job, he was able to schedule the work within a week. Everyone showed up when promised, and David was on site and working along with the crew the entire time. They broke up and hauled off all the old concrete. The main work on the driveway and sidewalk were done in less a day. Part of the crew came back the next day and removed the forms and cleaned up the street and surrounding areas using a pressure washer. They did a great job, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company.
Description of Work: I have a short, sloping driveway that needed to be replaced-- patching wasn't an option. A sinkhole had developed due to the dirt getting washed away underneath part of the old driveway. It was a treI also had the sidewalk that connected the drive with the front door replaced.

Dave was responsive throughout the entire process, from quote to punchlist. Dave offered options durning his site review to provide more cost effective solutions that met my needs and were below my budget. I would not hesitate to recomend Dave to friends and use him in the fututre for additional work.

We were impressed with their presentation. They were prompt, did their bid fast and on the spot and gave it to us right there. The people knew what they were doing, but we did not actually have the work done. Our impression was favorable and they were our number one probably out of the 6 we got bids from.
Description of Work: Concrete Replacement Specialists Inc. gave us a bid in October.
I contacted Dave McLeroy at Concrete Replacement Services after getting a positive reference from a neighbor and reading reviews here on Angie's List. Called and got a response back in a short time (less than a day) and was able to get a visit to do an estimate at my convenience a day later. The estimate was quite reasonable for the size (approximate 20' x 50' driveway) including removal of the old, putting down a core, pouring the concrete and some finish work. It included some cutting around three pillars that were staying. Actual work was done within a week of the estimate, again schedules at my convenience and handled relative to the weather. The demolishing, pour and trim finish was wrapped in two days. Very pleased with the quality and their professionalism. Would recommend, and would use again.

The owner came out and he was very professional, he was willing to work with us and stay in touch. He put everything in detail on the estimate and he was very willing to do the work. Everything was very up front and honest. The permit process is complex in our city and he was willing to take care of that while other contractors wanted us to take care of getting the permit and that is why we chose him to do the work.

David, the owner, came out the day after we called to give us an estimate, and was very flexible when it came to scheduling the work. He and his crew arrived right on time and did the tear out and forming quickly and efficiently, and the pouring went very smoothly. He was also very helpful and patient with the trowel at the end, letting us get our two sons' hand prints in an unobtrusive location, which we all appreciated. Everything was performed on time and within the estimate, and the driveway looks great--I'd definitely recommend this company.

He was a nice guy and was very prompt, but it was just not cost effective. The concrete needed to be removed and it ended up being dug out and turned out that old tree roots were buried underneath the driveway and needed to be removed. He showed up when he said he would, was very timely and was able to provide the quote right then and there.

They were knowledgeable and they did exactly what they said they were going to do. They did a great job. Everything was done right and we have not had any problems.
Description of Work: They tore out my existing driveway and replaced it with a new 300 foot concrete driveway.
Outstanding, A+, honest and fair company that gave me the absolute lowest price, I actually paid them more because they forgot to add on additional work to the final invoice.
Description of Work: They took up 2 1/2 tons of concrete block first. Then, they put in a concrete patio in the backyard behind the carport. They also did a brick wall because the patio was lower than the carport, and also did the step work for that and a border around the patio.
I was very pleased with the speed and professionalism of their work. Work was completed within 7 days after estimate was given. Actual work took 3 1/2 days. They repaired heavy equipment damage to grass a brought yard to pre-work conditions.
Description of Work: 50 x 18 ft driveway ripped up and replaced, 40 x 4 ft sidewalk ripped up and replaced, front steps to home rebuilt, 20 x 23 ft patio pad ripped up and replaced, and crushed rock placed under deck.
