Custom Concrete Resurfacing

Looks 100% better than the pitted mess it was before. Added decorative edge if that is really sharp.

Initially, it went well but within a year, the entire crack in the patio between sections started crumbling. The entire length next to garage disintegrated. He had a new crew come out the second year to repair both and within 1 season, the entire repaired areas has broken free. In almost all areas, you can see the original concrete in patches several inches long. Plus, all new new paint that his crew put down looks like it was oversprayed and no longer has the original texture, much like bubbling paint. I paid an additional $700+ for this 'new' look. I took picture and will likely post on a website for everyone to see. I am being brutally honest. Feel free to come look at the walk by my garage and you will see what the entire job looks like. 885 Linden Pl (condos).

Removal of the section of the back patio to be replaced required saw cutting of the concrete and providing temporary support of the patio roof above the supports where the concrete was to be replaced. The work crew and I discussed the saw cutting prior to the work, and accomplished it as I desired. The temporary support of the patio roof was accomplished with minimal impact on the existing patio roof support structure. Breaking up of the existing concrete to be replaced was accomplished using a jackhammer and sledge hammers. The crew was able to provide the existing patio dimensions even though access was somewhat difficult due to the bushes that had grown up since the original patio placement. A crushed rock base was placed prior to the concrete placement. A motorized concrete "hauler" was used to transport the concrete from the delivery truck to the back patio. That worked effectively even though some awkward maneuvering of the hauler was required. An additional 8 to 10 inches of concrete was placed beneath the spots where the patio roof supports were to be reinstalled. The existing driveway concrete was broken up for removal mostly by jackhammer, but with some sledge hammer use. The new driveway was formed to the same dimensions as the original, and with minimal impact on the existing lawn and sprinkler systems. I was easily able to replace removed sod and sprinklers. A crushed rock base was placed prior to concrete placement. The new concrete was placed in 3 segments--the driveway left side, the driveway right side and the sidewalk/street approach. The work crew was knowledgeable in the special requirements of the city of Idaho Falls for the sidewalk and street approach. There were no difficulties with the inspection required. The contractor was thorough in removal and disposal of all construction debris. The final concrete surface finish has a slight repetitive "swirl" that we consider attractive. The work crew was on site and working every day and were punctual. I did provide access to a bathroom in our basement for their use. They were careful in their use. The construction time for back patio and driveway was about 2 weeks. Communication with the contractor and the work crew was cordial and useful. Drive by and inspect our new driveway.

The new porch was poured in one day and is beautiful! The same with the driveway. I have never seen people work so hard and with such proficiency to produce exactly what we wanted. We will be coming back with more work!

We had CCR resurface our front porch and steps. We love the look of the finished product! It looks like tiny pebbles. It was done almost 4 years ago and still looks really great!
