Get matched with top concrete driveway pros in Elmhurst, IL

"The concrete cracked within the first week of being poured and nobody came to fix it. Also beware when dealing with Mike as he will charge you extra $1,000 or probably more to finish the job he starts. Itâ s a common business practice by him as a lot of customers are mentioning the same thing from Yelp, Homeadvisor.com, and Google Reviews. Read the reviews before dealing with Dependable Concrete. As a contractor Mike should know the price of materials beforehand and before quoting the customers. Mike demanded $1,000 more because of the increase of the cement price. Cement shortages have been going on for months and Mike should have taken that into account before giving the quote. Cement shortages aren't recent news. He waited until he removed the old driveway and then as the shady businessman that he is â he demanded extra money to finish the job when I was left with a big hole around my house. Beware as this is common practice by Dependable concrete if you read the reviews. Cement shortages or not â the original quote should have accounted for that. As a customer I donâ t ask my contractor to refund me the money if the price of material goes down in the future. Mike should stick to his original quote and price, but he doesnâ t do that. Stay away from Dependable Concrete â bad business to deal with and very poor quality â concrete cracks within days and nobody will come fix it after they take the money from you."

"Great company! I had a concrete driveway put in. Workers were excellent. Vito, owner was great to work with."

"We engaged Laffey Concrete for our home addition project after soliciting quotes from four different concrete companies. We ultimately chose Laffey Concrete because Travis struck us as a genuinely friendly and trustworthy individual. Although their estimate was not the lowestâ  landing in the middle rangeâ  Travis's demeanor left a positive impression on us. The initial phase involved laying the foundation, which they completed satisfactorily and passed inspection. However, once the concrete cured, we noticed that one side was uneven. Travis explained that they had "forgotten the level," but they managed to rectify the issue using epoxy filler. Additionally, we discovered that one of the workers had stepped into the slurry coat multiple times before it had set, leaving unsightly shoe prints throughout the crawlspace. Moving on to the second phase, which included the patio and concrete steps, we placed our trust in Laffey Concrete's claimed "expertise." Unfortunately, we were met with disappointment. After the completion of the patio and steps, we quickly observed that the steps were uneven, poorly finished, and marred by pockmarks and indentations, with the corners left unrefined. After the first rainfall, we were dismayed to find water pooling on the patio right in front of the steps. When I sent a photo to express my concerns, Travis assured me that the water would dissipate and that the area would eventually drain, but it never improved. After following up, he finally agreed to come by and assess the situation. He acknowledged that the pitch was incorrect and promised to fix it, which required tearing out about a third of the patio to achieve the proper slope. I often wondered why this issue wasn't addressed from the outset. Both my wife and I reached out to Travis multiple times regarding the condition of the steps. His responses were sporadic, filled with excuses about delays and reasons for not addressing the issues promptly, yet the subpar quality of the steps remained unresolved. Since then, several other concrete companies have evaluated Laffey Concrete's work and expressed disbelief at the quality we received."

"I wanted retaining walls done on the front and sides of my house and Blue Construction was great. They helped me figure out want would look best and didn't try to oversell me. The crew was professional and their work is incredible But I need to shout out their Office Staff, amazing customer service and amazing follow up response to calls or voice mails.."

"Great job, great price. Listened to needs and made suggestions to improve the project and get it done on budget. Thanks for the great experience."

"They got in trouble with the village for dumping gravel on the street (police came over to issue a citation), and then with the inspector for missing the inspection timeline. Once they finished the patio, I noticed that there was damage to the siding. They sent a guy to fix it; both times he didn't have enough material to fix all the damage. After that I was not able to get Luis to reimburse me for the fixes. My phone calls now go directly to his VM. I would talk about the patio work, but after all I think is best that you avoid this contractor."

"Jose Valdez and his crew not only got the job done well and efficiently, he went over and beyond what we expected. The quality of work on our new concrete patio and breaker wall exceeded our expectations!!! EXCELLENT work, skilled and professionalism is STELLAR! We have already secured our date in April 2025 to have our asphalt driveway replaced with a new concrete driveway for easier access in/out of our home! JOB WELL DONE! We highly recommend West Chicago Concrete, Inc. Thank you Jose, we look forward to seeing you in April. Five-Star rating we give you a Ten!"

"Santos was on time, on budget and reliable. He put in a new, larger window and installed a new toilet. I plan to hire him again to install a security door."
