Horrible.
Description of Work: I called to get a quote for a garage foundation/floor. The lady that answered the phone I could hardly understand with her broken English. I did hear her say we don't do foundations, only flat work. I said you do garages and she said yes, but not foundations. A garage floor is more than just a floor or flat work. So instead of arguing with me what you do or don't do, have the experience to answer potential customer's questions and understand what they are looking for. If this is the first line of communication with this company, then it is the last for me. There are way too many companies that would love business. I guess thi sis not one of them.

Response from Concrete Hero
We appreciate receiving feedback, as we are always looking for ways to improve our business. However, we do not understand the basis for the above review and the reasoning for your poor rating of our professionalism. You contacted our company looking for an estimate on a foundation, to which we replied we do not do foundations. You then mentioned it was a garage foundation, to which we tried to explain we only do garage floor replacements and not garage floor/foundation combinations. You hung up the phone saying you were going to write a bad review. We did call you back right after you hung up to try and explain, however you hung up again. We only replace garage floors that are poured separate from the foundation. These are typically found in attached garages. We no longer, however, pour a garage floor/foundation combination—also known as a monolithic slab—found mostly on detached garages. We apologize for any confusion; it appears there may have been some on both ends. But we retained professionalism throughout the conversation and would have appreciated a fair opportunity to further explain the type of work we do. Also, we do apologize if it was difficult for you to understand Melina, the owner’s wife. She certainly does have an Italian accent. We pride ourselves as a small, family-run company and many customers appreciate that quality of our business.

It was excellent dealing with Catalano Concrete Construction Inc. After calling for an estimate, the owner Sal called back quickly and made an appointment to come out and see what the job would entail. He checked everything out, made his measurements and went back to his truck to work up an estimate right there and then. We approved the estimate and made an appointment to have the work done. Catalano's crew showed up on the day they promised right on time first thing in the morning. The old concrete was broken up and removed, the whole area was dug out, framed out, stone base poured and compacted, extra dirt and debris removed, the whole area cleaned up and the crew was gone by mid afternoon! After our village inspector made the necessary visual inspections and approved the job so far, within two days the new concrete was poured and the job was complete. The last day when the forms were removed and final cleanup made, Sal came out himself to make a final inspection and make sure we were happy. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Sal and his crew will definitely be back when we need more concrete or paver work done.
Description of Work: Remove and replace old concrete stoop and sidewalk off the side of garage. Remove 18" wide driveway side extension and replaced with 24" new.

Mr. Catalano and his crew were very polite, efficient and even reset the landscape bricks that had to be moved in order to complete the job. Mr. Catalano was involved every step of the way. During the estimate process he suggested increasing the size of the front stoop to make it easier for me to get in the front door without almost having to step into the dirt. My family as well as my neighbors really liked the work that was done. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Catalano Concrete.
Description of Work: They replaced my front stoop (enlarged it and corrected height for my safety), sidewalk from stoop to driveway, driveway, 2 squares of sidewalk and apron.

Sal came out and gave me an estimate and when I was ready I called back and his office told me what I needed to do (get a permit) and as soon as I had that he called and told me they would be there within a couple of days, which they were. They came and broke up the current sidewalk and patio; came next day and framed it all up and then within a couple of days came and poured the cement. Sal came out himself to supervise and came back the next day to remove all the framing. I was very happy with the work and the service and would definitely recommend - very friendly and professional. They did a great job.
Description of Work: Replaced sidewalk leading up to house and continued into back garden and replaced patio

Grade of A Mr. Catalano came out immediately after the contact from Angies List. We had five companies come out, two never submitted bids; the other two bids one was so low that my neighbor and I thought the quality might be poor and the other was so far over what we thought was fair we completely discounted it. So we went with Mr. Catalano. I did have to go down to the village and get the permit myself in all other work I had done the contractor had purchased it. Once I got the permit we still had to wait nearly two weeks but this was not Mr. Catalano's fault it rained too much he got behind. Once he got going his crew did a terrific job. They came back the following day and took out the frames and put all the dirt back which they had removed. I would recommend him in the future to anyone who is looking to have concrete done.
Description of Work: My neighbor and I shared the expense of a new stoop ($1,800) and I paid for a new sidewalk to run the length of my property down to the connecting village sidewalk, which was $1,600.

He was honest and reliable. I was very happy with his price. He did a beautiful job. Our friends who used him have been pretty satisfied. It is holding up fine. I recommend him very highly. He is honest and friendly. He kept his appointments.
Description of Work: Mr Catalano came out and he was very helpful. He was replacing broken concrete. The Village told me that we did not need a permit for this work. I did have to provide a survey and show what I was doing. I got an OK. This held things up. He was concerned about following all of the proper laws.

Provided thorough estimate with certificate of liability insurance. Scheduled work timely, working around weather. We had to obtain the building permit, and there is an inspection prior to pour and after pour by the village inspector. Pour went well and they did a very nice job sloping it away from the front porch to keep rain running away from the garage and house. On our concern about pitting / rock pops - advised always a problem in Chgo area weather with freeze/thaw but important to keep all salt products off the driveway, esp in first year. As of April, 2009, driveway looks good with only minor pitting / rock pops at top of driveway nearest the garage where ice/snow mixed with road salt and debris collected and on apron where street salt from plows.
Description of Work: Remove asphalt driveway 29'x 19'and apron and replace with concrete. Finish with California Edge. Driveway is L-shaped to the attached garage that is in the front of our bi-level house and just to the right of the front entrance. Work was done 9/27/08.
