foundation repair
 + -1 moreWarranties are not real. I had a foundation crack that was repaired by Concrete Prescriptions as a part of the closing on a property. The crack repair failed within the warranty period. I talked to them and setup an appointment to have them look at it. They never showed up and never replied to my repeated texts to setup another appointment. They run away from their warranty work.

 + 0 moreVery difficult to get in contact with him. Made an appointment, missed a day of work and he did not show up, no call, nothing. Eventually we chased him down and he re did the failed repair.
Description of Work: Need him to fix a repair he did a couple of years ago. His work is very expensive but we thought that it would be worth it with his 'ten year warranty'

 + -1 moreThe repair leaked this past January. I have been trying to have them repair their repair since January. I received only one response early on asking to schedule in the first week of February. I responded giving a couple of options but have never heard back and have made several other attempts by phone and emails with no response. I would like to get the repair repaired.
Description of Work: Concrete Prescriptions repaired a crack in our foundation wall that leaked last year. They stated the repair has a 10 year warranty.

Description of Work: My mistake was I didn't express what I wanted the end product would look like and company didn't offer. I assumed it would look the same but leakage would be rectified. I arrived to see stone approx 10'x14' instead of grass. Had I known it was going to change the aesthetics, I would have gone with the other bid. I tried repeatedly to call the course of 10 days and left messages as there was still work needed to complete the project. Also, I had paid him all the money before completion which I know I shouldn't have. He kept justifying it looked better, but it doesn't. I asked my landscaper to begin trying to make the area more appealing and uniformed with the rest. Because the work is guaranteed I will not change his work. He did complete the project and the foundation doesn't leak. Beware, he was rude, condescending, and unprofessional with how he spoke with me but only after he got the job. Even other contractors who work with or for me said he was very out of line.

basement waterproofing, foundation repair
 + 0 moreQuote process was fast and easy. Scheduled and completed job within about three weeks. Our basement took on water whenever it rained and there was always standing water underneath bulkhead stairs. The crew added sump pump and repaired foundation to minimize water. While the basement is not 100% dry, it is about 95% drier than it was and there is no longer standing water in bulkhead. We were taking a bucket a water a day (or more) from de-humidifier and that has gone down by at least half, even in very muggy weather. The crew was several hours late. Still able to get most of work done in 8 hours, with an hour follow-up the next day.

foundation repair
 + -1 moreIt was awful. They did a very good job on the crack itself. However, they made a mess that they didn't clean up. They claimed to have a 10-year guarantee, yet couldn't provide any documentation as to it. They got sort of rude with me over asking for the guarantee. They eventually gave me a receipt that mentioned the guarantee at the bottom. They smoke in their truck, and they brought their smell into my home. I run a daycare out of my home, and some of the parents complained about the smell. They drilled a hole into an adjoining room, which they didn't mention or clean up afterward. They also got very upset with me when I communicated all of these things to them. They also got upset when I called the home inspector who had recommended them to me, because he came out to look at the work and said he would no longer recommend them. I emailed them, offering them opportunities to make it right, but the decided not to cooperate. At least my crack is fixed.
Description of Work: They repaired a small crack in my foundation.

 + 1 moreThe result is a clean dry basement for the first time in years. We are delighted with the work. Because of a conflict with a prior bid with another place, our work was rescheduled much later.. in October. However when they arrived they worked well and rapidly and finished by the rescheduled time. We were very pleased with the work and cleanup.
Description of Work: We had a basement which flooded frequently. In addition, we were getting mildew down there. They removed my washer and dryer, dug up the concrete floor, removed and replaced the cellar pump, sprayed the walls etc with some mildew spray.. put gravel and a vapor barrier, replaced the concrete and sheeted the walls.

My wife got home 45 minutes after our appointment and David had waited, very nice, it saved me having to reschedule. The estimate was more than we thought, but we wanted the work done so we went ahead. The work was completed as described, very professional. We would recommend his services to anyone.
Description of Work: filled 3 cracks in foundation walls and patched a crack and a flaking area on the garage floor.

He gave us a very reasonable quote and subsequently did the job with professionalism and good humor.

 + 0 moreI called Concrete Prescriptions after seeing their reviews on Angie's List. David Dalessandri returned my call, and was able to stop by to provide an estimate on the same day. He provided an estimate on the spot, and I scheduled the work for the following week. The crew from Concrete Prescriptions arrived on time and went right to work. They had to cut out a small portion of the garage floor, put down a new base, and pour cement. The original plan was to also reconstruct the front lip of the garage floor, but once they got to work, the crew determined that that step was not necessary. I discussed this change with Mr. Dalessandri, and he agreed to reduce the price, since his crew was not doing as much work as originally planned. After the cement finished setting, Mr. Dalessandri came by and smoothed out the surface. Overall, I was very happy with the process and the results.
Description of Work: Repaired chipped and cracked cement on the floor at the entrance to my garage.

 + 1 moreDave came for an estimate and assessment of our issues. We needed to call when he did not arrive on time for the estimate, but then was at our house within a few minutes of the phone call. We were impressed with his knowledge and manner (not a pushy sales person) and his prescription for our issue. After discussing his assessment with others, and believing we had a very fair price and a good solution, we hired him. He arrived for the work on time with a helper. He was very hands on with the helper, supervising constantly, teaching and watching. The job was done in a morning and was done in an excellent manner. We were very happy with the end product and it has now been about 12 weeks and the gutter appears to be doing the job intended.
Description of Work: Had ground erosion forming deep rutting from rain runoff in the sloped hill down the side of our house. There is no gutter on that side of the house. Dave, from Concrete Prescriptions, came to diagnose the issue and prescribed a ground gutter. We also had a crack in the side of the foundation that we wanted repaired. He did both. Made a ground gutter by digging a trench down the hill, laid perforated piping, laid a sheeting, covered with rocks. Also repaired crack on inside and outside of foundation by using a sealant.

 + 0 moreOverall the job went well. It took two men about 4 hours from start to finish. Good cleanup afterward. Had to let the concrete set for 24 hours before driving on the floor and let the walls set 5 days before cutting off plastic filler tubes.
Description of Work: Repaired several cracks in walls and floor of cement garage floor. The cracks had become larger with age and needed them stabilized. Dave used form insulation applied through holes drilled into cracks and concrete filler in cleaned out cracks on the floor. Sand was sprinkled over the crack filler to match the original color of the concrete floor. Overall good job which took about 4 hours to complete.

 + -1 moreWell worth the money! They were punctual, polite, worth the money, clean, conscientious (did more coats than they said they would for no additional charge), and were gone in just a few hours. The result was exactly what they said it would be. My basement is noticeably drier, less smelly, and less dusty. I wish all contractors operated this way!
Description of Work: My 90 yr old poured concrete foundation was flaking and crumbling pretty badly (it was damp, but never had standing water). Concrete Prescriptions showed up on time for an estimate, took a look and recommended spraying on a what they called a densifier, which would adhere to the old concrete, hardening it, although it would look the same. The estimate was inexpensive, roughly $500, and they could fit us in to do the work within a few weeks. We hired them, they came when they said they would, and the stuff they sprayed stopped the deterioration completely.
