Upmost Cement Co.

If I had it to do over again, I would not use them. Problems included: - Workers showing up without the tools needed to complete the job. (ex. tape measure to lay out forms, drill to remove forms). - Workers not showing up when they say they will. - Workers not following instructions (ex. do not drive on neighbor's property) and leaving huge ruts in their yard. - Ignoring instructions verbally provided to them by the building inspector and skipping an inspection. (ex. compaction inspection). They have you handle the inspections to avoid responsibility. - Showing up after completion of the job and driving their truck on our property without any notification. - Notified of cracks starting to appear outside of the control joints and they blamed it on the ground, when it is their job to create a suitable foundation/base. - Dumping a large collection of mud from the trenches in a spot where it ran into the neighbor's yard damaging it. - Concrete pad being 3 inches out of level, requiring additional work and cost when my building was installed. - Communication, organization and planning are generally poor. - Final cost was $8k over the quote I signed. I could keep going but I think you get the point.

On 9/23/24, Andrew from Upmost came to my home to provide a quote to have a rear paver/concrete walkway replaced with all cement. Next spring, I plan to rebuild my front porch, front walkway and sections of the City owned sideway (as they are taking years to get to it). Andrews was very pleasant and provided a solid quote; in-line with Angi's estimate for my zip code. After reaching out to Andrew to accept the quote, the cost increased by $800. An overlooked or forgotten something?? Andrew and I talked and he was going to speak with boss to see what could be done. That conversation was about a week ago with no follow-up from Andrew. I was disappointed, until I reminded myself that all is in divine order!

Great work by Upmost Cement on my new home construction. They installed a concrete pathway and slab with remarkable results. Their punctuality in scheduling and completion truly stood out. Highly recommend for top-quality service and craftsmanship.

Jay was very professional. Jaheim provided a quote for my cement driveway. And Jay even followed up with me on his competitive quote.

Was told beforehand driveway will be done in 2 days. More than 4 months later, they still have not finished. Jay and Nick keep saying every week they will come finish up, but they never do. I'm still waiting now. Learn from my experience and find a more dependable business.

Amazing company to work with! Nick was extremely diligent on keeping contact with me and answering any questions I had about the job. The crew showed up on time, were very courteous to my property surrounding my driveway, cleaned up beautifully, and did a wonderful job overall. Would highly recommend! I will be using upmost for all my concrete work in the future.

It was late in the seasoning we had sticker shock from other bids we had. Contractors were suggesting we wait until spring. Upmost called back and said they could fit us in and to boot offered substantial saving from what we had seen. We finished the contract on Friday after getting the details specified. The proposed to start on Tuesday. They called Monday and asked whether they could get started early with the prep work. We said sure and the old driveway removal group showed up promptly. They worked very effectively and did and additional task for us laying a drain field to divert the roof drainage under the planned new sidewalk to water a new tree. The next day the form building crew went to work. You could see in the detailed measuring that the worker new what he was doing. The accuracy of the layout was confirmed when we tested the drainage with water on the next weekend. The entire surface shed the water well which is a big deal in Michigan otherwise you end up with puddle that become ice in winter. The big show was Thursday when a large and well coordinated did the concrete pour. They worked together, created necessary expansion joints, and detailed the surface. They also did a great job of cleaning up. They kept coming working over the weekend to finish other elements. Resurfacing a porch, cleaning up any splashed cement. By the beginning of the next week they had removed the forms filled in the soil to level and seeded it. We are very happy with the new driveway and sidewalk. They replaced a broken up asphalt drive and very narrow sidewalk. They also added a step from the walk to the porch which will make it a much more comfortable step up for guests and us. Neighbors have already commented on how much it improves the view from the street.

Awesome job. The company did a beautiful job of pouring new sections of my old driveway plus repaired my cement porch. Did great cleanup when done. Nice company to deal with.

Excellent work! Would definitely recommend

I use his service a couple of times. I recommend him to my friends to do their sidewalk and everything. The service was excellent. I wish him well. He did a great job.

It was amazing. Nick was a super nice guy and great. He was really good.

Concrete work was superb, would definitely recommend.
