Lowell Russell, the owner, was involved in all aspects of the process. He came out to estimate, made sure he understood what I needed and quoted accordingly. He stayed in touch and was good at communicating. We had a couple of changes to the original plan and Lowell understood what we wanted. I would definitely recommend them

Lowell and his crew did an excellent job. He met with me to provide an estimate while I waited. His crew was prompt and efficient. They communicated with me throughout the entire process. We had a garage floor and short driveway removed and replaced. The job took two days. We could not be happier. And they were the lowest bid. Bonus.

Owner Lowell was really nice and informative. His son was rude and made a mess of our driveway as he chose another way of getting the job done without talking to me. His father sincerely apologized and I appreciated that.

They totally trashed our yard during installation. They didn't put plywood down before they drove their Bobcat in our yard and ripped up a large portion of our yard. They cut the hose to our sprinkler system and left it laying in the yard. They removed 25 feet of existing curbing and didn't replace it when they finished. So... after all is said and done, we've had to re-sod a portion on our back yard, replace and reroute the sprinkler system in the back yard and have the curbing replaced - all at our expense. The owner was very rude and condescending when we tried to work with him. I strongly urge you to take your business elsewhere!

Response from Lowell Russell Concrete
I was not or ever have been rude to a customer we did little damage to the yard I had asked for the sprinklers to be turned off the yard was wet when we got there our bobcat has 16” wide tracks it’s made to go over lawns the contract was written for bobcat access I don’t use $2,000.00 dollars of heavy plywood which the bobcat will trash the one sprinkler line ran through the patio I had to be removed the concrete landscape edging was to low it was removed to be raised up later if concrete met to edging elevation water would run to it if the patio was lower to run water away it would be lower than the yard I only contacted Jim and talked and explained everything the him prior to starting it was a week later when I came to collect is when I meet Jim’s wife i just had to listen to her complaints she was unwilling to listen to me when I was leaving I asked Jim to try and explain everything to her I told Jim that I would help level up the edging and reposition the sprinkler head I took money of for the little bit of grass and it wasn’t $6,000.00 it was $5,888.00 I took cost off of that she did say the patio looked beautiful I’m accurate in all that we do I explain the process I wish I could have explained to her also the extra cost of not having bobcat access my machine will easily out dig 40 men that’s different cost

The overall process was very smooth. Lowell is extremely knowledgeable and started with a very informative estimate of all the possibilities he was considering for the project. He has a substantial portfolio of past work to view as well. The timeline was accurate and he was updating us every step of the way if something changed. We happened to be out of town the week of the project but communication was never an issue. The final product was amazing. Everything he outlined for us to expect and see from the finished product was true. The one critique I have is that we were unaware of some of the landscaping issues with the surrounding sod that we now have to fix to make level with the new driveway. It would have been nice to know how much he would have to dig down and change the look of everything surrounding the driveway/walkway
Description of Work: I had an old, cracked concrete driveway and front walkway that needed to be redone.

I did have a lower offer, but I felt the slightly higher price was more than offset by the professionalism and knowledge of LRC, and that I'd end up with a higher quality longer lasting driveway, that was as good as it could possibly be.

After getting 6 bids for this project I hired Lowell Russell. He was the most articulate and knowledgable about how to resolve our water and drainage issues for the driveway, patio and walks. His work is excellent. The crew is highly skilled and hard working. His suggestions for improvement were all well worth the extra $ we had not planned on spending. He provided multiple options to work with our budget and what we were trying to accomplish. His price came in mid range and competitive, with more value added than other bids. This project was done in late fall. As of this spring, our water issues are resolved! I highly recommend Lowell Russell!
Description of Work: Large cement driveway and walk way. Stamped concrete patio and steps.
It went great and we highly recommend Lowell and his crew. The entire process was smooth and super professional from start to finish. Great quality workmanship. We are very happy with the result. Lowell provided ideas for solving our problem,guided us with design questions, presented a detailed proposal at a super competitive price, was easy to reach, and easy to communicate with. His crew was excellent. They worked fast, produced superior quality, and cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day. Full project took 2.5 days of work.
Description of Work: Install new stamped antiqued concrete walkway and patio in backyard to address drainage issues; work included removal of existing concrete walk that created flooding in garage in winter
Lowell and his crew were amazing. they were able to cut and color my concrete to a T of what we wanted. I have already referred everyone to Lowell who looking for a concrete patio.
Description of Work: We wanted a 750 sq ft patio with saw cuts and a stained look to each stone.

We were very disappointed when we returned home after they had finished and found parts of our sprinkler system laying in many places in the front yard and many feet of hose and frayed wires laying on the grass on either side of the driveway. We had to pay the sprinkler company to repair the lines that were under the driveway and will be paying a landscaper to fill in the several inch gaps on either side of the driveway and step. We felt the cleanup could have been much better, but the driveway is good. We know two other people who were pleased with their work, which is why we hired them.
Description of Work: We had our front step and driveway replaced. The work was done well and completed in a timely manner. They added a sleeve under the driveway for the sprinkler system (see comments under "How did it go?")

It went perfect. His crew is one of the most hardworking crew's I have watched. The driveway looks awesome. They showed up on time and ready to work each day. They cleaned up after themselves each day to where you couldn't tell that they had been there other than watching the driveway and walkway progressing. They kept me informed along the way. Lowell helped choose the colors and his vision for appeal and how things will look in the end comes out right on point. While they were one of the most expensive bids I received however they are worth the extra money, the concrete PSI, 2 seal coats and guarantee was not matched by anyone else. I would recommend them to everyone.

We hired them to pour a stamped patio in our backyard. The price was fair. They had a great rating and feedback on Angies List. It looked great for the first 4 months. Before the first freeze it developed a very large fracture/crack that extended for 15 feet. This is a smaller patio so this crack ran the length of the patio. This happened approximately 4-5 months after it was completed. We did not had the first freeze of the year. I called them and they said they would come out in the spring. They came out next spring and placed some flexible silicone ( I think that is what it was made of ) into the crack. I have had to redo the silicone. I'm disappointed that this crack developed less than 6 months after it was completed. I still feel they are a good company but the way this was handled was not something I agree with. I understand concrete can crack, but I've never had any other concrete crack so quickly.

Owner was very responsive, coming to the property a day after I had talked to him. Seemed to know what he was talking about. The bid came in around $1,500 over what I eventually paid another contractor to do the exact same job. His rationale was since the job was small, there would be a minimum.

Lowell and team came out and installed a stamped concrete patio behind our garage in the backyard. Lowell was very friendly, helpful and does high quality work. We're very happy with the results. We have a clump maple with shallow roots, a number of which had to be cut out to install the patio. We were worried about those cracking the patio, but it's been two years now and the patio hasn't cracked at all and still looks great.

It went well.. love the quality of the work, now my driveway is looking better than ever. Scheduling is very flexible with Lowell (he's trying to accommodate my schedule that keeps changing and make me feels the most important client in the world). His crew worked fast and efficient. He explained in detail and he knows his concrete well! Not the best price out there but if you are looking for a quality work, this company is the way to go!!

Very well. The team was professional and gave us expectations of what they'd do and how long it would take. The only issue (while small) was that I didn't have a good sense for when they'd start until right before they came out. I think that may have been due to the weather conditions in the fall, so I'll definitely give them a pass.

Lowell came over promptly to give us a quote. The job included removing the old driveway and existing landscape rocks as well as fixing the garage foundation where the driveway had sunk. It took some time before they were able to complete the job but this was known in advance and not a problem. The crew was able to remove and pour the driveway in less than one day and sealed it shortly afterward. It looks great!
