SONION CONCRETE

Sonion gave us the lowest estimate of the three concrete firms we asked, and said they could start the work within a day or two. They also seemed popular in the neighborhood. They showed up on time and finished the job in only two days, which was great... But when it rained the following week we discovered low spots: two puddles of standing water on the driveway, and a lake in the middle of the shed slab. Water was almost an inch deep on the shed slab. I called Sonion back to ask about a remedy, and the guy basically said "these things just happen." He told me the two low spots on the driveway were just unavoidable consequences of concrete work, and that my worries about standing water or discoloration were overly nitpicky. About the shed slab: He told me (not during the estimate -- only after the job!) that I shouldn't have planned to build a shed on a concrete slab bigger than itself, and that the only way to fix the giant low spot in the slab would be to destroy and re-pour the slab to the dimensions of the 8.5' X 11' shed. At my expense. He claimed I hadn't said the shed would be smaller than the slab (I had, repeatedly). He was "kind" enough to offer a discount, if I chose to pay them to fix their mistake. After looking around the Internet for other solutions, I called them and left two messages asking about "re-leveling" with topping compound. No response. Left three more messages over the next 6 months, asking them to at least come by and remove their sign from our yard. No response. Finally took the sign down myself. Upshot is: these guys are fast and cheap, but don't count on them to pour anything bigger than a sidewalk square. And hope nothing goes wrong, because if it does you'll have to live with it.

An excellent job from start to finish.

Wonderful! Sonion was great to work with. I had a fair estimate the same day that I called the company, a contract the next day, and the work began and ended in the same day after only one week of signing the contract. Chuck was great to work with and was really accommodating. He was on-hand at my house to supervise and answer questions. I would highly, highly, recommend this company.

HE WAS FRIENDLY AND A GENTLEMAN. HE WAS PUNCTUAL, HONEST AND PROFESSIONAL. I THOUGHT THE PRICE WAS REASONABLE. THE QUALITY OF WORK WAS GOOD AND ALL OF THE WORK WAS DONE QUICKLY. IT ALL LOOKS GREAT AND WE ARE HAPPY.
