concrete repair
+ -1 morePoor quality work. Hired to pour a brand new stone aggregate patio, small retaining wall, and drainage. Patio developed MAJOR cracks all throughout within months of installation. Owner said he couldn't understand why it cracked and would not repair but offered to cut out bad sections and install patio paver stones as long as I paid for the additional material & labor. It is also crumbling and falling apart where he made stress cuts (which did not work by the way). The retaining wall is already leaning and needs tore down and rebuilt. Just terrible quality work and craftsmanship. Owner was very polite and friendly but his demeanor changed when problems developed.

concrete repair
+ -1 moreWent well until I had problems. Patio was installed in late fall and had developed numerous major cracks and was breaking up in chunks by Spring. Subpar work and does not stand behind his work. Hire at your own risk.
Description of Work: I hired the owner/Marcello Giallorenzo to install a 30 X 14 stone aggregate patio for $4700 that was installed in the Fall and developed three major cracks running through the entire length of the patio by Spring. The owner came back once and cut additional stress cuts that only made it worse. After advising him of the worsening condition he stated "I can't understand why it cracked like that." Other concrete experts stated the stress cuts were too shallow, and that the concrete was not poured thick enough. There are now chunks coming out of the patio. A complete waste of money. When I spoke to him he offered to cut strips out of my brand new patio and install landscaping stones at considerable additional cost to me. He would not replace with the same material. Very nice until I had a problem then became agitated and unwilling to stand behind his work. Avoid or hire at your own risk.
