Good concrete work. Used an existing shared fence for part of the framing for the slab. (Egregious mistake) Left a mess of my sod without laying protective boards. Left chunks of concrete in the yard around the work sight along the fence line. He knows how to lay a slab, but no English skills made it difficult to correct his work while in progress.

Alvarado Concrete's reply

Hi Kerry, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We truly appreciate the opportunity to respond. Prior to beginning the project, we connected with you to review and confirm the original scope of work, which was quoted for a 4” concrete pad. Before work began, you requested a change to an 11” high pad, and we accommodated that request. We also followed up after completion to ensure everything met your expectations. During both conversations, no communication concerns were raised, and we understood that the work aligned with what had been discussed. Regarding the fence, you had asked that the concrete be installed all the way up to the fence line. While we do our best to protect surrounding areas, concrete work is inherently demanding, and as a result, some concrete did come into contact with the fence. We always strive to balance precision with the realities of this type of work and take care to protect our customers’ property as much as possible. We value your feedback and will continue working to improve. If you would like to discuss this further, we would be more than happy to connect.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Concrete pricing varies by project. The internet says we should charge ‘x’ amount per square foot. Most of the time it’s not that simple, although I wish it was. It would definitely make my job a lot easier. The problem with charging ‘x’ amount per square foot is the size of each project. For smaller projects, like patios, it simply does not equal out as far as materials and labor. For each project I first meet with my customer, gather all necessary information, and then I go home, take time to calculate all material, and labor that I will need for that specific job. The total price that I come up with is then specific to that job.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Once you reach out to me through Thumbtack I will receive a notification and respond asap. I usually then follow up with a phone call to schedule a time to come out and meet with you to discuss your project. This will also give us a chance to meet in person. I will meet with you at the project site. During this time I will be measuring and checking project site access. I will be gather as much information as possible to come up with the best possible estimate. After our meeting I will take time to calculate all materials and labor I will need to complete your project. I will then send you the estimate. This is usually done within 24 hours of our meeting depending on the size of your project.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I started out in concrete as a helper. We poured foundations for houses all day long. Sometimes we would pour 3-5 houses a day, all in a row. Sometimes we would pour foundations at 2AM/3AM. Everything else (forms/tying rebar/cleanup) was done by another crew. I became fascinated with concrete, and I wanted to learn everything else. I learned forms, rebar, reading plans, and now it’s my passion. I started my business 2 years ago and I still learn new things every day. I am always open to new ideas.
