Exterior concrete sidewalk and driveway

Sam from Johnny's Concrete was right on top of getting the work done. His ideas and craftsmanship turned the difficult landscape into a beautiful welcoming design. They offer fair prices and a top quality product.

Front yard walkway and huge back yard patio and stairs

Sam, the company owner and operator, and his crew were very professional . I was very impressed with their work ethic and right from the begining I could tell they knew what they were doing. I trusted Sam with the design completely and let him run wild with it. The results are spectacular! Way beyond everything I could ever imagine. From design for the front and back yard stairs, to shape of front and side walkway, to color and patern combinations, everything turned out perfect. Sam takes lots of pride in his work and he went the extra mile to make everything look the best possible .
Also, the company estimator Remo was very polite and trustworthy and his price was best by far compared with other quotes I got. They did not ask for deposits or partial payments before the work was done and the initial quote was also the final price, although they did lots of extra things than initially quoted.
Thank you very very much for an outstanding job guys!

Re-did front steps with low level porch and driveway with exposed aggraget concrete

Johnny's Concrete help regain my home's curb appeal.When I met Sam from Johnny's Concrete he helped me with the design of my steps and driveway,which honestly I didn't quite see clearly in my head. His ideas and advice were much appreciated.
When the crew showed up they were friendly, fast ,organized and very considerate.They kept the job site,from the street to the neighbours yard clean and tidy.The final job looks AWESOME! The best part of Johnny's Concrete is when the started my job they stayed until it was done. They started and finished this project in 5 days with 3 different pours, with Sam supervising every step of the way. My friends and family love it. One of my friends even commented that the house looks bigger now!!!! Thanks Again Guys.

Driveway + Extension, Sidewalks, Flower Bed, Garden Wall, Patio

Johnny's Concrete did an exceptional job with the concrete work around my house. They efficiently prepped the work site and worked with me every step of the way to lay out job and achieve exactly what I wanted. They were careful with every detail and were meticulous to the end. They were respectful of the property and cleaned up nicely afterwards. I opted to get my entire job sealed after and am very happy with the results. You certainly get what you pay for and receive superior service, during and after finishing.

sidewalk & apron replaced on both sides of villa

I originally gave these guys a good review. However, we had several large cracks really quickly tho cracks are considered normal. Shortly after we had a large break by the garage, a large break across the apron, heaving in the centre which has broken part of the garage floor, due to the steel I guess. Over the course of 2+ years & many phone calls, crickets. They do not honour their warranty. Really sucks, I now have to hire somebody else to fix or rip out all of it. Really disappointed.

Driveway, steps and sidewalk

The crew was quick, clean and very professional. They understood what I needed done and explained how they would do it and added their own valuable suggestions and experience. My job is better than I planned it. I would recommend Johnny's Concrete to anyone

We were happy to help Wendy. The original pre-steps were a deteriorated hazard and the driveway was crumbling. We made some suggestions to align all of the elevations and also create a safer front entrance.

Concrete Patio.

Received an estimate from Ray on Monday and the job was completed on Friday. Sam and his crew were great. Their skill is obvious, but add in polite and respectful too. Sometimes it's the little unexpected things that make the difference.... Replacing the soil around the patio as part of their cleanup was an example of that for me. The best part was they completed the job ahead of schedule and were under budget, thanks to a recommendation by Sam. I highly recommend the team from Johnny's.

concrete patio

What a fiasco! The entire job was slipshod and disastrous. We dealt with the owner. The guy gave off airs of being qualified - claiming to have years of experience, the job proved he clearly wasn't. On top of that cutting obvious corners, not doing the details and reinforcement he assured us he would do. Very disappointed with the guy and his promises, such a frustrating experience.

Sidewalk & Patio

We used Johnny's Concrete to pour an exposed aggregate sidewalk and patio at our new home. We checked the reviews out and they were OK but some of the reviews talked about customers not getting what they asked for because Ramo the estimator who you tell what you want doesn't communicate properly with the field workers doing the job and for that reason we specifically requested to meet with the guys that would actually be doing the work but Ramo told us that all the instructions would be relayed and not to worry. We had told them that we need this sidewalk to be stepped down and flush with our finished grade dirt because our yard was already a very steep grade and we didn't what it to be any steeper, we were told no problem. When it came time to do the job I was unfortunately away on business and I asked that they only do the forms so I could check it all out before they pour the concrete, but again they talked me into letting them go ahead and finish up because they have done hundreds of these and they are experts and they guarantee I will be happy with the work. Well, when I got home my yard was a disaster the crews had boards all over my yard with nails sticking out and garbage like empty yogurt containers, chicken bones, coffee cups and water bottles from they're lunches and even worse they had built my entire sidewalk and patio up out of the ground instead of digging into the ground like I wanted. I called Ramo and his reply to the mess was "ya, it's a construction site what do you expect" and told me to call the site supervisor Sam who is the owner of the company about why they had not done what I had asked. So I call the Sam and big surprise he told me that he was not told about the step down and even if he was he would not have done it that way anyway because it just wouldn't be professional in his opinion. So much for the guarantee I would be happy and since I'm the one that paid over nine thousand dollars for my sidewalk and patio shouldn't I decide what I'm getting? In the end I was given five hundred dollars off and left with a really crappy job, the finishing is also not to good as the sealer has dried uneven and left distinct lines in the patio. Read the reviews and listen to the criticisms as they are spot on and be very careful if dealing with Johnny's Concrete as they are not very professional and will do what ever they want.

Unfortunately we only recently began monitoring our online reviews. We discovered 4 improvement opportunities in the last 6 years that were posted. This does not accurately represent the hundreds of happy clients we have successfully serviced in that time. Until now we have not solicited postings or comments from our many satisfied and happy customers, but that is going to change.

From this point Johnny's Concrete will be committed to documenting all of our online feedback and will publicly reply to all matters brought to this forum to give consumers a properly balanced picture of our commitment to quality service and workmanship.
