This owner went out of his way to talk me thru my options and lend me information and help on a job done wrong at my house by another contractor. It was very refreshing talking with a business owner with heart and knowledge that had nothing g to gain from lending me his ear and knowledge. Should I need work in future I will definitely be calling here for the job! Thank you again for your time and kindness. read more

Mathew and his crew were amazing to work with. Mathew listened to what I wanted and explained the process clearly... pros and cons. His crew are top notch and don't cut corners...very easy to work with. On time, perpared to work, understood what needed to be done and took all my considerations into account. No one would touch this project but Mathew made it so easy and it has turned out better than I could have expected. I have been a finish carpenter for 50 years and know high quality workmanship. read more

I was in a bind and made my peace with paying the exorbitant price of 46k. Actually, it was 43k and then I was charged 3k for a drain that took them 20 minutes to install since they placed it in an existing ditch - The owner was in Vegas and just came up with a number without even checking the job. I was at the end of a long pool construction and needed a deck, took the hit. I was promised an experienced crew, grade A work, and they could start right away. Long story short, there were issues right away. But I'm going to focus on the major issue, not the stains, chips, poor finish, crazing, which are brushed aside by the owner. I wanted a keystone wall, but was assured that only a poured wall would look good with the new pool. Immediately it cracked. One big crack, 4 smaller ones. When I showed these images to Agundez his response was "I could try to patch them, but I think they are going to look worse if we try to do that." And I'm sure at some point, there would be the classic excuses - expansive soil and all concrete cracks. But these cracks showed up immediately. It's just bad luck and poor preparation. It is not expansive soil causing this. How about a refund to cover the cost of facing this with stone and a cap? So, I can only recommend you save some money and go elsewhere. The prices are ridiculous for the quality of work and no guarantee. read more

Matt Agundez and his team did an outstanding job of installing our new driveway. His hard-working team was fast, efficient and courteous. We were also impressed that Matt was a constant presence on-site to supervise the work. That speaks volumes about Matt and his company's work ethos. We couldn't be happier with the outcome and would highly recommend Agundez Concrete to anyone looking for quality concrete work. read more

We hired Matthew and his team to do our driveway, which was previously comprised of decomposed granite. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. At our initial meeting he was on time, and had numerous samples of concrete colors. We discussed expectations and the timeline. He told me it would only take three days, and assured me there would be no drama involved in the project. He totally delivered. Everything went exactly as he said, and after only two and a half days we have a beautiful driveway that adds both practical and aesthetic value to our home. I highly recommend Matthew and his team. read more

We tried to get a quote for our driveway and some pathways. I would only get a responses through text messages, they wanted me to go out and measure everything.... which I did reluctantly, and sent over to them but now wish I hadn't wasted my time because they never got back to me again. He wouldn't come out to my residence to actually look at all the work I was trying to have done. Zero effort, oh well by the sound of some reviews they are overpriced anyway. Thanks we'll find someone else. Tim read more

Mr Agundez did contact us and reimbursed us for the gate. It did take longer than expected however we appreciate doing business with him

This company must be very busy because they turned away my business. They did not even give me a reason why. I have a beautiful home and needed to re-do my entry way concrete. read more

This company quoted over $100,000 to rebuild a wall in my yard. I am getting this same exact job done, by a fully licensed contractor, for about $15,000. I have the written quotes to back this up. I think these guys are used to bidding on government contracts where no one really cares about the budget. Definitely shop around before you commit to these people. read more

Please, anyone with any matters regarding concrete work, retaining wall rebuilds, or foundational support; see Matt Agundez as your first person to contact. If his 30 years of experience is not enough to convince you that Matt will get your job done properly, simply talk to the man about your range of work. He will alleviate any worry you might have with your circumstance using his clear and concise explanation/game plan. My experience with Matt was more than I could've imagine as he thoroughly eased my doubts about every variable in the retaining wall of my client's future home. Not only did he help me understand a serious fault in an old retaining wall, overlooked by site engineers, but he instilled confidence in my buyer upon what was NEEDED to be done as a means to ensure and maintain the integrity of the property's foundation. In my line of work as a Realtor and in my own personal home repairs I would not recommend anybody else. Thanks, again Matt! read more

Called to setup a time for an estimate and ask some general questions about availability, pricing, etc. I explained that I knew what I needed for my project (how many yards of concrete, color additive, stamp style, etc.) and let them know I already have the area ready for concrete to be poured (have rebar laid, forms set by professionals, etc.) and asked how many finishers would be needed based upon the total square footage (I'd received multiple quotes already and the general consensus is 6 finishers are need). Most of the quotes I'd received were in the $6,000 range, which covers the cost of concrete (with color additive) for two full truck loads (which will cover roughly 1500 sq ft. of space), 6-7 finishers, stamp rental, and pump fee for big rock concrete. The quote I received from Agundez was $7,500 just for the labor. That doesn't cover the cost of the pump rental, stamp rental, or the concrete. ABSURD prices! I actually laughed out load and said "Yeah no thanks, that's insanely overpriced". The person on the other end seemed offended. Sorry, your prices are offensive. My suggestion - run away and shop around - you can find much better pricing with high quality work elsewhere! UPDATE - As a response to the owner's comment: While I appreciate you trying to save face by claiming to be "superior" in terms of the quality of your workmanship, your costs are far excessive to that of your competitors and customers who do not shop around are really losing in the end. Even if you had 10 finishers working the job (which is extremely excessive) your price would be $750 per finisher. This job requires 6 finishers max, which means you're charging me $1250 per finisher. The average price I've found in San DIego county is $350 per finisher, so you're more than triple (almost 4x) of what your competitors charge. The next highest price I'd found was $400 per finisher. This all leads to me believing that you're price gouging your customers. This job was not just about price, if I was after the cheapest job I would have chosen a different contractor for my job than who I did choose. This was about who I felt I could trust and who was ethical and fair. Your attitude and sense of entitlement when I called was clear by the way you spoke to me and the tone of your voice. This is why you lost this job, and why you will continue to do so if you continue with price gouging potential customers and having a bad attitude. read more

Matt was awesome, great price, awesome crew, really happy with the work.

Came out to look at my job several months ago. I wanted an estimate so I could plan my budget. He says if I'm not ready to pour concrete now, there will be no quote now; call back when ready. So I call back recently, he says he is coming out to do some measuring, but doesn't show up. No phone call, no email, nothing. So I call back a week later; no answer so I leave a message . I say "Hey! Where's my quote?" Nothing. A WEEK LATER So I wrote the above review. Next day Matt calls and says he was having family problems (which we all go through) and wants another chance to bid. He shows up at the scheduled time, does some measuring, and gets me a quote in my email that same evening. Now we've got some customer service! His price is substantially higher than a competing quote; I'm still waiting on a 3rd quote before I make my decision. read more

If you've got a concrete project in San Diego, call Agundez Concrete. They are professional, do fantastic work, and we couldn't be happier with the patio project Matt and his crew recently completed for us. That's the short version. We met with several contractors looking to have what was a neglected pile of dirt behind a retaining wall (garden area) transformed into a usable patio space for our home in Mission Beach. Prior to contacting Agundez concrete, other contractors showed up (still typically late) whenever they felt they had free time and provided estimates by basically eyeballing the space. When we had requested detailed plans of the project for our HOA other contractors balked or provided inadequate project details. When we contacted Matt, he showed up to our home on time, acted professionally, and really took the time to detail out our patio project. He provided great insights about how to get the most out of the patio project and make it look amazing. It's worth noting that our patio project provided several of its own logistical difficulties. However, Matt was always prepared to meet each obstacle and make sure everything happened quickly, on schedule, cleanly, and at all times professionally. They did a great job dealing with our HOA requirements, a general lack of parking in our neighborhood, coordinating with a sprinkler repair specialist, and anything that popped up as the project progressed. The Agundez concrete crew also deserve mention. Gerard and his guys always showed up each morning on time and worked their butts off! Nothing was ever left a mess, the project area was always kept neat and tidy, despite being a pit of dirt to start with. Everyone was always friendly, professional, and like I said they worked their butts off each day and did a fantastic job. Fast forward a couple weeks after our project completion and we are incredibly happy with the level of quality and attention to detail that Agundez Concrete put into our project. We have had neighbors and passers by stop just to tell us how great it looks. The stamping of the concrete gives the project a lot of awesome character and really elevates the appearance. Agundex Concrete did an amazing job with our patio project. They created a patio space for us that not only provides a large usable outdoor space, but adds to the aesthetics of our home. One of the best parts is that, because everything is so well tied in with the rest of the house, the patio looks as if it were part of the original plans for the house. I can't say enough good things about Agundez Concrete. If you have a concrete project in San Diego, you owe it to yourself to give Matt a call. You won't a find a better concrete contractor. read more

After finally coming around to working on the outside of my house, driveway was first. I received 4 estimates for removing my existing driveway, expanding it, and pouring new. I met with Matt, the owner personally for his estimate. Matt was friendly, personable, and had lots of great ideas for my project. His estimate was right in the middle of the four, and very reasonable. I'm glad I went with agundez concrete for this job, I couldn't be happier. Matt and his guys finished my almost 700 square foot driveway (on a slope), in 2 days of hard work. The work is incredible, in fact, I've already had several people stop by the house asking about who completed the job. I've recommended Matt and agundez concrete to all of them. When Matt stopped by the next day to pick up his equipment, I even asked for more business cards to hand out. Again, I couldn't be happier with the quality and craftsmanship of the job. The experience and knowledge shows in their work, and I would recommend them to anyone! read more

We had Matts team come out and takeout our old concrete and tiles about a year ago. We designed our concrete space and they installed it to what we wanted. We wish we could of received more concrete but the price went up later in the process. Other than that they did great work and finished with in the week and we are happy with the work. read more

With so many choices for concrete we are very happy with our choice to use Matt! His crew was on time, worked hard and our stamped concrete is beautiful!!! Matt and his brother even helped us with a leaking hose bib out back and saved us from having to call a plumber. They went above and beyond! We will definitely be using them again when we do our front yard! read more

Agundez Concrete provided exceptional service from beginning to end. I called on Tuesday morning, Matt Agundez arrived for a site visit by 5:00 p.m. on the same day, with a prior courtesy call to let me know he was on the way, and by Thursday afternoon my beautiful project was finished. They safely raised the air conditioning unit to pour concrete under it, saving me hundreds of dollars by not having it removed/replaced. The hard-working crew has my respect for their experience, courtesy and cleanliness. They were respectful of my garden and plants and went above and beyond to please their customer. You truly get what you pay for, and much more with this company. Above all, the finished product is truly a work of art. read more

Matt and his team did an incredible job. Work was quality and completed on time. They definitely know what they're doing and can be trusted to do it right. Worth every penny. read more

HIre this company with complete confidence! Highly professional company does high end concrete and masonry work. No short cuts here . Owner and crew are easy to work with. Matt has great listening skills , and there are NO condescending attitudes here, which is rare. From conception of the job , through completion, my husband and I were impressed ! A pleasure to have on our property for a week. Thank You ! read more

They were not interested since my work was not over 5,000 dollars. Very rude. I call them, they answer kindly but after they knew about the job, it seem like they wanted to hang up read more

Recently had the concrete pad in my back yard removed and re-poured from Agundez Concrete. They did an amazing job. Left a message and received a call the next day. Matt worked with my busy schedule to come out and give me a quote on the work and although it was larger than he expected from my description he gave me a very good quote that was within my budget and we signed the contract the same day. The following day he started demolition and completed over 225 sq ft worth of demo and prep for the next days pour before I returned home from work. The following day they poured and did an amazing job. His crew is very efficient, nice, and prompt. If you need to have concrete work done this is the company you want to hire. His crew in addition to concrete work utilized the heavy equipment to fill in a large dip in the yard that was creating a trip hazard. I will definitely be utilizing them again in the future. read more

Matt and his crew are top shelf. He removed an old and cracked concrete pad and poured a new beautiful patio that my family and I will enjoy for years to come. He bid on a job for us once before and although he wasn't the cheapest, after seeing his crew at work I regret not using Agundez then as well. He even broke up an extra 20ish sq/ft of sidewalk and put in an additional drain that we didn't initially ask for without additional costs. He stuck to the price of his original estimate; which I found refreshing as previous contractors start at price and go up as the work unfolds. Not these guys! Straight-forward, professional, high-quality craftsmen. I would highly recommend using Agundez Concrete! read more

Matt and his team did a great job!!! We hired them to do a driveway and create a courtyard with a lovely patio. I love the work! I love the quality! I love how responsive they were to questions! They were timely and met all deadlines. Every day, they showed up early and worked hard! I honestly have no complaints. On a personal note, my 91 year old mom needed to leave the house for doctor's appointments almost daily. They took such care to get her from the house to the safety of the sidewalk and my car, when everything was torn up and on concrete pour day. Thank you so much, guys! You were so kind and went above and beyond! read more

The owner Matt came to survey the property and the scope of the requested work. He indicated he would call the next day with the estimate amount. It's been over 10 days. No call, no estimate, no follow up. read more

We had a large job and we interviewed many concrete companies. We knew Matt was the right guy - even though he was not the cheapest. He guided us in the right direction and we could not be happier with the result. We are so happy we went with Agundez Concrete. If you need it done right - go with these guys. Matt has a large and talented crew. Happy in Lemon Grove!!! read more

Anything that Matthew can help you with you should make sure he and his business are the ones helping you he is the best person i have ever had do work on my property sadly i have had a lot of bad experiences with most of the work i have had done over the years with various people but not Matthew he is honestly the best and most honest and caring person i have ever had the pleasure to do business with and his work is perfect the crew he had come do the work were also amazing very polite fast and good at what they do my suggestion is that you call Matthew right now for any work you need done that he can help with and again Matthew thank you for everything you did Carol and ryan read more

Matthew was the only contractor out of 6 attempts to actually promptly return my calls or emails, show up, provide a detailed quote, commit to a start and stop date and deliver(all other contractors came from yelp as well - 1 I have to excuse as they informed me that they did not service my area, a second responded back with a text telling me what it would basically cost?!? 1 I heard from after we made our decision, and 3 were ???) . Cannot say if he was the cheapest or most expensive, but he was reasonable for the work being done. I will say he was very professional and courteous throughout the entire process. The project net is: He delivered as committed. The same crew showed up promptly every day (not on and off like I have seen with other contractors). They worked hard with only limited breaks. They were very responsive to all our requests (and there were a few). As a result the job was done quickly and the finished product is great. They had to rebuild part of our large patio, remove concrete, match existing flagstone and grout from a something that was installed 10 years ago. They did it. In the end they power washed the patio area surrounding my replaced section, picked up all the remnants, and left the place looking clean (another thing I have not experienced with allot of contractors). read more

More than 20 years ago, Agundez Concrete did their first job for us--and then we had them do many more, over the next decade, when we owned our house. They did two sets of stairs along the back and side of our house (on a hillside), including a pad to support a deck off of an upstairs room. They tore out a pool deck that was sliding down the hillside, and installed a new one with underground ridges to help it stay in place. They poured a patio, a garden wall, and a patio bar and barbecue station. They built a concrete staircase down a 150' driveway. They always listened to--and understood--what we wanted, and did it for an extremely fair price. They'd be our first call for any more jobs. read more

Filled out an online quote, didn't hear back, then emailed them directly, no response. Finally called and they didn't seem to care since my job wasn't a big one. Got a vague quote. I'll pass. read more

May and his crew were professional and efficient. I'd recommend him to anyone looking to create or replace concrete work on their property. Matt's done work for both me and my father and it was excellent in both cases read more

Called to ask for a quote today. The gruff guy who answered didn't identify as Agundez, so I asked if I had the right place and he said yes: I told him I wanted to get a quote to have my concrete driveway sealed. He said, "We only do concrete, sir" and hung up. Good for business? read more

Agundez Concrete was prompt and courteous. Got the permits from the city. Took the job & completed it right before a holiday.

We hired Agundez Concrete to pour a back porch, a few steps, and a band running around the back yard. The owner, Matt, was always completely professional, and his crew is efficient and skilled. They managed to knock this job out in several days, and the results are fantastic. That this job was bid on, accepted and completed within a week is pretty impressive. During the site prep, If I had concerns about where a form was placed, or when I decided to change the plans a little bit, they accomodated me without any problems. The finish work on the concrete was extremely clean, and exactly what I was after when I was looking for a contractor. read more

I've removed my previous rating on Matt based on the initial conversation I've had with him. Maybe he was having a bad day, but he hung up on me after a mis-understanding of my comment. He called multiple times, close to 10 calls and left messages to apologize and ask me to remove the review, so I did. But, I felt that he needs to be responsible for his clients more and people needs to know who they're dealing with. You can't hang up on potential clients based on certain comments that was mis-interpreted and been rude. That is very un-professional and I can't imagine if there was actual contract signed to do the work. It's o.k not to accept jobs or contracts, but it's something else to been just rude. I hope he will get better and improve. Good luck. read more

Called for a quote and got a speech about a minimum dollar amount. How do I know what it will cost unless I get an estimate. Unbelievable.

Made an appointment and Matt never showed up or called. Wish the one star could be zero.
