A&F Concrete did an excellent job installing a 20' sidewalk and a very nice 5x5 foot masonry wall…read more As instructed, San Diego Buff concrete was used for the sidewalk. I was given an excellent variety of bricks/blocks to choose for the wall, and the one I chose was competently installed. I was pleased to note the block I chose would be sourced from RCP in Chula Vista, where I have been a regular customer. The two workers agreed to relocate the existing pavers for my reuse as part of the original job. I really appreciated that. Although I was in no hurry, the job was completed quite expeditiously with the exception of the iron gate, the installation of which was subcontracted (and reviewed separately). The final results please me immensely. A&F solved a major problem, and I recommend the company to all.

Adam Fisher, the owner of the company, came to quote a patio and offered to take off our steps and…read morepour the concrete under them, something that multiple other contractors that came for quotes did not see necessary. In the process, Adam and team broke the stairs immediately, and reassembled them with screws sticking out and chunks broken remains used to "level" the remaining stairs (photos of all work attached.) While on site, Adam asked for "200-300$" outside of the scope of the signed contract for the same work that would have been done with or without the additional request. Through the phone exchanges and emails regarding these issues Adam was arrogant and dismissive, yet also took blame for the stairs and will not resolve the issue. Adam's team poured our concrete before a heavy rain, but failed to redirect a gutter (as it had originally been before construction) from pouring directly onto the concrete causing a water stain from the pooling water on the fresh concrete. Again, when confronted with this issue and asking for a resolution Adam denied blame and said "wait a year". As of 6/11/26 there has been no reply nor efforts made on behalf of this company to repair any personal property damage nor resurface the concrete stain/ finish the job as fully paid for.

They completed a large custom concrete…read moreproject around our entire home, including the outdoor design, and the results exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, Daniel and his team were professional, prompt, and extremely easy to work with. Communication was excellent throughout the entire project--they kept us informed, answered questions quickly, and made sure every detail was handled correctly. It was also great working with a true family business. You could tell they genuinely cared about the quality of their work and took pride in the finished product. That personal touch made the entire experience even better. The quality of their work and attention to detail really stand out. This was a significant project with a lot of custom work, and they delivered exactly what we were looking for. The finished space looks fantastic and completely transformed our outdoor area. If you're looking for a concrete contractor who is reliable, communicates well, and takes pride in delivering high-quality work, I would absolutely recommend Daniel and the Aguis Concrete team.

Daniel kept us updated at every stage while coordinating seamlessly with the framer.

Professional, reliable, and committed to quality highly recommend.

Dean and Robert didn't just do great work. They earned my trust…read more My wife designed the layout and my engineer contributed specifications. What impressed me is that Dean and Robert took both and made them better, using their real knowledge of how concrete works. The control joints are placed right, they put in real drainage with actual drains and grading built throughout, and it looks clean and classy without being overdone. Flatwork around the entire house, driveway, front yard, backyard, both sides, fencing, gates. Did they get everything perfect on the first pass? Almost. What separates them is that when something was off, they owned it completely. No excuses, no pushback, just fixed. They paid attention to details that other contractors I quoted either missed entirely or only caught after I nudged them. Dean caught everything without me saying a word. Every day at the end of their shift they cleaned up and secured the site, even when it wasn't convenient. Robert ran a tight field operation and cared about every detail like his reputation depended on it. I have a young kid at home and that told me everything about who these guys are. I had my own engineer come out and review the work on-site. He looked around and said, unprompted, "You've got a great crew here." Engineers don't hand out compliments. That meant something. These guys come from commercial construction and brought that level of expertise to a residential job without going overkill. I actually spotted their truck at another client's property. Here's my honest take: if my mom needed this much work done and I couldn't be there to check in, I would still trust Dean to make sure she was taken care of. That's the highest thing I can say.

They also installed footing drain (French drain) on the back retaining wall, backfilled with the usual gravel, crushed stone and covered the outside of the walls with installed paneled stone veneer. They also did the initial former structure demolition, debris hauling and the requested earth moving and other necessary small retaining walls reassembly. It sounds like an easy simple job but, believe me, it got complicated quite soon. Along the construction way, I was able to interact with the crew and bounce ideas and corrections which were followed to my customer satisfaction, resulting in more than a very acceptable final product. When the inevitable, beyond his control, the one odd crew helper misbehavior occurred on the job, this contractor immediately corrected it, got on top of the problem and smoothly and quickly we had no more of an issue here. He also facilitated for me the customer to bring my own tile / stone wall-caps products and installer guys, which ended doing a beautiful job we're very proud of. Pricing fair, not inexpensive. Job done acceptable, with your own (the customer) continuous supervision and being able to stop working crew's irreparable mistakes before they happened, however, the final product came out well built and functional as we imagined and expected, we are grateful for that. Thanks again to Shafiaq and SK Concrete for accepting working on our small home project and for including us in their busy commercial and industrial schedule.

This was the best experience I have ever had with a contractor in 28 years of owning my home!…read more Tarantino Masonry did our front patio and it came out spectacular. It is a flagstone patio in which he poured a concrete slab, let it set, then came back and set large pieces of flagstone on top in mortar while considering and making the drainage perfect. Not an easy task and needed an absolute professional and forward and smart thinker about the end project. Art Tarantino saw it all immediately and delivered in spades. I did get several other bids, he was the high end of the other bids, and had a longer wait time, but we are so glad we waited and went with him. His bid was true and we paid the exact estimate (no massive up charge at the end due to....you know the game). Can't recommend Tarantino Masonry enough, it's worth the wait!

When they replaced the fence (between us and our neighbor), they did not put the fence back in its original position, leaving a gap on the ground on our side of the fence which is very ugly. Also they undid/pulled out part of our turf (which they said went over the neighbor's side) - they did not ask for permission or talk to us ahead of time before they did this and changed our hardscape design. They just pulled it out and cut part of it. When they put the turf back, it was so uneven and poorly placed back, like they do not know what they were doing. It was now bumpy and not of the same height as the other side (it was slightly curved downward prior) now it is more flat. We notified our neighbors about this but nothing was done to fix it. This company is very unprofessional and would not recommend.

Highly recommend! That could be the end of this review! But read on to find out why…read more We initially worked with a landscape architect. We liked the ideas the architect offered but not the cost as quoted by the contractor the architect referred us to. So we decided to contract our own specialists - act as our own general contractor. SD Paverscapes was one of three paver contractors we contacted. Luis was quick to respond and listened to our ideas. He provided us with a plan we loved and a price we could handle. The installation crew was absolutely first rate. It was a pleasure to watch craftsmen apply their skills! The result is fabulous! Honestly, it turned out better than we had imagined! As with ALL contractors, you - as the client - need to always be communicating with Luis. We made slight modifications to our original plan as the work progressed, but they all were fine because we were in constant dialog with Luis.

He was extremely responsive during the entire process, great about adding his input and suggestions as needed, and very patient with us as we went back and forth on all the details.

No regrets going with Luis and will not hesitate to reach out to him when we want to start our next big landscaping project. Also a bonus that his estimate was much more reasonable than other companies we contacted.

Top notch masonry contractor. We demo'ed a small 2' x 35' retaining wall that had a pitifully…read moresmall footer poured. MM came in after demo and dug a SUBSTANTIALLY larger footer (this footer will outlive the house, it's a least 3 yards of concrete, over 10,000 lbs). MM built up a replacement block wall, with rebar and filled with concrete, as the original wall was supposed to have but was lacking. They performed all of the work in unfortunately some of the worst outdoor conditions we've seen - schedule wise it just so happened to be a heat wave of temps in the +105 in La Mesa, and would cool off over the weekend only to heat back up again during the week. Banged it out in a couple weeks, responsive to phone calls...wont hesitate to call for next round of masonry work needed.

He gave me a fair and reasonable estimate on the repairs and explained in detail how the repairs would take place. He ended up demoing a 6 foot wall for me and a concrete counter top. He repaired and reinforced a retaining wall and replaced and added fencing that needed to be completed. Mario was there each and every day to explain and answer my questions. His guys were careful during the demo and always made sure the work area was cleaned up. In fact, Mario and his crew did such a good job, I hired him for a second job that involved ripping out part of my concrete patio and repouring to fix a separation in the existing concrete. Mario was so courteous and easy to work with I felt like I knew someone on the inside. If I need anything repaired or created, this is the guy I am going to.

We needed a bunch of old mis-match concrete demolished and new concrete poured in our La Mesa backyard. Estimates ranged from absolutely ridiculous to cheap but the quote delivered by someone you wouldn't want to wash your car. When Adrian Sr and Adrian Jr showed up, I was immediately impressed by their approach to the situation. Knowledgeable and experienced, they walked through our project and pointed out all the things that would need to be done, and all the other things that would make the finished product even better. After I had already had 8 other estimates, I had a good idea of what needed to be done but when Adrian Sr pointed out other little touches I knew he was the guy. So of course would ask if he could do this or that little touch and he said "no problem" and better than that, after I had the estimate, he still didn't add to the price for little things that would make the overall project look better. Ok, so the estimate...I was expecting a price in a particular range because I had so many previous estimates, but wow, was I surprised. Adrian's promised a superior product an amazing price. Did they deliver? They sure did. As promised project, on time, and looks amazing. These guys are hard workers and professionals in every aspect. Communication was amazing and they didn't get upset when we needed to make little changes after slept on our thoughts. I HIGHLY recommend Adrian's for any/all your concrete work. They are by far the best in the SD area!!
