Earlier this month I contracted with Michael Heavey to have a trench drain installed in my driveway. I am completely satisfied with the result. In one day a section of my driveway was removed, the trench drain set, new plumbing hookups made to the existing drain, rebar installed and new concrete poured and graded. We also selected a matching color to the existing driveway and the top color mixture was expertly applied. Michael showed up early in the morning to convey to his expert three-man crew what he and I had agreed on during his initial site inspection. I really appreciated the skill that each of his crew had in completing this project. Michael was the only concrete contractor to show an interest in my work and I am grateful that he responded to my request. I would recommend him to anyone needing concrete work in the San Francisco area. Two thumbs up for the price and quality of work. I am now ready to let it rain all winter. Tryg McCoy read more

Mike Heavey and the entire crew, including "Guardian" the dog were so professional and competent. My brother-in-law (a perfectionist, and owner of his own construction company) saw the work these men did and said it was excellent. Thanks, Mike for the catch-basin drain for storm run-off! This crew did thoughtful deeds as well, like placing posts as per our contract, but chopping down the dead tree and removing the stump, and then digging a hole for the next tree, so considerate. The team was cohesive; not a bad egg in the bunch. We are going to miss them when these projects are completed. Everyone in town knew who Mike Heavey was, including my plumber, who said, "Mike Heavey, he knows what he's doing." ​They made what may have been a stressful home improvement project fun; I'm so appreciative. Great communication. Oscar is brilliant. All of the crew are fantastic. Thank you!!! read more

Several years ago Michael replaced the cracked and uneven sidewalk in front of our house. It's held up really well, and we were really pleased with his and his team's professionalism. When it came time to replace our long and sloping driveway, we chose him. We also wanted to add a simple design element to the driveway, and Michael was helpful in selecting what would work with our house. He took the time to explain what the job entailed, the issues that needed to be addressed, and how the work would be scheduled in stages. We were home when a lot of the work was done so we got to see firsthand all the work and expertise that went into this - it's not just pouring concrete. All the workers on the team were skilled, hard-working, and were well managed by a team leader who was always present onsite. Michael checked in regularly and the whole process went like clockwork. The end product is a beautiful new driveway! In terms of working with Michael, he is a very nice man who takes pride in his work. We felt that he cared just as much as us that the work was done well. He's very easy to communicate with, and we really appreciated him patiently talking through the work plan and explaining key elements of construction of our driveway- his experience and expertise really shined through. We highly recommend him and his team. We are already planning another project with him! read more

My husband and I are thrilled we found Michael Heavy Construction. We had a couple of other estimates but we knew right away that we were going to choose Michael as soon as we met him. He was professional from start to finish and he did exactly what he said he would do at the price he quoted - no hidden costs or extra charges. He worked within our budget and exceeded our expectations with regards to efficiency and our tight time frame. And the best part is, our garage looks beautiful!! read more

We requested and received a quote to replace the sidewalk in front of the house. The quote was lower than other contractors. We signed the contract and sent in half of the cost. Various agencies surveyed the area to be replaced to determine where underground utilities were located. Michael Heavey Construction also marked the borders of the area to be replaced, from property line to property line to curb. The only two areas not to be disturbed were the fresh PGE post project replacement. Numerous calls to the office to inquire when the sidewalk replacement would start went unanswered for several month. When the project was finally completed, we were advised that there will be an additional $1000.00 for 'extra work performed per your direction'! The only discussion with the workers were to confirm that only the areas marked off in white paint were to be replaced. It appears that the original company estimator quoted a lesser square footage and now Michael Heavey is wanting us to pay for the correct footage of the work. Does this sound like a SCAM to you? Bait and switch? read more

Had a guy come out to give an estimate and he never called back so we moved on.

OMG!! He is the best! Experienced and reasonable. He looked at the sidewalk and told me what was wrong. Sidewalk/sewer repair. It needed an emergency fix; and he was right on it. Fast and efficient. Great staff. Highly recommended. read more

Heavey and his crew are amazing. We needed a new walkway in front of our SF home and the end result exceeded our expectations. They arrived promptly, worked quickly, and cleaned up after themselves. The finished product absolutely transformed the entrance to our home. I would use them again for any job large or small and recommend them to anyone needing concrete work. read more

Michael and his crew and the work outcome was outstanding! He was responsive, exceeded his commitments, made sure we were always informed and extremely efficient! Overall, Heavey Construction did an outstanding job redoing our front sidewalk and I believe I got an excellent value! read more

Michael Heavey and his crew did a fabulous job on a long section of sidewalk, curb, and gutter. He is a hands-on business owner who personally sees to the details of quality work, customer satisfaction, pedestrian safety and meeting the requirements of work involving City permits. The workers were great too, making the project a pleasure despite the necessary noise and inconvenience. I recommend this contractor for projects where the details matter. read more

Simply stated: Mike Heavey and his team ROCKS!!!! We live in an area where there are lots of critters (and lots of fog), so it's hard to maintain a good front yard area and lawn.They recently did a beautiful job of concrete and stamp in front of our home. They also worked with Broadmoor Landscape to install some fake grass, and it looks amazing! Many of our neighbors have stopped to tell us how much they admire the home improvements and want to know who did it. We are so happy to refer Michael Heavey Construction. One thing that was super impressive was how quickly they did the work - Mike's team was so fast and very courteous. If you are looking to enhance your home's curb appeal, definitely call Mike Heavey! read more

I was able to work directly with Michael to finish paving my front yard. His crew is great. They will knock out any job fast. So be ready and stay out of the way. Michael's pricing is middle of the road. He is honest and will let you know how to make things work in challenging jobs. Office staff is not the most organized, so make sure you check the price quote, contract, keep your records. They tried to collect money twice from me and over charged on a few items. Michael was quick to apologize and fix things. I am sad the concrete has cracked already in a few places, but I don't think that is the companies problem, but living in an area where the ground shakes often. read more

Michael took the time to speak to me about my project and understand our needs. He recommended me to a more cost effective solution that had no benefit to him. Will definitely consider him for future concrete needs. read more

It is a rare occurrence to find a professional contractor who does what they say they are going to do, on time, with reasonable pricing and great results! Highly recommend Michael and team for future projects. If only we could clone him for our painting project! read more

Mike and his team did our driveway and replaced sewer line underneath early this year. We have a very long driveway so couldn't make up our mind on if we want go with pavers, concrete or stamped concrete. Mike was very patient with us while we were going back and forth on our decisions. Eventually we decided to go with plain concrete with brick borders. The end result was simply beautiful. During sewer line replacement, we encountered a very tough inspector but Mike's team managed to turn around things quickly to address inspector's requirements. We highly recommend Mike and his team. read more

We received a notice from the city that we needed to fix our sidewalk. Since we live on a corner, it meant a sizeable amount of work. After speaking with other contractors, I was thrilled to find Michael as he was incredibly professional and reasonable. He and his team did an amazing job! I thought it was going to be a nightmare and he made it the whole thing so easy. If I ever need any concrete work in the future, I would definitely work with Michael Heavey. read more

Michael Heavey Construction replaced the sidewalk in the front of my building. The work was done quickly and to perfection. I was impressed by them coming back later in the day and skimming over the cement to make sure it was smooth and drying properly. Also, they have special rubber netting and post to make sure nobody signs their name on your sidewalk. Work with Tim, he is very professional and has knowledge working with landscaping, and won't push; however, he will give you good advice to make sure your job is complete. read more

I have meant to write a review for Heavey Construction and have really lagged in doing so. Michael took care of an issue with some driveway wings at my house a couple years back and I have to say that he was truly unbelievable in his expertise. I lived in the Bay Area for decades and have had many contractors work on my property. He is easily among the best in the business and if I ever move back to SF, I'd definitely contact Michael if I needed work done. Honestly, he's a lifesaver. read more

Very happy with Mike Heavey and his company. My driveway needed to be replaced and they did an awesome job. It was supposed to take 3 days and they had it done in 2. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing concrete work. read more

If you're looking for a concrete / landscape contractor who is professional, detailed oriented, honest, straight forward, and gets the job done right with no excuses then read the below recommendation. I had an old decrepit gray concrete slab driveway with an uneven and steep grade and a front lawn that had seen better days due to the recent draught. I wanted the driveway to be functional and double as a patio area for entertaining and a place where my kids could play safely in an enclosed space. I wanted my front lawn to be replaced with artificial turf so I no longer had to waste water trying to up-keep my lawn. So I began calling around for estimates for a contractor that could do both. My wife and I wanted stamped & colored concrete for the driveway and artificial turf for the front lawn. I got a few quotes from various contractors who were all comparably priced but not very interested in making any improvements upon my design or upgrades to the property. They only wanted to replace the existing concrete and thrown down some turf and call it a day. They weren't interested in making the space more functional or esthetically pleasing. I decided to call Michael Heavey construction based off of a recommendation made by another family member who had used him some years ago. I had seen his work product and so was comfortable with what the end result would be. Further, my family members had not had any issues with the work that he had done for them and their driveway and patio still looked great. When Mike Heavey personally came to my home to give us an estimate, he was very personable. He made my wife and I feel very comfortable and provided us with numerous ideas regarding design changes, landscaping, grade improvements, drainage system improvements, and the overall look and functionality of the property. Mike asked us what our vision was for the property and made his recommendations based on what we envisioned and how we wanted to use the property both presently and in the future. Mike recommended improving upon not only the driveway, but also the main walkway leading to the front door and the front sidewalk in front of our property. Mike worked with us regarding the overall cost of the project and we came to a mutually acceptable agreement. Mike and his crew completed the project in a timely manner and on budget. They even constructed a play structure for my kids. I can't thank them enough for the professional job that they did and for going above and beyond my expectations. Thank you Mike Heavey & company. read more

We asked them to redo sidewalk around a very busy restaurant in a heavy traffic location. We were pleasantly surprised at the unique solutions they were able to come up with to address protecting and preserving our landscaping and parking lot access. Restaurant had very little disruption and for that we were so grateful. This was a project we didn't plan on and when compliance forced us to do so, Mike and his crew working with us on very tight time frames and compliance requirements. Thank you again we are so pleased with the results. I highly recommend for your project. Please note: due to company regulations we do not give vendor endorsements so we must keep this vague and anonymous. Thanks again for a great job! read more

Michael Heavey is fantastic! We and our neighbor hired him recently to replace our sidewalks. Mike showed up reight away when we called for an estimate, he gave us a good bid, and he started the work promptly. He and his crew have a great work ethic. They arrived first think in the morning and worked efficiently. Mike had to contend with our neighborhood association's arborist (called in to inspect tree roots) who was terribly unresponsive. But he and his staff were persistnet, and handled with situation with tact and humor. The finished product is excellen! i've been pleased to recommend Mike to friends. read more

Michael Heavey Construction does *excellent* work! I initially contacted them because of the positive reviews I saw on Yelp. They did such a good job resurfacing my driveway (and at a competitive price), that I contracted with them to repair the sidewalk as well. However, before we had even set a date for the sidewalk to be done, the city contractors unexpectedly tore up the sidewalk, leaving it impassable and unsafe. I called MHC, and Michael Heavey arranged for one of his crews to secure the area, and to do the paving the very next day. This had not been on his immediate schedule, but he and his crew stepped up and solved the problem, and did a beautiful job in the process. I found the entire organization, from the office staff to the crews to Michael Heavey himself, to be professional, courteous, and very responsive with regard to any questions that I had. I highly recommend Michael Heavey Construction. read more

Minimum of hassle great price!!!! His crew fixed our driveway all in a 24 -hour time period.

I was so impressed with the reviews that I called with a request for a bid for a 4 1/2 x 56 foot sidewalk replacement and left the message with a woman. For three days there was no response. I called again. A lovely woman answered, suggested I take a picture of my site and send it in for a quote by phone. I did that but the email on the website was rejected so I called the phone number on the website. The woman who answered it was incredibly rude. She didn't know why there was a problem. I asked that she just send me an email and I would forward her my informationa and she complained tht I hadn't told her that to begin with. I asked her if she wanted my business and she told me it was up to me. I figure people either value my business or not. These folks don't. read more

Horrible customer service.. DO NOT i repeat DO NOT use this guy. He Didnt want to come to job site so he gave me a bid over the phone. He told me he will email it to me the very next day. Well i called him 5 days later asking for it because he never sent it.. when i called him back, Not only did he not know who i was or what i was talking about he then added a boat load more $ to his estimate with out ever seeing the job site. (Again all via phone). Take this review as you want but let's just say i wouldnt use this guy nor will ever recommend him either. read more

We decided to finally address our uneven garage floor by getting it replaced. We were referred to Mike Heavey by a contractor who replaced a leaky patio and we were not disappointed. From the first point of contact with his office staff, it was nothing but professionalism and courtesy. They were quick in scheduling Mike to come check out the garage and turning around a reasonable estimate. Scheduling the job was also seamless and his team showed up on time and in full force. While digging out the old floor, it was determined that our ancient plumbing needed to be replaced. Mike was able to get that done with only a day's delay before the final concrete pour. His team quickly moved all of our stuff back into our garage when the slab was ready. After the recent storms we are all the more grateful for the excellent job that was done by Mike and his crew. Where once there was flooding even with minor rains, we now have perfect drainage and a nice even garage to drive into everyday. Additionally Mike and his office staff were very helpful in referring us to other professionals for help with our temperamental garage door and other plumbing issues. All around excellent service and a great experience. read more

Having done a year-long remodel on our house, we worked with various construction crews and have to say that Michael Heavey Construction was one of our favorites. For the last part of the remodel, we needed to pour new concrete in front of our entire house and sidewalk. The scope of work included fixing years of bad patch-up concrete jobs, repairing cracked and uprooted sidewalk from a large legacy tree, and smoothing out poorly pitched elevations of our driveway. We live at the top of one of the steepest hills in San Francisco, so this job was full of complexities to work around. We cannot speak highly enough of Mike Heavey and this team. The crew removed all the existing concrete with very little debris or disturbance and poured new cement that now looks pristine. Their work was meticulous, and they took every detail into consideration. They stayed on budget and even finished one day ahead of schedule. We'd highly recommend them. read more

This review is overdue. Last summer, my wife and I were interviewing various contractors to fix concrete on our sidewalk, install pavers and replace our main sewer line. As you can imagine, it was a daunting task interviewing all the different contractors to see who can offer what type of service and trying to see which contractor got along with another type of contractor to get the job done smoothly. Behold! I was so happy to run into Michael Heavey Construction on yelp. My wife and I interviewed Mike and we were pleasantly surprised to hear from Mike that he would be able to take care of our front yard, sewer and cracked (beat up side walk). Basically everything we were looking for. Mike's price was extremely fair and completed the project in a timely fashion. He also came up with a great idea to create a border separating our walk way and driveway. He is honest and straight to the point. If you are looking for concrete, pavers, or sewer work, don't hesitate to contact Heavey construction. You will be happy you did. We were!! read more

Yahoo! I hit the jackpot when Michael answered the phone! Pleasant from the very start! We got a total of 3 estimates for our sidewalk & Mike was right in the middle, but he was the only licensed guy. I knew that I wanted to go with him because I had already been admiring my neighbor's sidewalk which he did. Our sidewalk was cracked by the artificial lawn company & we were trying to get them to take responsibility for the cost, so that took a couple of months of chasing after them. The lawn company also covered up a drain grate that never should've been covered & could have potentially been a mess with our 1st big rain storm. Luckily, the lawn company came out to uncover it before the storm hit, but Mike called me to make sure that it was taken care of. He came out at 7:00 am to meet w/the lawn guys & fought on our side for why it was their responsibility, he coached & encouraged me to make sure that they took care of the cost...and all before I had even signed any contract giving him the job! Any time I texted him, he responded right away. His crew did a quick, efficient, beautiful job!! If you have concrete work to do, you'll be making the right choice by picking Michael Heavey's company! What a truly nice guy! read more
