I would like to recommend Ivan's Masonry for your outdoor improvement projects if you are looking…read morefor outstanding craftsmanship and value for your money. We hired Ivan's Masonry for two jobs: driveway renovation and a new stairway with walkway. From onset it was a long journey for us figuring out what material we will be comfortable with. Ivan patiently consulted us on every available material: concrete, stamping, coloring, and many styles from different providers of concrete pavers. None really resonated with our vision. After a month of research we ended up selecting clay pavers for their traditional look and lasting quality. The problem was that no contractor in our area would even consider working with clay pavers. Initially Ivan also refused but with some prodding he actually agreed to install clay pavers and did an amazing job. The team would start consistently punctually at 7 am and worked full days. Ivan, the owner, would work on the job 100%, including operating the equipment and setting the pavers. The site was kept reasonably clean and the process was well organized. We love the results. Our house became the model for the street as a first house with pavers. Many people complimented on the improvements and expressed the desire to contract with Ivan's Masonry. We are wising Ivan to prosper in his business, and for you guys - wishing you to choose your masonry contractor wisely. Go Ivan's Masonry!

We can't thank Ricardo and his crew enough for their hard work and dedication. They show up early, communicate effortlessly, and always keep the schedule on track. Ricardo answers every call, stays ahead of problems, and offers advice that's saved us more than once.

His team was professional, efficient, and detail-oriented. Because my garage sits lower than the street, he recommended installing a sump pump instead of a traditional drain, which worked perfectly.

He was on site every day, actively involved in digging, grading, and overseeing the entire process. Drainage was a top priority for me, and Juan made sure everything was done right. His team installed a trench drain and carefully graded the area so water flows exactly where it should. He was always responsive, easy to communicate with, and his pricing was very fair. The project took about a week. Day 1: Digging, adding soil, and grading Day 2: Trench drain installation, more hand grading, soil compacting Day 3: Soil compaction and rebar placement Day 4: Concrete pour On pour day, his crew showed up strong, about 10 people on site by 5:30 AM, even during a heat wave. They worked efficiently to stay ahead of the curing process and used an additive in the concrete to prevent rapid water evaporation, so we didn't need to keep watering it afterward. Three days later, they returned to remove the forms, and Juan personally did a final walkthrough to check for any issues or cracks. He is very detail oriented, and his proposal was clear and straightforward with no surprises at all. He also handles concrete demolition and concrete retaining wall work. If you are looking for someone reliable and skilled, I highly recommend Juan. Juan is the king of concrete!

Roman Concrete did an exceptional job replacing and extending our driveway…read more We truly appreciated the owner, Raul, for his professionalism and patience. He took the time to explain every detail, visited our home twice, and remained flexible when we decided to adjust the extension area. The crew was efficient, friendly, and equipped with impressive machinery. We were particularly struck by the value offered; Roman Concrete was the only company to provide 3500 PSI concrete while maintaining a very competitive price. Their attention to detail was outstanding--from the thorough cleanup to the fact that two team members stayed for four hours just to ensure the concrete dried undisturbed. My husband and I highly recommend Roman Concrete. The final result is beautiful, and we look forward to working with them again in the future.

I hired Apex to help me redo and repave my front driveway. After meeting with over a dozen contractors and driveway/pavement professionals, I ultimately chose Andrew due to his communication skills, fair pricing, and flexibility. Andrew and his crew finished the job in a mere 4 days, and the concrete turned out fantastic! Throughout the entire process, I greatly appreciated how easy it was to communicate my questions directly with Andrew via text and phone. Additionally, the guys were incredibly accommodating towards my specific circumstances -- I had construction working around them on the inside of the home and the Apex crew were tidy, professional, and considerate of those other workers.

We usually do most of our own home repairs, gardening, and DIY projects. One thing we could not do…read moreourselves was replace our circa 1917 old cracked 82 feet long driveway and widen our 7' driveway approach (with a steep angle of approach designed for a model-T) to a new 12' wide City standard driveway approach with less than 8 degrees angle of approach. We would need a licensed contractor who could work within the City of Alhambra's public-right-of-way. We started calling for quotes in early April of 2014 and A.F.R. Masonry, Alex Diaz, gave us our second lowest bid out of 6 bids. Alex was the only contractor who said he would honor his bid longer than 60 days. The City of Alhambra would definitely need more than 60 days to complete the relocation of a water meter that was in the way of a new driveway approach. I liked the fact that Alex said he had his own digger (to break and haul concrete) and he was based locally in El Monte. His bid price was a definite draw (one of our highest bids from another general contractor was more than triple the amount of Alex's). So after the water meter was relocated we called Alex and he said he was available to do our job within two weeks and could complete the job in approximately 6 working days. The job is just finishing up today and I just had to write up this review. I have been waiting a long time to be able to drive into my driveway without hitting my tires on the curb face. The new no frills driveway is so much more pleasant to look at then our old cracked and patched driveway. The only thing that other homeowners might have an issue with would be that during the construction, the job-site (my yard) was left with construction materials overnight. But I am definitely fine with dealing with unsightly construction materials overnight during construction for Alex's bid price. It all gets cleaned-up in the end. The work was done on time and on budget! Alex did not complain about having to deal with the large magnolia tree roots adjacent to the driveway approach. He listened to our concerns and made sure they were addressed. The craftsmanship of the concrete work with proper forms, slopes, and finish was definitely on point. I am very happy with the job well done.
