Despite the intermittent rain, they worked quickly and efficiently. What was once a hardly used backyard is now a well-designed and highly used patio area where my husband can grill and we can enjoy eating summer meals, relaxing in hammocks, or sitting out on our patio chairs under the shade. I love the work they did. They hired men to clear out not one, but two trees (near power lines nonetheless) without any disruptions. We are happy to be using our backyard nearly every day since the concrete was laid. Thank you for your hard work! We are very happy customers!

I had an appointment for an estimate today between 10:30 - 11:30am for a concrete project at my home in Indiana with Affordable Concrete raising. The experience was profoundly disappointing, extremely unprofessional, and left me questioning the company's respect for people of the black race. When the worker arrived at 11:50am, upon exiting his vehicle, he specifically walked onto my private driveway, looked directly at me--as I was standing in my garage walking towards him to greet him--and proceeded to spit onto my driveway which came across as spitting in my face. I was instantly disguised and offended by such a sickening act. He didn't introduce himself or offer a handshake. When I tried explaining this to a female manager, she became a mocker! Her goal was not to help or try to resolve this situation calming. Instead, she began to wordplay, asking did he speak about race, to defend his disgusting act. She went on intentionally disrespect me by claiming that my religious beliefs were opinions when the Bible says its truth. She was mocking my religion, saying don't throw rocks at a glass house, saying that's a scripture when its not. When she looked up the scripture she said, it says "he who is without sin." She goes on to harass me by bearing false witness lying on me continuing to say that she feels threatened b/c im black, proving she is prejudice also. I asked for a return call from a mgr above her & mockingly said she wld, meaning she's not going to just like she's not going to handle this complaint. He then briefly looked at the job and stated he couldn't do the work. The deliberate act of walking onto private property to spit rather than using the street, coupled with his confrontational demeanor while looking at me, felt deeply disrespectful and discriminatory, like he wanted me to know he didnt want to work with me. If I don't receive a call back by a owner/mgr this co agrees w/prejudice & disrespect. I would not recommend this company to anyone seeking respectful, professional service.

Response: "I guess I can just look at it." We go to the backyard, he stand there and looks. First thing he says is "Do you want stamped?" Not a good sign when the first words out of his mouth are trying to upsell. I told him no, broom finish. He has no tape measure with him to measure the area. He didn't have anything else to say so I asked him how would they reinforce it? How would they slope it? I think this guy was a salesperson who probably never did concrete work. Then I had to bring up the subject of stairs. I work during the day and this guy is wasting my time with his lack of sales skills and knowledge. So then he goes to his car and write up an estimate for $4,400. Congrats, you are the highest bidder! On the estimate form it says something like "Material prices go up in June, labor prices in July". This is to motivate you to sign now. He offers no information about whether or not the company is registered with the village. He wrote on the form "Customer gets permit", something we didn't discuss.

I do not trust Bruno's work and will not hire them again. They tried to skirt out of a contract…read moreand also lied several times. They were under contract to spot tuck-point an entire wall but instead they only did the top of the wall and then claimed that the work was completed. When confronted about the rest of the wall, they repeatedly lied saying they did the entire wall and said that I was seeing shadows. Only after producing photos (I attached a few photos) of gaping holes did they grudgingly get back on the wall to complete the job. They said "ugh, I guess we missed a few spots" Unless you plan on babysitting them throughout the project, I do not recommend them.

They did some spot tuckpoint work at the top of the building but then used a vinegar spray to make it appear they had completed tuckpointing on the areas showing effervescence. The effervescence returned since they had not fixed any cracks in the mortar in those within a few months. We tried to work this out with them, but had to file a complaint with the better business bureau and now considering small claims court against them. I notice a review by Matty C on 8-3-20 that reports the same issue we had with them claiming to have done work and arguing with us despite the evidence of the building looking the exact same before and after.

Since Chris is a lead, he clearly does not care about his behavior or his treatment of his customers. Also, please keep in mind we most certainly would not contact a company to request an hour drive. We live in his local area. We were not the customer using his services out of location.
