They did an amazing concrete job, they stamped over 18 yards of colored concrete with a roman slate stamp and were thousands cheaper than other bids, but don't let there good pricing fool you they are top notch in what they do and I would hire them a thousand times over again, Villi the owner is amazing........ read more

Overall I'm okay with how everything turned out, but the 3-star is representative of the additional unexpected costs and lack of attention to detail. Like others stated, Justin and his partner Brandon are really nice guys - Justin handles the business side and Brandon was essentially the project manager. There were a few design changes during this process. The most prominent change being the material we had to use to obtain the necessary permit from City of Poway. We downgraded from a premium modern block to a split-face CMU block and ultimately cost us an additional $14K. I realized later I had similar quotes for the CMU block retaining wall for $13K less than I was charged for this aspect of the project. In regards to the lack of attention to detail, I had two issues. (1) When we pivoted to the split face CMU block, Brandon told me to send him the color I wanted. I sent him the specific details to a light gray CMU block that matched the more modern aesthetic of our backyard. What was ultimately ordered and installed was a natural gray (tan). (2) It's expected the split face CMU has inconsistencies, however the crew that installed it used a block that had a giant divot and placed another that had a giant bulge, even though there was a decent amount of material leftover. I chose Pacific Concrete because they were referred by my pool company, but looking back I would have approached this much differently. I wouldn't discourage OR recommend anyone work with them. I just recommend to do your homework. read more

I recently contracted Pacific Concrete to build the concrete decking around our new pool, which was in the process of being built. Our pool company referred us to PC and after getting a couple of other quotes, I ultimately decided to go with PC because their professionalism and the fact that they'd worked with our pool company on multiple jobs. They finished our decking a couple of weeks ago and I'm beyond pleased with the results. The quote and sales process, which was handled by Justin, was timely, professional, and thorough. Justin listened to what we wanted in terms of design and aesthetic, gave us a few options in terms of color and finish, and had a solution to some of the more tricky issues we had to deal with (such as eliminating a sump pump and replacing it with a French drain). The construction process was also handled professionally and as timely as possible. The crew lost several weeks of work time due to the crazy rains in San Diego in February & March, but Brandon, Juan, and the rest of the team was there to work and get as much done as they could on the days the weather cooperated. A few other things stand out from my experience with PC. During the construction phase and prior to the pour, I wanted to make sure the areas that were free of concrete weren't land-locked in terms of having water and electrical sources for future irrigation and landscape lighting. A five min conversation with Brandon led to them adding conduit and irrigation tubes and re-routing some of the water sources in our backyard to make sure we were covered. There was a minimal charge, but I really appreciated Brandon listening to my request and working with me to find a solution. Also, special shout to the detail that went into capping off a few steps in our layout to match the pool coping/finish (see photos). Overall I'm super pleased with the end result and experience working with Pacific Concrete. I've already asked them to come back and give a quote for phase II of our project to demo the existing fence and put in a retaining wall. Look forward to working with them again soon. read more

This review is LONG overdue. Summer 2020 we reached out to Pacific Concrete for a bid on TURF & CONCRETE in our new backyard (our yard was 100% dirt at the time). Our yard is sloped towards the house so we also were in need of some type of drainage to prevent flooding and foundation issues. Brandon was the first/only person to bid our yard who had a viable solution for this problem. Beyond that, he and his team were knowledgeable, worked quickly and efficiently, and did a great job! It's been about a year since everything was completed and it still looks great and has withstood the ultimate test (2 large dobermans who run, trample, wrestle, roll and more all over this turf)! We could not be more happy with the work Pacific Concrete did and will definitely be using them for any future needs we have. read more

I needed to extend my driveway, add a walkway and a sitting area along with two walls. I had several different quotes, but the guys at Pacific Concrete were the most responsive. Brandon had an open line of communication during the entire project. The workers were very quick, thorough and cleaned up every day. If you need any concrete work or hard scape give Pacific Concrete a call, you will not be disappointed. read more

It took me a while to review as I waited about a month for the concrete to settle and I must say that we are very happy with how the retaining wall and concrete turned out. I have hired other contractors in the past and these guys were very professional and took care of the work as promised. Additionally, they added a new wooden post to the outside fence, as the old wood was apparently rotten. They always responded when we had questions and was able to completely remove the metal fence. Everything was cleaned up after the work was done, which was appreciated. This is our first time using them and will definitely recommend to others. read more

Contacted Pacific Concrete during April 2021 after reading their very positive reviews on Yelp. Brandon, the owner, responded the next day to set up an appointment. Other contractors did not respond to my calls. Brandon was on time and very professional and knowledgeable. Even though my drive way job was relatively small, 460 sq feet, he approached it as if it was his most important contract. In addition to the concrete, I had about 150 LF of pavers placed between the poured slabs and in the existing joints of the original drive way. His subcontractor concrete cutter was superb. Brandon was extremely helpful in selecting the pavers and sent his crew to the manufactures location to pick them up. The pour site is not easily accessible, but Pacific's pumper crew and concrete truck made it look easy and all went very smoothly. I am extremely pleased with the completed project. His office manager, Becky, was always responsive to my calls and sent me the contract immediately. Kuddos to her for her role in my job!!! The overall price was very reasonable and a discount is given for cash payments!!! I highly recommend Pacific Concrete. They were very responsive to my schedule change requests, always on time and Brandon notified me of the scheduling of each phase of the work. You are making the right decision with choosing Pacific Concrete for you next concrete project. Mike P. La Mesa Ca read more

Our experience with Pacific Concrete was outstanding. I worked with Brandon, one of the partners, and he was kind, knowledgeable, flexible and worked with us well to plan the scope of the job. Estimate came back quickly and professionally and was a very fair price for the work. HIs crew is hardworking and respectful of the property, as well as rather nice (Alex, Gonzalo, Jorge). Many thanks! I highly recommend Pacific Concrete for any concrete needs you may have. The work they did for us was high quality and done in a quick and professional manner. Their rating here is well earned. read more

I worked directly with Pacific Concrete over a few months while completing my backyard. (Attached pictures). They rebuilt the concrete wall, poured around the pool and patio and so much more!! I love their work. You are not working with a huge company but a small local company. Brandon and Justin (the owners) and their crew are amazing. I remember them siting at the bottom of the driveway waiting for the sun to rise, just so they can start working on my project. They are extremely professional and a pleasure to work with. They respect your property and listen to opinions. I would highly recommend working with them. They are a pleasure. The owners are in constant contact with you. I asked them for a few "favors" not part of the project, and without hesitation they helped. read more

Spectacular!! We had Pacific Concrete come out to redo our backyard, we wanted to add some more drainage as well as turf. I called and spoke to Becky to set up a consultation and Brandon came out and gave us a great quote. He even recommended a great screen company (Torpin Screen Comapny) to come out to place screens on our windows so the sun wouldn't harm the turf. The guys that came and did the drainage, as well as the team that came and installed the turf, were awesome! Such hardworking guys that really take pride in their work. They even hid the drainage spots under the turf which is awesome because I don't have to worry about my dogs catching their paws on it or anything. Really we did this for them, and let's just say that they are VERY happy! 10/10 highly recommend Pacific Concrete! read more

Professional, friendly & a great job done! From the initial quote to finishing the job it was smooth sailing. Communication was easy! The guys that worked on our place were friendly and hardworking! We had them install new white rock for us as well as build a back fence. In the front they extended our driveway, made a new walkway, new planter and the concrete steps from the street. We love it and are already having them give us another quote for more upgrades to our home! Go with them, you'll be glad you did! read more

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Brandon.

Justin and his Pacific Concrete crew proved to be the right choice for us. Down to earth interactions, easy to schedule, knowledgeable answers to all our questions and on time for all appointments and work days. We had a 88"x88" slab poured in our yard for a hot tub platform. They also helped clear the area around the slab and dug trenches for electrical. They made it look easy. The entire crew on site were professional, respectful and polite, always available to share and answer our questions thoughout the day. We will have no problem checking with Justin first for any similar projects in the future. Thanks everyone! read more

We worked with Brandon on a backyard remodel this past winter when he was with another company. He's since moved to full time at Pacific Concrete, and we chose them for our front yard project after having such a great experience with him on the back. He's a really quick and clear communicator and I felt really confident he understood our vision. We did get another quote and he was competitively priced and able to show us the differences so we could understand and be sure to get everything exactly as we wanted it. Aside from Brandon as the project lead, the on-site teams for both concrete pour & turf install were professional, friendly and easy to review details with onsite. Santiago & Pasqual are the best! Past that, I think the pictures speak for themselves! Highly recommend Pacific Concrete. read more

Highly recommend! Brandon and his team are very responsive and did great work. We had our driveway redone with stamped concrete (previously was small pavers). We also had a retaining wall put in where we previously had railroad ties. They did excellent work and were flexible when I had changes or concerns. I simply cannot say as many good things as they deserve. This company works hard and puts their customers first. This was a big project (for us) and we have zero regrets. No buyers remorse. We only have love for our new driveway and retaining wall. Thank you Pacific Concrete! read more

Just hired Pacific Concrete to demo and replace stairs at a home in Sherman Heights. Brandon gave us ideas to configure the steps and landing, as well as repair and stucco over a block wall. They even added a saw cut for a channel drain in the back yard. They accomplished the job as promised, and it came out looking even better than expected. And here's the kicker...because we were out of town, the other owner Justin, stopped by to water down the work they just did to ensure the curing process continued properly. Would hire this company again in a heartbeat. Well done! read more

Justin and crew are 100% pros. Everything they did was as promised and on time. We had multiple of concrete companies come and look at our yard without much follow up. Justin came out within a day or two of our initial call and had a proposal in my inbox a day or two later as he promised. Hire these guys today you will not be disappointed. read more

I write this review, honestly with a heavy heart. As PACIFIC CONCRETES customer service was great, and the man in charge , JUSTIN, couldn't have been nicer..... right up until the end. Unfortunately, the workmanship and professionalism of his crew fell considerably short. Justin was great communicator and very friendly. My neighbors were using PACIFIC CONCRETE as well and as a result, they were my only bid. (Admittedly my bad) My journey with this company started in beginning March 2020. Right at the beginning of COVID. This is why its taken so long for me to put this review. I wanted to give JUSTIN and PACIFIC CONCRETE the benefit of the doubt and plenty of time to fix their mistakes as Justin and his crew had the best of intentions. First, the concrete was poured just days after the rains in March, while the soil was still very wet. I was led to believe this would not affect the process. As a result, the concrete appeared very discolored, had numerous small quarter sized indentations and had a very uneven appearance. Additionally, the day they poured the concrete the crew rolled my trash cans over the freshly poured concrete to get into my back yard. As a result, wheel marks were set in the concrete. JUSTIN assured me given time, the discoloration in the concrete and the wheel marks would disappear. Accordingly, I waited until Mid June. As time passed and June approached most of the wheel marks were still present in the concrete; the discoloration and the uneven dried appearance were still very apparent. From when the job was completed in March to Mid-June, I updated Justin with pictures. He was very good with communication and agreed the appearance was unacceptable. In Mid-June, Justin and his co-worker evaluated the concrete in person and agreed they had made a mistake and the appearance was unacceptable. To my surprise, they also agreed to remedy it. To their credit they gave me an option of redoing the concrete or putting a coating on the concrete to correct the appearance and indentations. Being assured me the concrete was perfectly stable, some personal circumstances and the fact Justin had been so accommodating, my wife and I decided on the coating option. That was our mistake. The coating was placed approximately at the beginning of July, without the small dents being fixed as we had agreed. By the end of August the coating was was chipping in numerous places and the tiny indentations were getting bigger. From that point on JUSTIN as been missing. I've attempted to contact him by phone from Mid September to November 1st many times with all attempts being ignored. This is my fist yelp review as I typically move on from any bad experience with a business by not giving said business any more patronage. I complete this review because getting concrete poured is a complicated and very expensive endeavor and I don't want people to make the same mistake I did. I went with PACIFIC CONCRETE because JUSTIN was such an awesome person to deal with. PACIFIC CONCRETES final product, their craftsmanship as a business is not quality. Pictures on social media are taken immediately after a job. Ask to see pictures of completed jobs after some passage of time. Make sure their work is up to your standards. I made a this important decision based on personal feelings rather than treating it like business. I know that's my mistake. Finally, I would recommend JUSTIN to work for my business as he'd been a great person to deal with for the most part, which is why this is a two star review instead of a no star review. I just wouldn't recommend PACFIC CONCRETE for any concrete needs. Everyone has different experiences with companies. My neighbor and I didn't have a good experience with PACIFIC CONCRETE. BE CAREFUL and don't be fooled by the personality. Be certain of their ability to deliver a quality job before going with them. Because, if I had to do it over again, I would make a different choice. read more

Here's the most important part of this review to me: Pacific concrete was the ONLY contractor in our extensive yard reno that got it right the first time. And my wife and I are admittedly very picky people. Brandon was referred to us by the general contractor for our turf installation. He came out and got us a quote within 24 hours, with a lower price than two other contractors. He was also able to find the specific color that was required by our HOA for the concrete which was awesome. He was nice, a good listener, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Very responsive. The workers that came were quick, courteous, and cleaned up after themselves. And look at that walkway, it's sweet! read more

This is my second project using Pacific Concrete, and yet again they went above and beyond and did an amazing job on my front yard. They built a wall to help with the erosion issues i was having from all of the rain this year. They even tied my wall into the neighbors existing wall and made sure everything flowed perfectly and matched up correctly. Not only that but they came and knocked out the job in literally just a couple of hours! Fast, professional and top quality work I highly recommend Pacific Concrete to anybody wanting their projects done the right way. read more

Brandon, Pasqual and the Pacific Concrete team did a FLAWLESS job removing our home's 60 year old concrete and replacing it with brand new concrete. The team came bright and early, ready to work and completed the project with attention to every detail. They made sure to grade the concrete so it sloped ever so slightly away from the foundation, the joints were perfectly equal, and they even made sure to clean up the concrete debris that surrounded the yard after they were done. AMAZING job. Do yourself a favor and make sure you are consulting them for your concrete project! Thank you Pacific Concrete! read more

Honestly, five stars isn't remotely enough to rate Brandon, Justin AND their entire Pacific Concrete team. We met them in the middle of a large remodel of our backyard when the original contractor decided they couldn't actually do the complex work for which we had contracted them. Justin and Brandon stepped in and we are GRATEFUL for their artisan skills, their sense of customer service, their neatness and their constant willingness to make sure we were happy. As a property owner for more than 40 years, I have had the chance to work with many contractors, subs, etc. I have come to judge most of them not by how the crews work when the boss is around, but how they work when he or she isn't. ALL the employees of Pacific Concrete have a shared work ethic that speaks both to sound hiring practices and especially to GREAT BUSINESS LEADERSHIP. Brandon, who oversaw our project was in contact with us every day -often Saturday and Sunday- with updates and to advise on next steps. We have never felt better-informed by a contractor. Even weeks after their work completed, Pacific Concrete has been stopping by to make small touch-ups and to ensure our satisfaction. If you are interviewing contractors for any of the specialty areas listed by Pacific Concrete, you should now stop. If you care about attention to detail you've found the best company in San Diego County. Hire them without any reservations and prepare to be thoroughly impressed. read more

Pacific concrete recently redid both our back and front yards, and we are very pleased with the result. The project required demo of existing concrete/brick patio, removal of trees/plants, pouring new concrete, and installing new astroturf. We got bids from 5+ companies, and Pacific Concrete was the most reasonable with the highest quality. Brandon is great to work with and very responsive. They're fair and always willing to have a conversation with you. We went from never spending time outside to spending hours together in our backyard. The quality of the work leaves us with no doubt that it will last for many years. We definitely recommend Pacific Concrete. read more

Brandon and the team just finished a big project in our backyard. Throughout the process I was impressed with how well the team communicated, how much work they accomplished each day, and how good the work was that they did. Pacific's bid was the lowest but the service was top notch. They kept a big unwieldy project on schedule and on budget and when we had little issues or questions they always responded quickly and made sure we were happy. Everyone on the team was friendly, respectful, and great at communicating. read more

Pacific Concrete did a 55 foot concrete walkway / drain, as well as a long concrete surface drain on top of a recently built retaining wall. This project was done under a permit with La Mesa and both parts were required by the city and inspected through the process. Brandon was very helpful and great at communicating throughout the job. His crew were quick, clean and very skilled. This was a very difficult job because it was in a tight area between a retaining wall and my house. They made sure to communicate any questions as they came up to ensure it ended up exactly how I wanted it. I tested the drainage on both afterwards and it was perfect, keeping water away from my house and the footing of the wall, while still being a comfortable surface to walk on. The city inspectors were very happy with the work and commented how good it looked. This team also helped us in some of the more important parts of the retaining wall process and Brandon was very knowledgeable and willing to help. Overall this experience was above my expectations and I would recommend Pacific Concrete for any job you are looking at tackling. read more

Poor review is based on the lack of follow up received. They came to our place a couple weeks ago to check out our front and side yard. They were friendly and did measurements and told me they would email me with a plan and estimate. Provided them with an email and after a few days of not hearing back followed up and ask about the estimate and I was told via text that it would be emailed to me that evening. That was a week ago and have not received an email. I decided not to follow up because I find it unprofessional to leave a client hanging with their lack of communication.Seems like they have great reviews from customers that have actually received an estimate, unfortunately I am not one of them. read more

It's an absolute pleasure to pen this extremely favorable review of Pacific Concrete. As a result of having suffered several unfortunate and costly disappointments along the course of our construction project we were particularly wary in choosing a concrete and design firm. Justin and Brandon were absolutely wonderful to work with. The hardscaping, retaining walls and walkways all came out beautifully. Each and every person we dealt with from the design phase to the physical construction were genuinely nice, honest, hard working, meticulous, clean, safe and talented. The construction was completed on time and within our designated budget. We were particularly impressed with Pacific Concrete's professionalism, helping us sort out several challenging aspects of the design. Always being available for questions both in person and by phone meant so much to us. They really went out of their way to help. It was a very refreshing experience and we would wholeheartedly and without reservation recommend Pacific Concrete. read more
