unreliable. I called last week and spoke with Joe. I scheduled him to come today between 10 -11 but to my surprise, he didn't show up. his excuse was that he can't come earlier and he can't come during that time because he will run into the other vendor who was also coming. when I asked him to come later he said he can't. I then asked if he can come anytime today and he said no. the point is that I was at the house since 8am and he could have texted me and said he can come earlier (later he said that he was free in the morning). I am attached our conversation for your review. read more

We have worked with Rodriguez Concrete twice. The first time was several years ago when they redid our driveway and landing on the side of the house. This first project was managed by our contractor friend. The second project was completed this fall when we rebuilt our front yard retaining wall and walkway in order to fix poor grading. The work was completed in less than 5 days and looks great. We found the company very responsive over text and on the phone. read more

We hired Joe to do our driveway and he did a fantastic job! Arrived right as scheduled, kept us very informed as to how the entire process would work, and continued checking on us after the project was done. Our house looks so much better now! Could not be happier with their professionalism. read more

Very unprofessional. I called the place twice, the first time he told me to call him on Monday to schedule a time with him. When I called him, he said he would call me back in a few minutes, which he never did. Since I really wanted to work with the guy, I called him back on a different day and he said he would show up in an hour to discuss the project and provide an estimate. Unfortunately he never showed up, nor called me back to say he couldn't make it or wasn't interested. read more

I haven't chosen a contractor yet, but I just wanted to say that they came and were very professional. After taking some measurements of my driveway, they wrote up an estimate right there on the spot along with a drawing, which I really appreciated. (Some of the contractors measured my place and after TWO weeks, I have still not received an estimate, even after repeated prodding.) I am leaning toward using these guys! read more

This is a great team. Anthony gave us a quote within a couple of days of calling him (better quote than others we received), Jose and his brother Eddie lead a very organized team through demo the first day, and pour on the second day. That was faster than I expected. They all work well together and clean the site each day. They both had recommendations for various construction projects I have, that don't even include concrete. The new driveway looks great, I'm already planning a second job with them. read more

Joe and his amazing crew tore out our old, cracked concrete and replaced it with beautiful concrete that has the neighbors jealous! Joe replaced our porch, driveway, walkway, back patio and steps. When we had budget and design issues, he was flexible and helped us through the process. We got 3 bids before starting the work. Joe gave us a fair price and offered his expertise in the planning phase. He suggested we add coloring to the concrete to give it an aged look and bands around the driveway and porch for aesthetics. We included his ideas and hired him on the spot. He gave us a start date 2 1/2 weeks out and said it would be a 4-day job. On day 1, Joe showed up with a massive crew! They tore out the old concrete and set all the forms on that first day. Joe and his brother Eddie were on site making sure the job went smoothly. When I came home that afternoon, they had some ideas on the layout and lighting that they shared and we adjusted the plan on the spot. On day 2, all of the concrete was poured by 10am. It was nuts. The neighbors were stopping by to pay compliments and request business cards before lunch. On day 3, Eddie was back with a small crew to put everything in its place and walk the job with me. I'm a pretty picky person, but I couldn't find anything to complain about ;) Our job was finished ahead of schedule and exceeded our expectations!! This project had a couple of issues (what project doesn't?) that came up along the way. I had to keep asking for the contract, but that was mostly for my peace of mind. I found that Joe got defensive when he thought I was asking him to do something outside the scope of the contract. It was more of a communication issue that was easily resolved by calling instead of texting. Joe handled everything in the end. He even dealt with my grouchy neighbor who blamed the Rodriguez crew for breaking his sprinklers- they didn't. The guy has busted sprinklers. We would hire Joe again without hesitation. We already recommended him to our friends and neighbors, so if you want to hire him, you'd better call and get on his schedule!! read more

I am so pleased with all the work done by Rodriguez Concrete. I initially only planned on having some old brick removed from both sides of my driveway and replaced with concrete and I ended up also getting artificial turf installed. I am completely satisfied with both jobs that I hired them to do. From the beginning, when they came out to give me a quote, to the concrete crew and the turf crew, these gentlemen are professionals, hard workers, and have the best customer service! They even helped me with my HOA regulations. I highly recommend Rodriguez Concrete if you are considering concrete work or artificial turf. They are reliable, efficient and got my work done in a timely manner with no inconvenience. I interviewed several concrete companies I found here on Yelp but ultimately, Rodriguez Concrete stood out way above the rest and their completed jobs did not disappoint! I will most definitely be hiring them again for any future concrete work I want done at my home. Thank you Rodriguez Concrete! read more

Rodriguez concrete team did an outstanding work on my front yard circular drive way and city driveway approach. Joe is friendly and maintaining good communication. His team performed with highest professionalism. Thank you Joe and keep up the good work. read more

Second time using Joe and his crew, and again, no regrets. They widened my driveway exactly as requested, and did it in one day. Eddie, Joe's brother, was even able to perfectly match the texture of the existing driveway, as Id asked them to do! They're very clean and neat, leaving very little cleanup for me. I highly recommend them. Mike M, Pasadena ca read more

Joe and team showed up on time and did the job quickly and nicely. Our job was a small area and other contractors would not come out because it wasn't worth it to them. Although busy with other jobs, Joe took on our project. We are very happy with the results and would use them again. read more

Joe and his crew did an amazing job turning my backyard into a driveway. His prices are very competitive. I got quotes from 2 other companies that were charging 5k and 20k more. Joe is very knowledgeable and straightforward and will offer his honest opinion. One advice when working with Joe is be patient, he is a very busy person who have tons of projects and may not get back to you on time. Try to work with his schedule and once you signed the contract and schedule the date you're pretty much set. read more

I live in West Covina and had the pleasure to work with Joe and Rodriguez Concrete. Super nice and straightforward guy. I got lots of quotes, but they were by far the cheapest and quickest. I have a patio in my condo that was not sloped correctly and wanted to have concrete from end to end. Joe was very helpful and squeezed us in knowing it was raining soon. He wanted to make sure this was fixed for us before the rain. He originally said 2 days for the work but they knocked it all out in one run. Right before the rain. It rained today and so far so good. I like how it looks and Rodriguez Concrete was very considerate and accommodating. These are my concrete guys going forward. Thanks Joe! read more

I do not recommend this contractor. I have managed the construction and renovation on my house before. This one is by far the worse. I hired Joe Rodriguez to remove and level my slightly sloped lawn and pour stamped concrete with a pony wall. I've selected him because he owns his company and does the work himself so I can skip the middleman. I have also seen his works done at my friend's house that seems to fit my needs. In addition, his price was lower than other two bids and he would complete the project in 8 days compared to others that offered 15 days. My friend has warned me that he is very sneaky and will charge you quite a bit if you decided to change anything. Well, I figured if I had a solid plan and clearly indicated in the contract, it shouldn't be a problem. It turned out that he was such a scam. Even we had a contract, he came up with many excuses for delay, change the material to the cheaper ones; and the one that he could not convince you to change, he charge extra for it. If you don't pay, he will stop working and leave you with the half demolished project. Besides expanding my current patio and installing a pony wall with pre-casted cap stones, the project includes sandblasting and staining the existing patio. While the stamped concrete look good, the capstones and stain were disappointing. The work was sloppy with unsightly cuts despite the custom order. For the stain, he had under estimated the quantity needed and must stop in the middle and waited a few days to find additional materials. By then the color has changed so the next batch did not flow well. It had some ugly patches. He supposed to hire a sub to sandblast my old patio for $500 that was included in the contract, but he called me last minutes to tell that I had to find one myself or the project would be further delayed. I found one that charged $650 but he would only credit me for $500. He charged $300 more to order the curve stone even though selected material had been indicated on the contract. If I am not willing to pay the extra, he would have to use straight stones and had many cuts to achieve the curve as planned. For items that he switched to the cheaper ones, he did not give me credit for such as the lights and stamp concrete pattern that he did not have and it would cost him more to rent. My project supposed to last 8 days. It lasted more than two months from the day he said he supposed to start. His first excuse was his uncle was sick in NY so he had to take a week off. Then he had to special order the material I have requested which he knew it was special order from the start but still promised me 8 days. After several weeks of delay, the order came with the wrong size. He blamed it on the supplier. The reorder took 2 more weeks and then it took him another week to come. I had to call him pretty much every day to find out when he could complete my project. I could have sued him for breach of contract but doing so would give me so much stress and faced longer delay with the messy yard. Therefore I just hang in there and get it over with. It has been a very long and unpleasant experience. Please do yourself a favor, hire someone else. read more

Great professional people and service. Very efficient, knowledgeable, nice, hard working family business people. Highly recommended! The best! read more

Couldn't get Joe to come out for a written estimate. Felt like I was chasing him to give me a quote. Not good customer service. read more

Joe did a great job with our concrete project. He and his team did a driveway, a path and a patio, covering a significant amount of space. They finished the project in three days and ahead of schedule! He provided the best price of all of our quotes and the quality of work was clearly superior to what the other quotes were for. As a woman, it can sometimes be difficult to work with contractors, but Joe and his team were friendly and worked with me to make our landscape plan come to life. He even went out of his way to fit us in ahead of schedule. Thank you!! We would definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone needing concrete. read more

Joe and his crew were amazing to work with on our new driveway, beginning to end. From estimate to completion, he was thorough, responsive, they worked quickly and carefully, and the end result is fantastic. Their bid was one of the most competitive of the many I considered and their work is top notch. I'd recommend them to anyone needing concrete work and we will definitely use them for any future needs. read more

Rodriguez Concrete re-paved my driveway and did great work! They were very organized, their estimate was clear, and they were professional.

Joe's crew just finished a second job in my house and just as the first time... they did an AWESOME job! Yes, I did have to wait a a bit for the job to get done, but Joe kept me posted often and when he gave me the date to do the job, it got done. It may have taken a while but the wait paid off because They are very professional and they do a very good job. I recommend them and will definitely use them again the future. read more

I highly recommend this contractor! The Rodriguez brothers came highly recommended from a co-worker that I know has very high standards. I was a bit surprised when a read the YELP review by "Kathy B" however, because my coworker recommended Rodriguez and Kathy's review was a bit contradicting (i.e. she viewed and liked the work at her friend's house and the friend recommended them but she says she was "warned" about them didn't make sense to me.... then why hire them in the first place?), I decided to give them a shot - they were also by far lower in price than contractors that were not even licensed or insured. The rest of this review is very simple: I am so happy I went with my gut and my co-workers recommendation and hired the Rodriguez brothers. Their work is good quality and good price. They even helped me design my driveway and patio and tried to help me make decisions that would ultimately provide me with a great design. They were very patient with me as well because I had a lot of specific and unique design requests. Whenever we made a change to the original plans I sat down with them and talked about cost - they were very fair - most of the time I was only charged additional for materials or if the design change was significant (for example, I had them build steps which was not in the original plan). Also, generally speaking, they are very polite and personable guys. I highly recommend Rodriguez Patio and Concrete and have included a picture of their good work (my driveway). read more

RC Concrete Engineering - My finished driveway (Ted B.) - Masonry/Concrete Near Me - West Covina, California

I worked with Joe and his son Anthony to re-do my driveway. They tore off the old asphalt, hauled it away, and poured concrete for my 1100 sq ft driveway in two days! Most other competitors were quoting me a week at a higher price. Joe provided great service at a great price. I met with several other concrete contractors. Joe's bid was right in the middle, so not the cheapest or the most expensive. The quality of work was impeccable. I'd refer him to any friends or family that need his services. read more

Joe replied to my request & quoted me. I had two other quotes, but Joe explained the process & options very thoroughly. He was very professional & him & his crews came the following week and finished the job. I am happy with his work & I will get him again for our next concrete wall project. read more

Highly recommend Rodriguez Concrete company. I needed some concrete on the side of my house for my dogs . Called different companies for quotes and Rodriguez Concrete was a better choice by far.

Needed a small concrete pad for a TuffShed. Called a couple of other folks using Angies List and not too good of an experience there. Didn't think Yelp would have what I was looking for. Surprise surprise Yelp does have concrete contractor reviews on their site. Contacted Joe and he came out Friday to provide an estimate. Number was well within budget. Came out the next day and his crew did a quick and very professional job! Very happy and would highly recommend. read more

Well. This was the best experience ever!!! I got 5 bids. Some companies tried to take short cuts in materials. He did not and His bid was the lowest. The whole concrete slab for a basketball court took one day. He started at 7 and was out by 2. He was clean and the slab is beautiful. Do not hesitate to use them for you concrete work. read more

Owner failed to call or show up for the first appointment. Finally showed up for the second appointment. Long story short, as others have stated, unprofessional, not reliable, doesn't know the local city permit requirement for concrete driveways. Makes a written bid for the job cause he wants the job, then sends a text message stating he can't do the job. Basically, a total flake!!! Don't waste your time with this undependable, "flakey" company... read more

From the moment you meet Joe and Eddie, you will realize how passionate they are about their work. They explained the process for the job with great detail. Joe and Eddie go above and beyond with their attention to detail. They were very detailed with their prep work (demo, leveling, forms, etc.). Their passion definitely shows in their work. The end result was phenomenal! Since the new slab, my husband and I have received numerous compliments from friends and neighbors. My husband, who was formerly in the military and also employed by a general contractor in the past, can be very picky about detail. He was amazed at the quality workmanship and detailed finishes. The crew at Rodriguez concrete is professional and easy to work with. They were proficient and finished the job in a timely manner. The cost for the job was competitive and very reasonable. My husband and I highly recommend Rodriguez Concrete. read more

This guy has a lot of knowledge about the concrete works, my house is in the Eastman there are 3 house share the driveway that is why three of us keep calling the difference contractor to get the best and the deal.

After he did our driveway. It comes out what I expected. Thanks! read more
