My wife and I just bought a home in April of this year and decided to have some updates done to the…read moreproperty. One of the first things we decided to do was extend our concrete patio to cover a dirt patch. We looked online and found Advanced Concrete, and after seeing mostly good reviews decided to hire him. We got scheduled for the work and ended up liking the results. The only issue we had with this work is that they dumped concrete waste in the back corner of our backyard. We have multiple dogs and had been looking for the best solutions to keep the floor clean and manageable. After looking at the possibilities, we decided that stained concrete floors would be the best option. Having already used this company for the patio, we decided to retain their services and get all our floors replaced (we had a mixture of floor types). We got scheduled and were told it would take an estimated 7 days to complete as well as haul off the concrete from the backyard. Now, I understand an estimate is an ESTIMATE. However after a week had gone by watching them on our security cameras come in after 10am and leave by 2pm, we were told that they needed more time. At this point in time, the old floors were not all the way up and there was a big pile of trash in the living room. We gave them more time as there wasn't really anything we could do about it. I eventually was able to come in during the day to find out what the issue was. The contractor assured us that they would get the trash out asap as well as work overnight to stay on the new time frame (in total it took 2 weeks with weekends). We got a call Friday after work that the AC isn't working and it's too humid for the concrete to dry properly, although they already began to lay the floors. I rushed over to find out not only had they not ventilated like they said they would but- This was not the first day they AC wasn't working. After looking at our smart AC information it was running over 18 hrs for 3 days in a row with it set at 80 degrees. The AC filter was so packed with dust from them not ventilating that dust poured off. They never informed us that a new AC filter was needed. They had also tried to set the AC to 70 degrees one day but we caught that and had that corrected. After finally being done with the floors we came home to- Tape everywhere 100's of nails sticking out where they removed baseboards Dust everywhere Floor stain on walls Old baseboards with nails sticking out in backyard And the backyard concrete STILL THERE after they assured they would clean that up from when they did the patio work The main area that needed work was the entryway that was built up on subfloor and was beginning to crack. After a couple of visits on recurring weekends, they poured concrete and patched it to the rest of the concrete (additional work we paid for). However, it looks horrible and the contractor knows it. While they were patching I pointed out they still haven't gotten the backyard concrete, to which he replied "Yes we did" and "We don't have a trailer to haul anything else, but we'll get it next weekend". The next weekend it was "Yes we did" and "We don't have shovels". I provided them shovels and they filled up a wheelbarrow full of concrete. We have a lock and camera on the gate/backyard so they NEVER got anything before that. Additionally, on multiple occasions I overheard the laborers insulting us as well as calling my wife a b**** (they never met her). The contractor is nice in person, but his work is backed up by shotty performance and subpar results. Minutes after the last time they left, I noticed a spot that was missed. He told me they used all of the concrete only for me to find a bucket half full of the concrete later that day behind our trash cans. 3 last minute cancellations later, we finally told him not to bother as we will have another company do the fix for us. The company who will now be doing the fix has done other A+ work and commented that normally they would not take a job with the previous work being done so poorly.

If after coming out they decided that they didn't want my business I would've thought the professional thing to do would to just say thanks for the inquiry but this is a project we're not able or willing to do. I've also noticed that it seems when someone gives him a negative review he can't find their information. Just based on his responses if I were a customer considering this company I'd reconsider after looking at his responses doesn't take responsibility for his actions.

***PLEASE READ BEFORE HIRING FREEDOM***We hired Freedom Outdoor Living to expand our back patio and…read morebuild a pergola. While there are aspects of the project that we feel they did a good job with (mainly the pergola), we feel it's important to warn other potential customers of the issues we have experienced working with them. First, this company uses subcontractors, and unfortunately, many times they didn't show up at all to perform the work they were scheduled to do or performed the work incorrectly. This led to significant delays throughout the project and was extremely frustrating. It put us in the position of constantly following up to ensure the work was done and done right. As an example, the concrete steps we asked them to build were initially very narrow and a safety hazard. We asked them to correct that. Our pergola was not built correctly according to the design, and we had to ask them to correct that as well. The railings around the patio were installed incorrectly, and again we had to ask them to correct this. We understood that the stain of the existing patio may never perfectly match the new concrete patio but the colors are not even close. Dominic was our main point of contact with Freedom and was apologetic every time this occurred (which was frequently) and let us know the excuses the subcontractors provided. They did make these corrections, but what I'm not sure Dominic (and Allen) with Freedom understand is that this is absolutely a reflection on their company when they hire subcontractors that either unreliable, incompetent, just "don't care," or all of the above. Unfortunately, they had already stained our concrete steps so when they did fix the prior sloppy work, the stain didn't match the remaining patio. The biggest complaint that we have with them is that once the entire project was complete (in April 2023), within a month the concrete overlay that they had put on our patio to match the extended patio we built (which it never did) started to deteriorate in a section of the patio. (We now know from speaking with others who have knowledge of concrete work that this overlay was not installed correctly from the beginning). We immediately informed them of the issue and 3 months later (after repeated texts) they repaired the section of damaged overlay without restaining. In other words, we had a large white patch of concrete on our brown stained patio for another 2-3 months. Again, after repeated texts and excuses, they finally let us know they would be sending someone out to stain the patched area of concrete. We had asked them to ensure that the patched area matched the remaining concrete and asked them to fix the issue with the entire patio being multiple different shades of stain. To this they asked us to either pay $3800 to correct the poor staining all done on our patio by THEIR contractors or only stain the patched area of concrete for free. We absolutely refuse to pay Freedom more for THEIR work that was not done right to begin with and agreed for them to only stain the patched area (with the expectation that it would, at least, match the existing patio). Of course, it doesn't and looks awful. I included a picture here so you can see how bad this looks. We are now left with a concrete patio that is 4 different shades of brown and is an eyesore. We have texted Allen and Dominic multiple times to ask that they do the right thing and restain our patio so that all of THEIR work is one color. What is very disappointing is they are not even responding to us anymore. There is no sense of wanting to do the right thing for their customer or even taking pride in the work they are doing. It is very disheartening that after trying to be understanding with them throughout all the delays/failures in the project once they got their money they really didn't seem to care. Allan/Dominic/Freedom Outdoor Living, if you are reading this and would like to correct your staining work on our patio and make this right, we would gladly welcome it and be happy to amend this review.
