New garage floor

Eric's company did an excellent job replacing our garage floor. He is very knowledgeable and no-nonsense. He explained everything that needed to be done and the duration. Every thing was done on time and on budget. At the end of the job, Eric's crew did a good job to clean up afterwards. I will recommend Eric's company to folks if they are looking to replace their garage floor or have any concrete work done.

replace concrete garage floor

We are completely satisfied with the quality of the workmanship and with the way Eric conducted business. He and his men did what he said he would do, when he would do it and for the price he quoted. He checked on the work in progress and returned after the job finished to personally ensure that it was completed to our satisfaction. The price was fair and reasonable to replace our double-car garage floor. Eric is courteous and professional and we will definitely recommend Eric's Concrete to our family and friends. We only wish we had hired Eric's Concrete to replace our garage floor years earlier. Thanks Eric.

leaky basement

Last fall, I asked, through the Internet, 3 companies to give me an estimate to fix my problem with a leaky basement. Eric was by far the lowest bidder. The reviews impressed by Eric, I liked his explanations of the work involved. When I signed the contract with him, he furnished in minute details every aspect of the work, the time-frame, and that he would come every day to make sure the work was done properly and to alleviate any concerns I might have. He did the work in the time-frame indicated, the disturbance was held to a minimum. The work area was very well secured by a fence. At the end of each day, the workers made sure to clean up the work site and properly store their heavy equipment. I was extremely pleased with his work and would highly recommend him.

Cracked Basement Wall

Eric was very professional and explained in detail what our problem was. Eric's cost was very competitive with all the other companies I contacted but in my opinion, his trade knowledge made the decision to use his company an easy one. We needed this job done very quickly as we had a basement reno scheduled. Eric's company made our job a priority and had the job done as promised. I would recommend this company to my friends and family.

Waterproofing

I have used Eric's Concrete and Masonry Services Ltd. on several occasions to do water proofing and underpinning. Eric's knowledge and experience make dealing with him a pleasure. His proposals are very detailed, and includes shop drawings and specific products he intends to use. Eric has a team of highly trained and experienced tradespeople that take great pride in their work. Their work is immaculate, the jobsite was always left clean at end of the day, and protective fencing and safety equipment was always used. I would definitely hire Eric's Concrete and Masonry Services again and would not hesitate to refer him.

Basement waterproofing

We had a great experience with Eric and his team. Eric answered all our questions and made us feel at ease. His team were always polite and worked hard. The work site was always kept clean and they made sure we always felt safe entering and exiting the house during construction. Since the work was finished this fall, we have seen the humidity steadily drop in the basement and the cement block is visibly drying out. We feel confident that the work Eric performed for us will extend the life of our house and add value beyond the cost of work.

Replace support steel beam

Although it was a relatively small project to replace the metal support beam in the garage, Eric was professional and courteous, and offered the best price. The support column (a square metal 4x4 beam) was rusting away because it is placed in the garage, between the two cars where salt water will accumulate from the cars. Holes had started to appear at the base of column.
Further rusting would compromise the structural integrity of the house, as this support column was in place to support the second floor of the house and the upper roof of the garage.
Eric came promptly to assess and give an estimate. His contract was detailed and described materials to be used, how long it will take and total costs.
Eric kept me briefed on the progress of the work. His crew showed up on time and were friendly and experienced. I was very impressed by the professionalism and honesty of this business.
Eric told me exactly when he would start and finish the work, and he was true to his word. I would highly recommend his work without reservation.

foundation repairs

Eric's Concrete did a good job of fixing our foundation problems. I appreciated the time and the minimal intrusion he took to determine the problem. He explained what was needed and why and did not try to sell us what we did not necessarily need. The job started in fall and ended in spring due to homeowner desires. He id what was necessary to avoid problems until we were ready to proceeed. We appreciated that professionalism and cleanliness of the crew. We went with Eric because of his knowledge and ability to explain what was needed. Would certainlu recommend him others. You get what you pay for and we belive we got our money's woth.
