Dan C.

Shaun and team did an excellent job in the complete replacement of my asphalt drive with a well constructed concrete pad. Communication, timeliness and professionalism throughout. Highly recommend.

Rosa Anna Munafo

Shaun and his crew are very professional, hardworking and friendly. I am very please with the front patio/ walkway! I highly recommend Custom Concrete Concept to everyone that is looking for a high quality job and fair price! Thank you very much Shaun and team!

From start to finish Shaun was a true professional. He promptly responded to my emails for a quote compared to other places. He and his team went above and beyond with my driveway extension showing the utmost care. He even saw cut my driveway for a perfect finish. After concrete was poured he noted it was going to rain so he came back and covered it with tarp to make sure it was perfect and saw cut the next morning to perfection. I will recommend him to everyone I know!

Andrew Graydon

I contacted Shaun based on reading the prior reviews and looking at the gallery on the website. From the start of the communications through the process of taking out the old driveway, forming, pouring and finishing, Shaun was a pleasure to work with. The job turned out amazing, a brushed driveway and exposed aggregate in front of the house and for a large pad outside the back. I would recommend Shaun for his response, the work and his friendly communications.

Shaun finished my driveway years ago. When I thought about putting a patio at the backyard, his name just popped out in my head. His work is always high quality and he is the person you can trust. Highly recommend.

Questions worth asking

  • How deep is the granular base, and will it be compacted in lifts?
  • What concrete strength are you specifying, and is it air-entrained? (Air entrainment is what resists freeze-thaw damage.)
  • What reinforcement is included - rebar, mesh, or fibre?
  • Where will control joints go and how deep will they be cut?
  • How is the slope set so water drains away from the house?
