We had a great experience with Primos Concrete on our new patio. Juan was professional, easy to work with, and kept everything running smoothly. His crew was exceptionally kind and took into consideration our wants and needs. They did excellent work, and the final result looks fantastic. Highly recommend!

Had a great experience working with Juan and Primos Concrete on the removal and replacement of our patio, sidewalk and driveway. We were able to get a quote quickly and Juan was extremely easy to work with and answered all of my questions and concerns. The crew was quick and did a great job with clean up as well. We…

Primos poured a cement slab in our back yard for a basketball hoop. They were professional, and the best value. They did a great job!

Couldn’t be more pleased with the turn out of our new back patio and slab to put our shed on. Juan indicated from the beginning exactly what the time line looked like for them to start. He stood by his word and showed up ready to go at 7am with his crew. Prep was ready by 10:30, poured at noon and the finishing…

Juan tore out and replaced my driveway that had sank and crumbled. Did a fantastic job, was right on time, cleaned up and the entire crew was very efficient and polite. Two years later, in May of 2022, had Juan come back and pour a patio for my hot tub. Again, excellent work all around. Would use Juan and his company again with no worries at all.

Juan responded immediately to our request for a quote, gave us a firm date to do the work, dealt with the city for any permits, and did everything on time. He removed and replaced our driveway and garage floor and it looks great. Thanks Primos Concrete!

The cost was less than expected (not ridiculously cheap, but fair. I don't want to set unreasonable expectations of cost), but the worksmanship exceeded my expectations. They poured three separate areas on my property and I took the day off just to watch, learn, and be available in case anything came up. I watched…

Juan and his crew were fantastic to work with!! I highly recommend Primos Concrete to anyone needing concrete work done. We had damage from the Derecho to our driveway, front steps, walkway, and retaining wall from very large trees that came down in the storm. After seeing all the great reviews, I called to get a…
