Anyone know people/companies in Temecula the area who I can trust with concrete and painting (interior)? My wife and I are moving into a new house and we need to get part of the inside painted and cover the pile of dirt in the back with some concrete. I am not from the area and I saw some posters who live there. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Just thought I would try this again. We just moved in and we are getting estimates for concrete work. If you know anyone please pass on the info.
Thanks guys.
I don’t know anyone in Temecula, but I have done some concrete work.
Check with your local building codes office on the requirements for concrete construction.
Hold the contractors to it.
If the job calls for drainage, reinforcement grid, compacted underbedding(crushed stone,cinder,etc), and any other features that are not readily visable, be there to make sure that they are being installed correctly.
Some contractors like to cut corners on things that can majorly affect the life of the work. The ones I listed are ones I’ve seen contractors often cut corners on. Especialy Thickness.
Also, keep in mind that the price will vary according to the finish. Sections of exposed aggregate, pattern swirls, stamping and dyeing will all effect price.
You don’t have to hound the guys, but just make sure that you are getting what you are paying for.
Good luck.
