Our hilltop home in Eustis was built in…
Our hilltop home in Eustis was built in the late 1980s with a 125' inclined concrete driveway. The original driveway was cracking and beginning to sink in places. We contacted numerous companies in order to obtain a solution. Three of those companies proposed pumping lifting foam into the sunken areas and patching the cracks from above. The rest proposed replacing part or all of the driveway. What astonished us was some of the concrete companies said we either did not need a permit or that we could pull the permit ourselves. Being retired Realtors, we knew this was false or more trouble than we wanted. When the proposals came to us, we discovered the price to lift and repair the driveway was as much or more than poring a new concrete driveway. Before contracting the job, I had many questions. Each company I called, I either got voicemail or no answer. When I called Sam the Concrete Man, I got a real person. This proved to be valuable as we proceeded. Sam the Concrete Man's price for an entirely new driveway was equal to two of the companies who wanted to lift the broken pieces. They said they would handle the permits, inspections and offered a warranty. Interestingly enough, there was no guarantee offered from the lifting companies as spelled out clearly on their contract.We awarded the contract to Sam the Contact Man hoping all would go well. It took them two weeks to obtain the necessary permits from the City of Eustis. This didn't surprise us as Lake County is the worst when it comes to these issues. Once the permits were obtained the work began. I can't say enough good things about their employees. They started work every day at 7 AM and worked until dark. They handled the demolition of the old concrete the first day. The second and third day was filling, leveling and tamping the underlying ground between the forms. On the fourth day, they pumped and smoothed the new concrete. What we have now is a beautiful new driveway that we are very pleased with. Our neighbors have complimented us on our new driveway and have asked us who did the work? We tell them Sam the Concrete Man in Orlando. They gave us the best price, did the best work and did everything just as they said they would.

If I could have given these guys zero stars I would have.Had high hopes of these guys doing my courtyard and driveway.They quoted me $9700 for a concrete pad installed with Travertine pavers on top.I paid separately for the pavers myselfThe day before they were to start they call to tell me the price was now $13200Said they didn’t account for the concrete.Can you believe that, a concrete company that in their quote didn’t include the concreteStay away from these guys.

The crew replaced my driveway in two days. It is beautiful. Nick B. was my estimator. After looking at several concrete contractors, I decided on Sam the Contract Man to do the job. The estimate was reasonable. Nick appeared each day to insure the job was getting done satisfactorily. Henry, the crew lead, was also instrumental in evaluating additional work which needed to be done. I couldn't be more pleased. Give those guys a raise...

Damages and Sloppy Workmanship.…
Damages were caused by the Technicians at “Sam The Concrete Man” located in the Trevose, Pa. Bucks County Franchise while using their equipment. The Jackhammer cracked our Bay Window around the bottom of the frame, the Lawn was torn up and we had to purchase sod to replace the destruction. The Wood placed to pour cement for our step is still embedded in the walkway, a shadow of the pieces remain, bonding came apart, our driveway was never cleaned from the equipment going up and down and is still embedded in the asphalt. A line that was created for effect is deteriorating, leaving stone and rock underneath visibly peeling daily. Buyer Beware! I Do Not recommend this company.

The quality of work was very bad
The quality of work was very bad. There were many holes on the second day after they finished the work. After I complained, they finally filled the holes. Then I found the corners are broken. I again complained about the corner and sent a picture of the broken corners to Kevin. Sam's concrete did not fix the corners. They also damaged my grass.
