    Blue Constuction just completed a concrete project on my driveway, walkway and patio - and I could not be happier; they did a great job, from start to finish. Everything from the initial sales cycle like providing a clearly written work order, immediate response time to questions, advance notices of arrival times - all extremely professional. When it was time to tear up the existing driveway and patio, frame up before concrete, to pouring the concrete - all were done by a crew that clearly knew what they were doing and had worked together before. I got estimates from 6 contractors (6 others never called back) and Blue was very reasonably priced - felt most comfortable with them. Overall experience far exceeded my expectations. Thanks guys!

    My neighbors recommended Blue Construction as they had walkways and patios poured through them. They were able to handle my patio project and my family is thrilled with how our new patio looks. Thank you!

    I called Blue Construction because they did few more driveways on my street and i liked how they looked. Ruben came 4 times for estimates. When i was finally ready to start this project he came with his crew and finished the driveway in 2 days. They know what they are doing - i do recommend them. Driveway looks beautiful.

    Blue Construction Corp was wonderful to deal with. They were very responsive to my emails and kept me informed of the progress of my patio. The construction crew was in sync and a joy to watch from my window. When they removed my old patio it was like a choreographed ballet with heavy equipment.

    My new driveway looks wonderful. The Blue team worked efficiently together. My only disappointment with the company was that they were supposed to apply a sealer 1-3 days after the concrete was poured but it took a full week and I had to follow up with them about it. They did come to remove their forms from the driveway on the 3rd or 4th day. Aside from waiting for the sealer application, the company met my expectations, and I would recommend this company for concrete work.

    They do really bad job. My driver looks horrible, they not make good leveling the driveway so the water stay all the time and it’s really slippery. After two weeks when they install it, then send another group to put one more coat in my steps and it still looks really bad

    This is hands down the best company. They did my Stoop and stairs in concrete Infront of my house. They were very professional and everything was well planned and executed. They had separate teams for everything and they provided a great service. Definitely going back if I need more work done. Thanks.

    We had a driveway replaced. The first day they arrived to demo the old one. The crew stepped and went right to work. Every one had a job and executed it with precision. It was not long before the old driveway was gone new one was framed out base was down and compacted. This was the same when the crew came to install the new concrete. It was watching a very well choreograph plan. Days later the crew came to dismantle the framing backed filled in with dirt and put down grass seed. At the end of every step they left with the front very clean. Everyone I talked with was very nice. Including the office staff Ingrid and Nancy. They where helpful with and question and concern I had. It was like talking with family. Would highly recommend them .

    I never thought a driveway could be beautiful, but my new one is. I have not seen a driveway like this in my neighborhood. I especially like the curved, larger walk to my front porch. Every member of the crews were courteous and helpful. Thank you Ruben for helping me planning the driveway. Thank you Ingrid for taking all my phone calls.

    Ruben and his team did a wonderful job at our backyard patio. We did concrete and everything turn out really well. Would use their services again in the future!

    I had my sidewalk adjacent to my garage completely redone. They gave me a great price, got the work done within a tight timeframe, the crew worked hard and got the job done quick, and lastly, they knocked it out of the park backfilling the dirt and adding grass seed. It looks great and I’m very thankful. I would definitely use them again.

    Blue Construction did an excellent job replacing by asphalt driveway with a concrete driveway. I am very please with their service and the quality of work. They offered a written proposal in day one and it was a competitive proposal. They have highly skilled crew and manager, specially, Nancy kept me updated throughout the project. Highly recommended.

    Blue Construction replaced the floor in my garage. The work was done per the schedule. Large crew worked quickly to remove the old floor. New floor was poured a few days later. Finished floor looks very nice. Highly recommend them.

    Review of Blue Construction Corp.

    "Blue Construction Corp. recently completed the installation of a new concrete driveway and stairs at my property, and the finished result is visually appealing, even drawing positive attention from my neighbors who have requested their contact information. The initial communication from the company was also helpful, with a clear email outlining the schedule for the pour and providing essential guidelines for initial care, such as when it would be safe to walk and drive on the new surface.

    However, my experience was somewhat mixed due to inconsistencies in communication after the initial stages. My inquiries regarding the reinstallation of the stair railing experienced significant delays in response, requiring multiple follow-ups. Furthermore, after the sealant application, a question I had for the office went unanswered via both phone and email. On the day of the sealant application, there was also a language barrier with the on-site crew, making it impossible to ask questions directly about the process.

    In terms of professionalism, the crew appeared skilled and knowledgeable in their concrete work. However, an unusual incident occurred when they used my outdoor electrical outlet to power a microwave for their lunch, which felt out of place.

    While the overall quality of the concrete seems good, I have noticed a small area on the driveway where water consistently pools after rainfall, which could potentially indicate a minor issue with the grading or surface.

    The work site was cleaned up upon completion, which I appreciated. However, there was no prior communication about the cleanup schedule, leaving me uncertain about when to expect it.

    Finally, as someone without prior experience with concrete work, I found the initial guidance on post-pour care, such as the watering instructions, to be vague. More detailed explanations and proactive information about the curing process and necessary steps would have been beneficial.

    In conclusion, Blue Construction Corp. delivers a quality concrete product that is aesthetically pleasing. However, their communication processes need improvement to ensure timely and effective responses to customer inquiries and clearer guidance throughout the project. While I am satisfied with the final look of my driveway, the communication challenges and the unusual on-site incident leave me with a somewhat tempered overall recommendation.

    They did a fantastic job. They were on time, did a quality job and were done on schedule.

    Had my driveway done. Excellent job from scheduling all the way to the final inspection. Crews were working clean and organized. It took them one day to remove the 2500sf concrete, to remove old gravel and to replace with the new one, and they framed everything as well. Day 2 they used to pour the concrete. Day 3 to remove the framings. Day 4 to seal coat it. Thanks to Nancy, Felix and a crew. Well done!

    Not only do we love our patio, it was a pleasant experience dealing with the crew all the way to the office staff. They kept a nice clean worksite and communication was great! Everyone was so helpful in taking our ideas and turning them into a wonderful space! We’ve already made several recommendations to friends and family. We’ve had many compliments! Thank you Blue Construction!
