Fred Construction Company

I've used Fred for several projects including sod installation, a new driveway, and my foundation when I did my addition. Always very professional, and did a great job with cleanup.

We would definitely NOT recommend Fred Construction Company. They were hired by our builder to do our concrete driveway and landscaping. They did a very poor job with everything!! The driveway cracked after a month or so in many places. When we reached out to Fred as to what could be done, we never heard a word back. We recently had someone out to look at our driveway and they said one of the reasons it cracked was due to not being prepped properly with gravel underneath and now we have water intrusion. This is a MAJOR issue!
They were also hired to put down sod & seed on our 1+ acre lot. We saw them throw the seed down with no concern to where it was going and they did the same with the straw. We had areas very heavily seeded or heavy with straw and others with nothing. They did not level out where the sod was being laid and we have holes all over our yard that we now have to fill in. They also did not do anything about drainage as we now have standing water on the one side of our home anytime it rains. Another issue we are going to have to deal with ourselves to correct. We had never seen Fred at our home during any of the work being done or afterwards. They have blocked me from their FB page due to my
review there. Again, no response from them. VERY unprofessional and very sad they don't stand behind their work and won't return emails, texts or phone calls.
UPDATE: We had a concrete company out to look at the cracking and they said it cracked due to the cement being watered down. Nothing can be done to correct this unless the areas are torn out and re-poured.
IN RESPONSE FROM Fred Construction Co.: We understand we did not hire you directly, however indirectly you did the work for us since it was our home that was being built. When there are issues with subcontractors after closing, you reach out to them, not typically the builder. We had roofing and AC issues, we called those subs directly and they came and took care of the issues. So as far as the driveway cracking, yes you should be responsible for it. We DID NOT have our moving truck come on the driveway or any other heavy vehicles within 30 days. They pulled into the lot next door and came around to the back. With our own vehicles we were EXTRA cautious and gave the concrete more than enough time to cure before we even drove those on it.
We were on site when much if not all of the work your company did, so we saw first hand what was being done.
We HATE that you still have not been paid!! That is totally unacceptable. We understand you are not alone. Several other subs were very late in being paid or not paid also.
Whether or not you have been paid, we feel that our driveway should not have cracks this early and that you should have at least responded to our email. We have had to spend thousands of dollars correcting things that were not done correctly or at all and as we get the funds will have to do even more work. In regards to the sod, yes we understand that was the builder's call, however, why would nobody question putting Bermuda sod down and fescue seed?

In this day and age of finding the right contractors to work ,well it can be very challenging. Finding Fred Construction Company was a great find. Going forward I  HIGHLY  HIGHLY  recommend this company to do all my future concrete work . The team were very professional in dealing with me and the job they had to do. Quality was very important them!
