Constraction reviews in Madison, Wisconsin

I hired Royal Concrete Construction to demolish and replace our old driveway and patio. Andres and his team were extremely professional, completed the job quickly, and communicated with me throughout the entire process. Our house looks so much better now, with much better curb appeal. I feel that we got fantastic value for our money, and would recommend Royal Concrete for anyone else looking to do similar projects.

Royal just completed concrete for our patio. Andres did a great job and is very conscientious and is very helpful in figuring out what works best for your job. He made sure not to make a mess and didn't ruin the lawn around the patio. Highly recommend Royal and if needed will definitely use them again. You won't be disappointed.

Royal Concrete just finished expanding our new driveway and I couldn’t recommend them enough. Andres is great to work with and excellent communicator and knows how to get the job done. He was far more knowledgeable than some of the other quotes we received and actually took the time to walk us through the process.

Royal Concrete Construction did a fantastic job on our garage floor! It was a tough job but they handled it very well. Very fair in price. He pays great attention to detail and makes sure everything is perfect before the job is finished. He finished the job quickly and was very knowledgeable. Will definitely hire them in the future!

Thanks for the perfect new driveway! Royal had excellent communication, showed up the exact hour they promised to do the work, and poured us a new concrete driveway for a lower cost than the other companies in town. They do quality work and don't charge extra for it - for example, they include reinforcing rebar in their price instead of charging added fees like other companies in town.

Royal Concrete replaced our garage floor, half our driveway, and the walkway to our front door. They were wonderful to work with, very polite and professional. They did beautiful, thorough, careful work. They worked extremely hard to get the job done well. Thank you!

This is our second fire pit patio completed by Royal Concrete Construction, a testament to the excellent experience we had with our first project. Their exceptional attention to detail ensured an impeccable finish. From start to finish, Royal Concrete Construction was very friendly, responsive, and genuinely listened to our vision and patiently accommodated our adjustments. They successfully met our timeline and budget expectations, and we appreciated their carefulness in minimizing disruption to our yard and landscaping. Our experience leads us to highly recommend Royal Concrete Construction; they are dependable, patient, and truly prioritize the customer.

Our project involved deconstruction of a wood deck and installation of a paved patio and stairs. Excellent communication, timeline and result provided by business owner Andres . We will be using this business in the future for additional projects. Highly recommend!

Andres and his team are amazing. They were professional, did the work on time, and the final product was exactly what we discussed. He is a protectionist down to the very last detail.

Our new patio is beautiful and we had the best experience working with Royal Concrete. I can't say enough about the courtesy and follow through that most companies just don't have anymore.

Royal Concrete replaced our patio and put in an walkway about a month ago and we could not be more pleased with the results. They were respectful of our property and took great care to protect the existing structures. I appreciated the communication throughout the project and they were willing to answer questions and explain the process. The workmanship is outstanding. They paid attention to details and appeared to take pride in their work. I wanted to keep the project simple and they did not try to upsell features I did not need, It was a smooth experience. I highly recommend Royal Concrete.

Please don’t block side walks! Especially ones right next to major parks.

Prior to the start date I warned Blue Terra that there was construction around my house. Their response was "we will make it work". They showed up the morning we scheduled and said they could not do the work because of the construction. They agreed to start the flooring and would reschedule the remaining of the work. It should be noted that after going to the store they recommended buying flooring, I told them I did not like the selections. They then told me I can pick it from another store and suggested the type to get. I did this and we all agreed to move forward with it.

Blue Terra installed half the kitchen flooring on Monday April 25th. I noticed that it didn't look good but figured they would complete the work the next day. I received an email on Tuesday afternoon asking me to call Paul. This was the first time he expressed concern about the flooring. He said they were not happy with the flooring because it would not stick and then told me to deal with it. They then refused to redo the flooring. I was never told not to use this tile. Paul ONLY expressed concern about it on completion.

They brought in the sink and backsplash tile on April 25th and left these boxes in my living room. I did purchase this material. They told me it would be another month before they get back to me. In the interim I spoke with a couple of trusted friends and they told me this was negligence and that I should get a new contractor. I let Blue Terra know I will not be working with them anymore. They insisted that I purchase the hand crafted countertop they built for my kitchen. I was hesitant to do this as they already told me to deal with the kitchen floor and I was concerned I'd get the same response if the countertop was poorly installed. I did get the new countertop though.

The contractor I hired after them told me the tile for the backslash was grossly overestimated based on what I asked for. I contacted Blue Terra and this was the first time they showed me the numbers. They then told me to contact them when it was done. I took this to mean they would perhaps buy back the unused tile. Because there was so much extra tile, my new contractor went ahead and covered more area than originally discussed. Even after this, there were still 167 tile squares left adding up to about $1000. They also charged me for grout they never brought. When I contacted them with the remaining number they refused to buy it back. I wrote them 3 times hoping to work something out and they then accused me of slander and extortion. This is not true. I am not trying to extort them. I will share my experience on social media. They literally state to do this on their website. This is not slander

In addition, I had to pay the new contractor ~$800 for the removal of the floor they installed.

Paul and the Blue Terra Team took our outdated kitchen with builder grade golden oak cabinets and Formica countertops and created a wonderful modern kitchen with quality cherry cabinets stained a beautiful warm pecan and a statement island topped with Cambria quartz. Not only is our kitchen beautiful but it is much more functional. They designed a longer and wider island with easy to access pull out drawers. The cabinets now go to the ceiling creating more space. Our bar area is now beautiful and makes a statement. We kept the same layout but our kitchen looks much larger and functions better.
Paul and Alycia worked with us on all the design aspects from the cabinet design and color, countertop pattern and color, and flooring choice, to the backsplash tiles and handle pulls. They answered all our questions and put up with my indecisiveness until the design choices were just right for us. They also created 3-D pictures so you could envision the new design in your kitchen.

Paul arranged for all the subcontractors who were very professional and did high quality work.
The entire crew respected our home, did an amazing job and the results show the professionalism and pride they put into what they do.
We were given a work manual that showed the technical design and included what work would be done on a given day/ week. Jesse and Jim were perfectionists and everything went according to plan. We are grateful to everyone at Blue Terra and love our new kitchen.

I can not say enough about Paul and Alycia and the Blue Terra crew. From the moment we walked into their shop, we knew we had found our kitchen remodel partners. We have heard so many nightmare stories of remodels gone wrong due to sloppy contractors. Not so with Blue Terra. They are meticulous, attentive, precise and professional. Alycia was so responsive to all of my questions and requests – she was so helpful and attentive. I can’t stress this enough – she was so prompt with answering all of our questions and made the whole process so seamless. I would recommend Blue Terra to anyone – happy to provide a reference to anyone.

Overwhelming positive experience with Blue Terra! Their personnel and the sub-contractors provided wonderful final results, demonstrated exceptional customer service - and made sure I was totally satisfied with the finished product. Highly recommend them for any home remodeling or construction work!

I fully recommend Blue Terra(BT)! I will break it down by categories that I think most folks are interested in:
Scope of work: new cabinets, flooring, counter and interior doors. This included plumbing, electrical and painting relative to the overall job
Quality: Aaron the carpenter and ALL of the subcontractors were detail oriented and perfectionists. They did such quality work and cleaned up after themselves. I even contracted the painter after the job to use him to paint mg living room.
Cost: the only comparator is what my neighbor paid for a kitchen remodel and the cost for this job was 25k less.
Schedule: they finished on time and at budget. This job went from 8/23 to 10/27
Overall: we absolutely love the job BT did and the end result. I think we all hear horror stories of contractors taking the money and running. Not even close with this group. They are honest, responsible and responsive. If there were issues they took care of them and made it right. They were fair and reasonable (but so was I). I would absolutely recommend them and would use them again and would be happy to tell you all about it. You get what you pay for. I liked that they are a small outfit, but growing. Kay, the designer made such a beautiful design. Paul the owner put his stamp on things but Kay was my primary contact and she was great. They both are calm and accommodating and the folks they work with are perfectionists. These are the folks with the work ethic you expect and hope to get when you contract a job . These folks are professionals. I totally recommend them. My kitchen is amazing.

Roughly a year ago, Blue Terra completed my kitchen remodel. I have zero regrets. Everybody who works for them, including the contractors (floor installers, electricians, plumbers) did a fantastic job and were more than courteous in my house.

If you're thinking about updating your kitchen, you probably love to cook. And it was stressful not having that option during this process. But from the design to the demolition to the re-build, Blue Terra keeps you in the loop, shares the timelines, and always answers your questions promptly.

There is also a lot of flexibility in terms of which appliances you go with. Blue Terra doesn't try to sell you anything, which is nice. All I did was send them the dimensions for the stove, fridge, and dishwasher and they took care of the rest.

If you're going to renovate your kitchen, I highly recommend Blue Terra!

Blue Terra did a complete renovation of my kitchen. I am extremely pleased with the results! Paul and his team were professional, courteous and on top of everything. They were knowledgeable, informative and attentive to detail.
Alycia was patient, kind and helpful every step of the way. Overall, Blue Terra delivered a high-quality result at a very reasonable price.

We had a very positive experience working with Paul and his team on our kitchen remodel. Our project was fairly extensive and required some creativity and custom solutions, and the Blue Terra team excelled on all challenges. They managed the project well, and were conscientious in maximizing the functionality of our kitchen throughout demolition/construction. Paul is skilled, honest, cost conscious, and trustworthy, and so are his team members; we felt very at ease with having them working in our home. I'd recommend Blue Terra to others.

With Blue Terra’s help, our kitchen renovation turned out to be a fun and satisfying experience. We needed to update our kitchen with new cabinets, countertop, and backsplash, but being design-challenged, we were not really looking forward to the process. After working with a large remodel company for another project, we decided we wanted to work with a smaller company on this project. We met with Paul and Alycia and were convinced they would be personally invested and involved in the project. They were very patient and did a great job of helping us narrow down our choices to ultimately make decisions with which we are very happy. Thanks to their design help and their attention to detail, our kitchen looks wonderful. Their crew was prompt, neat, friendly to our pets, and always happy to answer any questions. We highly recommend them and will be giving Blue Terra a call when we get around to remodeling the master bathroom!

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Blue Terra. The kitchen remodel has completely transformed our house and Paul and Alycia were very accommodating, while working within our desired timeline and budget. Their advice and ability to navigate the intricacies of our existing kitchen and desired outcome was truly amazing. They even let us handle a portion of the demo work ourselves! We enjoyed the process so much that we are now working with them on a new bathroom project.
