Highly Recommend! We are truly grateful for Chip and his crew in helping us get settled in our retirement home. What a fantastic experience from the initial contact, to the quote process, to the actual work performed, and the very careful cleanup when finished. We truly appreciated Chips ongoing communication to keep us updated on the schedule, never once missing a commitment with us (job was completed within 8 days of initial contact). Overall cost was great, too! You are wasting your time with other concrete contractors Call Chip next time you need concrete work done!

Chip installed my patio 7 years ago. When I needed a new driveway I knew that I could count on his experience and professionalism. I'm very happy that I chose him and his team because they did a great job!

My son who is in a wheelchair was moving in with me so I needed to redo the sidewalk to have a smaller incline and to widen it. Nicholas Concrete gave us a very reasonable estimate. His team did an excellent job with the sidewalk. I am very pleased and will definitely use them again the next time I need concrete work done.

Submitting this review for John and Eileen. We waited a very long time to have our driveway in concrete. We knew of no concrete contractors, and we wanted someone we could totally trust. A.E. Nicholas Concrete Construction was highly recommended to us, as he was/is known for excellent work and owned his business for over 40 years. We called immediately. I can honestly say, Chip the owner, was very pleasant to talk with. He answered any of our questions and made us feel at ease. If there were rain delays in the schedule, Chip would always notify us. Chip works right with his guys, and to say they

Thank you Chip for our new driveway/sidewalk! Our boys are going to love being able to play basketball, ride their bikes, and chase after each other (even more than they already do)! Your work is impeccable! Even more, your customer service, attention to detail, and communication was far beyond anything we ever expected. Truly the best concrete company out there!!!

I needed a pad for a hot tub I purchased. Another cement contractor in the area blew me off and thought the job was "too small." He wouldn't even come and look at it and see for himself? That's when I called Nicholas Concrete. "Chip" the owner called me right back, showed up at my house the very next morning at 7AM. Had an estimate in my email by 8:30AM. I immediately said yes, as the price was right, and then had his entire crew in my yard by 10:30AM to start the work! Absolutely amazing!!! They had the entire job done within 48 hours! I highly recommend this company and excited to share this
