Five-Star Feedback on Our Garage and Concrete Floors
What a fantastic job!!!!! On time? Anthony the Awesome was here early! He explained what the different steps of the process were before he started. He had all the equipment necessary to do the job and got right down to it. Six and a half hours later, I had a new garage floor! When he finished, he cleaned everything up. He took time to explain the paperwork before taking my check. A totally positive experience! My floor is absolutely, positively BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I may have to buy a new truck to do the floor justice!!!!! I highly recommend Awesome Anthony and California Custom Coatings!!!!!
This is the first time ever that I can honestly say that I am totally impressed by a contractor. John Celone returned my call within an hour upon first contact. When I told him that we were tight on time, he squeezed us into the schedule and started the job within 2 days. He and his workers were quite prompt every day and very proficient in their jobs, and all speak English as a first language. The only setback was that the expansion joint filler shrank more than expected and once the floor was completed, the expansion cracks were still quite visible (a newer employee did this portion). John totally understood and told me that they would re-do the floor! There was no need for extensive complaining or negotiating to get them to do this - he came right out and offered it!!! Wow! He definitely has integrity! They re-did the floor and it is perfect!! I must add that even with the re-do, they came to the house 6 days in a row to get the job done, with absolutely no scheduling delays. Their goal was to get the job done in an expedient manner and done right. I plan on having him do our garage floor in a month or so, and also will have him stain and seal our concrete patio and walkways in the fall. This is a first for me - impressed enough to use a contractor twice!! I cannot say enough good things about this company - again, a first for me regarding a contractor!
Thorough and professional, from start to finish! Extremely hot days, too. Our garage was a mess from the previous owners choice of epoxy,. It took Craig and Louis the whole day to clean and prep the area. The following morning, Craig was alone and completed the garage floor and did an excellent job. We are thrilled with the great customer service from start to finish. John and his employees are very customer service oriented and we highly refer them for your next project. Will have them out to do more work for us. We are very pleased with the results.
