We were initially very pleased with our driveway, garage, patio, and sidewalk work. However, within a year of the project, we noticed a place at the end of the driveway that was not leveled completely and there is standing water every time it rains and snows. I sent several emails and was told that I was "on the schedule" but never heard back from anyone. It has now been two years and no one has ever contacted me to come set up a time to come out to fix the problem.

We are so glad we went with Alba Contractors to do our driveway. They did such a good quality job and their customer service is professional and respectful. Josh in sales did a great job communicating and managing the project while answering all of our questions and concerns. We are very satisfied with how everything turned out and even after strong rain, the drainage is no longer a worry for us with no standing puddles of water on our driveway. We highly recommend their services and support.

We had ALBA replace our driveway, garage floor, walkway, and add a pull off on the side of our house. From the first phone call with Margie to Sonny's team everyone was great. They answered all of our questions and worked with us on a last minute change, sorry about that. They were here when they said they would be here and even called us to let us know if the weather was changing their plans. Mother nature didn't agree with us during the entire process but we are extremely happy with the quality of the work. Thanks again!Services: Concrete sidewalk building, Concrete driveway building

I had my driveway replaced one year ago. I now have cracks in the concrete. I have not used any deicing chemicals as instructed. I am very displeased with the outcome. I will say that the staff was friendly and they completed the job in a timely matter but I cannot afford to replace concrete after one year.Service: General paving

Alba’s sidewalk concrete installation at our condo complex was a complete fiasco. Their final sealing was faulty, so now the sidewalk is splotchy everywhere. A year later, still no fix!! Their remediation of the landscaping they destroyed during the project was botched: they used rock- and weed-filled dirt instead of topsoil, leaving the property ugly for months - still not right. NOW, after only one winter, the surface is cracking and spalling!! DO NOT EVER USE THIS COMPANY!!

I recently had Alba tear out an old asphalt drive and re-pour new concrete at my home. It was a a real positive experience. Every member of their team was hard working and professional. They had great communication with us and worked through small details that arose. The final job looks great.

Alba tore out our old patio and replaced it with stamped concrete. It looks fantastic! This year we had them tear out the asphalt driveway and replace it with concrete. It looks fantastic too! I am so excited that both projects are done and that we picked a great company to do the work! Everyone was friendly and professional. Any questions I had they were right there to answer them. Thank you guys for being so great!Services: Driveway installation, Stamped concrete services

I would highly recommend using Alba Contractors. I recently had them install a new concrete driveway and front walkways. Every step of the process from the initial measuring and marking to the actual pour was a positive experience. Their staff was extremely professional, organized, and pleasant to work with. The finished product looks great! I look forward to working with them again for my patio next summer.Services: Concrete sidewalk building, Concrete driveway building

I called several contractors regarding a drainage issue I was having with the crock, drainage pipes and flooding in my backyard; however none of them wanted to take the time to figure out a solid solution on how to fix my problem, except Alba Contractors. They came out, assessed the problem, listened to what I wanted to have fixed, then thoroughly explained what needed to be done and how they would handle the repairs. Their prices were competitive, and even better than some other contractors who simply wanted to gouge the customer. They were very personable and professional, and their quality of work was outstanding. The repairs were finished in a day, and they left my yard and work area cleaned up and neat. I would highly recommend Alba Contractors and wouldn't hesitate to call them again.

We had waterproofing, a concrete patio, and stone fire pit done by Alba in 2014. The concrete and firepit still look beautiful. We haven't had any problems with drainage after the waterproofing. We were very happy with the work they did. Any questions we had while they were working were responded to promptly. All of the workers at our home during the job were very respectful of our property and friendly. We just hired them to do another concrete job at our home and are looking forward to working with them again.

I hired Alba during summer 2015 to replace my garage, waterproof my basement and a new driveway. They did a great job and were easy to deal with. Of course there was a couple minor hiccups in a large job like this but they were always professional, work turned out great and price stayed the same. Next time I need work done I will definitely give them a shot. They aren't the cheapest, but you don't want the cheap guy working on your home.

I had a driveway replaced in June, 2016 by AlbaConcrete. In April, 2018, I discovered that it was crumbling. After 4 months, several phone calls, my only response was someone came and took a picture of the driveway and a letter stating they had contacted the concrete supplier and were awaiting their response. I filed a complaint with the BBB. I then finally received a letter in August requesting that I allow Osborne Concrete to drill a hole in my driveway so that the sample could be sent away for analysis. I signed and mailed the request. The hole was drilled in August, 2018 at which time Mr. Osborne stated they knew nothing of the problem until two weeks before their coming to my home. As of this date March, 2019, I have been unable to obtain the result of that analysis, nor have I been able to get Alba Concrete to respond to my complaint in any way. They recently told the BBB that they had been to my home which if so, they did not see me, call me or communicate with me in any way. My old driveway looked better than the one I am stuck with now. They are quick to take your money, but appear to be unwilling to stand behind their product. I would never recommend them to anyone and would suggest that anyone thinking about using them to think twice.

We needed a contractor to replace two and a half foundation walls in our large century home. Contacted many contractors with few results. I got the name of ALBA Contractors from the Lake County Building Inspectors office. Al came out, we discussed the job and signed a contract. Al was very helpful. Job started as discussed considering the wet summer which delayed many construction jobs. Workers were a little too much like construction zone workers considering my wife was home all day. There were a lot of last minutes things that needed to be done by me that I would have liked to know about in advance. The office was great to work with. Always got back to me and answered my questions. Al would answer my emails. There was a problem on the job and Al brought in an engineer to look the job over and give some recommendations. Very nice touch. This was a big job that not many contractors wanted to do and I would hire ALBA again.

Contacted them for replacement driveway quote. Set an on site appointment and showed up at correct time. Received very accurate quote at that time. Went the extra mile to tie into existing concrete patio. Other companies were slow to provide estimates with no timeline. Alba treated me like that wanted my business and i currently have no issues. Cleaned up properly to include Saturday and Sunday work.

I had the easiest and most pleasant experience having Alba Contractors install a beautiful concrete patio in my back yard. Very easy to deal with. Work was done in a very timely fashion, and to high standards as well as affordable. Highly recommend!!

Alba is quick to quote a job and the project isALWAYS done as quoted. Winters band deicersAre killer for concrete especially when newly poured. Any issues with concrete work is resolved to a mutual agreement and handledQuickly. Remember that concrete is alwaysProduced by others and delivered to the job.Alba or any other finisher is at the mercy of the producer. Alba is a first class company and willDo above and beyond for the customer.

I was looking for someone to waterproof and put a new driveway in, and after asking on facebook for some idea,s , I made a few appointments.Alba, by far, was so much more knowledgeable than the others, and we just hit it off. Very, very satisfied with the workers and their work. I would definitely recommend them .

Contracted with Alba for a large apron in front of a new garage. Difficult getting the project started prior to winter due to lack of communication. Al Sluga talks a good game, but is totally unresponsive in resolving any issues. Once project started, they made arbitrary decision to not install metal reinforcing and instead planned on using fiberglass. I had to show contract to installers to get them to comply with contract. Was told decision made by VP of Construction. I have a brick drive and they used buggy's to bring material from street. Well, numerous places on the brick they spilled concrete material. The VP of Construction promised to have it power washed, but never had it done, and never returned my followup calls. They also made the concrete too high where it meets the brick drive, so there is a huge bump. Paid extra for a colored smoke finish but it is not what we paid for. They continuously pulled workers off my job to go to other job sites. At the end, they left one guy to stay and level off and finish up. Not happy with finish at all. Wavy in some spots and broom finish inconsistent. Would not use them again nor recommend them to anyone. There are to many other good contractors to choose from .

I first saw Alba contractors working on my street. I watched how they worked and what type of quality they produced. I knew that they were a company I would like to have submit a bid for work I needed. I have been very happy for many years and multiple projects.

Al came out to assess my garage foundation today. His assessment matched what I paid a Structural Engineer to assess. Both Al and the SE only recommend tuck pointing, which is a minimal cost, and Al confirmed that there were no major structural issues. Al is an honest contractor and I'd highly recommend him.

I can't speak to the negative comments posted on Alba's web site, but I can say I am a retired Board of Building Standards Building Official with 0ver thirty years of building trades experience.I hired Alba Construction to water proof two of my basement walls that were seeping water into my finished basement, the crew showed up on the scheduled day for the work to begin, I watched over the work as it progressed and was not surprised to see the work being done pursuant to the contract I signed.On day two we had three inches of rain that caused the work to be postponed for a day.When the work started back up the west wall of the trench had caved in all over the new schedule 30 drain tile.I asked the workers what they were going to do and without hesitation they agreed they would have to hand dig the two truck loads of dirt out from on top of the new drain tile.Needless to say the cave in cost Alba several hours of labor and a truck load of washed gravel to satisfy my concerns! They proceeded without hesitation and completed the work and cleaned up after themselves.On a scale of ten I would give this company a nine.

Very rude workers. I'm a resident of Lost Nation Condos, and the one lane to enter the complex was blocked by the truck pouring concrete. As I was waiting, one of the workers had the nerve to tell me to go over the grass to go around the truck. The problem with that is the potential of damaging my vehicle. Who would pay for the damages? I can understand getting a job done, but the disrespect is unacceptable. The worker and I exchanged some frustrating words. I wouldnt recommend this company to anyone.

I had a huge project I wanted to do involving a new patio, concrete/stone work, new shed and a new deck. 3 people from this company came out, I walked them around my property and explained everything I wanted done. They said it would take a week or so to draw up a quote. That was the summertime of 2018 and I still haven’t heard anything from them. What a horrible company and way to lose out on a huge project and money!*Edit* in response to your reply that is a lie. I check my spam and junk folder DAILY along with my inbox. I, in fact, did call and the receptionist said she would have someone contact me and they never did. Finally a received an email from you guys in March; it was your NEWSLETTER! I replied to your newsletter stating you guys are terrible and please remove me from the email list.

ALBA Contractors were professional and personable from the estimate through completion. Al and his crew did a great job on the driveway and we are very pleased with the experience.

Poured our driveway and it looks beautiful. The demo crew and the concrete crew were both a great group to work with. We couldn't be happier. I give them all a big thumbs up!!

I highly recommend Alba Contractors Inc and I can not say enough about my experience from the initial call to arrange a free estimate to completion of the job! After obtaining four estimates, the decision to hire Alba was a no-brainer based on contact with front desk staff and sales person, even though there were cheaper estimates from other companies.Replacing a concrete garage floor and driveway is a big job but Alba's professionals especially the crew members, who demo, prep and installed new concrete were amazing! Throughout the job, several of my neighbors would stop by to check-out the progress, the final job, and often commenting what a great job the company was doing. If you have a concrete job(s), hire Alba because you will not be disappointed.Services: Concrete driveway building, Flooring
