Client Stories

What our clients say

We let the work — and the people who live with it — speak for themselves.

Does This Sound Familiar?

The problems that
show up in the concrete

Concrete problems tend to get ignored until they’re a trip hazard or an eyesore. Here’s what usually brings people to us.

The driveway is cracked, heaving, or sinking in spots.

An uneven slab or walkway has become a real trip hazard.

The surface is flaking, spalling, or stained beyond cleaning.

A retaining wall is leaning, bulging, or shifting after the rains.

You want stamped or decorative concrete but aren’t sure what’s possible.

Patch jobs from the last contractor already look worse than before.

When It’s Worth a Call

A good time to reach out

There’s no pressure and no obligation — but a few situations are worth handling sooner rather than later, before a small crack becomes a full replacement.

  • A crack or lift has become something someone could trip on.
  • Water is getting under the slab and each winter makes it worse.
  • A wall is showing movement — waiting risks a full failure.
  • You’re redoing the driveway or yard and want it done right, once.

Why Homeowners Choose Us

Why homeowners trust us
with their concrete

Concrete is unforgiving — done wrong, it cracks, heaves, and has to be torn out. Here’s what sets our concrete and masonry work apart.

Prepped to last

Proper base prep, reinforcement, and control joints — so slabs resist cracking and settling from the start.

In-house finishers

The same crew pours and finishes your work — consistent quality, not whoever the subcontractor sent that day.

Finishes done right

Broom, exposed aggregate, or stamped — we match the finish to your home and pour it to hold up outdoors.

Why DMG

How we’re different

Concrete is expensive to redo, so it’s worth doing once. Here’s how we compare to the typical concrete contractor.

The Other Guys

What most homeowners put up with

  • Slabs poured on unprepped ground that crack and sink
  • Subcontracted finishers of unpredictable quality
  • No control joints, so cracks appear anywhere
  • Quotes that change after the demo starts
  • Patch jobs that look worse than the problem
  • Surfaces that spall and stain within a couple winters
DMG Landscape & Earthwork

The way it should be done

  • Proper base prep and reinforcement under every pour
  • In-house crew pouring and finishing your work
  • Control joints placed to manage cracking
  • Transparent, fixed pricing after a site walk-through
  • A direct line to your project lead — real answers, same day
  • Concrete and masonry built to last decades outdoors

How We Work

From design consultation
to lasting finish

A concrete project done right lasts decades. Here’s how we make sure yours does.

01

Design Consultation

We assess the site, discuss finish options, and walk you through what’s realistic for your budget and timeline — before a single form goes down.

02

Finish Selection & Plan

We help you choose the right finish, color, and pattern, then issue a fixed-price proposal that covers every detail of the job.

03

Pour & Cure

We prep the base, set the forms, and pour with the right mix for your application — then manage curing to minimize cracking and maximize longevity.

04

Final Walkthrough

We inspect the finished surface with you, confirm it meets spec, and advise you on sealing and long-term maintenance.

We offer broom finish (standard), exposed aggregate, salt finish, smooth trowel, and stamped concrete in a wide range of patterns and colors. We'll show you samples and help you choose a finish that complements your home.

Concrete is typically safe for foot traffic within 24–48 hours and for vehicles within 7 days. Full structural strength is reached at 28 days. We'll advise you on the right timeline for your specific project.

We can get very close in finish and color, but a perfect match is difficult — concrete weathers and changes color over time. We'll discuss your expectations upfront and show you samples so there are no surprises.

Yes. We design and build retaining walls in concrete block, poured concrete, natural stone, and segmental retaining wall systems. Walls over 4 feet typically require engineering and permits — we handle both.

Cracking is caused by shrinkage during curing, ground movement, freeze-thaw cycles, and improper base preparation. We use proper sub-base compaction, control joints, appropriate mix design, and curing techniques to minimize cracking significantly.

Yes — demolition and removal is often part of the job. We handle full tearout, base re-preparation, and new pour. If your existing slab can be repaired rather than replaced, we'll tell you honestly.

A driveway or patio pour typically takes 1–3 days for prep and pour, then curing time before use. Larger or more complex jobs with formwork and stamping may take longer. We'll detail the full timeline in your proposal.

We provide a fixed quote after the initial consultation. Because many variables — site conditions, scope, materials, and access — can all affect the final cost, we need to walk the property before we can give you an accurate number. Once we do, your quote is fixed: no surprise add-ons, ever.
