Mission Valley Concrete

I looked at a number of contractors. What you’ll like about Tom is he is detailed, and gives you an honest opinion of how we would handle a situation, as if it were his own home. He, and his team, did a great job. Like many contractors, you do need to understand they are busy either working on jobs, or getting their next job, so if you’re flexible with this mindset, it’s worth working thru it. Tom is excellent at his craft, but he doesn’t have the overhead to have people doing administration, which I like, as the cost savings goes back to the customer if you are more flexible. I like contractors who do the work, and have the deep expertise. The work is better, and the cost savings go back to the customer. I’m actually surprised there are not more good reviews for Tom. He did my driveway very well. He said he’ll come back and put in some Epoxy to help with my fence later, which sits on top of the new concrete, but all in all, it was a really nice job in the timeframe, price point I was looking at.

Needed our backyard and driveway concreted. He showed up on time do some measurements but never gave us the estimate. I followed up with him and he said he would send it to us but never heard back.

I needed new grass for our front yard and a garden design for our newly renovated back patio. We decided to use a company that we were very familiar with and asked them to do the back patio as well as plant the grass in the front yard. We were asked to choose our planting designs and the types of flowers to use in the back. We choose all year round flowering plants as well as desert types to give the place an ethereal look. The landscaping company came the same afternoon, weeded the beds and began digging holes to place the plants. The team members were professional and courteous and did a fantastic job on the back gardens; they even added a small water feature as a gift to us. The front yard was equipped with a beautifully laid bed of grass and complimented by a few flowering plants along the walk way to the front door. We had a great service from this company and the fact that they even decided to do something we didn’t ask or even pay them extra for speaks volumes to their commitment for great service. I would recommend them in a heartbeat.

I was very pleased with the job Mission Valley Concrete did. I had stamped concrete done in my entire front yard and walkway. Tom came and gave a bid that was very acceptable. He said the job would take two days, and it took about 1.5 days. How often does that happen? They did it exactly as I wanted and were very good about not leaving a mess for me to deal with. I would definitely use them again!

Very pro guys, extremely prompt, great pricing, goes the extra mile. I made the right choice and am very happy, great work guys!!!

I hired Tom to make a concrete patio in my back yard after taking quotes from numerous contractors. Not only was his price very good, his work quality was top notch. I am very happy with the finished product. I would definitely hire him again for concrete work.

MVC did a great job at a great price on my patio! Tom outbid three other contractors, matched the color and texture perfectly, knocked it out in two days, and was super knowledgeable and professional.
I will refer MVC to all my friends and so should you.
Thanks MVC!

We used Mission Valley Concrete for construction of a new patio last fall. We also asked them to install two vinyl pergola kits we bought online, which they agreed to do in conjunction with the concrete work. We are very happy with the work that was performed and the way the project turned out. Tom McGee of MVC encountered several issues during the construction which threatened to blow the schedule and put us over budget, but he addressed these quickly and made sure we were aware of the issues and we agreed with their resolutions. You will be in good hands when hiring Mission Valley Concrete to do your concrete project.

I’d have liked to give the man an extra half-​star for his cheerful manner. But after making and appointment then changing it for a couple hours later I never heard from him again.

My HOA decided to put up a new fence and ordered me to remove some concrete in order to properly install the fence. I got 2 bids– both companies gave me pretty close estimates. Then I called Tom, he came over and just started pulling the bricks out of the dirt himself, when other companies told me it would be a tedious job to remove. Then he fixed other minor things the HOA complained about and said «you’re good to go, all done. I’m not charging you anything for this.» On top of that, he agreed to dispose the bricks for me. Seriously?
He leaves and 3 hours later my HOA informs me that more work is needed to be done so of course I called Tom to come back. I got 2 other bids for the new job, one was way higher than Tom’s and the other was very similar. I will always get more than one bid no matter what. I used to work for CNN as an investigative reporter and I am interested to see shady companies who will rip me off. Tom is a nice guy (which always helps when you’re working with someone), he’s fast and efficient, honest and fair. The other guys who came to look at the problem looked super stressed out which gave me the implication that the job was going to be a lot of work. Tom comes and puts everything at ease, takes initiative and just figures it out. That’s what I want– I want to hear solutions, not problems! And I HATE being overcharged– don’t companies know you will not get repeat business if you do this?
My house is a work in progress and there is always something that needs to be done. I would not hesitate to hire him again. Great company.

I actually contacted Tom from MV Concrete because of the Unilocal review that was posted in may. I figured, why not get a bid. He ended up being the guy I chose!
Tom was patient (I took a few months to get bids and make my final choice), clear and very professional. Once we started work, he was efficient, and he and his crew were great. My driveway looks amazing. And he even finished a day EARLY.
We ran into a couple of unforeseeable issues in the process (i have a 100 year old house), and he was great in helping figure out solutions.
I’d absolutely use him again, no question.

I recently collected bids to have a concrete foundation poured for a workshop in my backyard, a concrete patio, and footers for a deck. Tom from Mission Valley Concrete bid on the job and I decided to go with him because he was knowledgeable and his bid was 30% less than the highest bidder.
Tom was also really patient with all of my questions. I am building the workshop and deck myself but I do not have any experience with concrete so I had a million questions about the best way to do it and different options. After I gave Tom the ok to start he and his crew were on the job the next day and all the work was done three days later. They went to a lot of effort to get the job done quickly (including working on Saturday) because I wanted to start building ASAP. Best of all, they didn’t change the price when I increased the size of the foundation by a couple feet. I knew it wouldn’t be any harder for him to do but I think most contractors would have taken advantage of the scope change and added $$. I think just doing the additional work was a great sign of honesty.
Long story short, you can hire Mission Valley Concrete knowing you will get a fair price, high quality work, and they will finish the project on time.
