Metro-City Concrete Services

Our old driveway was crumbling and pooling water toward the garage. The crew recommended a broom finish with a medium texture, proper control joints, and a compacted 20 mm road crush base. They set a 1% slope away from the house and used rebar on a tight grid. Excavation to pour happened in one day because the weather cooperated, and they reminded us: no vehicle traffic for at least two weeks. Quote was free, no deposit, and payment after completion. Clean, safe, organised work throughout Argyll, Edmonton. Highly recommend.

We chose an Ashlar Slate stamped driveway to freshen our Mill Woods frontage. They helped us pick an integral colour and used antiquing release for depth. Joints were saw cut neatly, and they sealed with EX25 medium gloss for a rich finish. The project lead kept us updated by text, arrived when promised, and there was no Sunday surcharge when they pushed to finish before a cold snap. Clear quote, valid 30 days, and balance only after completion. Beautiful, durable result.

Our grey exposed aggregate driveway in Capilano turned out fantastic. They offered 10 mm and 14 mm options; we picked 14 mm for the texture. The surface retarder exposure was even, then they applied a medium gloss sealer that looks shiny without feeling slick. We asked for an anti-slip additive and they obliged. Site protection, caution tape, tidy cleanup—everything felt professional. They explained the 1-year crack coverage on new pours and answered every question promptly by email.

We wanted a stamped patio for our back garden in Gold Bar. They suggested Cottage Slate, integral colour from the plant, and antiquing release for contrast. The crew formed everything crisply, edged cleanly, and cut joints after. They’ll return to seal with EX25 medium gloss once cured. Communication was excellent—calls and texts answered within a business day—and there was no deposit up front. Family gatherings already feel better on this patio.

We love our brown exposed aggregate patio in Bonnie Doon. The team walked us through grey versus brown finishes and aggregate size; we chose a warm brown that matches our fence. The exposure was uniform, edges are tidy, and the “shiny” medium gloss sealer really makes it pop. They reminded us to reseal as needed based on wear and weather—no hard schedule. Price matched the written quote and they left the yard clean.

Our plain broom-finish patio is exactly what we needed—simple, safe, and easy to shovel. They used a medium broom texture, finished the edging, and set clean tooled joints. Thickness and reinforcement were appropriate for the area, and they recommended optional sealing after cure. They started about three weeks after the quote, as discussed, and took care of protection with poly sheeting and caution tape. Straight answers, fair price, and careful cleanup in our Idylwylde yard.

We needed a new sidewalk along a tight side yard in Kenilworth. Access was tricky, but they worked by hand and with a mini skid steer without disturbing our fence. They set joints every five feet, used a medium broom finish for grip, and protected the siding with poly. The site supervisor checked alignment and drainage with us before the pour. Free quote, quick responses by text, and a tidy result that looks like it’s always been there.

We added a decorative stamped walkway from the driveway to the porch in Ritchie. Fieldstone pattern, integral colour, and saw-cut joints keep it looking natural yet crisp. The team arrived on time, set forms carefully around our beds, and kept everything roped off until it cured. They coordinated a short after-hours window at no surcharge so we could access the front door—very considerate. Worth every dollar, and the finish elevates our curb appeal.

Our detached garage slab in Avonmore was replaced after frost damage. They used 32 MPa concrete, rebar on a 19-inch grid, and set a 1% slope toward the overhead door so meltwater drains out. The base was compact and the finish smooth but not slippery. They explained care instructions and the crack warranty for new pours. Payment after completion by e-transfer was convenient. The floor feels solid and the garage finally stays dry.

We had a basement slab replacement during a renovation in Ottewell. They placed 20 mm washed rock, a poly vapour barrier, and 10 mm rebar before pouring. The site supervisor coordinated around plumbing penetrations and other trades without drama. No FF/FL numbers promised—just a flat, clean surface that passed our contractor’s straightedge test. They kept dust down, communicated by email daily, and stuck to the written quote. Excellent workmanship and a stress-free experience.

We needed a hot tub pad in our back yard in King Edward Park. The team suggested a reinforced concrete pad sized precisely to our tub and service clearances. They handled access, protected the lawn, and left a tidy, level surface with clean edges ready for delivery. Turnaround matched their 2–3 week estimate, and they stood by their 30-day written quote. Friendly, safety-minded crew who answered texts promptly and respected our property.

We hired them for a shop slab in a small commercial unit near Whyte Avenue. They recommended 35 MPa concrete for our light industrial use and coordinated timing around our equipment move. The pour was well organised, with clear safety controls and taped-off zones. No deposit was requested; payment after substantial completion felt fair. The slab is solid, flat, and easy to keep clean. Professional from first site visit to final walkthrough.

Our sloped yard in Forest Heights needed a concrete retaining wall. They proposed a footing and wall solution with a board-form finish that looks architectural, not utilitarian. When engineering and permits were required, they handled the drawings and permit process on request without overpromising timelines. The wall is straight, true, and beautifully finished. Communication was steady by phone and email, and the job site stayed neat. We’re thrilled with the stability and look.

We upgraded our front landscape with extruded concrete curbing in Pleasantview. The lines are smooth, the corners are tight, and the finish ties the beds together. They confirmed municipal requirements and executed cleanly without leaving ruts on the lawn. The quote was clear, valid for 30 days, and they didn’t push extras we didn’t need. Quick responses within a business day and careful cleanup made this a very easy project.

We hired them to cut an egress window opening in our basement in Holyrood. The team measured carefully, saw-cut the opening with clean edges, and disposed of the concrete safely. They protected the space, kept slurry contained, and coordinated with our window installer. Communication was excellent—texts answered quickly, and the project lead kept us informed of each step. Fast turnaround, fair price, and a neat finish we could frame right away.

We finished our garage with an epoxy floor coating in Strathcona. From prep to final coat, the work was meticulous. The floor now looks bright and uniform, and oil drips wipe up easily. They scheduled around our availability, even doing a short evening session at no extra charge. The written quote matched the invoice, and payment after completion was straightforward. It’s transformed the garage into a clean, usable space we’re proud of.
