Elite Concrete

Elite did a great job. The onsite staff were excellant. They did not rush and made sure the job was done right. I recommend that you consider using Elite for concrete jobs.

We have dealt with Elite Concrete in 2005 for our previous home in Thornhill and chose them again without hesitation for our home in Ajax. We wanted to have a decorative concrete patio for the front of our home and requested Raffy and Marcelo to help us with our backyard which was uneven and unsightly. The Elite team has helped us radically change the look of our home, in a very positive way.
Raffy and Marcelo have always been friendly, dependeable and punctual. Leo and the rest of the team are equally reliable and boy! they work real hard! While they working on the front patio, I accidentally left the front door of my home unlocked and headed out to the office. If it was any one else I was dealing with, I would have returned straight home, but in this instance I trusted them all completely.
Their final product deserves high praise. If I ever move to a third home, Raffy and Marcelo, we may be calling on your team again!

Elite was one of the many companies that we received quotes from. They were the most expensive but due to the presentation of the quote from Raffi, the many positive references provided online and by Elite, we felt confident that they would do the best job.

The job from start to finish took a long time, but much of that was due to weather. Every time anyone from Elite was on the job site at our house, they were professional, polite and accommodating.

In the end, we are extremely happy with the work that they di and would have no trouble recommending them.

We've had Elite do several different projects for us this year, and they are extremely timely and professional in their execution. Communication is thorough and extremely prompt, and the crew know their craft. The porch we had poured was to replace a crumbling one in the front of the house and is going to be clad in natural stone to mimic the classic styles seen in the neighborhood, and to render the front of the house classic and well-kept. Although it was just the foundational piece and will never be seen, care was taken to ensure that it was constructed properly and in a way that it will be solid for years to come.
We'll recommend Elite to anyone needing beautiful, quality concrete work.

Outstanding craftmanship, customer service and value. Not only were we impressed by the final result, the Elite team will annually check our driveway for wear and tear. And, people stop me while I am cutting the lawn to ask who did our driveway. Lots of referrals!

We chose Elite Designed Concrete to remove our old cracked garage floor and install a new one. Raffy and Marcelo were great to work with and the crews were very polite and worked hard. Raffy is not satisfied till job is done perfectly. After completion of the garage floor, couple of spots were slightly uneven (1-5mm). Instead of fixing them, Raffy asked his crew to break the whole floor and re-cement without any hesitation. The new floor is perfect. I recommend Elite Desined Concrete Inc to anyone.
Raffy, thank you and your crew for the job well done.

After reading all of the positive reviews here on HomeStars we contacted Elite Designed Concrete Inc. (via email) expecting a reply in a couple of days. We received a response in less than two hours!
Raffy replied looking to setup a convenient time for us to meet and discuss our project. The project involved repairing, washing and sealing some existing concrete work and some additions, including two raised teardrop planters, complete parging around the base of the house and a redesigned exterior patio with two half walls on either side and an additional walkway. Raffy provided an on-the-spot written estimate fully itemizing each component of the project. We hired Elite a few short days later. Other competitors were sketchy with their detailed breakdowns and some, including the original contractor who we hired for our existing work some years ago, did not even bother to return our email.

We were looking forward to having our project completed by the start of summer, but unfortunately Mother Nature had other ideas. Elite actually issued a formal letter to all of their clients-in waiting apologizing for the delay and thanking us for our continued patience – like how much more customer focused can you get ? This company lost something in the neighbourhood of 34 business days to rain in their already relatively short season and were looking at the situation from the customer’s standpoint!

We finally got some co-operation with the weather and were introduced to Marcelo, who arranged to meet us at our convenience to mark all the areas and angles of the project as well as selecting colour and pattern schemes. Marcelo kept us up-to-date on every aspect of the project, including when the crew would be onsite and what they would be doing. It was a pleasure seeing the project we had planned slowly materialize work day after work day. This is not to say everything went 100%; like all projects, there were issues that arose, but it is through these issues that the professionalism and integrity of both Raffy & Marcelo really shined. The two half walls we wanted incorporated into the project presented a challenge as we did not want the standard variety patterned stamp. The solution: Elite purchased a new stamp that was exactly what we were looking for. It became all too obvious that this company is special, they really strive not only to ensure complete customer satisfaction, they want to exceed it and will go out of their way to achieve it. I think Raffy must sleep with his Blackberry, as on one occasion I was sending emails to confirm some finishing items at about 10:15pm expecting an update the next day or so, and his response come in at 11:09pm!

My wife and I are already looking for other projects where we can work with them again. It has truly been a pleasure dealing with Raffy, Marcelo and the Elite Designed Concrete team.

Rafi and Marcelo have built a business that is reliable and trustworthy, and most importantly performs amazing work! We are completely impressed with the level of professionalism of each and every employee that works with this company and with their willingness to make everything perfect to our, the customers, specifications. They work well as a team, and thus work quickly and efficiently to get the project complete as soon as possible. It was a very comfortable situation having this organization work at my house for a number of days to create our dream backyard oasis; they were like family, only much more professional! I would hire them again and have already referred them to friends and family! Excellent job exceeding our expectations! 10 stars!

A few years ago Elite Designed Concrete completed a decorative concrete walkway for the front of our home. Just wanted to write a quick note to say it still looks great we have had lots of compliments and inquiries from people visiting our home from friends family neighbours and even a couple of contrators who have performed other work at our home. The entire experiance was great from the initial call to the completion of the work. We highly recommend anyone who wants decorative concrete to call Elite. They are witout a doubt the best contractor we have worked with over the years.

Thanks again Elite and keep up the great work!

This company is not only talented in what they do, they are great communicators answering questions immediately. The end result of the designed concrete was phenomenal. Everything promised was delivered in a timely manner. Their work was beautiful. After the construction was completed, there was as much concern about clean up, restoring the original look of gardens and seeding as there was about the concrete work. And to top it off, the price was very reasonable for the work that was done! This is a refreshingly great company.
