VLA Grading LLC - Concrete Flatwork

We were looking for a company to remove our asphalt driveway, walkway and replace with concrete. There were drainage issues, old basket ball hoop footing needed removal and we wanted to make the driveway as wide as possible with the existing culvert pipe. VLA Grading exceeded all our requirements! Competitive pricing, and professional service! Easy to work with, friendly and responsive to our needs and concerns. Removed, poured, backfilled and seeded in two days. We highly recommended this company!! Dan B - Bobolink Ave Milwaukee

VLA just completed a patio installation in our backyard. We had an existing stand-alone cement slab for our shed and wanted to incorporate that slab into a larger patio. VLA wrapped our shed slab with 250+ square feet of beautiful patio space. They paid attention to every little detail to make our vision become a reality. Great work and dependable service!

Saul and his team made quick work fixing my crooked front walk and adding a patio to my backyard last month. Saul came back himself to make sure everything was perfect. I’m very happy with the work that was done. I definitely recommend VLA to anyone looking to have concrete work done. Consuelo also was very quick to respond and pleasant to work with on scheduling and when I needed questions answered.

Our patio was original to the home (1968), cracked, and sinking/sloping toward the foundation by about 4 inches. We knew we needed more than just concrete, we needed someone who could fix a bigger problem. We had no recommendations and didnt know who to call. By chance, I saw a VLA truck driving down the street. VLA has "grading" in the name and a google search showed a bunch of 5 star reviews, so with trepidation we took a chance. I am SO glad we called VLA. From the start they were friendly and professional. Saul came out and we made a few design changes (widened a sidewalk, curved some edges) from the original patio. The estimate was prompt and very reasonable. Because it was early spring the job had about a 5 week lead time, and that date never changed. We had good communication with Consuelo leading up to the start date. Saul and his men worked efficiently. This review is a little late, but if I'm remembering correctly, they were finished in 2.5 days - tear out, grading, pouring and clean up. And while our new patio is beautifuly done, and I know the grading is right because our sump pump runs so much less even this super rainy summer (!), one of the things that impressed me most was the care Saul took in making our whole back patio nicer than before. Saul suggested burying two of our gutters under the new sidewalk instead of having them drain onto it - which was great. The guys took so much care while working around our flower beds and replaced about 40 decorative rocks neatly all along the new patio. And they even saved the dirt they took from the two flower beds they removed and disposed of for us and put down grass seed in the bare spots!! I only wish I had before pics to show the change. Honestly one of the best contracting experiences I've ever had - VLA exceeded all of my expectations.

Wow! I am so impressed with VLA! We hired them to redo our asphalt driveway into concrete and add retaining walls. Also redo our back patio, add retaining walls. They did SUCH a good job. From the start, Consuelo the administrative assistant always kept me in the loop. Then Saul came over to assess the scope of work. Then they got started pretty quickly and worked really fast! They are such professionals, know what they are doing and take pride in their work. I wish they did more services because I’d hire them for any home improvement project. I’m just in love with how they did the driveway! Made such a huge difference! Hire them! 🥰
