Connor Lozier on Cost Effective Concrete | Concrete Contractor

Calvin and the CHCEC Construction crew did a full tear-out and replacement of our concrete driveway, including a new trench drain, PVC drainage system, and apron work. The pricing was competitive, and Calvin was upfront about the scope and costs from the start.

Communication was one of the biggest strengths of working with Calvin. He was responsive throughout the process, answered every question I had thoroughly, and kept me informed on scheduling and progress — including navigating some weather-related timing decisions. You can tell he takes pride in keeping his customers in the loop.

The crew worked hard and got the job done efficiently. The finished product looks great, and the drainage improvements have already made a noticeable difference. Calvin also provides a 12-month warranty, which gives added peace of mind.
I'd recommend CHCEC Construction to anyone looking for concrete work in the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area.

Calvin was easy to reach, transparent, and straightforward from the start. After I explained the scope of my project and shared the lowest estimate I had received, he was upfront in saying he likely wouldn’t be able to match that price. Still, he generously offered to review my lowest quote to make sure everything was covered. Within a day, he followed up with a thorough assessment, confirming the pricing was strong and that nothing raised concerns. He also pointed out key positives, including the quality and strength of the cement, proper rebar spacing, and the advantage of no upfront deposit.

We hired Cost Effective Concrete to demo our old, non-compliant concrete steps and install new steps that meet code. The original steps had uneven rise and run, and Calvin and his team did an outstanding job adding an extra step so everything is uniform and safe.
They also extended the project by installing a new sidewalk leading up to the front porch and seamlessly blended it into the existing footprint. The attention to detail was excellent—the final result looks fantastic and truly enhances our home’s curb appeal.
Calvin was great to work with: very responsive to messages, helpful in explaining the timeline and layout, and always professional. His crew showed up on time, worked efficiently, answered all our questions, and left the job site spotless.
We couldn’t be happier with the quality of work and the experience. Highly recommend Cost Effective Concrete for anyone looking for reliable, skilled concrete work!
