Smart View Construction

If there were ten stars I would give them to Anibal and his Smart View crew. Anibal immediately responded to my call for an estimate on the concrete slab foundation and surrounding concrete walkways along with grading and utility trenching needed for the ADU I was building in my backyard. He answered my many questions and gave me a detailed estimate that was extremely reasonable. I interviewed six other contractors for this job and went with Anibal because of his responsive communication, excellent reviews, familiarity with working with the city in the inspection process and fair price. This was the slab foundation of our ADU, the critical beginning of the project after all, and I wanted the very best people doing this work. Hands down, I made the right choice! When Anibal says he and his crew will show up, they are there and right on time. I've worked with several contractors on this project and Anibal gets first place for reliability and punctuality, always being there when he says he or his crew will. They work quickly but there is no compromise in quality. They do fast, efficient, high quality work in all they do. They clean up after themselves and keep the work site free of debris. Anibal is a good, hands-on leader with tremendous respect for his team. They did an outstanding job on our concrete foundation and walkways. You can't go wrong with Smart View. I am appreciative of their awesome work and recommend them every chance I have!

Anibal, the owner of Smart View Concrete, interpreted my drawings and worked with me to improve upon my design. Anibal has a great design sense! His hard working crew diligently constructed a complex retaining wall with lighted stairs, front patio area, 3-car driveway, and side yard slab. And did so in a beautifully detailed manner… and we a very picky! We used Sierra colored concrete with a recommended .3 TopCast finish. Anibal supervised every phase and showed up as agreed, so we always knew what to expect and could prepare. The process of demolition and construction is inherently a dirty job and our job was large, Anibal’s crew kept the job site as tidy as possible and were respectful of our property as well as our neighbors. Anibal structured a detailed estimate that translated into a contract outlining progress payments that was extremely fair. We couldn’t be happier of all aspects of the job, the professionalism of the process and the end result. We get compliments every time we’re outside doing yard work on how nice our hardscape looks from passer’s by. We’re extremely confident in recommending Smart View Concrete and plan to use them for installing our backyard hardscape soon.

We had a truly excellent experience hiring Smart View Construction for a full backyard overhaul that took about six months from beginning to end. Due to the topography of our backcountry North County property, this was a relatively complicated project that included constructing retaining walls, adding many tons of fill, and also crafting several patios and sets of steps. Also included in our project was the installation of built-in lighting and the construction of a BBQ island. Anibal is exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly, and he made thoughtful recommendations throughout the process as the project evolved. We are absolutely thrilled with the result. I highly recommend considering Smart View for any project involving concrete, particularly if it is a complex project that requires a creative eye. A quick edit several months after posting my initial review: we keep getting compliments on our backyard, especially from other contractors who can immediately see the complexity of the job and the quality of Anibal's craftsmanship.

I am so glad that I hired Anibal and Smart View Construction for our back yard project. The work was excellent, when I added the pergola after the concrete work was done, my buddy commented that the measurements we way more precise than what he is used to dealing with when it comes to concrete contractors. Through the process, Anibal was communicative and went above and beyond, even sticking to the original contract when unexpected costs and issues came up. Other companies have tried to renegotiate with me in the past, but Anibal took care of the extra costs himself and never complained. The result, as you can see from the pictures, is beautiful. I highly recommend Smart View Construction and will personally used them again in the future.

Anibal and his crew from Smart View Construction were so great to work with. We had them do our entire foundation including footings, stem walls, driveway, and sidewalk. The quality of their work was excellent. The design of my project had a lot of unique challenges and Anibal coordinated with my architect, my other subs, and the city inspector to make sure the job was done right. The project finished on time and on budget. His knowledge and experience is rarely found in today's construction industry so I was very fortunate to have him work on our project. One of the best contractors we've ever hired and I would recommend Smart View Construction to anyone looking for concrete work.
