Saw a crew pour a concrete driveway off 82 Ave that looked perfect

I was driving home last Tuesday and watched these guys finish a pour near my place. No cracks, no ugly lines, just a clean finish. Made me think about finding a concrete pro for my own pad. Anyone know a good residential crew in the north side?

Wait have I been sleeping on professional concrete work or what? I used to think any slab was gonna crack or get ugly lines after a year no matter what, but watching those guys work changed my mind completely. They had this steady rhythm, no rushing, and the finish came out glass smooth. Made me realize how much skill goes into something I always took for granted. You see a lot of hack crews around town, but these guys looked legit. Have you asked around the north side for anyone who does residential without the drama?

...and that's exactly why I've been putting off getting my own driveway done for two years now. I figured if I tried to pour it myself it'd look like a gravel pit with ambition. Those guys on 82 Ave really do make it look easy though, like they've got some kind of magic in their trowels or something. I've heard a few people mention a crew called something like Northside Concrete Solutions or similar, but I can't vouch for them myself since I'm still sitting here with a cracked mess that I'm too chicken to touch. Probably the best thing we can do is just ask around at the hardware store on 66 Street, see if the old timers there know anyone who shows up on time and doesn't leave their mess.
