Archies's concrete Design

Sheila and Pat came all the way to Salado to give us a very fair estimate, and then came back twice more and spent a couple of days cleaning, scoring, staining and sealing our three covered patios. They are very skilled and professional, in addition to being super nice to work with. They do great work, and we highly recommend them. More...

It's difficult to come up with a way to convey how happy we are with this company. They have an amazing work ethic. They started the job early for us at the last minute. The floors look amazing. If you are considering stained concrete for you home, this is the company to use. Simply amazing. More...

These guys are amazing! I had a contractor who didn't come out to finish neutralizing and sealing the concrete after performing the original stain on my new back patio. My wife and I were so frustrated that we contacted multiple companies today to see if they could come out and get it done. Archie's came out within a few hours, provided an estimate, and got started right away. The concrete is sealed (took about 4-5 coats instead of the 2 originally estimated) and looks great only 5 hours after I initially spoke with the company. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Please choose them for any of your concrete finish work. More...

Let me start off by saying I absolutely love my new floors! I was really unsure in the beginning about doing my entire house but once I got a quote and Archie's concrete design team talked with me about my colors I can choose from and how to care for my newly stained floor I was 100% onboard and excited they worked quickly and did everything right and explained everything that was being done to the floors each day they are awesome people and id recommend them to anyone!

It's hard to find an adjective that adequately conveys just how ugly the white 1980's tile covering our kitchen, hallways and dining room was. Suffice to say it majorly bummed us out on a daily basis for two years. We put off dealing with it, because the thought of having a crew of contractors take over our house to rip it up, see what was underneath and decide whether or not they could replace it with some other type of floor (or whether we'd be left in a house with major Herculaneum vibes) was terrifying. We finely decided to bite the bullet, and after reading reviews, called several concrete companies. Archie's was one of two that actually returned our calls, and Pat came over the following day. She was pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. She got back to us the next day with a very fair estimate, and a reasonable timeline and we decided to move forward. It was with great trepidation that we moved out all our belongings and taped plastic over our cabinets (What if they don't show up? What if they wreck our home?), but at 8:30 Monday morning, Pat and her crew of three were on our doorstep. I don't know what comes to mind when you hear demolition crew, but my free association involves scenes from Road Warrior. As such, it was great to meet the personable guys who came to wreck our floor. We chatted about kids, talked a bit about their plan of attack, and then they got to work. On each of the 5 days of the project, the same, super-nice crew showed up at 8:30am, worked a full day and made startling progress. They removed the abomination of a tile floor, exposed, cleaned and restored the beautiful saltillo hiding underneath, and polished and stained part of our slab. On the final day, the owner of the company did a walk through with us and corrected any minor details herself. The whole project was done exactly on time, and for only $150 over the estimated budget (expenses we were warned of and approved early on). It now feels like we live in a different, immeasurably more awesome house. This was the best possible contractor experience, and I wholeheartedly recommend Archie's Concrete Design. More...

After the Blanco flood we had carpet on our lower floor that had to be replaced. We were considering having the concrete stained and sealed instead of replacing the carpet. I found three companies on the internet. I called each of them for an estimate. One company didn't do what we wanted. Another set an appointment to give us an estimate but never showed up. Sheila Archie came to our house the evening that I called and spent well over an hour being sure she knew what we wanted. She was very thorough in explaining the process, what they could do, and how long it would take. We received 2 estimates the next day via email for options we had discussed. We were pleasantly surprised that the prices were slightly less than we thought they would be. I called and set up a time for the work to begin. Sheila and her crew arrived on time and went right to work. Sheila was very helpful in guiding us to a color that would cover up the rust stains on the 35-year-old slab. She kept us informed during the whole process which took a total of 4 days. We couldn't be more pleased with the result. The floor looks beautiful! We would recommend her highly to anyone wanting concrete stained and sealed. It is a great way to go when you have someone as professional as Sheila Archie to do the work. Thanks Sheila! Great job!!

Some people are amazingly talented. This is one that  is one of the best!...I have run into many corporate companies getting my head filled with all kinds of cool things that different ones can do. I just want to give props to Sheila (Archie Archie Concrete)! I had so much ideas buzzing that I couldn't settle on anything! Once I was in contact with this business, I realized that I was a bit overwhelmed and frustrated for not being able to decide on a design. In this company, Shelia (Archie Archie on facebook), personally handles your calls. She personally has a sit down with you and gets down to business with a definite down to earth, animal loving, tree loving personality. She helped yank my ideas out of my head and tweaked them adding hers and my personal touch. She just made it simple and helped takes my anxiety away. Ok. I think I used the word personal too much? Ha! There I go again! LoL. I still had jitters about the concrete work that was about to be done. I mean, I had only heard of this company through a great yelp review. And usually you never talk to the business owners. It's usually the secretaries and such. I was fearful that this was a one-man shop....I had a special job that needed to be done. Time flew by. The job was done. I walked in for the unveiling and was floored. Not only was it beautiful, but it was correct! She has a team of workers that she specially trained to help and daily assist with any of the work. It's like she pulled rabbits out of a hat or somethin. My concrete floors don't look like a regular floor; it looks like art. You can tell it was "hand done" with the help of some small machinery, and it definitely looks like she put her hands all over it. Some people are amazingly talented. This is one that  is one of the best! More...

We recently had the pleasure of working with Sheila and Pat from Archie's Concrete Design. We contracted them to remove our home's carpeted and tiled floors and staining the concrete, and without a doubt, they really came through for us. They were subjected to some very specific and very numerous questions about the process and took the time to answer each and every one to our satisfaction. They even went above and beyond when an unexpected condition arose at the house.I sincerely recommend them based on their attention to detail, their honesty and integrity, the speed at which they worked, the quality of the work performed, the cost for the services performed and the warranty provided on their workmanship.Thank you, Sheila and Pat, for a job well done!

After buying a 15 year old house that has not been updated, I found myself staring down the barrel of a bunch of updates that needed to be done.  So I decided to start at the bottom and work our way up.  I had stained concrete at my other house, and loved its durability and the rich color I had there.  So I decided to get rid of the 80's white floor tiles in the kitchen and powder room, linoleum in the laundry room, and shag carpet in the living room and 2 closets, and give it a try again. Sheila and her crew did a great job on my floors.  We chose a rich rust color for the floor.  The color is true to the sample I picked from.  She gave me the option to do an overlay (which is a 3/8" layer of concrete to put over the existing slab) or to stain the existing concrete as it was.  I chose to do the overlay in order to avoid being able to see the "ghost pattern" of where the tile had previously been laid.  The pros: 1) Love the color - it has so much more character than my old ratty carpet. It's really warm and inviting! 2) Easy to clean (just use vinegar and water for any spots and damp mop or dust mop for dust bunnies)3) Great consistent surface throughout my whole first floor to replace the groovy carpet and tile.  (It no longer looks like the Golden Girls live here!)4) Sooooo much better for my dogs - we have 2 hairy dogs who come and go through the dog door in the kitchen.  Cleanup is a breeze now, and they don't scratch it at all.The cons - maybe not so much cons, but stuff I wish I would have known:1) When it's really cold outside, it feels colder since we pulled up carpet.  (This will work in our favor in the summer, based on my experience from my prior house - it feels nice and cool in the hot months.)2) The process is stinky - the odor from the stain and sealant was pretty strong for about a week, like living in a magic marker factory.  We really aired out the house for about a week, and now the smell is not present at all when you walk in the house. If you cannot open windows to air out the house, you might want to plan to stay elsewhere, at least the first night until it's a little less funky.  We were able to escape to our upstairs and sleep with the windows open, so it was tolerable. 3) The process is also dusty.  Since we did the tile tear out, the use of a jackhammer was required.  This made for a LOT of dust, so I was glad that I covered everything with a plastic drop cloth and taped it off.  Even with that, I forgot to do the same for my kitchen cabinets, and so all my dishes and inside the cabinets had to be washed and wiped out.  ( Probably needs to be done anyway every now and then anyway, but I wished I would have though to tape them off).  4) You won't have access to that part of your house during the process, so get everything you need - what do you expect? You're basically staining and top coating the floor.  You won't be able to walk on it until it's dried overnight.  For us, this meant no access to the kitchen for a couple of days.  Had to eat at a restaurant, so maybe it wasn't a con for me since I usually have to cook and clean the kitchen.  All in all a good experience. Sheila & Pat were both professional and courteous.  They were very conscientious in their work, were competitively  priced, prompt and let me know what they were doing each step of the way.  Overall, the work product was great and met my expectations.  No disappointments here.  The color was very uniform due to the overlay (which allowed the stain to absorb evenly) and I have gotten lots of compliments on it. My before, during and after pictures are posted here and are labeled "Angie's floors". More...

We have only great things to say about Archie's Concrete Design.  We wanted our  entire 3100sf house redone in stained concrete.  After receiving several bids we choose Sheila and Pat do to the job.  They are BBB members which was a plus for us, whereas most other concrete contractors weren't.  They were very professional and personable.  At least one of the owners was on site at all times.  They hired out for the demolition and removal of the old flooring but did the actual cleaning, staining and scoring themselves.  Sheila is a perfectionist in her work and did not let a single flaw escape her.   Phone calls and emails were promptly returned.  I would use this company again and would highly recommend them to anyone.

Well after many years of deliberation we finally decided to rip up the carpet and have our floors completed.  You see we have a Rottie and a Dobie who love to play outside however steam cleaning the carpets was getting old and time consuming.  At our vets office I always admired their stained concrete floors.  I finally asked Dr. Salmon who did them and he stated Sheila Archie.  So I gave her a call.Sheila was great and came out to quote us a price.  We had previously gotten quotes and she was lower overall and she just clicked in personality.  Thus we hired her.  Our objective was a dark brown stain with score lines to imitate tiles.  We opted not to have an overlay completed as we loved the imperfections of the concrete.  We didn't want a perfectly smooth or consistent color.  We wanted more of a rustic look with frog skeltons, moths and leaf prints in our original concrete to bring charm to our house.We were guided through the process in which how the colors were applied and the overlay.  We originally wanted a more expensive overlay however Sheila suggested a cheaper alternative which I was impressed that she'd leave money on the table instead of trying to upsell.  We opted to completed seal our house in plastic wrap as to cut down on the concrete dust.  Sheila was amazed at the length that we went through but we wanted to make sure that it was properly sealed.  After pulling up the carpet in our house she and her crew scrubbed the floor with a scrubbing machine and in hard to reach areas, wire brushes on their hands and knees.  It was a painstaking process but it looked great.  Then they chalked up the area, using my pattern layout I created in Illustrator, to indicate the tile size and scored areas.  After this was completed they washed the floors again and let them dry.  After she applied the black acid stain to get to the color we desired.  Because we opted not have have an overlay we had color variation on our slab due to the moisture previously on the slab when the hosue was built.  We finally got the color that we wanted and proceeded to put down the acrylic top to the it and it was gorgeous.  Now our home's slab was pourous in some areas that required more coats than normal and cost us a bit extra however it was well worth it.  I can't blame Sheila for the upcost of the sealant because our slab was a bit weird.  However it came out beautiful and I've attached photos.I recommend Sheila to all of my friends and love it.  Matter of fact I recommended her to a friend even before I actually completed my own house.  Great job Sheila!

We can't say enough good things are Archie's Concrete Design.  Four years ago this team stained and sealed our 1500 sq ft home.  Due to chemical allergies, they had to use a water base stain and a sealant and wax that did not have odor.  We couldn't be more pleased.  We have asked them back to do some touch up (where our grandkids have dragged metal objects around).  We clean it with vinegar and water twice a month and it looks like new.  Kudo for a job well done - and just keeps on giving!
