I used Alpha Ex this spring 2021 for a small backyard addition foundation (excavation, concrete, backfill). The whole team (management, estimating, office admin, site crew) were very professional, courteous and responsive. Good quality work. I highly recommend Alpha Ex for foundation work.

I've recommended Alphaex to several friends since they completed two jobs for me. A small waterproof job, and a large septic tank and bed. They did an awesome job both times, quote was on par with the market, and they really went over and above on the project design which makes a huge difference on home investments.

Our experience with this company was fantastic. The crews they sent were extremely respectful and professional. The concrete is some of the best I've seen. Workmanship was great. On several occasions they went above and beyond our expectations. We were living at our residence during the excavation and pouring of the foundation. They swept our driveway each day (which we greatly appreciated) and when they dumped the gravel to fill in the basement and garage they had the thoughtfulness to create a path to our temporary stairs case and filled in the holes in our driveway just to make life easier for

Very happy we chose Alpha Ex for our garage project. From estimate, to excavation, to forming, and finishing Alpha Ex was professional, courteous, and most important, delivered a quality product. The floating slab was made with great accuracy making the construction of the garage so much easier. Highly recommended. Thanks for a job well done!!
