  In 2023, we obtained concrete-work estimates due to problems with frost heave & cracks in our driveway and porch steps. Although Ludemann Construction LLC had the highest bid, we went with them because of their five-year-workmanship warranty and the owner’s personal assurances.
  
  Ludemann Construction completed the concrete work in early September 2023. Unfortunately, problems with the driveway presented immediately, with one section significantly discolored & varied in texture.
  
  More problems presented within the first month—pitting & voids covered the entire driveway! When we notified the owner, he told us the issues were nothing to worry about. He texted, “one way or another you are in good hands. If we have to change some concrete in the Spring even if [concrete supplier] does not give us new material, I will still take care of you. . . One thing I promise you is that you have my word. I will see this through till the end.”
  
  In early 2024, we experienced still more problems when frost heave—the main reason for replacing the driveway—occurred. The owner again assured us he would take care of everything in the spring.
  
  After a year of being told Ludemann Construction would take care of the driveway problems, they pivoted. They said they considered the driveway “acceptable” despite the previously-acknowledged issues, but would replace the driveway again—if we paid an additional $12,500! Alternatively, they offered a payment of $1,500 as a “professional courtesy”—provided we agree to refrain from posting negative reviews regarding this job. We refused both in a 24 September 2024 letter.
  
  We waited 90+ days after emailing said letter to provide Ludemann Construction the opportunity to honor their warranty. As they have not done so, we provide this review in hopes others will not undergo the same costly experience we have.
  
  We are left with a stained & pitted driveway—which still exhibits the frost heave the costly driveway replacement was supposed to correct.

  Ludemann Construction has done work for me for almost 20 years. From shelves in my garage to a new roof, siding, gutters, and windows, both basement and home windows on my home. Jeremy even helped me deal with my insurance company when declined my claim for new siding. With his help, i got my siding. They have completely designed and finished a basement for one friend and numerous jobs for other friends and neighbor's. They have always done exceptional work and i have heard nothing but praise from friends and neighbors that they have done work for. Workers are always polite, clean, and on time. AND they clean up after themselves after the job is done. Wouldn't consider anyone else.
