No shop yet, I paid for it back in January and contracted my neighbor, a supposed concrete guy to do the job and he just finished it in late May, I was trying to hurry him the last few weeks to get it done before the Builder started a 100' x 150' with a 3 man crew, the sad part is that the concrete is about 10" tall instead of 4" and its wavy and its about 2" out of square, it's a really sore subject around my house. Oh, it's only a 20' x 25' and takin 8 months to get here. The builder said it would be up by middle of August, FINALLY.
PS- If you're in the Woodward, Ok area, don't use Creative Concrete and Construction, he is definatley a newbie to his profession!:rant:

I had a problem with a concrete contractor also; fortunately he was not the guy next door. I live in an area that is experiencing a very very high growth rate. If it wasn’t for that growth rate this clown would be out of business. I almost fired him five minutes after he showed up to do the pour --- I should have!

WOW...if he paid for the concrete in his bid...he lost his butt! If u paid for the concrete...he screwed u badly on the fact that he can't even level any better than that. Hope it works out for you.

Its a little late now (just saw the post), but I know of a good rental store in Woodward & Enid where you could get about anything you need. I am originally from OKC, wife is from Sharon.
