Okay, friends. Let’s get neighborly. 👇

I want to introduce you to Derek and Levi, the co-owners of Coulee Concrete Repair. These two run their business the way things used to be done—built on family values, an old-fashioned work ethic, and treating every customer like a neighbor.

What I love most is how straightforward they are. No gimmicks, no hidden costs—just honest quoting and work that speaks for itself. And it’s not just me saying that… their reviews are filled with people praising their professionalism, reliability, and the kind of craftsmanship you can trust.

If you’ve got uneven sidewalks, cracked driveways, or sinking slabs, Derek and Levi are the guys to call. They’ll get it done right—the first time.
