Our Services
Concrete Driveways
Your home’s entrance matters. It’s not just about functionality; it’s about beauty and that welcoming feeling when you arrive after a long day. We specialize in both new concrete paving and driveway repairs. Our secret? The substrate we use lasts longer than other materials, making it a contractor favorite. Let’s break it down:
- New Paving: Transform your property with a fresh concrete driveway. It’s like giving your home a stylish makeover. 🏡
- Driveway Repairs: Got cracks, tree roots causing trouble, or uneven surfaces? We’ve got you covered. Our team will fix it up, so your driveway looks as good as new. 🛠️
- Wire Mesh vs. Rebar: If your entrance was built using wire mesh (instead of sturdy rebar), it might start crumbling over time. Don’t worry—we’ll replace it with top-quality concrete, graded to channel water away properly. 🌧️
Concrete Patio
Patios Built to Last: Concrete laughs at weather tantrums. Rain, sun, snow—it takes it all. No joints for sneaky weeds to pop up (unlike those pesky paving stones). And forget about wood warping or rotting. Concrete’s got your back! 🌧️☀️
Craftsmanship matters. Pros create patios that stand the test of time. Patio installation expertise ensures a long-lasting, attractive structure. And guess what? Hiring professionals won’t break the bank. You get quality workmanship, durability, and satisfaction—all without maxing out your credit card. 💰
But it’s not just about the surface. Pros make sure your patio is level (no rollercoaster rides here!) and properly sanded to fend off water penetration and fractures.
Concrete Staining
Concrete floors can be transformed using a technique called staining. Whether you’re sprucing up your home or upgrading a commercial space, stained concrete floors offer a world of possibilities.
Concrete stains penetrate deep into the material. This means the color won’t fade over time. Unlike paint or coatings that can flake off, stained concrete maintains its vibrant hue for the long haul.
Add a touch of warmth or coolness to your space with soft, understated hues. Want to make a statement? Go big with eye-catching patterns or geometric shapes. 🎨
Stained concrete is a cost-effective way to elevate your interior design. You don’t need a hefty budget to achieve a polished and unique look. Sometimes, simplicity reigns supreme—a single stain color that complements your decor can be just as impactful as a rainbow of hues.
Concrete Repair
Whether it’s your driveway, patio, or walkway, repairing concrete is a smart move.
Here are the basics:
- Full-Depth Repair: We cut out the damaged section, replace the reinforcing steel, and lay fresh concrete. Use this method for serious cases—when the whole slab needs some TLC.
- Partial Depth Repair: Here, we trim around the damaged area (without touching the steel), remove the bad concrete, and then patch it up with a repair mortar. Ideal for smaller issues that don’t require major surgery.
- Overlays: This method can cover surface problems, but only if we prep the surface well. Opt for overlays when you want a quick fix.
A little bit of TLC goes a long way. Your concrete will thank you! 🛠️🏢
Concrete Slab
Concrete slabs serve many purposes, from holding patio furniture to bearing the weight of semi-trailer trucks. The construction of these slabs involves several important factors that need to be considered even before the concrete is poured.
Pouring a slab requires careful planning 📝. All the steps in creating a high-quality slab have to be completed quickly, before the concrete sets.
Another crucial aspect is preparing the base or subgrade. It needs to be compacted properly to provide a firm and stable foundation for the slab. If this step is overlooked, the slab can settle or crack, especially if placed on poor soil or subjected to heavy traffic 🚚.
The construction of concrete slabs involves a lot of planning and precision. It’s a testament to the precision and efficiency of modern construction techniques 👷♂️.
Concrete Floor
Concrete floors are a fantastic choice for any home or business, thanks to their low maintenance, durability, and endless customization options. You can stain them nearly any color, give them a variety of textures and finishes, or polish them to a sleek, high-gloss shine. Plus, concrete is long-lasting and environmentally friendly, making it one of the most sustainable flooring options available.
You can use concrete in any room of your home. It’s great for areas with heavy foot traffic, food and drink spills, and moisture, like foyers, hallways, bathrooms, and kitchen floors. And because concrete can adapt to any design style — from traditional to ultra-modern — it’s a great choice for living rooms, great rooms, and finished basements.
But the use of concrete isn’t limited to indoors. More and more homeowners and businesses are using concrete to create a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces. Concrete is one of the few materials that can be used for indoor and outdoor slabs, blurring the boundaries and creating a unified look. So, whether you’re inside or outside, you can enjoy the benefits of concrete flooring. 🏠🌳
Concrete Resurfacing
Concrete resurfacing is a fantastic way to breathe new life into your home or yard. It’s like giving your concrete a makeover! 🏡✨ Whether you’re looking to spruce up your patio or fix cracks in your driveway, resurfacing is a great solution.
There are several concrete issues that resurfacing can fix. Small cracks that don’t affect the concrete’s structural integrity, spalling or pitting where the top surface of the concrete flakes away, and minor unevenness in the concrete that needs leveling can all be addressed with resurfacing.
When done correctly, a resurfaced overlay should last a lifetime, even under heavy foot or vehicle traffic. 🚗💨

Concrete Garage Floor
Remember the days when garages were just dusty storage spaces for cars? Well, those days are long gone! 🚗💨 Now, garages are becoming an important part of our homes. They’re not just for parking cars anymore. They’re turning into organized workshops, showrooms, and even extensions of our living spaces. And guess what? The transformation doesn’t stop there. The concrete floors in garages are getting a makeover too! 🎨
This trend of customizing garages started in the Southwest, where the lovely weather made garages a great place to hang out. But thanks to some clever heating and cooling solutions, garages all over the U.S. are now comfortable spaces to use year-round. 🌞❄️
As garages became more like living spaces, people started wanting them to be cleaner and more organized. So, homeowners started coating their garage floors to make them look as good as the rest of their home. 🏡
Now, your garage floor can be a beautiful part of your home too! 😃
Concrete Polishing
Say hello to polished concrete, the ultimate no-wax flooring solution! With the right equipment and a bit of know-how, concrete can be transformed into a shiny, high-gloss surface that’s as tough as it is beautiful. It’s no wonder that everyone from homeowners to big-box stores are falling in love with these smooth, lustrous floors. 💖
But the appeal of polished concrete isn’t just skin-deep. This flooring option offers a competitive edge over other types of floor coverings. Not only does it deliver great value, but it also holds its own in the looks department. That’s right, polished concrete isn’t just practical—it’s pretty too! 🌟
The best part? Almost any concrete floor, old or new, can be polished up to look like a million bucks. All it takes is a little preparation. And because polishing concrete is a step-by-step process, you get to choose just how shiny you want your floor to be. From a soft satin sheen to a high-gloss finish, the choice is yours. 🌈
So, if you’re looking for a versatile flooring material that’s as durable as it is dazzling, consider polished concrete. It’s the perfect blend of function and fashion for all kinds of spaces.
Concrete Retaining Wall
Concrete walls are becoming the go-to choice for homeowners. Unlike wood, concrete doesn’t warp or rot, it’s low maintenance, and it stands up to fire and strong winds. Plus, concrete walls offer a world of design possibilities. You can add patterns, textures, landscaping plants, or even custom artwork. 🎨
But to get a top-notch concrete wall, you’ll need a top-notch contractor. An experienced contractor will make sure your wall is built right, with no waves or bulges. They’ll also handle important details like waterproofing and drainage. Without proper waterproofing, moisture could discolor the wall. And without proper drainage, pressure could build up behind the wall and make it lean. 😱
Fixing these issues can be expensive and might even mean tearing down the wall and starting over. So, to avoid these problems, make sure you hire a contractor with a proven track record in building concrete retaining walls. It’s an investment in peace of mind. 😊
Decorative Concrete
We’re seeing a hot new trend in home design: decorative concrete! It’s popping up everywhere, from patios and floors to entryways, countertops, and pool decks. Whether it’s a sprawling new home with an elaborate concrete driveway or a budget-friendly one-room remodel with a stunning stained concrete floor, the appeal of decorative concrete is growing! 🎉
But while decorative concrete is designed to dazzle, it should never distract. To maximize curb appeal and resale value, it’s important to keep your concrete projects in harmony with your home’s color scheme, historical character, and surroundings. 🏡
Homeowners, builders, and designers today recognize the value of using concrete in their designs. Decorative concrete can transform traditional gray concrete into warm brown floors or patios that look like expensive slate. 🌟
Thanks to advancements in concrete tools, stains, dyes, textures, and patterns, concrete has become the most versatile, durable, and cost-effective material on the market.
Concrete Overlay
Even the best concrete can have its flaws. Cracks, discoloration, and pop-outs can make your concrete look less than perfect. And while repairs can help, they can sometimes be just as noticeable as the flaws they’re meant to fix. That’s why many homeowners think they have to rip out and replace their unsightly concrete. But if the concrete is in good condition otherwise, there’s a more economical alternative: decorative overlays. 🎉
Decorative overlays can be colored, polished for a reflective sheen, or customized with stencils and stamps. The options are practically endless!
So, if you’re looking to improve the look of your concrete without breaking the bank, consider a decorative overlay.

Concrete Foundation
The foundation of a house supports the structure, carries the weight of the building and everything in it, and transfers that weight to the ground. Plus, it levels and stabilizes the house, making sure doors and windows work properly and floors are even. 🏠
One popular type of foundation is the concrete slab foundation, also known as a slab-on-grade foundation. This involves pouring a thick slab of concrete directly on the ground to create a smooth, level base for the structure. It’s a cost-effective option because it requires minimal digging and filling. Plus, it’s quick to install and, when done right, can last for decades. 💪
But here’s the thing: the average U.S. home weighs 200 tons. That’s a lot of weight! So, choosing the right foundation is a crucial part of building a house. The foundation has to be strong enough to support the weight of the house and withstand things like water damage, flooding, termites, and other natural forces.
So, how do you choose the right type of foundation? It depends on a few things, like the design of the house, the local climate, and the slope of the land. But don’t worry, we’re here to help you make the right choice. After all, we’re not just building houses—we’re building homes. 🏡💖
Concrete Walkway
Concrete walkways and garden paths are more than just practical; they can be beautiful and creative too! Walkways can bring a touch of luxurious mid-century modern style to your front yard and garden, giving them character and charm.
But a concrete walkway isn’t just about function; it can be a decorative feature too. It doesn’t have to be simple and straight. Instead, it can weave a path of elegant simplicity through your yard, providing a warm welcome to family and friends. 🚶♀️🚶
So, whether you’re looking for a pathway to your front door, a stylish sidewalk or garden path that complements your yard’s layout, or a safe and affordable walkway to your pool deck or patio, we’re here to help. We’ve got the skills, the tools, and the creativity to create the perfect concrete walkway for your home.
Concrete Removal
Are you thinking about tearing down a concrete patio, redoing a concrete driveway, or completely overhauling a concrete basement floor? You might be surprised to find out that the demolition work could be more affordable than you think. At some point, most homeowners will need to remove concrete. But let’s be clear, removing concrete slabs can be a complex, time-consuming, and risky task for those who aren’t experienced in DIY home renovations. 🏠🔨
Sure, you could tackle a small concrete removal project on your own. But you’ll need the right tools, like a sledgehammer and jackhammer. Renting these can start around $55 and can go up to over $300, depending on what tools you choose and how long you need them. Plus, you’ll need to be able to haul away the debris and dispose of it properly. It’s hard work and can lead to injuries if you’re not careful. 😓
That’s why we always recommend leaving concrete removal projects to professionals, especially if you’re not trained to use heavy machinery. We believe that most homeowners should work with a professional concrete company, no matter the size of the project. It’s safer, it’s easier, and it can save you a lot of time and hassle. So why not let us handle the heavy lifting? We’re here to help! 💪
Concrete Pool Decks
When it comes to choosing your pool deck, there’s a lot to consider. You want something that fits your design vision, but also something that’s cost-effective. While there are many options out there, concrete has some advantages that other materials can’t match.
One important factor to consider is slip resistance. Pool decks can get wet and slippery, so good traction is a must. Most materials can become slippery when wet, but there are several ways to make concrete surfaces less slippery without sacrificing their appearance. These include using broomed or exposed aggregate finishes, applying a textured overlay, or mixing a clear plastic grit into the sealer before it’s applied.
Pool decks also need to withstand constant exposure to water and harsh pool chemicals. They need to be comfortable for bare feet, free of splinters, and slip-resistant. Luckily, a concrete pool deck can meet all these criteria. So, if you’re looking for a pool deck material that ticks all the boxes, consider concrete. We think you’ll be glad you did!
Concrete Flatwork
Concrete flatwork is a type of construction that involves pouring concrete along a horizontal plane to create a smooth, paved surface. You see it every day in the form of sidewalks and driveways in residential areas. In the industrial sector, it’s used for warehouse floors, parking lots, and loading docks. 🏭🏡
One of the great things about concrete flatwork is that it requires minimal maintenance, especially when it’s installed and maintained properly. Once the concrete has fully cured, a sealant is applied to act as a protective shield. This invisible layer blocks the tiny pores in the concrete that can absorb water and chemicals, preventing stains. 🛡️
Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials in the world, with about ten billion tons poured each year. It’s popular for a reason: it’s durable, versatile, and cost-effective. So, whether you’re planning a new construction project or looking to upgrade your existing surfaces, consider concrete flatwork. We’re here to help you every step of the way! 👍
Concrete Sidewalk
For residential use, we recommend a thickness of four inches. This is enough to prevent cracking under regular foot traffic and will stand the test of time. For commercial or industrial spaces with heavier traffic, a thickness of 5-6 inches is ideal. 📏
A thicker concrete slab is more resistant to cracking and, with proper maintenance, can last for decades. It’s all about getting the thickness just right. Too thin, and it might crack under pressure. Too thick, and you’re using more material than you need. But don’t worry, we’ve got this down to a science. 👷♀️🔬
As long as the foundation and framing are level, we can install a concrete slab that’s just the right thickness for your needs. And remember, consistency is key. An irregular thickness can put uneven pressure on the slab, leading to cracking.
We can also form ADA ramps, stairs, and elevation changes.
Exposed Aggregate
The most popular decorative aggregates are vibrant natural stones like basalt, granite, quartz, or limestone. But the options don’t stop there. You can also use manufactured materials like recycled colored glass. You can even seed seashells and other interesting objects into the concrete surface for a truly unique look.
The size and shape of the aggregate can vary. The size can range from 3/8 inch to 2 inches or more in diameter, which largely determines the depth of exposure. The shape of the aggregate affects the surface pattern and texture. Rounded aggregates provide the best coverage and a smoother surface, while angular aggregates add more texture and dimension. Avoid flat or sliver-shapes as they don’t hold well during the exposure process and can dislodge easily.
An exposed-aggregate finish looks fantastic on its own, but many contractors take it to the next level by using creative techniques that enhance or complement the colors and textures of the decorative aggregate. For example, you could use contrasting aggregates or combine areas of smooth and exposed-aggregate finishes. You could also vary the degree of aggregate exposure, from light to heavy.
