Concrete Slabs & Flatwork

Types of Concrete Slabs We Pour

We install concrete slabs for a wide range of applications:

Shed Pads and Storage Building Floors

A concrete slab creates a solid, level base for your storage shed or building. It keeps your structure stable, prevents settling, and protects your belongings from moisture and pests.

Garage Floors

We pour slabs for new garage construction or to replace old, damaged floors. A quality garage floor can handle vehicle weight, resist oil stains, and provide a clean workspace for years.

Workshop and Barn Floors

Create a sturdy floor for your workshop, barn, or agricultural building. We can design the slab to handle heavy equipment and provide proper drainage if needed.

Equipment Pads

Set your HVAC unit, generator, hot tub, or other equipment on a concrete pad. This protects your investment and makes maintenance easier.

RV Pads and Parking Areas

Park your RV, boat, or trailer on a concrete pad designed to handle the weight. It keeps your vehicle level and prevents mud and tire ruts.

Basketball Courts and Play Areas

A smooth concrete slab makes an excellent surface for basketball courts, play areas, or outdoor sports.

What Makes a Quality Concrete Slab

Not all concrete slabs are equal. Here is what we do to ensure your slab performs well:

• Proper Site Preparation: We excavate to the right depth, remove organic material, and grade for drainage away from buildings.
• Compacted Gravel Base: A well-compacted gravel base prevents settling and provides drainage under the slab.
• Correct Thickness: We pour slabs at the appropriate thickness for your use, typically 4 inches for light duty and 5 to 6 inches for garages and heavy equipment.
• Reinforcement: We use wire mesh or rebar to add strength and prevent cracking, especially for larger slabs.
• Quality Concrete Mix: We use the right concrete mix for slab applications with proper strength rating.
• Professional Finishing: We level, smooth, and finish the surface to your specifications, whether you need a smooth trowel finish or a textured surface.
• Control Joints: We cut control joints at proper intervals to manage cracking as the concrete cures.
• Proper Curing: Foundations need adequate time to cure before construction continues.

Benefits of Concrete Slabs

Concrete slabs offer several advantages over other foundation types:

• Durability: Concrete slabs last 30 to 50 years or more with minimal maintenance.
• Stability: A properly prepared slab provides a solid, level surface that will not shift or settle.
• Moisture Resistance: Concrete slabs protect buildings and equipment from ground moisture.
• Pest Prevention: A concrete floor keeps out rodents and insects that can damage stored items.
• Low Maintenance: Concrete requires little upkeep beyond occasional cleaning.
• Versatility: Concrete slabs can be left natural or finished with paint, epoxy, or other coatings.
• Cost-Effective: Concrete offers excellent value for the strength and longevity it provides.
