A concrete contractor in Chattanooga works with the ground more than with the concrete. Much of the area sits on clay soil that moves as it wets and dries, and many lots slope. The pour is the last step of a process that begins with grading, drainage and compaction, and a perfect pour over a bad base still cracks.

Concrete is also the first phase of nearly every building project: the slab or foundation under a house, the pad under a garage, the driveway to the door. We pour it knowing what will sit on it, which affects the thickness, reinforcement, finish and anchor details.

From a foundation for a new home to a walkway to the front door, we handle concrete as part of a full construction crew rather than as a stand-alone specialty.

What to Ask a Concrete Contractor

Ask what happens before the pour. The answer should include grading, base, forms, reinforcement and drainage. A contractor who talks mostly about finishing is skipping the part that decides how long the work lasts.

Ask about control joints, curing and weather. Concrete sets on its own schedule, and a plan for heat, rain and cold is part of doing the job well.

We pour concrete as builders, and we tie it to the framing, decks and structure that follow.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the base so important for concrete?

Concrete is rigid. If the soil underneath moves or washes out, the slab cracks or settles. A compacted, well-drained base keeps it supported.

How long does concrete take to cure?

It sets within a day or so but continues gaining strength for weeks. We will tell you when to walk, park and build on it.

Can concrete be poured in cold or hot weather?

Yes, with precautions. Extreme temperatures affect curing, so we plan around the forecast.

Can you match existing concrete?

Color and texture of old concrete are hard to match exactly. We will explain what is realistic.

Do you handle demolition of old concrete?

Yes. We break out and haul away failed concrete before rebuilding the base.
