Commercial Services We Provide

We offer comprehensive concrete services for commercial properties. Our work includes new construction, additions, repairs, and replacements. Here are some of the most common services we provide to commercial clients.

Parking lots and parking areas require durable concrete that can handle constant vehicle traffic. We install new parking lots, replace damaged sections, and repair cracks and settled areas. We also handle curbing, wheel stops, and ADA-compliant parking spaces with proper markings and slopes.

Building foundations and slabs are critical to any commercial structure. We work with contractors and developers on new construction foundations, warehouse floors, retail building slabs, and industrial foundations. We have the equipment to handle large pours and the experience to meet engineering specifications.

Sidewalks and walkways around commercial properties must meet ADA requirements and provide safe access for customers and employees. We install compliant sidewalks with proper width, slope, and ramps. We also repair trip hazards and replace damaged sections quickly to maintain safety and avoid liability.

Loading docks and equipment pads take heavy abuse from trucks, forklifts, and machinery. We build reinforced concrete that can handle these loads without cracking or settling. We also understand the specific requirements for different types of equipment and can engineer solutions accordingly.

Dumpster pads and utility areas need proper drainage and durable surfaces that resist spills and heavy use. We install commercial-grade concrete designed for these demanding applications.

• Parking lots and parking area expansions

No matter what type of commercial concrete work you need, we can provide it. We scale our services to match your project requirements and timeline.

Working With Property Managers

Property managers juggle multiple properties and endless maintenance needs. You need contractors you can count on to respond quickly, provide fair pricing, and complete work without constant supervision. We work with several property management companies in the area and understand your specific needs.

We offer responsive service for emergency repairs like trip hazards that need immediate attention. We also provide regular maintenance services for ongoing needs across your portfolio. You get one reliable concrete contractor for all your properties instead of juggling multiple vendors.

We can work with your preferred vendors for complementary services like asphalt repair or line striping. We coordinate schedules to minimize disruption to tenants and customers. And we provide detailed documentation and photos for your records and billing.

Our goal is to make your job easier by being the concrete contractor you never have to worry about. We show up when scheduled, complete work professionally, and bill fairly and transparently.

Code Compliance and Inspections

Commercial projects require permits and inspections. Building codes specify concrete thickness, reinforcement, strength, and installation methods. ADA regulations dictate accessibility requirements for sidewalks, ramps, and parking areas. Fire codes affect certain applications. We know all these rules and build to meet them.

We handle permit applications and coordinate with building inspectors. We know what they look for and make sure everything passes inspection the first time. This saves you time and prevents expensive delays and rework.

For projects requiring engineered plans, we work closely with engineers to ensure our installation matches specifications exactly. We provide documentation and testing results as needed. Our attention to these details protects you from liability and ensures your project meets all legal requirements.

Compliance Areas We Address

• Local building codes for concrete work
• ADA requirements for accessibility
• Engineering specifications and structural requirements
• Fire code requirements for specific applications
• Environmental regulations for drainage and runoff
• Proper permitting and inspection coordination
• Documentation and testing as required

Compliance is not optional in commercial work. We take it seriously and build it into every project from the start.

Quality and Durability

Commercial concrete takes more abuse than residential work. Parking lots endure constant vehicle traffic and weather exposure. Loading docks see heavy trucks backing up repeatedly. Equipment pads support machinery that weighs tons. This concrete needs to be built right to last.

We use commercial-grade concrete mixes designed for demanding applications. We follow proper installation procedures including adequate base preparation, correct reinforcement placement, proper finishing techniques, and controlled curing. These steps ensure your concrete reaches its full strength and durability potential.

We also understand that commercial concrete often needs to perform in specific ways. Warehouse floors might need special smoothness for forklift operation. Parking lots need proper drainage so water does not pool. Loading docks require precise elevations to align with truck beds. We pay attention to these functional requirements, not just basic concrete installation.

Quality work costs a bit more upfront but saves you money over time through reduced maintenance and longer lifespan. We focus on building concrete that performs reliably for decades, not just passing inspection and moving on.
