Why people around here hire us
Delaware County has no shortage of guys with a truck and a mixer. Here's what we actually do differently, and a short list of things we won't do.
Most of the work is underground
The slab is the last thing that happens. Before that we dig to firm ground, haul in crushed limestone, compact it in layers, and make sure water has a way out. It takes the longest, nobody sees it when we're done, and it's the reason the concrete holds up. We don't rush it.
The price is in writing
You get a written quote before we start, and it includes tearing out and hauling away the old concrete. If we pull up an old slab and find a surprise (usually wet, soft ground), we stop and talk to you before we do anything about it.
Sometimes we'll talk you out of it
If your driveway needs a few cracks sealed and not a new pour, that's what we'll tell you. It's a smaller job for us, but people talk, and we'd rather be the ones you call again in ten years.
We know this ground
We work in Delaware and the towns around it. We know which areas sit on the worst clay, what a February of freezing and thawing does to a thin slab, and how much salt ends up on a driveway off a busy road. It's why our standard driveway is built heavier than the bare minimum.
What we won't do
- Pour new concrete on top of old, cracked concrete.
- Skip the gravel base to come in cheaper.
- Leave a pile of broken concrete in your yard. We haul it away.
- Ask you to sign anything the same day we give you a price.
We're insured, and if the job needs a permit, we get it.
