Our Concrete Work Process

01

Site Preparation

Area is excavated to proper depth, subbase is graded and compacted, and forms are set precisely.

02

Reinforcement

Rebar or wire mesh is placed for structural integrity and crack resistance.

03

Pouring & Finishing

Concrete is poured, screeded level, finished to the specified texture (broom, smooth, stamped, exposed aggregate).

04

Control Joints & Cure

Control joints are cut or tooled at appropriate intervals. Concrete is kept moist during curing for maximum strength.

Concrete Work FAQ for St. Louis Homeowners

How often should St. Louis homeowners get concrete work?
Given St. Louis's severe tornado and hail risk in spring and fall along i-44 and i-70 corridors, most homeowners benefit from concrete work at least once a year. Ice storm branch and gutter damage (Dec–Feb) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in St. Louis most need concrete work?
Red brick bungalows and two-stories throughout St. Louis County and Victorian homes in Lafayette Square and Compton Heights are the most common home types in St. Louis and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
How thick should a concrete patio be?
4 inches is standard for patios and walkways with no vehicle traffic. Driveways should be 4–6 inches. Slabs supporting heavy loads need 6+ inches with rebar.
Will concrete crack?
Concrete cracks — it's almost inevitable. The goal is to control where it cracks using control joints, so it cracks in straight lines rather than randomly. Proper subbase, reinforcement, and mix design minimize cracking.
What is stamped concrete?
Stamped concrete uses textured patterns pressed into fresh concrete, mimicking stone, brick, slate, or wood at a fraction of the material cost. It can also be colored for added visual interest.
Can concrete be poured in cold weather?
Yes, with precautions. Concrete must be kept above 50°F for at least 3 days during cure. Cold weather pours require insulated blankets and sometimes heated enclosures.
