Concrete work for homes in Smiths Station
We're a concrete contractor based in Auburn, AL, and our crew comes over to Smiths Station to build driveways, patios, walks and slabs, as we do in Opelika, Tuskegee and other nearby cities. Price turns on the slab's size, the digging and base work your ground needs and the finish you pick, and the schedule turns on that prep and the weather, so your written estimate shows each choice.
On new construction here, the city approves the site plan, land disturbance and runoff control before Lee County Building Inspections issues the building permit, so I find out early what your job needs and we handle our part or show you what to file. Alabama also requires a home builder license for paid work over $10,000 to build, repair or improve someone else's home.
What we pour in Smiths Station
Get a quoteConcrete driveway building
We pack the base and set rebar, steel that holds the slab together, before pouring a driveway pitched to shed water away from your garage.
Concrete patio construction
When an old patio has sunk or holds puddles, we tear it out and pour a new one on a packed base, sloped gently away from the house.
Stamped concrete services
Stamped concrete is pressed with patterned mats while it's still soft, so a patio or walk can look like stone or brick on the same solid base.
Concrete sidewalk building
A walk that has heaved or broken into a trip hazard is usually best replaced, and we cut control joints, shallow grooves that give cracks a planned line.
Garage floor concrete
A cracked or stained garage floor can be broken out and repoured on a packed base, with a smooth or lightly textured top that stands up to tires.
Decorative concrete
Colored concrete, exposed stone and stained finishes, chosen at the estimate, for homeowners who want more than plain gray but still want the slab built right underneath.
Concrete retaining walls
Where a bank keeps washing out or a yard slopes toward the house, a poured retaining wall on footings holds the soil and drains water behind it.
Concrete floor installation
Interior slabs for shops, sunrooms and additions, poured level over a packed subgrade, the ground the slab sits on, so the floor sits flat under what goes on it.
Concrete pool decks
A pool deck needs a finish that grips wet feet and a slope that carries splash water away from the house, both planned before we pour.
Concrete steps construction
Crumbling or uneven front steps are formed and poured in place, with even risers and a broom finish, a brushed texture that gives shoes some grip.
Slab foundation building
For a new house, garage or addition, we pour the slab foundation on a packed base with thickened edges and rebar, after the site work and approvals.
Foundation installation
Footings, foundation walls and slabs for new buildings, laid out to the plans and set on undisturbed or well-packed soil so the structure above has firm support.
Concrete parking lot building
For a small business that needs a lot or an apron, we set the thickness for the traffic it carries and the slope for where rain should run.
Concrete footings
Footings, the buried concrete under a porch, wall or addition, go down to solid soil, because whatever sits above is only as steady as they are.
Foundation raising
When a slab or foundation has settled into cracks or uneven floors, we find out why it sank first, because a lift won't hold if the cause stays.
Concrete cutting
Clean saw cuts for a new doorway, a plumbing trench, a section of damaged slab or control joints that were never cut, without breaking up more than needed.

Why hire us in Smiths Station
I come out myself
I look at your job before we price it, and I'm on site with our crew when we pour, so the person who measured it is there for the work.
Runoff kept out of ditches
Ditches and storm drains here carry rainwater to local creeks, so we keep dug soil and the truck's rinse water out of them and slope your slab away from the house.
The base comes first
A smooth top on raked, loose dirt tends to settle and crack, so we dig out and pack the base first, and if the budget is tight I'd trim the finish before the prep.
