Concrete work for homes and businesses
For homeowners, that means new and replacement driveways and approaches, patios and patio extensions, front walks and public sidewalks, steps and porches, pool decks, garage floors, pads, retaining walls and landscape curbing, in plain, stamped, stained or exposed aggregate finishes. It also means the work that keeps existing concrete in service: crack and slab repair, leveling, resurfacing and sealing, and removal of old concrete.
For businesses, property managers and builders, it means parking lots, curb and gutter, industrial floors, tilt-wall construction, apartment and multifamily concrete, slabs and foundations, and commercial repair.
Repair and leveling sit beside new work for a reason. The most common soil mapped in Garland is Houston Black clay, which the USDA rates as having high shrink-swell potential, and the median home in the city was built in 1978, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's 2020–2024 American Community Survey.

A free estimate on site
A real price needs a look at the job: the size and slope, access for the concrete truck, any old concrete to remove and the soil underneath. The estimate costs nothing.
Permits and utility marks
In Garland, a new or widened driveway, a driveway approach and a public sidewalk repair each need a City permit, and the City's construction notes call for a Texas811 utility locate before any digging.
Prep, base and steel
Any old concrete comes out, the ground is graded and compacted, and a base goes down; base and subbase together typically total 4 inches or more. Forms and reinforcement go in next.
Pour, finish and joints
The concrete is placed, leveled and finished. The National Ready Mixed Concrete Association calls for a broom texture on exterior slabs for grip and control joints no more than about 10 feet apart on a 4-inch slab.
Curing and first use
NRMCA says curing typically runs 3 to 7 days. New concrete is generally okay to walk on after 48 hours and can carry a car after 7 to 10 days.
