Commercial Concrete

Commercial Concrete Contractor for Columbus, OH

Commercial concrete is the same craft as residential with more people watching. There are plans and specs, inspectors, tenants who need their doors open and trucks that still have to get in. Our commercial work covers entrance walks, slabs on grade, dumpster pads, curb and gutter, and concrete parking areas for property managers, business owners, HOAs and general contractors around Columbus. The base, the steel and the joints follow the same logic as a driveway, scaled up for heavier loads and a lot more traffic.

Planning carries most commercial jobs. We map out which sections close when, so customers can still reach the entrance and deliveries can still reach the dock. Where garbage and delivery trucks turn, sections are thicker and the mix is heavier. Slopes, ramps and curb heights are built to what the plans call for, and right-of-way work gets its permit and inspection. At the end, a punch list walk with you or your superintendent closes out the job, item by item.

Commercial Concrete, step by step

  1. 1

    Plans and walk

    We go through the plans or walk the site with you and mark what has to stay open.

    Build and inspect

    Base, forms and steel are checked, inspections happen where required, and each section is poured.

  4. 4

    Punch list

Questions

Commercial Concrete questions

How does commercial concrete hold up to salt and freeze-thaw?

With air-entrained mixes, proper slopes to drains and thickness matched to traffic. Lots and sidewalks see heavy salt, so a penetrating sealer is worth considering. Standing water is the real enemy, so grades get checked before every pour.

How is a commercial concrete job priced?

By the scope in the plans: area, thickness, reinforcement, tear-out, phasing and how much work happens outside business hours. Permits, inspections and traffic control add to it. Send the plans or a description for a free estimate.

Do you handle right-of-way permits?

Sidewalk, curb and approach work in the public right-of-way needs a permit and usually an inspection from the city. Who pulls it depends on the contract, and we sort that out at the estimate. 811 gets called before any digging.

Can work be done while the business stays open?

Usually. We phase the job so one entrance or one section of parking closes at a time, and loud work can be scheduled outside peak hours. Tell us your busy days when you ask for the estimate.

Do you work as a subcontractor for general contractors?

Yes. We price from the plans and specs, fit our pours into your schedule and coordinate inspections with your superintendent. Send the bid set and the scope you want priced.
