Custom Residential Concrete Services
Atlanta Concrete Services pours residential driveways 4 inches thick for standard passenger vehicles and 5 to 6 inches where trucks, RVs, or trailers will park. Every driveway gets steel rebar or wire mesh reinforcement and saw-cut control joints to guide where cracking occurs.
Before we pour concrete, we remove old material, grade the site, compact a clean gravel base appropriate for Georgia clay that swells and shrinks. We handle new installations, gravel-to-concrete conversions, full replacements of cracked or sunken driveways, extensions for added parking or turnaround space, and decorative stamped or colored borders.
Concrete patios give you a low maintenance, flat surface for entertaining, dining and gathering. Patios can be built in standard squares or can be custom built with a variety of shapes and finishes.
Finish options include a budget-friendly broom finish, stamped patterns that resemble stone, brick, or slate, integral or stained color, and exposed aggregate for a textured, natural look.
We slope every patio slightly away from the house so rainwater drains off instead of pooling near your foundation, and we can add footings for a future pergola in the same pour.
Sidewalks and walkways connect your driveway, front door, backyard, and garden. Most residential walkways we pour are 3 to 5 feet wide and 4 inches thick.
A broom finish or textured surface is recommended for traction on rainy or icy mornings.
Options include stamped borders, curved layouts, and colored concrete to match your landscaping. We also replace sidewalk sections cracked or lifted by tree roots or settling soil to remove trip hazards.
Concrete Repair & Replacement
Not every damaged surface needs full removal. Hairline cracks, minor spalling, and chipped edges can usually be repaired. When we replace, we correct the base underneath so the problem does not return.
Replacement is usually the better choice for:
- Wide cracks with height differences between sections
- Crumbling concrete throughout the slab
- Settling caused by a failed base
- Damage covering most of the surface
We pour residential slabs sized and reinforced for the load they will carry.
Common projects include shed and workshop pads, carport and parking pads, HVAC and generator pads, hot tub pads, and home addition or sunroom slabs.
A filled hot tub can weigh several thousand pounds, so it needs a thicker, well-reinforced pad compared to a small garden shed. We confirm every slab is level and square before the pour and build to the approved plans when a permit is required.
Concrete Steps & Porches
Concrete steps and front porches provide a durable entry to your home. We form and pour steps with consistent riser heights and tread depths for safety and code compliance.
Options include broom finishes for traction in wet weather, stamped or colored surfaces that match your patio and walkways, bullnose or squared edges, and embedded anchors for handrails. Crumbling or separating steps are common on older Atlanta homes, so we remove failing steps and rebuild them with proper footings and reinforcement tied into the structure where appropriate.
Foundations and footings transfer the weight of a structure to the soil below. We pour slab-on-grade foundations, continuous footings with stem walls, and pier footings for home additions, garages, detached structures, decks, and porches.
Georgia's clay soils shift with moisture changes, so footing depth and width matter. We work from engineered or permitted plans and coordinate inspections before the pour.
A pool deck has to be slip-resistant, comfortable for bare feet, and able to handle constant water.
We pour new decks and replace aging ones around in-ground and above-ground pools, with broom, stamped, exposed aggregate, or cool-deck finishes that reduce surface heat in summer. Decks slope away from the pool edge toward drains or the yard so chlorinated water and debris stay out of the pool, and expansion joints between the deck and coping allow for movement.
Many Atlanta properties sit on sloped lots, and retaining walls hold back soil, reduce erosion, and create usable flat space. We build poured concrete walls with steel reinforcement and footings sized for the wall height and soil load.
Drainage is the most important part: gravel backfill, a perforated drain pipe at the base, and weep holes where appropriate.
When a slab sinks or tilts, leveling can raise it back into position without full replacement. It is common on sidewalks, driveway sections, patios, and steps that settled from soil erosion or poor compaction.
We drill small holes through the sunken slab, pump material underneath to fill voids and lift the concrete, then patch the holes once it reaches the correct height.
Mudjacking uses a cement-based slurry, while polyurethane foam leveling uses a lightweight expanding foam. Leveling works best when the concrete itself is still sound.
Concrete Resurfacing
Resurfacing applies a new polymer-modified overlay over existing concrete that is structurally stable but worn, stained, pitted, or lightly spalled. We clean and prepare the surface and repair cracks first.
- Finishes: smooth or textured, stamped patterns, colored overlays, or spray-applied knockdown textures
- Limits: it will not fix concrete that is actively sinking or heaving, so we recommend leveling or replacement first
Concrete Garage & Basement Floors
Garage and basement floors handle vehicle weight, foot traffic, moisture, and oil or chemical spills. We pour new floors, replace damaged ones, and repair cracked or uneven sections. Garage floors slope slightly toward the door so water drains out, and basement slabs get a vapor barrier to limit ground moisture in Georgia's humid climate.
After curing, many homeowners add a sealer or epoxy coating to resist stains and make cleaning easier.
Custom Commercial Concrete Services
Warehouses, retail spaces, offices, and manufacturing facilities each need a different slab design. We size thickness, concrete strength, and reinforcement to the loads the floor will carry: 4 to 6 inches for light commercial use, 6 to 8 inches or more for forklifts and racking, and 3,000 to 5,000 PSI mixes depending on load.
Reinforcement can be rebar, welded wire mesh, or fiber-reinforced concrete, with smooth trowel, broom, polished, or sealed finishes. Control joints at planned intervals limit random cracking as the slab cures and shrinks.
Concrete parking lots often outlast asphalt, skip routine sealcoating, and reflect more heat during Atlanta summers. We plan each lot around the vehicles that will use it, since passenger-car lots and delivery-truck lots have different requirements.
Our work covers grading and compacting the subbase, designing slopes for stormwater drainage, pouring reinforced pavement at the right thickness, and adding joints, striping layouts, and ADA-accessible spaces.
Commercial driveways and entrance aprons are built to handle repeated turning and braking from heavy vehicles.
A building's foundation depends on the soil beneath it, and clay soils in the Atlanta area expand when wet and shrink when dry. We install slab-on-grade foundations for retail, office, and light industrial buildings, spread footings for columns and load-bearing walls, continuous footings for perimeter walls, and grade beams across unstable soil.
We follow the project's engineered drawings and local building codes, and we coordinate excavation, formwork, rebar placement, and inspections before each pour.
These areas take concentrated weight and repeated impact, and standard pavement thickness is often not enough. Loading docks see constant truck and forklift traffic, so we build approach aprons and dock slabs with heavier reinforcement and thicker sections.
Dumpster pads have to support waste trucks that lift and drop containers, and a reinforced pad of about 6 to 8 inches reduces cracking and surface breakdown. Equipment pads for HVAC units, generators, and transformers are sized to each unit's footprint and weight, with anchor bolts or embedded items as specified.
Commercial Concrete Repair & Replacement
We inspect commercial concrete first and match the fix to the problem: crack sealing or routing and filling for hairline cracks, resurfacing or patching for scaling and spalling, slab lifting or section replacement for sunken slabs, and full removal and replacement for widespread structural damage. Trip hazards on sidewalks create liability for property owners, and we can remove and replace individual panels to fix them.
For businesses that need to stay open, we schedule work in phases so parts of your parking lot, entrance, or facility stay available during the project.
Commercial walkways must meet ADA requirements for slope, width, and surface texture. We build ramps, landings, and transitions to these standards.
Common features include broom-finished surfaces for slip resistance, detectable warning surfaces at crossings, standard and mountable curbs, and curb and gutter systems for drainage. Curbs direct water, define traffic lanes, and protect landscaping, and we form them in place or slip-form longer runs. Stamped or colored concrete is available for storefronts and plazas.
Decorative Concrete Services
Stamped Concrete
Stamped concrete is fresh concrete pressed with textured mats before it hardens. It can look like brick, slate, flagstone, cobblestone, or wood plank for much less than the natural material. We use it most often for patios, pool decks with a slip-resistant texture, driveways, front walks, and borders that frame a plain slab.
Color and release agents add depth to the pattern, and a sealer protects against stains and UV fading. Resealing every two to three years keeps the finish looking fresh.
Stained Concrete
Staining adds color to concrete that has already cured, on new slabs and many existing surfaces including basements, garage floors, and commercial interiors. Acid-based stains react chemically with the concrete for mottled, marbled earth tones, while water-based stains penetrate the surface for a wider, more uniform color range.
We clean and prepare the slab first so the color absorbs evenly, then finish with a sealer or wax.
Colored Concrete
Colored concrete gets its pigment mixed in before the pour, so the color runs through the full depth of the slab and chips or wear are less noticeable. Color hardeners broadcast onto fresh concrete produce brighter shades and add surface strength in high-traffic areas. Popular choices include tan and sand, charcoal and gray, terra cotta and brick red, and brown earth tones.
We provide color samples so you can compare options in person, since shades look different outdoors than in a brochure.
Repair & Maintenance
Concrete Resurfacing
When concrete is sound but the surface looks tired, resurfacing restores it for much less than tearing out and replacing the slab. We pressure wash, repair cracks and chips, and apply a bonded overlay that covers stains, pitting, and light spalling.
It works well for driveways, patios, pool decks, and walkways. Slabs that are sinking or heaving need leveling or replacement first.
Concrete Crack Repair
Georgia's red clay expands when wet and shrinks when dry, and tree roots, heavy vehicles, and poor drainage add stress. We find the cause before we repair: hairline cracks under 1/8 inch get a flexible filler, wide cracks over 1/4 inch are routed and sealed with polyurethane, and sunken sections are leveled or replaced.
Small cracks are cheaper to fix early, before water washes out the base and larger sections sink.
Sealing & Maintenance
A quality sealer reduces water absorption, oil stains, and surface wear, and limits fading on stamped and colored concrete. We clean with pressure washing and degreasers, repair minor chips and cracks, apply a penetrating or film-forming sealer, and tell you when you can walk or drive on it.
We recommend resealing driveways and patios every 2 to 3 years, sooner for high-traffic areas and surfaces in full sun.
Why We're the Best Concrete Company in Atlanta
What Does Our Atlanta Concrete Services Process Involve?
Our process follows a clear sequence from the first conversation to the final walkthrough, so you know what to expect and when. Site preparation is the step we focus on most: Georgia's red clay expands and contracts with moisture, so a properly compacted base, good drainage, control joints, and rebar or wire mesh where needed help the concrete handle Atlanta's temperature swings and heavy rainfall.
Consultation & Estimate
We discuss your goals, budget, and timeline, inspect soil, drainage, slope, and existing concrete, and give you an itemized written estimate with no hidden costs.
Permits & Preparation
We handle permits and Georgia 811 utility locates, then excavate, grade, compact the base, and set the forms.
Reinforcement, Pour & Finish
Rebar or wire mesh goes in as needed, then we place, level, and finish the concrete in the broom, smooth, or decorative texture you selected. Control joints are cut or tooled to direct cracking along planned lines, and we avoid pouring below 40°F or when rain is forecast.
Curing & Walkthrough
We protect the slab while it cures and review the work with you. Foot traffic is usually fine after 24 to 48 hours and vehicles after about 7 days, with full strength at roughly 28 days.
How Much Do Concrete Services Cost in Atlanta?
Most residential concrete projects in the Atlanta area cost between $7 and $15 per square foot installed, depending on size, site access, thickness, and finish. Larger pours often cost less per square foot because setup is spread out, while tight backyards, extra base work on Georgia red clay, and removal of old concrete add to the price. On a typical plain concrete project, materials and labor each run about 35–45% of the cost, with site preparation at 10–20%. We recommend a 10–15% contingency for buried roots or soft soil found during excavation.
