Concrete finishing trowels laid out before a pour

Services

A1 Concrete LLC does two kinds of work that belong together: getting the ground right and putting concrete on it. Most of what goes wrong with a driveway or a slab around Greenwood starts below the surface, in red Piedmont clay that swells when it is wet and shrinks when it dries out. That is why the same company that pours also grades, clears, drains and tears out. We are licensed and insured, and we take residential and commercial jobs.

What we do

Five pages cover the work. Driveways and flatwork is the broad one: driveways, patios, slabs, sidewalks and walkways, for homes and for businesses. Stamped and colored concrete is the decorative side, for patios, walks and drives where the look matters as much as the strength. Retaining walls and drainage covers walls on sloped and lake lots, plus French drains for yards that hold water. Grading, clearing and site work is lot clearing, rough and finish grading, pad prep and silt fence. Demolition is breaking out old concrete and hauling it away so the next thing can go in.

Each card on this page opens a fuller explanation of how that job is done here, what the ground has to do with it and what changes the size of the job.

How to choose

Plenty of jobs do not fit one box, and you do not need to sort it out before you get in touch. A cracked driveway is usually a tear-out, some base work and a new pour. A wet back yard might need a French drain, a regrade or both. A wooded lot needs clearing and silt fence before a pad, and a pad before a slab. Describe what you see and what you want to end up with, and we will tell you which pieces it takes. If you are weighing options, start with the ground. A slab on a compacted stone base with proper control joints will outlast a thicker slab poured straight on clay. If water runs toward the house now, sort out the slope or the drainage before spending money on new concrete. If the old concrete has settled in pieces, it has to come out before anything new goes down. The work is the same from town to town, and you can check which places are on our route if you are outside Greenwood. Every job is priced after someone has walked the ground and measured it, with the price in writing before a truck is ordered. When you are ready, put the job in the message box on the quote page and we will set a time to come look.
