  • Will you be reinforcing the concrete with rebar?

  • What kind of site preparation is needed for a successful concrete project?

    All root systems (grasses, trees, and brush) should be excavated down to virgin soil and built up with crushed limestone to provide a solid foundation for the concrete to be placed upon. We can then get started on installing your concrete structure. If you have any questions about how you should prepare for concrete companies, call Garrett Concrete today!

  • How thick should my driveway concrete be?

    Our professionals have found that four inches of thickness is standard when pouring a concrete driveway, ensuring that it lasts for years. According to Today's Homeowner, an online home improvement resource, a concrete driveway can last up to 50 years. Our driveways stand out because we implement reinforcement and high-strength mix designs to ensure yours lasts for decades. Call Garrett Concrete today and talk to expert concrete contractors about your driveway needs.

  • How can the longevity of our concrete project be increased?

    Steel reinforcement and proper mix design give a concrete project the strength it needs to stand up to wear and tear.

  • Should we seal our new concrete project?

  • How critical are expansion joints? How far apart should my expansion joints be placed?

    Expansion joints are one of the most critical parts of a concrete project, whether you need a concrete patio installation or a foundation slab. These expansion joints allow the concrete to expand and contract and are designed to help mitigate spider cracking within the concrete project as a whole. 


    In the experience of our expert concrete contractors, expansion joints should be placed no further apart than 12 feet. Properly spaced expansion joints will ensure that your concrete project is protected from cracking. Call Garrett Concrete for more information about your project.

  • Will the owner be managing the project?

    Yes, our owner devotes at least 50% of his daily time to managing each project, ensuring the work is being done according to the local codes and regulations. You can ask him any questions you need answered while he's on-site. This dedication to quality has made us one of the preferred local concrete companies. Call Garrett Concrete today to get started with a free estimate!

  • If we want to expand our patio or driveway, are you able to make the new and old concrete sections match?

    We can apply a tinted stain to the entire patio (both new and old) to ensure a perfect color match. Please inquire about our concrete staining services!

  • We have several concrete projects on our to-do list around the house. Is it more cost-effective to have multiple or all projects done at the same time as opposed to splitting them into individual projects?

    Yes. There are economies to consider when receiving quotes for concrete projects. Typically, bundling your projects together can lead to lower costs for mobilization, labor, and material orders.

  • Do you provide residential and commercial concrete services?

    Yes, Garrett Concrete is a full-service concrete company providing expert solutions for both residential and commercial projects.
