Concrete scheduled around your business

On a commercial site, the concrete is rarely the hard part. The hard part is the schedule: a storefront that has to stay open, a loading dock that takes deliveries at six in the morning, tenants who need parking every day, a general contractor whose framers arrive the week after the slab. We build commercial sidewalks, building slabs, dumpster pads, curbs and gutters, footings and foundations, and concrete parking areas across Columbus. Every job starts with a phasing plan, before anyone talks about mix designs.

The structural side follows the plans. Where garbage trucks, box trucks and semis turn, sections get thicker and the reinforcement heavier. Exterior work gets an air-entrained mix for Ohio freeze-thaw and the salt that follows it. Slopes on walks and ramps, curb heights and gutter flow lines are set to the drawings and checked before each pour. Anything touching the public right-of-way is permitted first, and inspections are booked ahead, so nobody stands around waiting on an inspector and no inspector shows up to an empty site.

We work for property managers, business owners, HOA boards and general contractors. Send a set of plans, a scope or just photos and an address, and the contractor will call to talk through timing, access and what has to stay open. Quotes are free and itemized by area, so you can phase or trim the work to fit the budget year. At closeout, we walk the punch list with you or your superintendent until every item is done and every area is back in service.

How it works

How a commercial pour gets scheduled

  1. 1

    Scope and site walk

    Plans, specs or a walk of the property. We mark what must stay open: entrances, fire lanes, the dock and the dumpster.

  2. 2

    Phasing plan

    The work is split into sections with dates, so traffic and tenants know which area closes when.

  3. 3

    Permits, inspections, pours

    Right-of-way permits are in hand and inspections booked before each pour, then each phase is built and cured.

  4. 4

    Punch list and closeout

    We walk the finished work with you, close out every item and reopen each area when it can take traffic.

Questions

Commercial concrete FAQs

How do you handle freeze-thaw and salt on commercial sites?

Exterior pours use an air-entrained mix, slopes carry water off walks and lots, and joints follow the plans. Commercial sites get salted hard, so fresh pours should get through their first winter without rock salt, and a penetrating sealer helps on busy walks. Cold-weather pours get blankets and are never placed on frozen subgrade.

Who handles permits, right-of-way work and 811?

Work in the public right-of-way, like street sidewalks, curb cuts and approaches, needs a permit from the city, and the permitting office depends on which city or suburb the property sits in. Building permits for slabs and foundations usually come through the owner or GC. Either way, 811 is called before excavation so utilities are located.

How do you price commercial concrete?

From the scope: area, thickness, reinforcement, demolition and haul-off, access, phasing and after-hours work, plus permits and inspections. Heavy sections where trucks turn run higher than standard walks. Quotes are itemized by area so you can phase or trim scope.

Which areas do you cover for commercial work?

Columbus and 31 surrounding towns, including Dublin, Hilliard, Grove City, Groveport, Obetz, Gahanna, Westerville, Reynoldsburg, Whitehall, New Albany, Pickerington and Canal Winchester. The service areas page lists every town.

How long will the site be disrupted?

It depends on phasing. A dumpster pad or a run of sidewalk is usually a short closure, while slabs and parking areas are split into phases. Walks reopen to pedestrians within a couple of days, parking reopens after roughly a week, and loaded trucks wait longer, which the schedule accounts for.

Can you work nights or weekends?

When the job calls for it, yes, within what local noise rules and concrete suppliers allow. Storefront work often goes best in early mornings or on slow days, so the busy hours stay open.

Do you work for general contractors and HOAs?

Yes. For GCs, we price from the bid set, follow the specs and fit pours into the master schedule. For HOAs and property managers, we can quote a single damaged section or a phased plan for the whole community.

Know-how

Notes for property managers and GCs

  • 01

    Thicken where trucks turn

    Straight-line traffic is easy on concrete. Turning tires under a loaded garbage or delivery truck are not, so approaches, dumpster aprons and drive lanes typically get 6 inches or more with heavier steel, per the plans.

  • 02

    Phase around revenue

    Pick closures by what earns money: keep the main entrance and the closest parking open, and work the far end first. Early-morning and weekend pours cut disruption further.

  • 03

    Put drainage on the punch list

    After the first hard rain, walk the site and look for standing water at curbs, ramps and doorways. Ponding is easy to correct before closeout and miserable after a winter of ice.

  • 04

    Plan around first-winter salt

    New exterior concrete should not see rock salt its first winter. If the site will be salted heavily, pour early in the season or plan for a sealer and a gentler deicer that year.
