Commercial Concrete Services
Reliable concrete work for businesses, warehouses, and commercial properties.
Commercial Projects Require Commercial Experience
Commercial concrete work isn't just residential work on a bigger scale. Your business property faces different challenges than a home. Heavy traffic, delivery trucks, forklift traffic, and constant use demand concrete that's engineered for commercial loads.
Building codes for commercial properties are stricter than residential codes. Inspectors scrutinize everything from thickness to reinforcement to drainage. We know Ohio commercial building codes inside and out. Your project passes inspection the first time, keeping you on schedule and on budget.
Timing matters more for commercial projects. Every day your parking lot is torn up or your loading dock is out of service costs you money. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your business. Many projects can be done on weekends or after hours so your operations continue normally.
We also understand that appearance matters for commercial properties. Your concrete makes an impression on customers and clients. Cracked, stained, or uneven concrete surfaces make your business look unprofessional. We deliver clean, attractive results that enhance your property's image.

How We Complete Commercial Projects
Commercial concrete work requires careful planning and execution. We've developed a process that delivers quality results while respecting your business operations and timeline.
Site Assessment and Planning
We visit your property to assess soil conditions, drainage, existing concrete, and access for equipment. This site visit lets us spot potential problems before they delay your project. We discuss your needs, timeline, and budget to create a detailed plan that works for your business.
Engineering and Design
Commercial concrete must be engineered properly. We calculate load requirements, determine proper thickness and reinforcement, and design drainage systems. For larger projects, we work with structural engineers to ensure your concrete meets all specifications. You get detailed plans and specifications before work begins.
Preparation and Base Work
Proper preparation is essential for commercial concrete. We excavate to the correct depth, install drainage systems, and build a stable base. The base typically includes compacted gravel or crushed stone. For heavy-duty applications, we may install additional layers or use geotextile fabric to prevent settling.
Concrete Placement
We use commercial-grade concrete mixes designed for your application. High-traffic areas get stronger mixes with proper air entrainment for freeze-thaw durability. We install rebar or wire mesh reinforcement as specified in the engineering plans. Our crew works efficiently to place and finish large areas, often completing significant sections in a single day to minimize disruption.
Finishing and Protection
Commercial surfaces need appropriate finishes. Parking lots get broom-finished surfaces for traction. Warehouse floors are finished smooth and level for forklift traffic. We protect curing concrete so it reaches full strength, and we can apply sealers or coatings for extra protection and easier maintenance.
What Makes Us Different for Commercial Work
You have choices when it comes to commercial concrete contractors. Here's why Kent businesses trust us with their concrete needs.
First, we show up when we say we will. Reliability matters when you're coordinating multiple contractors and trying to keep your business running. We provide realistic schedules and stick to them. If weather or other issues cause delays, we communicate immediately and adjust the plan.
Second, we do quality work that passes inspection the first time. Failed inspections cost time and money. Our experience with commercial codes means we know what inspectors look for. We build it right from the start, so you don't waste time on corrections and re-inspections.
Third, we maintain a safe, professional job site. Your customers, employees, and delivery drivers need to navigate safely around our work area. We set up proper barriers, signage, and alternate routes. Our crew follows safety protocols to protect themselves and everyone on your property.
Fourth, we communicate clearly throughout the project. You get regular updates on progress, and we're available to answer questions. If you need to schedule deliveries or coordinate with other contractors, we work with you to make it happen. Your project manager has our direct number.
Finally, we stand behind our work with solid warranties. Commercial concrete represents a significant investment. We guarantee our workmanship so you have peace of mind. If any issues arise, we take care of them promptly. Many of our commercial clients come back for additional concrete work or recommend us to other businesses because they know we deliver results.
