"We had an outside exposed retention wall for our basement steps that needed replacement. The work was done in a timely fashion and with an excellent creation of the new wall. Also, they were reasonably affordable considering the scope and size of the project involved."

OWNER OPERATED. COST IS DETERMINED BY THE JOB. TRAVEL CHARGES APPLY. ASK ABOUT ANGIE'S LIST DISCOUNT.
"Very well. My sidewalk had settled and was causing a trip hazard. The estimate was done via email due to my tight timeline. Sent them pictures and received a response the next day. Actual cost was $25 over the estimate due to site characteristics not apparent on my photos but still sounded reasonable to me. They leveled 5 sidewalk squares including my front porch stoop. Work was done in a little over an hour and looks great!"

The shelf life of concrete depends on whether it's wet or dry. Ready-mixed concrete in its wet form lasts approximately 90 minutes to two hours after water is added, so it is essential to schedule your delivery carefully. Bags of dry concrete mix can last several months if stored properly in a cool, dry place. Moisture exposure can cause the cement to harden or lose strength over time.
An average concrete truck can hold between eight and 11 cubic yards of concrete, although some larger trucks can carry up to 15 cubic yards. However, road weight limits often restrict the amount they can carry, so most deliveries are around eight to 11 cubic yards. Knowing this helps you plan the number of truckloads you'll need for your project.
Pouring concrete doesn't take very long once the truck arrives. One cubic yard of concrete can be poured in about 10 minutes. Therefore, a full truck with 10 cubic yards of material would take approximately one hour and 40 minutes to empty. Keep in mind, though, that preparation and finishing work add time to the overall project.
Concrete sealing typically costs between $1,400 and $3,000. A high-quality sealer forms a durable barrier that blocks moisture, chemicals, and stains, helping the surface resist cracking and discoloration. By protecting the slab now, you avoid costly repairs later and extend the concrete’s lifespan. For best results, pros thoroughly clean the surface and apply the product evenly at the manufacturer’s recommended coverage rate.
Installing a standard concrete walkway costs around $1,800 for 200 square feet, which usually translates to a 3-foot-wide, 65-foot-long path poured to a 4-inch thickness. That figure includes both materials and professional labor. Reinforcement, coloring, or decorative finishes can raise the price, as can increasing the slab’s thickness to support light vehicle traffic. Knowing the dimensions and intended use in advance helps your local concrete contractor quote accurately and avoid surprise add-ons.
A concrete slab costs between $3,600 and $7,200. The final price depends on thickness, reinforcement, and site preparation. Basic residential pours use a 4-inch slab, but garages or workshops may need extra depth or steel rebar, which drives up material and labor charges. Some homeowners opt for prefabricated slabs delivered to the site, trading higher transport fees for quicker installation and consistent quality. Discuss load requirements and soil conditions with your contractor to choose the most cost-effective option.
