"Cody Wallace came out and gave us a quick estimate on our driveway and back sidewalk/patio area. His price was within the range of 3 other contractors we had come out with estimates. He was very friendly, knowledgable and professional. We initially chose another company because of a better quoted price, but after a month of no response from that person, we called up Cody. We came out the next day for another estimate and to refresh himself on the job details. Even though he normally did not write up contracts, he was willing to put in writing the details of the work he would be doing for us.
Cody was able to start the job the very next week. They took one day to excavate and build the forms. They began early in the morning and were done by 3pm. Cody called me both at the beginning and end of the day to let us know what he planned to do, and what he had gotten done. He walked us around and showed us his plans and answered any of our questions. The next day the concrete arrived and they poured the entire job in one day. Cody said normally it would have taken 2 days, but because of rain in the forecast for that evening he wanted to get it finished. He called up additional workers just to get our driveway finished before the rain.  When an issue arose with the grading of the driveway, Cody notified me of the problem and then told me how he could fix the problem with a drainage area in our driveway. 
We needed to have dirt filled in around the edges of the new back sidewalk and driveway. Even though that was not something Cody originally agreed to do, when we asked him about it, he offered to use his equipment to spread out the dirt--free of charge. He found the best rated dirt and company to bring out a load of dirt. Then Cody himself came and spent half a day spreading it around our yard for us.
His crew was extremely hard working and professional. They were very courteous and did not make a huge mess. After he was finished, he walked us around and showed us everything he did. We were pleased--above and beyond our expectations. We trusted him to give us quality work and he delivered with and ease and satisfaction that showed he had a lot of experience. Whenever I called him and left a message, he would always return my call within 24 hours. I would recommend Wallace Concrete to anybody.

"Jeff and his team were timely in each step of the process. Jeff listened to us and had a clear understanding on what results we wanted and he delivered. Other than the new look, the work area and yard looked undisturbed when finished. Nice job. His crew were professional, courteous and hard workers. I highly recommend About Brick and Concrete."

FAQs for concrete foundation installation projects in Elkton, KY

A concrete footer is a relatively shallow column of concrete that sits below your foundation walls. Footers spread wider than the foundation, so they can support a higher amount of weight in critical spots, such as below walls. The exact dimensions of footers depend on the home, so larger structures need a larger footing.

To calculate footing size, you need to know the minimum width and depth for houses in your region. Multiplying the width by the linear footprint of the structure will give you the size in linear feet.

To convert linear feet into square feet, you can divide the width by 12. For example, an 18-inch footer is 1.5 square feet per linear foot. Multiply this number by the total in linear feet to get the answer in square feet.

Installing a pier and beam foundation costs $5 per square foot, or $8,000 to $15,000. This style is standard in homes built before the 1960s or those in flood-prone areas.

Concrete weight support ranges from 1,500 to 6,500 pounds per square inch, and footings need at least 3,500 to 4,500 pounds per square inch. Remember that your soil type, climate, and materials used will significantly affect how much weight your footings can hold, especially in certain areas.

It costs between $1,600 and $3,200 to pour a 20-by-20-foot concrete slab. These estimates are based on an average cost to pour a concrete slab of $4 to $8 per square foot. Be sure to discuss the specifics with a pro—they’ll give you an estimate of how much you can expect.

The cost to raise a house is between $3,200 and $10,000. This range refers to a form of repair that involves lifting the entire house to potentially remove the old foundation and build a new one or add to an existing one.
