"Responded to request within an hour.  Came out and gave estimate that day.  They went out of their way to help us decide the best place to pour the two individual pads.  Began work two days later.  The entire crew worked very hard and were very professional.  They had to deal with delays waiting on the delivery of rock and three trucks of concrete, but handled it well.  They worked late, because of the delays, but were determined to get the huge job completed in one day.  They went out of their way to help us prepare the site by moving our storage buildings.  Cody came back the following two days to check on the slabs to ensure that they were curing correctly and to score them to prevent cracking.  Everything about this job was excellent.  I would highly recommend them to anyone.

"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.
