Driveways, patios and footings for Mint Hill homes
Most calls from Mint Hill start with something you can see: a driveway that's cracked or sinking, a patio that holds water after rain, steps pulling away from the door. Where a slab has settled, the cause is usually underneath it, in a base that was raked flat instead of dug out and packed. We fix that first, because the surface only lasts as long as what it sits on.
We're based in Concord and work across the cities around it, from Stallings and Harrisburg to Albemarle. Price moves with the size of the slab, how much old concrete comes out, how much base the ground needs and the finish you pick. Timing turns on a dry day to pour and any permit the job needs. I'll put your own figure in a written estimate once I've seen the job.
Mint Hill handles its own zoning, and building permits go to Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement, so a permitted job starts with a zoning check and then a county application, which we take care of. You can see your property's flood risk, and ways to lower it, on the stormwater utility's flood zone map, and where your water runs decides which way we slope the slab.
Concrete work we do in Mint Hill
Concrete driveway building
When a driveway has cracked or sunk, we tear it out and pour new over a packed base.
Concrete patio construction
A patio sized for the grill and table, sloped so rain runs off instead of pooling by the back door.
Stamped concrete services
Pick stamped concrete for the look of stone or brick on a patio, without pavers that shift.
Concrete sidewalk building
Front walks that have heaved into a trip edge get replaced in sections, with joints cut where cracks should go.
Garage floor concrete
If your garage floor is pitted or cracked through, we pour a new, flat slab you can sweep clean.
Decorative concrete
Colored, exposed or scored finishes for a walk or patio where plain gray doesn't suit the house.
Concrete retaining walls
Where a yard drops off or soil keeps washing onto the drive, a poured wall holds the grade.
Concrete floor installation
New interior slabs for additions, workshops and basements, poured level and ready for the flooring on top.
Concrete pool decks
Around a pool, we pour a deck with a broom finish, a light brushed texture for grip when it's wet.
Concrete steps construction
Steps that have settled away from the house or crumbled at the edges get torn out and formed again.
Slab foundation building
For a new garage, addition or outbuilding, we pour the slab foundation on a dug-out, compacted base.
Foundation installation
When you're adding on, we form and pour the foundation that carries the new walls.
Concrete parking lot building
Small lots for shops and offices, poured thick enough to carry traffic and sloped to shed water.
Concrete footings
Every porch, deck or addition starts with footings, the buried concrete that carries the weight above it.
Foundation raising
If a slab or foundation has settled out of level, we look at whether lifting it is worth the money.
Concrete cutting
When you need an opening for a door, drain line or repair, we saw-cut the concrete clean.

Common questions from Mint Hill homeowners
When does a concrete job in Mint Hill need a permit?
County guidance says a project costing more than $20,000 needs a permit, and any work with structural elements, such as footings or a foundation, needs one at any cost. If your job is close to either line, we'll sort it out at the estimate, and you can confirm today's figures in the county's permit guidance.
Does a concrete contractor in North Carolina need a state license?
A general contractor in North Carolina must be licensed by law when the total project cost is $40,000 or more, the NC Licensing Board for General Contractors says. Ask anyone bidding a job that size whether they hold that license. We're licensed and fully insured.
Will a new concrete driveway in Mint Hill crack like the old one?
Concrete can still crack, but we set it up so cracks usually land where we chose. We dig out and pack the base, and cut control joints, grooves that give a crack a straight line to follow. If money's tight, I'd skip the fancy finish before I'd skimp on the base, because nobody sees the base until it fails.
How long will I be without my driveway after a new pour?
You stay off it while the concrete cures, the time it spends hardening and gaining strength before it can take weight. Feet come back well before tires do, and rushing that wait is how a new slab gets marked or cracked early. At the estimate, I'll tell you when each is safe for your pour.
Does a shed in Mint Hill need a permit before you pour the slab?
Under county guidance it does, a building permit if any dimension of the shed is over 12 feet and a zoning permit if it's smaller. Tell us the shed's size when you call, so the pad fits both the shed and the permit.
