Concrete slabs are used for a wide range of applications, including building foundations, patios, driveways, sidewalks, shed bases, and garage floors. Because of their durability and versatility, concrete slabs are a popular and cost-effective solution for both residential and commercial construction.

The Concrete Slab Installation Process

Here’s what you can expect when working with Prime Concrete:


1. Site Assessment & Estimate

We start by evaluating the site to determine grading, drainage, access, and dimensions. We then provide a detailed, no-obligation estimate.


2. Excavation & Prep

We excavate and level the area, compact the soil, and build wooden forms to shape the slab. For larger or structural slabs, we install rebar or wire mesh reinforcement.


3. Pouring the Concrete

Our team pours the concrete mix evenly and works it into the form. Using tools and equipment, we screed and finish the surface to your desired texture.


4. Curing

Proper curing is key to a strong slab. We allow the concrete to cure slowly, preventing cracks and ensuring maximum strength and durability.


5. Cleanup & Final Inspection

After the slab sets, we remove the forms, clean the area, and conduct a final quality check to ensure everything meets your expectations.


Concrete Slab Maintenance Tips

Concrete slabs are durable, but a little maintenance goes a long way. Here’s how to keep your slab in great shape:

  • Seal the surface: Sealing protects against stains, water intrusion, and freeze-thaw cycles.
  • Clean regularly: Remove debris, leaves, and spills to prevent staining or surface damage.
  • Avoid heavy impacts: Dropping heavy objects can chip or crack the surface.
  • Watch for drainage issues: Water pooling near the slab can cause long-term damage—ensure proper grading around the area.

Ask our team about professional concrete sealing options to protect your investment.
