Grading & Site Prep
Most concrete failures are prep failures. We cut grade, haul spoil, bring in and compact stone, and set forms true before a single truck shows up.

How it goes
Four steps, no guesswork
- 01
Walk the site
We meet you on site, measure the work, check access and talk about drainage, finish and timeline.
- 02
Written itemized bid
You get square footage, thickness, reinforcement and finish spelled out with a firm price.
- 03
Prep, form and pour
Grade, base, forms and steel go in first. Then we pour and finish with our own crew, not day labor.
- 04
Cure and walk it
We saw joints, cure the slab, clean the site and walk the finished work with you before final billing.
Questions
Grading & Site Prep FAQs
Why does Georgia clay cause problems?
Clay holds water and moves with moisture. Undercutting soft spots and replacing them with compacted stone gives the slab a stable, draining base.
Do you do site prep without the concrete?
Yes. Standalone grading, base and drainage work is welcome, whether or not we pour the flatwork.
