Commercial Concrete
Commercial Concrete Contractor in Salt Lake City, UT
Commercial concrete is the same seven steps with more paperwork and less room for downtime. We take on sidewalks, curbing, dumpster and equipment pads, building slabs, footings, ramps and replacement panels for stores, offices, shops, warehouses, churches and rental properties. Slabs are built to the plans the engineer or architect provides, with thickness and steel set by the design, not by habit. Joint layouts, embeds and finish tolerances come off the drawings, and inspections get written into the pour schedule.
The bigger difference is keeping a business open while concrete goes in. That means phasing work so a storefront keeps an entrance, taping off walkways, starting pours early to beat summer heat, and planning cure time around deliveries. Dumpster pads and loading areas get thicker sections and heavier steel, because trucks drop and drag steel containers on them every week. Old concrete that fails at a joint can often come out panel by panel instead of all at once.

Questions
Commercial Concrete questions
How do you handle de-icing salt on commercial walks?
Commercial walks take more salt than any driveway, so the mix, the finish and the cure matter. Air-entrained concrete, a broom finish that is not overworked, a full cure and a penetrating sealer afterward all slow down scaling. New concrete should not see salt its first winter; sand gives traction in the meantime.
How are commercial concrete jobs priced?
From the plans and the site. Quantities, thicknesses and steel come off the drawings, then access, phasing, after-hours work, traffic control, removal of old concrete and inspection scheduling get added. A free estimate lays those out line by line.
Who handles permits and inspections on commercial work?
Commercial work usually runs through the city's building or engineering department, and pours get inspected at the stages the permit sets. Work in the public right-of-way, like a street-side sidewalk or a new curb cut, needs its own permit from that city. 811 gets called before any excavation.
Can you keep my business open during the work?
In most cases, yes, by phasing it. Entrances get poured one side at a time, walkways get taped and signed, and pours get scheduled around your hours where possible. We plan that with you before the first saw cut.
Do you take on small commercial repairs?
Yes. A few broken sidewalk panels, a cracked dumpster pad or a trip edge at an entrance are common jobs. Damaged panels are saw-cut out and replaced so the rest of the slab stays in service.
