Commercial Concrete Services
Professional concrete solutions for businesses that need durability, safety, and minimal downtime.
Commercial Concrete Done Right
Commercial concrete work demands a different level of planning and execution than residential projects. Your business can't afford extended downtime. Your customers and employees need safe, accessible surfaces that meet code requirements. And your concrete needs to handle heavy loads, constant traffic, and years of use without major maintenance.
As professional concrete contractors serving Riverview, FL businesses, we understand these challenges. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your operations. We follow all commercial building codes and ADA requirements. And we use commercial-grade materials and techniques designed for the tougher demands of business properties.
What Sets Commercial Concrete Apart
- •Higher strength requirements: Commercial concrete typically uses 4000-5000 PSI mixes versus 3000 PSI for residential
- •Thicker slabs: 6-8 inches or more depending on expected loads
- •Enhanced reinforcement: Heavier rebar grids or fiber reinforcement for maximum strength
- •Strict code compliance: Must meet local, state, and federal building codes
- •ADA accessibility: Proper slopes, smooth transitions, and tactile warnings where required
- •Faster timelines: Commercial projects often have tight deadlines we must meet
- •Professional documentation: Detailed plans, permits, and inspections throughout the project
Commercial Concrete Services We Provide
We handle a wide range of commercial concrete projects for businesses throughout Riverview and surrounding areas. Here are our most common commercial services.
Parking Lots and Drive Lanes
Your parking lot creates the first impression for customers and needs to handle constant vehicle traffic. We install new parking lots or replace deteriorated asphalt with durable concrete. Concrete parking lots last longer than asphalt, need less maintenance, and stay looking better over time. We handle all aspects including proper grading for drainage, heavy-duty base preparation, thick reinforced concrete, and line striping. We can work in phases to keep portions of your lot open during construction so your business keeps operating.
Loading Docks and Warehouse Floors
Industrial facilities need floors that can handle forklifts, pallet jacks, and heavy equipment. We install high-strength concrete floors designed for industrial use. This includes extra-thick slabs, appropriate reinforcement, and finishes that resist wear from equipment traffic. Loading dock areas get special attention for proper slope and drainage. We can also apply epoxy coatings or sealers that resist oil, chemicals, and make the floor easier to clean.
Sidewalks and ADA-Compliant Walkways
Commercial properties need sidewalks and walkways that meet strict accessibility requirements. We install ADA-compliant concrete that has the right width, slope, and surface texture. This includes proper curb ramps with detectable warning surfaces, smooth transitions between different areas, and adequate width for wheelchair access. We make sure your walkways are safe for everyone and meet all legal requirements.
Building Foundations and Slabs
We install commercial building foundations that support everything from small retail buildings to large warehouses. Commercial foundations require engineering specifications, proper permits, and inspections throughout construction. We work with engineers and architects to ensure the foundation meets structural requirements. This includes proper depth, reinforcement, anchor bolts, and any special features like plumbing trenches or utility conduits.
Concrete Pads and Equipment Foundations
Commercial equipment like HVAC units, generators, transformers, and machinery need solid foundations. We install concrete pads designed for the specific equipment weight and vibration. These pads must be perfectly level and sized according to manufacturer specifications. We can also install housekeeping pads for dumpsters, covered storage areas, or outdoor equipment staging.
Decorative Commercial Concrete
Retail centers, restaurants, hotels, and professional offices benefit from attractive decorative concrete that enhances their brand. We install stamped concrete for entryways, patios, and outdoor dining areas. Stained or polished concrete creates modern, upscale interiors. These decorative finishes combine beauty with the durability commercial properties need.
How We Manage Commercial Projects
Commercial concrete projects require careful planning and coordination. Here's how we make sure your project goes smoothly from start to finish.
Initial Consultation and Site Assessment
We start by understanding your needs and evaluating your site. What type of business are you running? What loads will the concrete need to support? Are there any access limitations or existing utilities we need to work around? We look at soil conditions, drainage, and any code requirements specific to your property type. This assessment allows us to design the right solution and provide an accurate quote.
Engineering and Permitting
Most commercial projects require engineering plans and building permits. We work with structural engineers to develop plans that meet code requirements and your budget. We handle the permit application process and schedule required inspections. This paperwork takes time but ensures your project is done right and passes all inspections. Having everything properly permitted also protects your investment and avoids problems when you sell or lease the property.
Scheduling and Communication
We understand you need to keep your business running during construction. We develop a detailed project schedule that minimizes disruption. For parking lots or access areas, we often work in phases so parts of your facility stay open. We can also work during off-hours like nights or weekends if that works better for your operation. Throughout the project, we maintain clear communication about progress, any issues, and upcoming milestones. You'll always know what to expect and when.
Quality Control and Final Inspection
Commercial projects require documentation and quality control throughout construction. We maintain records of concrete testing, compaction tests, and inspection approvals. Before we consider the project complete, we walk through everything with you to ensure you're satisfied. We address any concerns and make sure all finish details are perfect. You receive documentation showing that all work meets specifications and code requirements.
