Our Services
We handle all types of concrete work for Annandale homes and businesses, from routine repairs to complete installations.
Concrete Repairs in Annandale's Older Neighborhoods
Properties in Annandale Acres, Sleepy Hollow, and around Woodburn Elementary were mostly built in the 1960s and 70s. The original concrete from that era is showing its age through widespread cracking, surface deterioration, and settlement issues. We replace dozens of driveways and walkways each year in these neighborhoods, and the problems are consistent: thin concrete poured directly on clay soil with minimal or no reinforcement.
When we tear out old concrete in Annandale, we often find no gravel base underneath, just bare soil. The concrete was poured thinner than modern standards require. Over decades, the clay soil expanded and contracted with seasonal moisture changes, causing the concrete to crack and settle unevenly. Modern replacement work includes proper base preparation, adequate thickness, and reinforcement that makes the new concrete last two to three times longer.
Many customers in Annandale try DIY concrete repairs or hire unlicensed workers to save money. These patches usually fail within a year because they don't address the underlying cause of the damage. We take the time to diagnose why your concrete failed in the first place, then fix both the symptom and the root problem so you're not calling us back in a few years.
Working with Annandale's Tight Lot Layouts
The compact lots throughout Annandale present access challenges for concrete trucks and equipment. Side yards are often too narrow for trucks to drive through, and mature trees prevent us from bringing equipment across lawns. We use pump trucks to move concrete from the street to backyard patios and use smaller mixers for jobs where standard trucks can't physically reach the site.
Properties near Braddock Road and Columbia Pike have shared driveways and minimal setbacks between homes. When we pour concrete in these tight spaces, we protect adjacent properties with barriers and tarps. We also coordinate with neighbors to move vehicles and avoid blocking access during the work. These logistics matter as much as the technical concrete work in dense residential areas.
HOA communities in Annandale like Ravensworth Farm and Williamsburg Manor have approval processes for exterior work. We know what documentation these committees require and can help you submit complete applications that get approved quickly. Once you have HOA approval, we typically complete residential concrete projects in one to two days depending on scope and weather.
Commercial Concrete on Little River Turnpike
The commercial corridor along Little River Turnpike includes restaurants, retail stores, medical offices, and service businesses that need durable concrete for customer entrances and parking areas. Property managers call us to repair trip hazards, replace cracked sidewalk sections, and resurface areas where heavy delivery traffic has damaged existing concrete. We schedule work during off-hours to keep businesses operational.
Strip malls and standalone buildings in Annandale often have parking lot drainage issues that create puddles and ice patches. When we install or repair commercial concrete, we grade everything to direct water toward storm drains and away from building foundations. Proper drainage prevents premature deterioration and reduces slip-and-fall liability for property owners.
Loading zones at retail and warehouse buildings need concrete strong enough to handle repeated impacts from delivery trucks backing in and pallets being dragged across the surface. We pour commercial-grade concrete with higher compressive strength and thicker profiles in these high-stress areas. This costs more upfront but eliminates the cycle of constant repairs that weaker concrete requires.
