Concrete FAQs

How soon can you start my concrete project?

After the on-site estimate, most projects are scheduled within a few weeks, depending on the season, project size, and crew availability. ALB Concrete Solutions confirms timing during your written estimate.

Concrete FAQs

Why does ALB use a higher-grade concrete mix?

A stronger mix with the right admixtures resists the cracking that comes from hot summers and cold snaps. It costs more per pour, and it is one reason ALB slabs hold up better than a low-bid job that uses the cheapest mix available.

Concrete FAQs

Will my new driveway or patio crack?

Properly placed concrete can still get hairline movement, which is why control joints are cut to direct it where you will not notice. What ALB works to prevent is structural cracking from a poor base, rushed placement, or weak prep.

04

Do you handle demolition and haul-off?

Yes. Tearing out the old slab, hauling it away, rebuilding the base, and pouring fresh can all run through one coordinated team, so you are not coordinating a demolition company and a concrete company separately.

05

How do you handle payment?

Most projects are billed 50% at signing and 50% at completion, with the scope and price spelled out in the proposal before work begins.
