Our Services
From residential driveways to commercial loading docks, we handle every type of concrete work in Lawrence with skilled craftsmanship and reliable service.
Concrete Work in Lawrence Requires Urban Experience
Working in Lawrence means dealing with tight spaces, narrow alleyways, and older infrastructure. Many properties downtown have limited access for concrete trucks and equipment. We use smaller mixers and wheelbarrows when needed, and we always coordinate with neighbors to minimize disruption. Your project moves forward smoothly even in challenging locations.
The soil conditions here vary dramatically. Near the Merrimack River, properties deal with higher water tables and softer ground. We test drainage before every pour and adjust our base preparation accordingly. A driveway on Common Street needs different prep than one in the hills near South Lawrence. We have poured concrete in both areas and know exactly what works.
Many customers call us to replace failing concrete that was installed years ago without proper reinforcement. Lawrence sees heavy street traffic, and your driveway or walkway takes a beating from delivery trucks and city plows. We use steel reinforcement and thicker slabs to ensure your concrete holds up to real-world conditions.
We Handle Multi-Family and Commercial Projects
Lawrence has a growing number of multi-family buildings and commercial spaces. Last year we replaced the parking area for a three-family home on Haverhill Street. The old asphalt was crumbling, and tenants were complaining. We removed it, installed a proper gravel base, and poured reinforced concrete parking pads that handle daily traffic from multiple vehicles.
Commercial work is a big part of what we do in Lawrence. We recently finished sidewalk repairs for a business on Essex Street. The old concrete had heaved from tree roots and created tripping hazards. We removed the damaged sections, addressed the root issue, and poured new sidewalks that meet ADA requirements. The business owner was happy because we finished on schedule without disrupting their customers.
Whether you own a single-family home or manage commercial property, we bring the same commitment to quality. Every job gets proper planning, skilled execution, and materials that last. Your concrete work should add value to your property, not create headaches.
Quality Concrete That Fits Your Budget
We know Lawrence homeowners work hard for their money. You want concrete that lasts without breaking the bank. We offer transparent pricing and can work with you to phase projects if needed. Maybe you start with a new front walkway this year and add a patio next spring. We can plan for that and ensure everything ties together seamlessly.
Standard finishes like broom or trowel are affordable and durable. If you want something more decorative, stamped concrete costs more upfront but eliminates the maintenance of pavers or brick. We give you options and explain the pros and cons of each. No pressure, no upselling. Just honest advice from contractors who live and work in your community.
We also handle concrete repairs if a full replacement is not in the budget yet. Crack filling, resurfacing, and partial slab replacement can extend the life of your existing concrete. Call us for an assessment, and we will tell you what makes sense for your situation.
Our Process
Free On-Site Consultation
We come to your property, measure the area, and discuss your goals. This includes checking access for equipment, testing soil drainage, and looking for any existing issues that need attention. You get a written quote with a detailed breakdown of costs and a realistic timeline. No hidden fees or surprise charges later.
We Work Year-Round in Lawrence
Most contractors shut down in late fall and do not start again until April. We pour concrete year-round using cold-weather techniques when needed. That means heated blankets, calcium chloride admixtures, and careful monitoring of temperatures. If you need emergency repairs or have a commercial project with a tight deadline, we can make it happen.
That said, spring and fall are still the best times for residential projects. The ground is easier to excavate, and concrete cures at an ideal rate. Summer heat can cause issues with rapid drying, and winter cold requires extra steps. If your project is flexible, we recommend scheduling between April and June or September and November.
No matter when you call, we respond quickly. Lawrence property owners need contractors who show up on time and finish the job as promised. That is exactly what you get with SteelHands Methuen Concrete. We are local, reliable, and committed to doing excellent work in your neighborhood.
