Our Services
Comprehensive concrete services for Salem homes and businesses, delivered by experienced contractors who cross the border to serve you.
Concrete Work for Salem Properties
Salem has sandy, well-drained soil in most areas. That is good news for concrete because proper drainage prevents settling and frost heave. However, sandy soil still needs a solid compacted base. We install at least 6 inches of crushed stone for driveways and compact it thoroughly. Skipping this step leads to cracks and sunken sections within a year or two.
Many Salem homes were built in the 1970s through 1990s and sit on larger lots compared to Massachusetts suburbs. Your driveway might be longer or include turnarounds for multiple vehicles. We handle these larger projects efficiently and keep costs reasonable by planning the pour carefully and using proper equipment.
New Hampshire winters are just as tough as Massachusetts. Your concrete needs air entrainment, proper curing, and adequate thickness to handle freeze-thaw cycles. We use the same high-quality materials and techniques in Salem that we use everywhere else. Your concrete work gets the durability it needs to last decades.
Serving Salem Businesses and Retail
Route 28 runs through the heart of Salem and features heavy retail and commercial traffic. We pour commercial concrete for parking lots, loading zones, and sidewalks that handle constant use. These projects require thicker slabs, higher-strength concrete, and proper reinforcement.
We recently completed sidewalk repairs for a shopping plaza near the Massachusetts border. The old concrete had cracked from heavy foot traffic and tree root intrusion. We removed the damaged sections, addressed the root issue, and poured new ADA-compliant sidewalks. The property manager was impressed with our professionalism and how quickly we finished.
Medical offices, professional buildings, and industrial spaces also need reliable concrete contractors. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your business operations. Your project gets scheduled clearly, completed on time, and cleaned up thoroughly when we leave.
Creating Great Outdoor Spaces in Salem
Salem homeowners love spending time outdoors. A concrete patio extends your usable space and creates a spot for grilling, entertaining, or relaxing. Concrete requires minimal maintenance compared to wood decks. No annual staining, no rotting boards, and no splinters. Just sweep it off and enjoy.
We can pour simple rectangular patios or create custom designs that flow with your yard. Add curves, multiple levels, or integrated seating walls. Stamped concrete gives you the look of natural stone at a fraction of the cost. These finishes hold up beautifully to New England weather and stay attractive year after year.
Walkways connect your outdoor spaces and protect your lawn from foot traffic. A well-placed walkway from your driveway to the front door improves curb appeal and function. Side walks provide access to gates, sheds, or gardens. We design these paths to be practical, attractive, and properly sloped for drainage.
