Concrete built for the way you use your property in Waltham, MA
A&B Waltham Concrete plans and pours concrete for homes and small commercial lots, and we work out the ground underneath and where the water goes before anything gets poured.
Your property can do more. The right concrete makes room for it.
Most calls start with something you see every day. A driveway that's cracked and sinking at one corner, a patio where water pools after rain, or steps that have started chipping and rocking. Usually the surface isn't the real problem. It's the ground under it, or water running where nobody planned for it to go.
I come out to look myself, and I ask a lot of questions about how you use the space and where the water goes. Then we plan the base, the mix and the timing of the pour around what I find.
One team does the whole job. From estimate to clean-up.
When the person who looks at your job is the one who plans it, less gets lost between the estimate and pour day. I do the estimate, our crew lead runs the work, and I'm back on site at the key steps, so the questions you asked me get answered by the people pouring.
- The estimate and the plan from one person
- Our crew lead running the work
- A written quote showing what's in and out
- City office and permit steps sorted before work
Ask the questions first, then pour.
From steps to foundations. Concrete work in and around Waltham.
We take on small walkways and whole foundations, and every job starts with me on your site. Price and timing mostly turn on size, access, what's coming out and what the ground needs, and your written estimate shows what's included.
Concrete driveway building
A new or replacement driveway. We dig out and pack the base first, since that's what carries your car's weight for years.
Concrete patio construction
A new patio off the back door, or a replacement for one that's sinking or holding water, sloped so rain runs away from your house.
Stamped concrete services
Stamped concrete is pressed with a pattern while it's still wet, so a patio or walkway takes on the look of stone, brick or slate.
Concrete sidewalk building
Walkways to your door and sidewalks along the front, with grooves called control joints cut in so any cracking follows a line we picked.
Garage floor concrete
When a garage floor is cracked, heaving or dusting off, we break it out and pour a new slab sized for the cars and storage it'll carry.
Decorative concrete
Color, exposed stone, borders and custom finishes that make plain concrete fit the house. It's the same base work underneath, just a different top.
Concrete retaining walls
Poured walls that hold back a slope so you get a usable, level yard. Drainage behind the wall matters as much as the wall itself.
Concrete floor installation
Interior slab floors for basements, workshops, additions and small commercial spaces, poured flat and finished to suit what goes on top.
Concrete pool decks
The deck around your pool needs a finish that grips when it's wet and a slope that carries splash water away from the pool.
Concrete steps construction
Front and back steps, poured new or rebuilt when the old ones chip, settle or pull away from the house.
Slab foundation building
A slab foundation is a single pour the building sits right on, common for additions, garages and outbuildings.
Foundation installation
Poured foundation walls for new homes, additions and rebuilds, set on footings and built to the engineer's plan when the job has one.
Concrete parking lot building
For owners of small commercial lots, we pour parking areas with the thickness, slope and joints that daily traffic and runoff call for.
Concrete footings
Footings are the wide concrete base under a wall, deck post or addition that spreads its weight into the ground. They go in first.
Foundation raising
When a house is settling or needs more headroom underneath, we lift it, then pour new foundation work under it. It takes planning, which we like.
Concrete cutting
We cut new door and window openings in foundation walls and remove sections of slab with saws, leaving clean, straight edges.
Every job gets planned first. Then we pour it.
We set out to give every customer concrete that still looks right years from now. That mostly comes down to what you can't see once it's poured. The base is hidden on day one, so it's the first place a budget gets cut, and it's the one place I'd tell you not to cut. I'd rather spend an extra hour planning the ground, the mix and the drainage than rush a pour.
