About Wilmington Concrete Contractor Pros
Wilmington Concrete Contractor Pros handles residential concrete in Wilmington, Delaware and the surrounding part of New Castle County. The work ranges from a four-foot front walk on a city block to a two-car driveway on a sloped suburban lot, along with patios, stamped surfaces, slabs and repairs.
Two things shape nearly every job here. The first is age: Census figures summarized by Point2Homes put the median Wilmington home at 1946, and more than 40 percent were built in 1939 or earlier. A lot of the concrete on those lots has already been patched, topped or lifted by roots, sometimes more than once. The second is winter. January lows average below freezing, so outdoor slabs freeze and thaw again and again and soak up road salt.
What you can expect from us
A diagnosis before a price. When old concrete has failed, we say why: water, a weak base, roots or salt. That decides whether a repair is worth doing.
Everything written down. The estimate lists tear-out, base depth, slab thickness, reinforcement, finish and sealing on separate lines, so two quotes can be compared fairly.
A slab built for this climate. Exterior pours use an air-entrained mix on compacted stone, pitched to drain, with joints planned before the truck arrives.
Clear dates. You know when you can walk on the new concrete, when you can park on it and when it is ready to seal.
Rules checked up front. Where a curb cut, a public sidewalk or a state road entrance is involved, we find out what the City of Wilmington, New Castle County or DelDOT requires before the job is scheduled.
