What Services Do Concrete Companies Offer?
Concrete Pouring
Most concrete companies provide pouring services for adding a new patio, driveway, and more. First, the contractors consider Wyoming's weather and climate to use the best concrete for local conditions. The contractors will then pour the concrete and vibrate the mixture to remove air bubbles, which compromises the concrete structure.
Concrete Cleaning
Concrete cleaners use several methods to refresh your concrete, such as brushing, chemicals, and pressure washing. Cleaning makes your concrete look better and last longer.
Concrete Sealing
Sealing concrete helps protect it from UV radiation, freezing, water, and other types of damage. Sealing concrete can help you save money in the long run on concrete repairs or replacements. Bring in a professional to make sure the sealant adheres properly.
Concrete Reinforcement
Contractors often add grids of steel bars, rods, or mesh before pouring concrete. The added framework absorbs pressure from heavy loads and vibrations.
Concrete Repair
Damaged concrete can be unappealing and even be an unsafe tripping hazard. A concrete company can evaluate the damage and provide the best course of action. Techniques such as epoxy injections, patching, resurfacing, and rebar replacement can restore appearance, functionality, and strength to distressed areas. This prevents having to replace the whole slab.

How To Choose a Concrete Professional
Review Portfolios
Ask to see examples of a provider’s past projects. Verify that the company has examples of the type of work you need done.
Check Licensing and Insurance
A license is not required by the state of Minnesota to carry out concrete work, but may be required locally. Your provider should be properly bonded and insured in case of injuries or accidents.
Look for Trade Group Memberships
Membership in a trade organization demonstrates that the contractor is committed to quality work and professional development. Examples of concrete trade organizations are the American Concrete Pavement Association (ACPA) or the American Society of Concrete Contractors (ASCC).
Read Customer Reviews
Contractors with a long history of good reviews tend to provide quality work and customer service. Read customer reviews on websites such as the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and Trustpilot and ask people you know for recommendations.
Compare Multiple Quotes
Ask for a detailed estimate from at least three contractors. This helps you determine the typical price in Wyoming for your kind of project. Be wary of contractors offering extremely high or low estimates.
Ask About Warranties
Ask what warranties your provider offers for both labor and materials. Make sure to get all warranty information in writing.
