Keep reading to learn more about building pads and our construction process.
The purpose of a building pad is to provide a stable base for any buildings constructed on a given area of land. In that regard, a concrete building pad is similar to a foundation, but it is much larger, and it is installed before the foundation can be laid. The process of building a concrete pad begins with analysis of the soil. Tennessee is a state known for frequent seismic activity, which means the soil under your building is likely to shift over time, which could lead to serious damage unless you take steps to prevent it. Then, our team will compact the soil and adjust the grading as necessary before installing the concrete over the top. Using concrete building pads is a highly effective way to protect your building from the damaging effects of soil shifts.
We are proud to serve the Spring City, Tennessee area, and we want to help you do what’s best for your building. If you are looking for experts you can trust to install concrete building pads, just give us a call.

What gives concrete building pads their strength?
