General
Concrete flatwork is the process of forming, pouring, leveling, and finishing flat concrete surfaces. These surfaces are usually placed at ground level and are designed to handle foot traffic, vehicles, furniture, equipment, or outdoor use.
Common examples include:
- Driveways
- Sidewalks
- Patios
- Garage floors
- Basement floors
- Pool decks
- Walkways
- Concrete slabs
The word “flatwork” separates these projects from vertical concrete work, such as walls, columns, foundations, or retaining walls. While the surface may look simple, good concrete flatwork requires proper planning, grading, base preparation, finishing, and curing.
