Commercial and residential concrete in Shepherdsville

The warehouses and distribution buildings along I-65 in Shepherdsville put concrete to work. Truck dock aprons, dumpster pads and trailer parking areas take loads that asphalt often can't handle, especially where trailers sit on landing gear or trucks turn sharply at the dock.

Heavy-duty concrete is about thickness, reinforcement and base. We size the slab for the loads it will carry, compact a solid stone base and place joints so the slab can move without breaking up under traffic. When an existing dock apron is failing, we cut out and replace the broken sections so the dock can stay in service with as little downtime as possible.

Not every Shepherdsville job is industrial. Homeowners in Bullitt County's subdivisions call us for driveways, patios and walks, and local businesses along KY 44 and KY 61 need sidewalks, entrance landings and ADA ramps. We handle both, with the same attention to base preparation and drainage.

Drainage matters in the Salt River valley, where low ground holds water after heavy rains. We set grades that move water away from buildings and off slabs, which protects the concrete and whatever it is next to.

Concrete work at a busy industrial site has to be planned around shipping schedules. We sequence the demolition, base work and pour so trucks can keep moving, and we tell you exactly how long each section must stay closed while the concrete gains strength.

When a site also needs asphalt work, our paving division can handle it in the same contract. Our Louisville shop is a short drive up I-65. Call (502) 410-4080 for a free estimate.

Questions from Shepherdsville customers

Can you replace a dock apron without shutting down the dock?

We can often phase the replacement so part of the dock stays in use. We'll plan the sequence with you before we start.

How long before trucks can use new concrete?

Heavy truck traffic needs more curing time than cars. We'll give you a specific reopening schedule based on the mix, the thickness and the weather.
