Two crews running daily. Tampa shop, Brandon yard for materials and equipment. We hold the radius tight on purpose — 35 minutes from base. Concrete cures on a clock, and longer drive times mean we're racing the cure window. Manatee and Sarasota are referred out to a partner crew.
Concrete pours have a 90-minute window from batching at the plant to placement on your forms. That window is why we hold the radius. A truck stuck in I-275 traffic past the cure window means concrete that's already starting to set when it hits your forms — which is how slabs get cold joints and weak spots.
If your city isn't on the list, give us a call before driving. We sometimes do edge-city work for repeat customers, but Manatee and Sarasota are typically referred out.
Generally no — concrete cure timing makes the drive economically painful. We refer Sarasota/Bradenton work to a partner crew based in Palmetto (we know their finishers, they pour to similar standards). Lakeland we'll occasionally take on larger commercial work, but residential is referred to a Polk County partner.
Small-to-medium commercial — yes. Restaurant outdoor patios, retail strip-center entryway pads, light-industrial loading dock pads, HOA pool deck refurbishments. We don't pursue big-box retail or municipal work — that's a different trade and we'd rather refer to a contractor that focuses on it.
Standard residential work: 3-5 weeks from contract signing to pour day. The rate-limiting steps are the permit (1-2 weeks for Hillsborough/Pinellas) and the concrete supplier scheduling (we order by the truckload from Cemex or Argos — popular pour days book 7-10 days out). Spring (March-May) and fall (September-November) are our busiest seasons.
No trip fees inside our published coverage. No fuel surcharges. The estimate quoted on-site is the price on the invoice. Outer-radius work (case-by-case) does include a documented mobilization charge for the pump truck and crew, disclosed in writing before mobilization.
We don't pour in active rain — water in the mix weakens the slab significantly. We watch the radar the morning of the pour and reschedule if there's anything over 30% chance in the 4-hour window after placement. Customers get same-day notice. Most pours happen on dry days; rain pushes us 1-2 days, never longer than a week.
Yes, on every job. Hillsborough and Pinellas both require permits for driveways, retaining walls over 4 feet, and most patio work over 200 sq ft. Permit cost is passed through at city's stated fee. Patricia handles the entire permit lifecycle — submission, plan review, inspections, final close-out. You don't deal with the city directly unless you want to.
Marco walks every quote in person. Standard turnaround is 5 business days from form submission to estimate visit. Existing customers can call directly for faster scheduling.
