Concrete Is Our Wheelhouse.
Concrete is one of the things Tharaldson Construction is known for. A new driveway, a patio off the back door, a sidewalk out to the street, a slab for a shed or a pad for equipment: every one of those jobs comes down to the same thing, and it's the part you never see. Concrete poured over soft or poorly compacted ground will settle, crack and hold water no matter how good the finish looks on day one.
That's why one crew handles your project from start to finish: dig-out, forms, base, pour and finish. The important steps don't get handed off to someone you've never met.
What We Pour
- Driveways and parking pads
- Sidewalks and walkways
- Concrete patios
- Pool decks, for new pools and remodels
- Slabs, footings and pads
- Concrete steps
- Stamped and decorative concrete
Built to Stay Flat.
Middle Tennessee yards are full of red clay, and clay swells when it's wet and shrinks when it dries out. Good concrete work plans for that movement instead of hoping it won't happen.
- Compacted base underneath, so it doesn't settle or heave
- Reinforced where it counts
- Clean control joints, so the slab has a planned place to move
- Shaped so water runs off instead of sitting
- Broom, smooth, stamped or decorative finishes
Want more than plain gray? Stamped and decorative finishes can give a patio, walkway or pool deck the look of stone or pavers while keeping the strength of a poured slab. We'll go over finish options when we walk your yard.
Part of a Bigger Project?
Because we also build custom pools and hardscapes, concrete is often one piece of a larger job: a deck around a new pool, a walkway that ties the patio to the driveway, or footings and a pad for an outdoor kitchen or pavilion. One crew, one written quote, one schedule.
