Heartland Boston Concrete Company is a concrete contractor in Boston, MA. Here's who we are, how we work and what you can expect from the first call to the last cleanup.
I learned this trade working beside older finishers who cared more about the prep than the finish, and that stuck with me. I started out pouring walkways and steps for neighbors on weekends, went full time after a few years of that, and we've been in business as Heartland Boston Concrete Company since 2017. Most of our calls still come from homeowners and small property owners in Boston and the cities around it, and we still work the way we did for those neighbors, with plain answers and a site left clean.
What's under the concrete matters more to me than what's on top, because that's what decides how it holds up. When a budget gets tight, the base is the first thing people want to trim, since nobody sees it once the slab is poured, and I'll try to talk you out of it. A nice broom finish, the light texture that keeps a slab from getting slick, won't save a driveway sitting on loose dirt, so if money has to come out somewhere, I'd rather it come off the extras than the ground underneath.
I come out to look at your driveway or patio myself and write the estimate, and then our own crew does the work with me running it. So the person who heard what you wanted is the one standing there on the day of the pour.
Most cracking and sinking starts under the slab, so we dig out and pack the subgrade, the soil and stone the concrete sits on, instead of just raking it level. We also check where your water runs so the slab falls away from the house.
Your written estimate spells out what's in the price, like hauling away the old concrete, so you can lay it next to other bids and compare them on equal terms. If a line doesn't make sense, ask me, and I'll explain it as many times as you need.
Call (857) 770-0722 or fill out the form on our contact page and tell us what's going on, like a cracked driveway, a sinking patio or water pooling by the steps. We reply within one business day to set a time to come look.
I look at the slab, the ground around it and where the water goes, then write up a free estimate. The size, how much old concrete comes out and how much base work the ground needs usually move the price most, and there's no obligation to book.
Before we dig, we check with the city about any permits your job may need and help you get the paperwork in order. Then our crew digs out, packs the base, pours, cuts control joints so any cracks fall in straight lines we chose, and cleans up.
