Concrete Contractor services in Baton Rouge
Baton Rouge stands on a bluff, the first high ground above the Mississippi delta, and its soil is silty on top with expansive clay beneath. That clay is why so many slabs in the city crack in a dry summer. The housing is far more varied than in Ascension Parish. Older areas such as the Garden District and Spanish Town have raised pier houses, narrow ribbon drives and live oaks that have lifted the walks for decades. Mid-century ranch homes fill Broadmoor and Southdowns, and subdivisions like Shenandoah have wide drives on post-tensioned slabs. Sidewalks matter more here than in the rural towns we serve, because the city-parish code puts their upkeep on the owner of the lot. We work mainly on the south and east sides of the city, closest to Gonzales, and we plan each job around trees, clay and the street frontage.

Permits and local rules
The city-parish code makes the owner of a lot on a street with sidewalks responsible for keeping the sidewalk in front of it in repair, including replacing uneven and broken sections. Work in the public right of way and structural slabs are permitted through the city-parish, and we confirm the requirement for your address.
