Concrete Contractor services in French Settlement
French Settlement is in Livingston Parish, not Ascension, and it is a village with its own mayor. It lies along Highway 16 beside the Amite River, and river life defines it: camps, boat sheds, houses on tall piers and yards that go under when the river rises. Concrete here is often poured under or beside a raised house, as a parking slab, a walk to the stairs or a pad for a boat trailer. Those slabs will be flooded sooner or later, so they are built to drain and to stay put when water moves across them. Thickened edges, steel and a firm base matter more here than a fancy finish. The ground is soft river bottom soil in the low areas and firmer on the ridge that the highway follows. We look closely at access, because many lots are narrow and reach back toward the water.
