William Wallace Concrete Residential Services

Residential Jobs:

Foundations:

We can excavate and in stall your new foundation. a typical foundation is a 1 foot deep by 2 foot wide footer with two 1/2 inch rebar running horizontal on wire chairs set every two feet. You will have 1/2 inch vertical rebar every two foot, 4 foot in length with a 90 degree bend with a 1 foot tail total length of rebar will be 5 foot in length. The concrete strength should be a minimum of 3,500 psi.

Walls:

We can install several types of wall systems. A typical wall system would consist of the type of form you would prefer, whether it be wood, steel, foam, etc. A more popular form is steel with a plywood face connected with wedge pins. After selecting your form we will tie the vertical rebar from your footer up within six inches of the top of your wall and tie two foot rebar, horizontal on center or per the specs of the architect. We will pour a minimum of 4,000 psi of concrete.

Sidewalks:

A typical sidewalk has 4 inches of concrete for the thickness. First we start out with a stone base and install 1/2 inch rebar, 4 foot on center and pour 4,000 psi of concrete. We then cut control joints every 4 foot to control cracking. We finish with a light broom or decorative design, and a coat of high strength sealer.

Patios:

A typical patio has 4 inches of concrete for the thickness. First we start out with a stone base and install 1/2 inch rebar, 4 foot on center and pour 4,000 psi of concrete. We then cut control joints every 4 foot to control cracking. We finish with a light broom or decorative design, and a coat of high strength sealer.

Driveways:

A typical driveway has six inches of concrete for the thickness. First we start out with a stone base and install 1/2 inch rebar, 4 foot on center and pour 4,000 psi of concrete. We then cut control joints every 4 foot to control cracking. We finish with a light broom or decorative design, and a coat of high strength sealer.

Decorative Stamped Concrete:

We install over 12 different patterns and over 27 different colors. We start out with a stone base and install 1/2 inch rebar, 4 foot on center and pour 4,000 psi of concrete. We will apply a color of your choice in the concrete, cut control joints to control cracking, stamp the pattern of choice, pressure and acid wash the concrete, detail and apply two coats of high strength sealer.

Acid Staining:

We can add several different colors to an existing or new concrete floor. Acid staining is a great way to spruce up an old patio, garage floor or anything new, as a accent of a complete area. Acid staining changes color due to different types of materials in the concrete so it may not be the exact color you thought so be careful if you can not live with a little shade difference and remember it does not cover up existing cracks.

Engraving and Sawing Designs:

We can take a plain or stamped floor and saw or engrave a tile look, custom logos, circles, medallions, or just about anything into concrete. We can also accent it with stains, epoxy, and/or sealers.

Decorative Walls:

We can take a plain wall and make it look like a beautiful and custom stone wall. With a cement based stamped wall system, we can shade different stones to make it look like a real stone wall.

We can do just about anything with concrete, so if there is something you want that is not listed on the website, just ask. I am sure we can make it happen.
