Concrete services in Edmond, OK
Modern Edmond Concrete is a concrete contractor in Edmond, OK, and we handle 16 kinds of work, from a new driveway to cutting out an old slab. Most calls start with cracks, sinking or water pooling where it shouldn't, or with a plan for something new. The price turns mostly on the size of the job, how much old concrete has to come out, how much work the ground needs before we pour and the finish you pick. The schedule turns on permits, ground prep and curing, the wait while new concrete firms up before it takes weight. I'll measure on site and put what's included in a written estimate.
We build new concrete driveways and replace tired ones, digging out and packing the subgrade, the ground the slab sits on, so it holds up under your cars.
Want room out back for a grill and a few chairs? We pour concrete patios sized to your yard and sloped so rain runs away from the house.
Stamped concrete gives a patio, walk or pool deck the look of stone, brick or tile, pressed into the surface while it's still wet, with color worked in.
We replace front walks and sidewalks that have heaved into trip hazards, pouring a flat path with a broom finish, a brushed texture that grips underfoot.
When a garage floor is cracked, sunken or chipping, we break out the old slab, fix the base under it and pour a new floor built for your cars.
Decorative concrete adds color, texture and borders to a new pour, for homeowners and businesses who want something warmer than plain gray at the door or out back.
A retaining wall holds a slope in place so your yard stops washing out. We pour concrete walls with steel inside and drainage behind them.
We pour interior concrete floors for shops, additions, barns and commercial spaces, with rebar, the steel rods that hold a slab together, and a finish suited to the use.
Putting in a pool or replacing the deck around one? We pour pool decks with a slip-resistant finish, sloped so splash water drains off instead of sitting.
We form and pour concrete steps for front porches, back doors and slopes, with each rise matched to the next and a textured top so feet don't slide.
We build slab foundations for new homes, additions, shops and garages, starting with a dug-out, packed base and steel set in place before any concrete arrives.
For a new house, addition or outbuilding, we install poured foundations, footings and walls, laid out to your plans so the framing goes up square and level.
Business and property owners call us for concrete parking lots and drive lanes, built heavier where trucks turn and graded so water leaves the lot instead of pooling.
Footings are the wide concrete base under a wall, porch, deck post or addition. We dig and pour them to the depth and width your plans call for.
When part of a slab or foundation has sunk and floors slope or doors stick, we lift it back toward level and fill the voids beneath it.
Need a doorway through a wall, a trench in a slab or a clean edge for a repair? We saw-cut concrete straight, using water to hold down dust.
Why people in Edmond hire us for concrete
Most of our calls come from homeowners, with some small business and property owners mixed in. Here's how we work, and why it matters for the concrete you'll live with.
One person from estimate to pour
I'm the one who comes out, measures and writes your estimate, and I'm on site with our small crew when your concrete gets poured, so nothing gets lost between the bid and the job.
Ask all the questions you want
We'll walk you through the plan in plain words before a truck ever shows up, and I'm happy to explain it twice. I'd rather you understand your job than just sign for it.
The ground gets the most work
The base is hidden on day one, so it's the first thing a tight budget cuts. I won't cut it, because what's underneath decides whether your slab settles and cracks.
Estimates you can compare
Our written estimates list what's included, like prep, hauling off old concrete and cleanup, so you can line bids up fairly. Call (405) 285-3167 to get one on the calendar.
How a concrete job runs with us
Here's what to expect from your first call to the last walk-through. We reply within one business day, and the estimate is free with no pressure to book.
Call or send a message
Call (405) 285-3167 or send us a message with your address and what you have in mind, whether that's a new patio, a sinking driveway or a slab for a shop. We get back to you within one business day to set a time for me to come out.
I look it over and write it up
I come out myself, look the site over, measure and listen to what you want. I check where water runs now and where it'll run after the pour. Then I send a written estimate that spells out what's included. It's free, and there's no pressure to book.
We prep and pour
Once you say go, we check with the city about permits and handle the paperwork when it falls to us, then set a date. Our crew digs out and packs the base, sets forms and steel, pours, finishes and cuts control joints, the grooves that give cracks a place to go.
We walk the finished job
When the work's done, I walk the finished job with you and go over how long to stay off it while it cures. We clean up and haul off the debris before we leave, so all you have left to do is wait to use it.

Concrete work and city rules in Edmond
Edmond is our home base, and the City of Edmond is who you deal with for building permits on jobs inside city limits. Its Building & Fire Code Services Department issues permits to build, alter, repair or tear down a structure, and its list names work like covered patios and room additions. Not every concrete job is spelled out there, so we check with the city before we start, and you can look over the city's permits and licenses page yourself.
Work that reaches into the public right-of-way, usually a driveway apron at the street or a public sidewalk, needs a separate Right-of-Way Permit, and closing a lane or sidewalk needs one of its own. Those go through the city's online portal. Around Edmond we pour plenty of driveways, patios and walks for families, plus slabs and lots for small businesses, and we do the same work in the cities nearby.

Questions about concrete in Edmond, OK
How much does a concrete driveway cost in Edmond?
It depends mostly on the size, whether old concrete has to come out and how much the ground needs before we pour. Thickness, steel and the finish you pick move it too. I'll measure on site and give you a free written estimate.
Does stamped or decorative concrete cost more than plain concrete?
Yes, usually, because stamping and color take more labor and more hands on pour day. A plain broom finish is the lower-cost option. Ask me to price both on the same estimate so you can see the difference for your job.
How long until I can drive on a new concrete driveway?
You can usually walk on it after a short wait, but driving on it takes longer, because concrete needs time to cure before it can carry a car's weight. The exact wait depends on the slab and the mix, so I'll tell you yours at the walk-through.
Does a concrete contractor need a license in Edmond?
The state doesn't currently license general contractors, but the City of Edmond requires a general building contractor's license to submit for a city building permit. Residential contractors also need current general liability and workers' comp coverage to submit. We're licensed and fully insured.
What prep work happens before a concrete slab is poured?
We dig out soft ground, pack a firm base, check where water will run and set forms so the slab falls away from the house. Steel goes in where the job calls for it. Skipping any of that is how slabs end up sinking or sending water toward the foundation.
Do you guarantee your concrete work?
Yes, our work is satisfaction guaranteed. If something about the finished job doesn't sit right with you, tell me, because I'd rather talk it through than have you wonder.
Will my new concrete crack like the old one did?
Any concrete can crack, but a well-built slab usually cracks less and in places you won't mind. We pack the base so it doesn't settle with the dirt, add rebar where the job needs it and cut control joints on time so a crack runs along a groove we chose.
How do I find out if my Edmond home is in a floodplain?
Search your address on the city's Floodplain & Watershed Map, which shows FEMA floodplains and the ones the city has adopted. If you have questions, the city's Floodplain Administrator takes calls at (405) 359-4772. If you're planning a new slab or addition, it's good to know before we talk.
