    Uresti Tax Office: Sidewalk Remove-and-Replace

    In April 2026 our crew prepped and poured new concrete at the Uresti tax office, a busy public building where people come and go all day.

    LocationSan Antonio, TX
    Pour dateApril 2026
    ScopeDemolition, forming, steel, pour-back

    Scope

    • Saw-cut and break out the failed sidewalk and entry concrete
    • Haul off debris and prep the subgrade
    • Set forms and reinforcing steel
    • Place, finish and cure new concrete

    Public buildings can’t shut down for construction. We sectioned the work so visitors always had a clear, safe way in, and we left the site clean at the end of every shift.

    Government and agency projects are one of our core practice areas. See our public and government capabilities or request a quote for your facility.

  • Driveway Demolition, Santa Clara Job

    Driveway Demolition, Santa Clara Job

    In January 2023 we demolished an existing concrete driveway on our Santa Clara job to make way for new concrete.

    DateJanuary 2023
    ScopeDriveway demolition

    Good demolition sets up a good pour. We saw-cut clean edges where the new work meets the old, break out and haul off all debris, and check the subgrade underneath. Many driveway failures start with base problems that stay hidden until the old slab comes out.

  • QuikTrip: Overnight Demo, Next-Morning Pour-Back

    QuikTrip: Overnight Demo, Next-Morning Pour-Back

    Convenience stores never close, so concrete work has to fit into a single night. In May 2022 we completed four QuikTrip remove-and-replace jobs on back-to-back nights, then returned in November for demolition at North 1604/37 and Foster/I-10.

    LocationsSan Antonio, incl. Marbach/1604, North 1604/37, Foster/I-10
    DatesMay & November 2022
    ScopeOvernight demolition, steel, pour-back

    How an overnight cycle works

    • 9 PM: barricade, saw-cut and break out the old concrete
    • Overnight: haul off spoils, prep base, tie steel
    • Morning: pour back and finish (the fourth job poured at 10 AM)
    • Protect and reopen as soon as the concrete allows

    Our first QT job was demolished the night of May 8 and poured May 9. The third, at Marbach and 1604, was demolished overnight on May 15. The fourth was demolished at 9 PM on May 16, with steel tied and pour-back at 10 AM on May 17.

    This kind of schedule takes our own equipment, an experienced crew and tight coordination with the ready-mix supplier. Talk to us about phasing your site.

    DatesJanuary 7–12, 2022
    Concrete3000 PSI, 5 in. thick

    • Set forms and tie 3/8-inch rebar at 12 inches each way

    Pool Deck Remove and Replace

    In October 2021 we tore out a worn pool deck and poured a new one.

    DateOctober 11, 2021
    Concrete3000 PSI, 4 in. thick
    Reinforcement6-gauge wire mesh

    • Remove existing deck without damaging the pool
    • Prep base and place 6-gauge wire mesh
    • Pour 3000 PSI concrete, 4 inches thick
    • Broom finish for wet-foot traction

    Pool decks get wet, sun-baked and hosed down all the time. Getting slopes away from the pool and a slip-resistant finish matters as much as strength. Request a quote.

  • Helotes: Fixing a Flooding Porch with Drainage and Wood-Grain Stamped Concrete

    Helotes: Fixing a Flooding Porch with Drainage and Wood-Grain Stamped Concrete

    A Helotes business called us about a flooding problem. Rainwater was pooling on their covered porch, and the wood decking was rotting from the moisture.

    LocationHelotes, TX
    DateJune 17, 2021
    Concrete removed4 × 25 ft
    Drain6 in. × 27 in. wide
    FinishWood-grain stamp, custom stain

    The fix

    • Remove the rotted wood decking
    • Demolish a 4 ft × 25 ft strip of concrete
    • Form and pour a 6-inch by 27-inch wide drainage channel
    • Pour new concrete with a wood-grain stamp

    We usually don’t stamp concrete in Texas summers because the heat makes it hard to finish the stamping in time. This porch was covered, so we could get the wood-grain texture right. We planned to come back after 30 days for custom staining and antiquing in 3 to 5 colors.

    Our wood decking was getting rotten from the bad drainage setup. 123 came in and removed the old wood, installed a drainage system and even stamped the concrete… No more mud on the porch to my office. — R. Ruiz, Helotes TX
