Overview

Concrete Slabs in Asheville & Western North Carolina

A concrete slab is only as good as what is underneath it. Appalachian Excavation & Concrete pours residential and commercial slabs across Asheville with excavation, compaction and drainage handled by our own crew, which is exactly why our slabs do not sink at the corners two winters later.

We build slabs for patios, sheds, hot tubs, garages, equipment pads, parking areas and warehouse floors. Thickness, reinforcement and joint layout are matched to the load the slab will actually carry — a hot tub pad and a skid-steer pad are not the same pour, and we do not treat them the same.

Every project follows the same disciplined sequence: excavate and remove unsuitable soil, install and compact stone base, set forms to correct slope, place rebar or mesh where needed, pour, screed, finish and cut control joints before curing. Getting joints right is one of the cheapest ways to control where concrete cracks.

If you have an existing slab that is cracking, sinking or pooling water, we evaluate the cause before quoting a fix. Sometimes the answer is a repair and better drainage; sometimes the honest answer is that the base failed and a replacement will cost you less over time. We will tell you which.

Concrete Slabs FAQs

How thick should a concrete slab be for a garage or equipment pad?

Patio and shed slabs are typically four inches, while garage, vehicle and equipment pads usually call for five to six inches with reinforcement. We size the slab to the load after reviewing your plans.

How do I know if my concrete slab needs repair?

Common signs include cracking, uneven sections, sinking, surface wear and water pooling. Early repairs help prevent larger structural problems and higher replacement costs.

Do you offer free estimates for concrete slab installation?

Yes. We provide free on-site evaluations and detailed estimates so you can plan your project with confidence before moving forward.
