Frequently Asked Questions
I’ve been in the concrete business for over 13 years now. Started working summers with my dad’s company when I was just 16, then went full-time after getting my construction management degree. Been running AD Concrete Contractors here in Texas for the last 7 years
At AD Concrete Contractors, we’ve done it all! From residential driveways and patios to commercial foundations and industrial floors. Our sweet spot is decorative concrete work – stamped patterns, acid staining, and exposed aggregate finishes. In Canada with my brother, we do more heavy-duty structural work due to the climate challenges.
It’s been a mix of formal education and good old-fashioned experience. I studied construction management in college, but the real education came from working alongside veteran concrete finishers. I’m also certified through the American Concrete Institute and regularly attend industry workshops to keep my skills sharp.
That would be a 45,000 square foot warehouse floor we poured in Austin with the AD Concrete team. We had a crew of 15 working around the clock to get it done before a major temperature change was forecasted. We finished with just hours to spare! The industrial polishing work afterward took another two weeks
Great question! In Texas, we’re fighting heat and rapid evaporation – concrete can set too quickly if you’re not careful. In Canada, it’s the opposite problem. The cold means slower setting times and the risk of freezing before proper curing. Plus, the freeze-thaw cycles in Canada
