Slab Foundation Construction & Repair
Serving McKinney & Surrounding Areas
Why Slab Foundations Deliver Lasting Value
Strong, Cost-Effective, And Low-Maintenance Base
A concrete slab foundation offers a solid, single-layer platform that distributes loads evenly and resists settlement when properly engineered. Compared with crawl spaces and basements in many regions, slabs often reduce construction complexity, speed timelines, and lower lifetime maintenance by eliminating wood framing near soil and minimizing moisture pathways.
Modern slab designs incorporate soil testing, subgrade preparation, and reinforcement strategies that address expansive soils and variable site conditions. When executed correctly, a slab provides excellent structural support for homes, garages, shops, and light commercial buildings while improving energy performance and indoor comfort.
From Site Prep To Precision Pour
We begin with site evaluation, elevation benchmarks, and soil analysis to inform the slab’s thickness, edge beams, and reinforcement. The crew establishes forms, compacts the subgrade, and, where specified, installs a capillary break and vapor barrier to control ground moisture migration.
Plumbing and electrical rough-ins are placed and pressure-tested before the pour. We then install rebar or post-tension cables per the engineer’s plan, place high-quality concrete with the proper slump, consolidate and screed, and finish to the required flatness. Control joints and curing practices are applied to manage shrinkage and enhance long-term durability.
Built To Perform In Real-World Conditions
Every slab is designed to a structural specification that matches load paths, soil reactivity, and intended use. Options include monolithic slabs with thickened edges, turned-down footings, and isolated pads for point loads such as columns or heavy equipment. Edge depth, beam spacing, and slab thickness are set to stabilize the structure and resist differential movement.
We use concrete mixes tailored to the project, typically 3,500–4,500 PSI with admixtures for workability, durability, and moisture control. Reinforcement may be #3–#5 rebar grids, welded wire mesh, or post-tension systems. Fiber-reinforced concrete can add crack control, and vapor barriers help manage moisture under flooring.
Drainage and grading are equally important. Positive slope away from the foundation, gutters with adequate downspouts, and optional perimeter drains mitigate hydrostatic pressure and soil heave. Proper curing, saw-cut or tooled joints, and termite pretreatment where required round out a durable, code-compliant slab.
