New Concrete Garage Floor in Highland Park, IL
Concrete must be kept moist during curing to achieve optimal strength and durability. During the curing period, concrete is ideally maintained at controlled temperature and humidity. A wide variety of equipment is used for processing concrete, heavy industrial machinery to hand tools. With concrete, we want to produce the desired building material so ingredients must be properly mixed, placed, shaped, and retained within time constraints. Once the mix is where it should be, the curing process must be controlled to ensure that the concrete attains the desired attributes. General Masonry Construction can lay your new concrete garage floor at your Highland Park, IL home or business with precision and care.
Driveway Aprons in Highland Park, IL
Let General Masonry Construction worry about the necessary building codes when replacing or repairing your driveway apron. If your project is new construction in Highland Park, IL, we have many years’ experience in handling buried municipal water lines and storm drains. The apron is the closest part of the driveway that usually meets sidewalks, if any, and the road. In many communities, the area on the street side of a sidewalk is considered an easement that the city controls. If no sidewalks are present, the length of the apron will vary from community to community, based on local construction codes. General Masonry Construction can plan the entire project and expertly and precisely lay the concrete to code.
