About our concrete contractor team in Columbia
We pour driveways, patios, steps, footings and slabs across Columbia and Maury County. Every job starts with the grade, the forms and the base, because that's what decides how the slab holds up.
A framer who switched to concrete
I framed houses for years, and too many of them sat on slabs that weren't square. You can't frame your way out of that, so I switched to concrete to fix it where it starts. I learned the trade on a flatwork crew, pouring driveways, patios and walks, and started Cornerstone Columbia Concrete in 2021.
We're based in Columbia and work across Maury County and the cities around it, including Spring Hill, Franklin, Thompson's Station, Lewisburg and Pulaski. Homeowners call us for driveways, patios and steps, and builders call us for footings and slabs.
We're best known for the part nobody sees. The grading, the forms and the subgrade, the packed dirt the slab sits on, all get done right before we pour, because concrete is hard to argue with once it sets. I'd rather spend an extra hour on grade than leave you a problem that was cheap to avoid.
What we pour and fix
Get a quoteConcrete driveway building
A new driveway, or a tear-out of a cracked, sinking one. We dig out and pack the base, because raked dirt settles and takes the slab with it.
Concrete patio construction
When your back door opens onto mud or a patio that tips toward the house, we pour a new slab sloped so rain runs away from the foundation.
Stamped concrete services
Concrete colored and pressed with a pattern while it's wet, so it reads as stone, brick or slate. Good for patios and walks where plain gray won't do.
Concrete sidewalk building
New or replacement walks from the driveway to the door, with a broom finish, a brushed texture that gives shoes grip when it's wet.
Garage floor concrete
A new garage slab, or a replacement for one that's cracked, chipping or holding water. Rebar, the steel inside, helps keep cracks from pulling apart.
Decorative concrete
Colored, stained or exposed-stone finishes for slabs that people will look at as much as walk on, usually patios, entries and pool areas.
Concrete retaining walls
Poured walls that hold back a slope in the yard. You need one when the hill is creeping onto the driveway or washing out the patio edge.
Concrete floor installation
Interior concrete floors for basements, shops and additions, poured level and finished smooth or left ready for whatever flooring goes on top.
Concrete pool decks
The slab around your pool, sloped so splash water drains off and finished with enough texture that wet feet have some grip.
Concrete steps construction
Front and back steps, built new or replaced when the old ones crack, settle or pull away from the house. We form every step the same height.
Slab foundation building
The slab a house, garage or addition sits on. We check that it's square and level before the pour, because a slab that's off follows the house up.
Foundation installation
Foundation walls for new homes and additions, laid out from the plans, since a mistake down here shows up in every wall above it.
Concrete parking lot building
Concrete lots and wide drive areas for churches, shops and small businesses, graded so rainwater heads for the drains instead of sitting in puddles.
Concrete footings
The buried concrete under a wall, porch, deck or addition. Builders call us for these, and we dig them to the depth and width the plans call for.
Foundation raising
If a slab or foundation has sunk and doors stick or floors slope, we look at why it settled before lifting it back toward level.
Concrete cutting
Sawing openings, trenches or straight lines in existing concrete, plus control joints, the shallow cuts that give a new slab a planned place to crack.
