Concrete Contractors in Hendersonville, TN

Hendersonville homeowners looking for concrete contractors live in a city shaped by water. The Old Hickory Dam and its lake were completed in 1954, and the city grew faster after that, reaching 61,753 people at the 2020 census, up from 32,188 in 1990. About 6.5 square miles of the city's 38 square miles are water. We pour driveways, patios, pool decks, walks, steps and slabs, and we repair or replace concrete that has cracked or settled.

Lakefront lots

Homes near the water often sit on lots that slope toward the lake. That brings its own set of concrete jobs:

• Patios and terraces stepping down the hill toward the shore
• Steps and walks connecting the house, the yard and the dock path
• Driveways on a grade, sometimes with a tight turn at the top
• Pool decks that need to drain away from both the pool and the house

Sloped yards move water fast. When we plan a patio or walk on a lake lot, we look at the full path of runoff from the roof to the shoreline. A slab that blocks that path will collect water on the uphill side. One that sheds it in the wrong place can wash out the soil at its edge.

Away from the lake

Most of Hendersonville's housing is inland, in subdivisions built as the population grew. The city had 16,507 housing units in 2000 and 24,963 in 2020. Homes from the 1970s through the 1990s often have their original driveways and patios, which are now at or past the point of replacement. Newer homes usually need upgrades: wider drives, bigger patios and walks to the back yard.

History close at hand

Rock Castle, the stone house Daniel Smith began after his 1784 land grant and finished in 1796, still stands as a historic site in Hendersonville. Johnny Cash is among the city's notable residents. Older properties around town sometimes have stone walls, old trees and walks laid in another era. When we add or replace concrete next to features like that, we keep the new work clean and simple so it fits in.

Building for wet winters

Hendersonville sits low for the area, at about 482 feet, and like the rest of Middle Tennessee it gets plenty of rain and winters that swing around freezing. Concrete that soaks up water and then freezes can flake at the surface. We use air-entrained mixes for exterior work, finish without overworking the surface, and give you simple care tips for the first winter, such as avoiding rock salt.
