Concrete Work in Hermitage

Hermitage homeowners looking for concrete contractors live in a once-rural part of Davidson County that is now a busy district of shops and suburban housing. The neighborhood takes its name from The Hermitage, the home of Andrew Jackson, the seventh U.S. president. A 2016 estimate put the population at 37,814. We pour driveways, patios, walks, steps and slabs, and we repair concrete that has cracked, heaved or sunk.

Between the river and the lake

The Stones River and its bottom lands, known as Clover Bottom, divide Hermitage from Donelson to the west. The J. Percy Priest Dam, built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, holds back the Stones River to form Percy Priest Lake, which the Hermitage Wikipedia page credits with raising area property values.

Those waters shape a lot of the ground. Homes near the bottom lands sit on lower, wetter soil, while streets toward the lake climb over rolling hills. Low ground needs a solid stone base so the slab does not sit in mud. Rolling lots need careful grading so runoff does not run across a patio or into a garage.

Common Hermitage projects

Housing here spans several decades of suburban building. We see:

Original driveways with wide cracks, sunken sections and broken aprons
Patios that have tipped toward the house or broken where tree roots grew under them
Front steps and stoops that have separated from the house
Carports and garage floors with deep cracks or pitting
Lake-area homes wanting larger patios, pool decks and boat or trailer pads

Storm damage

The March 3, 2020, tornado that crossed Nashville damaged neighborhoods including Donelson and Hermitage. Concrete often takes a hit during storm cleanup, from fallen trees, roll-off dumpsters and heavy equipment. If cracked sections are left in place, water gets under them and the damage spreads. We remove the broken pieces, repair the base and pour new sections to match.

A practical approach

On a typical Hermitage job, we: 1. Look at the slab, the soil and where water flows on the property. 2. Tell you whether repair, partial replacement or full replacement makes sense. 3. Call Tennessee 811 and confirm any Metro requirements for work at the street. 4. Tear out, rebuild the base and form the new slab. 5. Pour, finish, cut joints and cure the concrete properly.

Traffic from I-40 and U.S. 70 makes Hermitage easy to reach from our Brentwood base, and estimates are free.

Hermitage Questions

Do you pour pool decks in Hermitage?

Yes. We pour pool decks with a slip-resistant broom or stamped finish, sloped away from the pool and the house so water drains off quickly.

Tree roots lifted my walk. Can you fix it without cutting the tree?

Often yes. We can reroute the walk, bridge over smaller roots with a thicker slab, or remove only the lifted section. For large roots, we recommend talking with an arborist before any cutting.

How do I know if I need a whole new driveway?

If most sections are cracked through, sunken or flaking, replacement is usually the better value. If only a few sections are bad, we can replace just those.

Can you pour a boat or trailer pad near Percy Priest Lake?

Yes. Many Hermitage households near the lake keep a boat or camper at home. We pour side pads thicker than a standard drive, with reinforcement and a compacted stone base, and shape the transition from the driveway so you can back a trailer on smoothly.

My Hermitage garage floor has pits and flakes. Can it be fixed?

Surface pitting and flaking are often caused by freeze-thaw damage or road salt dripping off cars. If the slab is still solid and level, cleaning and sealing can slow it down. If the damage is deep or the floor has cracked and settled, replacement is the lasting fix.
