Concrete Slabs (Pouring & Finishing)

We install concrete slabs for new construction, additions, garages, sheds, and remodeling projects. Every slab is properly graded, compacted, reinforced, and poured to meet structural requirements and local codes.

Concrete Slabs (Pouring & Finishing) by J&V Construction in Knoxville, TN

How we do it

A slab is only as good as what sits under it. Before we pour, we grade and compact the base, set forms to the right elevation, and lay out reinforcement so the slab carries its load without settling or cracking early.

We pour slabs for new homes, room additions, garages, workshops, sheds and remodeling projects across Knoxville and the surrounding area, and finish them to suit the space — smooth trowel for interiors, broom finish where traction matters.

  • Compacted gravel base and vapor barrier where required

Common questions

How thick should my slab be?

Most residential slabs are 4 inches, while garages and slabs that carry heavier loads are usually thicker. We confirm the right thickness for your use and any plans or local requirements during the site visit.

Do you pour slabs for sheds and small buildings?

Yes. We pour slabs for sheds, workshops and detached garages as well as for new homes and additions.

How long before I can use a new slab?

Foot traffic is usually fine after a day or two. Heavier loads and vehicles need more curing time — we give you a clear timeline for your project when we pour.
