Concrete Construction Services
At SRP Projects, we understand that the foundation of any successful project starts with its ground interface. Concrete, being strong, durable, and wear-resistant, offers a solid base, but it also leaves no room for error. Whether it’s a residential driveway or a commercial foundation, getting it right the first time is crucial. This is why hiring experienced professionals like SRP Projects is a smart investment. Our team of experts brings extensive knowledge and specialized equipment to ensure every phase of your concrete project is executed to the highest standards.
Our Specialties
SRP Projects focuses on a variety of concrete construction services, ranging from sidewalks and driveways to flatwork, steps, and foundations. These projects demand precision, particularly in ensuring flatness, proper drainage, durable finishes, and long-lasting results. We cater to both residential and commercial clients, ensuring every job meets strict quality controls and industry standards.
Sub-Grade Preparation: The Foundation of Every Project
A strong and durable concrete surface begins with the proper preparation of the sub-grade. At SRP Projects, we give special attention to creating a well-drained, evenly graded, and thawed sub-surface. A poor base can lead to settling issues and unnecessary cracks down the road. Our team is equipped to handle challenging substrates, whether they are frozen or rocky, using specialized equipment such as:
- Vibratory plate compactors
- Vibratory drum rollers
- Hydraulic hoe-pacs attached to excavators
This ensures the sub-surface is stable and compact, reducing the risk of future damage.
Pour Readiness: Ensuring All Elements Are in Place
Before the concrete pour begins, SRP Projects ensures that all aspects of the project are ready for success. Our team handles:
- Cribbing to set the forms for concrete
- Installation of moisture migration barriers and insulation
- Accommodation of utilities, including hydronic heating, electrical conduits, and gas lines
- Proper placement of rebar according to building code or engineering specifications
This meticulous preparation ensures that the concrete pour meets durability and longevity standards.
The Pour: Precision in Ordering and Placing Concrete
Concrete pouring is a complex phase that requires careful coordination and expert planning. SRP Projects addresses key factors such as:
- Organizing skilled labor
- Navigating site access issues
- Ordering the right concrete mix for your specific project
- Ensuring timely delivery to maintain the integrity of the mix
We have the experience to coordinate concrete deliveries and monitor them in real time, thanks to our electronic tracking systems. This capability allows us to adjust plans on the fly and improve the precision of the pour.
Finishing and Curing: The Final Touch
After the concrete is poured, the finishing and curing processes begin. At SRP Projects, we offer a variety of decorative surface options to enhance the aesthetic appeal of your project. Whether you prefer a smooth, stamped, or textured finish, our team has the skills and equipment to meet your design preferences.
Curing is just as critical as finishing, as it ensures the concrete reaches its optimal strength and durability. We follow industry best practices to guarantee your concrete project stands the test of time.
Cold Weather Concrete Work: Defying the Elements
In Calgary and much of Western Canada, halting construction during the colder months is simply not an option. Concrete work in winter presents unique challenges, such as frost heave, improper curing, and surface chalking. SRP Projects has the necessary equipment and expertise to manage these conditions, ensuring your concrete project remains on track, even in freezing temperatures.
We utilize two primary heating methods during cold weather work:
Hydronic Heat
Hydronic heat is SRP Projects’ preferred method for thawing and preheating the ground, as it is the most energy-efficient option. Hydronic systems can thaw up to one foot of depth per day, ensuring the ground beneath the concrete is properly prepared. During the curing phase, the same hydronic system can be used to accelerate the process, either by laying the pipes directly on the concrete surface or using sacrificial 1/2 inch Pex piping beneath it.
Indirect Air Heat
For projects within semi-enclosed structures, indirect air heating units can be the better choice. These units are easier to set up and can maintain a comfortable work environment for additional tasks. Our systems are designed for extended use and can be monitored remotely via SRP Projects’ proprietary mobile monitoring technology, ensuring uninterrupted operation even when heaters are left unattended.
