How Edinburg's Rapid Growth Affects Concrete Quality

Edinburg has been one of the fastest-developing cities in the Rio Grande Valley over the past decade. New neighborhoods are going up near UTRGV, along Closner Boulevard, and throughout the newer master-planned communities to the north and east of the city center. With that level of growth comes a lot of residential concrete work, and unfortunately, not all of it is done to the same standard. We work in Edinburg regularly and see firsthand how some builders rush the flatwork to hit a schedule. Driveways poured without a proper compacted base, slabs without enough reinforcement, and patios without adequate control joints all tend to show problems within a few years. Properties in Edinburg often deal with the same expansive clay soil found throughout Hidalgo County, which means your concrete base prep is just as important as the pour itself. We do not skip that step. If you are building new or replacing old concrete, ask us about our process and how it differs from what you may have seen before. A well-built concrete driveway in Edinburg should last 25 years or more with proper prep.
