Customization

Basic gray concrete slabs remain the norm in construction, but flatwork offers some level customization. OKCrete offers additional customization options such as incorporating pigment, stamping and customizations, patterns, and brushing surfaces. These choices present a unique chance to transform plain concrete into a branding tool or add an artistic flair to spaces.

Cost-effectiveness

Flatwork is the most economical while providing high strength and resistance than other flooring materials like brick, stone, and woodwork. The initial installation costs are lower than those materials and require very little maintenance over time. This makes concrete flatwork an excellent long-term investment that will continue to look beautiful for years. With flatwork, you can enjoy its beauty without having to worry about keeping up with treatments or repairs.

Versatility

Flatwork is also ideal for residential spaces due to its versatility. It can be used outdoors in areas such as terraces or patios where its beauty stands out against nature’s background. Concrete flatwork can include floors, patios, sidewalks, garages, basements, walkways, driveways, steps, and patios.

Low maintenance

Maintaining concrete flatwork demands minimal effort, particularly when installed and cared for correctly. After complete curing, a sealant serves as a shield, protecting the surface by filling microscopic pores that commonly absorb water and chemicals, thus preventing unsightly stains. Even industrial spills and stains don’t have to mean the end for flatwork.

Standards on Every Pour

We are extremely pleased with OKCrete’s work widening our driveway and extending the back patio!
“Fischer, Dexter and their team were extraordinarily polite, professional and punctual. They went out of their way to make these additions happen within our budget and timeframe. We will absolutely be using them again for other outside additions (pergola, etc.) and highly recommend their team for any concrete needs!”
Emily Lovell
OkCrete did a great job on our concrete project.
“Juan and Zack were very professional and attentive during the entire process. They followed up consistently to ensure we were satisfied with the progress and final results. I’d recommend them for all your concrete needs.”
Andrew Oyler
Okcrete was the best decision I made for my new double driveway.
“From beginning to end, they were professional, artistic, understanding and affordable. Kevin, Nick and their crew went above and beyond to give me the driveway of my dreams, digging out and hauling away an old tree stump, creating beautiful curves, new stairs and a show stopping diamond cut. I would definitely use them again and encourage anyone interested in a new driveway to call them immediately.”
Leslie Morgan
There is a reason why they are the best and why I went with them and for the future!
“When mistakes are made they make sure things are done right. The first pour did not go as planned and basically had to rip it out and replace. Some companies would say that's good enough but not them. They jumped right on it very quickly and replaced it! Wow! Me and my wife are very pleased with the result. I will recommend them to anyone that ask who did my concrete work for my patio expansion.”
Ken Anderson
OKCrete did an amazing job helping us with our addition.
“They are very knowledgeable about their product. They communicated well and showed up on time as planned. Very friendly and professional to work with and most importantly they poured high quality concrete. They have very high integrity as they cleaned up, professional and affordable service.”
Lisa Andrews
The Perfect Combination of Extensive Industry Experience and Accessibility
“The crew was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable regarding all aspects of the build-out. I would not hesitate in any way to recommend them and envision working with them again in the future as my business continues to expand. I believe they have the perfect combination of extensive industry experience and the accessibility of a local business.”

The Flatwork Process

Soil Excavation & Site Preparation

Effective site preparation helps prevent settling, cracking, and chipping. The ground is cleared, leveled, excavated, and compacted to create a stable base for the concrete slab.

Form Installation

Wood or plastic forms are installed to define the slab's shape and boundaries. These forms help keep the concrete in place and ensure clean, straight edges.

Reinforcements

Rebar or welded wire mesh may be added to reinforce the concrete and improve its tensile strength. Proper placement helps support the slab's structural integrity.

Concrete Pouring

Concrete is poured into the forms and spread evenly across the prepared area. The surface is then screeded and troweled to create a smooth, level finish.

Curing

The concrete needs time to cure and develop strength, with curing conditions affecting the final result. Once sufficiently cured, an appropriate sealant may be applied to help protect the surface from moisture and stains.

How Long Does Flatwork Take?

The duration of the entire flatwork process varies based on its intended purpose, spanning from 24 hours to two weeks. Freshly poured sidewalks and driveways typically dry within 24-48 hours, becoming suitable for foot traffic. However, it takes an additional 5-6 days for the concrete to reach 70% of its strength.


For more exterior projects covering around 10,000 square feet, such as parking lots or sidewalks, completion usually occurs within a week. For instance, scheduling a sidewalk replacement on a Friday afternoon would allow safe customer access by Monday during regular business hours.
