Concrete Contractors in Oakland, TN

Oakland homeowners searching for concrete contractors are mostly living in houses that did not exist a generation ago. The town had 1,279 residents in 2000, 6,623 in 2010 and 8,936 at the 2020 census, with a 2025 estimate of 10,835. Its town limits grew from 3.6 square miles in 2000 to about 10.3 square miles by 2010 and now reach about 6.5 miles west, almost to the Shelby County line. Wikipedia notes that Oakland issued the most building permits of any Memphis-area suburb in 2007.

What fast building leaves behind

When hundreds of homes go up in a few years, flatwork is sometimes rushed. We see driveways in Oakland that were poured on thin base, joints that were cut late and wandered into cracks, and patios that were the smallest the builder offered. None of that is unusual, and most of it is fixable. Settled panels can be replaced, small patios can be extended or rebuilt, and a cracked garage apron can be cut out and repoured without touching the rest of the driveway.

Fayette County ground

Oakland sits in west-central Fayette County at about 381 feet of elevation, on mostly land, with only 0.035 square miles of water inside town limits. That higher, open ground drains reasonably well, but new subdivisions are often graded flat, and flat yards can hold water against a slab. We set a clear slope on every pour and pay attention to where downspouts and neighboring lots send their water.

Growth along US 64

The widening of US Highway 64 to four lanes in the early 1990s is what opened Oakland to commuters, according to Wikipedia. It sits about 9 miles from Somerville, the county seat, and about 32 miles from downtown Memphis. Many families moved here for bigger lots at lower prices, and that space is usually where our work goes: larger patios, side parking pads, walkways to a shed, and slabs for storage buildings.

Typical Oakland projects

Patio additions and replacements, stamped patios, driveway extensions, garage aprons, front walks and steps, and slabs for sheds or detached garages. Fair Oaks Golf Course has been open since 2000, and homes near it often want outdoor space that suits the setting.

Our process in Oakland

Every job starts with a visit to measure and look at the ground. We note where water collects, check for soft spots, and ask what the slab needs to carry. Then you get a written estimate that covers removal, base, thickness, reinforcement, finish and cleanup, and the written estimate is the price. On pour day we place and finish the concrete, cut control joints on time and leave the slab curing properly. We will tell you how long to stay off it and how to care for it over the first year.
