Four Decades of Concrete in the Southern Tier

Binghamton Concrete Co. started in 1982 with two people, a mixer and a short list of customers on the West Side. Four decades later we run multiple crews and our own excavation equipment, but the measure has not changed: is it flat, does it drain, and is it still tight in ten winters.

We do the whole job ourselves — excavation, base, forms, reinforcement, pour and finish. Nothing is handed to a sub you have never met. The person who quotes your job is on site the day it is poured, which means there is one number to call and nobody to point at when something needs sorting.

Most concrete failures around here are decided before the truck shows up. Not enough stone base, base that was never properly compacted, joints cut too far apart or too late, a slab pitched toward the house instead of away from it. None of it is visible once the concrete is finished, which is exactly why it is the easiest place for a cheap bid to save money.

So we will tell you what is in our price and what is probably missing from a lower one. Sometimes that conversation ends with us telling you the concrete you have is fine and you do not need us yet. We would rather do that than sell you a slab you did not need.
