Advanced Concrete & Excavation handles both halves of a concrete job — the excavation and site preparation underneath, and the concrete work on top. One crew, one schedule, and a slab that sits on a base built right.
Because excavation is in our name, we do the earthwork and the concrete — so nothing gets lost between two contractors.
Good concrete starts before the truck arrives. We handle excavation, rough grading, and subgrade preparation so the base under your concrete is compacted, level, and ready to carry the load for decades.
Everything above ground depends on what's below it. We form and pour footings, foundation walls, and slab work for additions and garages, sized to the load and the local soil conditions.
A driveway takes a beating from cars, weather, and time. We pour driveways on a properly prepared stone base with the right thickness and reinforcement, finished broom- or swirl-textured for traction in wet weather.
Turn a patchy backyard into the spot everyone gathers. Patios are formed and finished for the way you live outside — grilling, seating, and foot traffic — with finishes from classic broom to decorative options.
Front walks and steps are the first thing visitors see — and the thing they step on every day. We pour walkways and steps that are level, safe, and built to handle freeze-thaw winters without heaving.
Not every tired slab needs to be torn out. When the structure is sound, resurfacing and crack repair can restore the surface at a fraction of replacement cost — and we'll tell you honestly which one you need.
A concrete job done right follows a process. Here is how every Advanced Concrete & Excavation project moves from estimate to finished slab.
We look at the site, take measurements, talk through what you want, and put a clear written scope and price in front of you.
The old material comes out (if it's a replacement), the base gets graded and compacted, forms go up true and level, and reinforcement goes in.
Concrete goes down on schedule, is leveled and finished to your chosen texture — broom, swirl, or stamped — with control joints cut in.
We walk you through cure times, when to seal, and simple care so your concrete reaches its full strength and stays looking good.
The most common reason concrete fails is the ground under it. We control that ground — and then we pour on it.
No handoffs between an excavator and a separate concrete crew. We schedule it, grade it, form it, and pour it.
Compaction, stone base, and grading are not an afterthought for us — they are half of what we do.
Footings and foundation walls formed true and poured solid, with drainage details that protect the structure.
One call covers the whole project from first shovel to final finish.
Call or message us and we'll set up a walkthrough. We measure the area, talk through what you want, and give you a clear written scope and price — no pressure, no obligation.
A properly prepared and poured driveway typically lasts 25 to 30 years or more. The biggest factors are the stone base underneath, the thickness of the slab, control joints, and sealing — shortcuts on any of those shorten the life.
Concrete can develop hairline cracks as it cures and the ground moves. Control joints are cut in on purpose to guide where that happens so it stays hidden and harmless. Proper base prep and thickness keep structural cracking away.
It can be done with the right precautions, but moderate temperatures give the best cure. We'll schedule your pour for conditions that let the concrete gain strength properly and protect fresh work when it turns cold.
Foot traffic is usually fine after a day or two, and cars after about five to seven days, depending on weather and the mix used. We'll give you a specific timeline for your pour before we leave the job.
The reviews below are sample placeholders showing how customer testimonials would appear on the live site.
“They dug out for our garage slab and poured it too. Having one crew handle both made the whole thing simple, and the slab is perfect.”
“Our driveway was a mess of mud and broken concrete. They excavated, built up the base, and the new driveway is rock solid.”
“Professional from the estimate to the final walk-through. The grading work alone was worth it — water finally drains away from the house.”
Based on Florian Drive in Cheswick, serving the Allegheny Valley and surrounding Pittsburgh communities.
