Every job starts as a frame.
General contractor. Central Texas.
Concrete, steel, and the cover that goes over it.
Voted by readers in the Concrete Contractors and Decks category.
What we build
Dirt, concrete, steel, roof, finish. Every job on this page runs through the same five stages. These are the eight places we come in.
Stage two
Formed, tied and poured on site. House pads, shop slabs, driveways and approaches, sidewalks and patios. Old concrete broken out and hauled off before the new pour goes down. This is the category the 2024 reader’s poll was won in.
Stage three
Red iron and steel frame structures set on a slab. Shops, barns, equipment cover, and additions tied into an existing house.
Stage four
Attached to the house or freestanding, on cedar posts or steel. The roof line gets matched to the house so it reads as part of the original build.
Stage four
Metal or wood post carports over new or existing concrete. Single, double and RV height, freestanding in the yard or tied into the roof line.
All five stages
Stone columns, a built stone fireplace and colored or stamped concrete under a metal roof. The job in the video at the top of this page is one of these.
Stage five
Cedar privacy fence hung on a steel frame instead of wood posts, so the line stays straight and the gates keep swinging true.
Stage one
Cut, fill and grade before anything gets poured. Building pads, driveway approaches, culverts, and drainage that runs away from the house.
Commercial
Commercial slabs, block buildings and covered structures. The ballfield concession building and dugout cover on this page are both ours.
The work
Anybody can show you a finished photo. Here is the frame stage too. Drag the handle to put the frame back.

How it goes up
A carport going up on an existing slab: posts, frame, roof, then sheeting. This one is an animation showing the order the work happens, not a photo of a job. Every other picture on this page is real work.
How a job runs
We come out, measure, look at the grade and the drainage, and tell you what the job takes.
Scope, materials and price on paper before anybody digs, so there is nothing to argue about later.
The stages run in order, and you know which one the job is on.
You look at it with us and we fix anything you point out before we call the job done.
Ask us when we walk the site. The honest answer depends on the slab, the span and the weather, and we would rather give you a real date than a hopeful one.
