What To Know Before You Begin Your Project
Arkansas is known for it's harsh and disruptive soil, leading to sudden cracks, heaves, cave-ins or failures of your concrete or retaining walls. As a result, the construction needs to ensure proper engineering, sub-base and drainage requirements that not every contractor can provide. Be sure to ask about warranties, licensure and a contractors past experience working with our unique Harrison and Arkansas soil conditions before signing!
How Long Do Retaining Walls Last?
Traditional wood or beam retaining walls rot away due to our heavy rainfall and poor drainage, so they can only last up to 30 years at most.
Stone or concrete retaining walls, if installed correctly, can last you for 75-100 years or longer!
Why Is My Concrete Cracking?
Sadly, our Arkansas soil see's a constant shrink and swell cycle due to the heavy amounts of clay beneath our feet. This clay can withhold large quantities of moisture which can then cause your concrete to crack, heave, or fail within years. If you notice a crack - don't wait and call us today!
Does Working Near a Creek or Waterway Require Extra Permits?
Yes, Arkansas law specifically requires that any construction occuring near waterways must obtain an applicable water quality permit.
So if your property line touches Crooked Creek, a tributary or any other named waterway you'll likely need a permit before work begins.
My Property Has A Lot Of Rock, What Does That Mean For Excavation?
Your excavation cost may be a little higher than you expect. Since Harrison and the surrounding Boone county lies on karst limestone, the same stone that forms all of our cave systems, springs and rocky hillsides, you'll need a contractor who can handle it.
When Is Best To Begin Concrete Work In Harrison?
Concrete can be poured anytime there is a low chance of rain or freezing. Our team and crews are efficient at what they do and pay careful attention the the weather to ensure your project is on track.
Do I Have To Go With You Once I Get An Estimate?
Not at all. We've offered our insights and pricing information to numerous customers who never signed with us. However, do your research when selecting a contractor as many of our free estimate customers called us when their last contractor no-showed.
