Foundations & Slabs in
Wind Lake, WI
The concrete everything else sits on has to be right the first time. We pour footings, foundations, and structural slabs to spec so what you build on top of them stays put.
Overview
A foundation or structural slab is not the place to cut corners. Everything you build sits on it, and if it is off, everything above it is off too. We pour footings, foundations, and slabs to the spec the job calls for, with the depth, reinforcement, and drainage to carry the load and ride out frost. Whether it is a garage, an addition, or an outbuilding, we give you a base you can build on with confidence.

Foundations & slabs FAQ
Common questions on structural work.
How deep do footings need to be in Wisconsin?
Below the frost line, which in southeast Wisconsin runs down around four feet. Footings that stop short of frost depth will heave in winter. We dig to the depth the local code and the job require.
Do you work from engineered plans?
Yes. If you have engineered or permitted plans, we pour to that spec. If you need something simpler like a shed or pad footing, we size it to the load and the site.
What is a monolithic slab?
It is a slab and its footing poured as one piece, common for garages and outbuildings. It is fast and solid when the site allows for it, and we will tell you whether it is the right call for your build.
Can you pour a foundation for a pole barn or outbuilding?
Yes. We pour footings, piers, and slabs for pole barns, sheds, and outbuildings, sized and reinforced for what the structure needs.
How long before I can build on it?
Concrete gains most of its strength over the first week and keeps curing after that. We will tell you when the foundation is ready for the next stage based on the pour and the load.
