Concrete Contractor in Northport, AL
Northport homeowners know that good concrete work makes a difference. We handle the specific challenges of properties here, from the rolling terrain near Lake Lurleen to the established neighborhoods along Main Avenue. Your driveway, patio, or foundation work gets the attention it deserves.
Our Services
We provide complete concrete services for Northport properties. From driveways and patios to commercial flatwork, we bring the experience to do it right.
Working with Northport's Terrain
Northport has more elevation changes than Tuscaloosa across the river. Many properties sit on slopes or have yards that drop toward creeks and drainage areas. This terrain affects how we approach your concrete driveway or patio installation. A driveway on a slope needs careful grading to prevent water from pooling at the bottom or washing out the base over time.
Properties near Lake Lurleen State Park deal with sandy soil in some areas, while neighborhoods closer to Highway 82 have more clay. We test the soil conditions before starting work to determine the right base depth and compaction. Retaining walls often make sense for Northport properties where you want to level out a yard or create a usable patio area on a hillside.
Residential and Lake Property Work
Many Northport residents have weekend or retirement homes near Lake Lurleen. These properties often need driveways that can handle infrequent use without deteriorating, plus patios for outdoor entertaining. The lake area gets plenty of shade from mature trees, which keeps concrete cooler during summer pours but also means dealing with roots and organic debris in the soil.
The established neighborhoods along Main Avenue and around Northridge High School have homes built in the 70s and 80s. Many of these properties are ready for driveway replacements or patio additions. We work in these neighborhoods regularly and know how to coordinate with neighbors and handle the logistics of working on streets with mature landscaping.

Northport's Growing Commercial Areas
The McFarland Boulevard corridor through Northport continues to add retail and restaurant space. Commercial concrete work here needs to meet higher traffic demands than residential projects. Parking lots, loading zones, and sidewalks take constant wear from vehicles and foot traffic.
We handle commercial concrete projects for Northport businesses that need durable surfaces without extended downtime. The Harper Road area and the developments near Walmart and Home Depot require concrete that can handle heavy loads and frequent use. We coordinate with business owners to schedule work during slow periods and complete projects efficiently.
Our Process
Here is what you can expect when you hire us for your Northport concrete project.
We visit your Northport property to evaluate the site and discuss your project. We measure the work area, check soil conditions and drainage patterns, and identify any challenges like slopes or access limitations. You explain what you want to accomplish, and we provide recommendations based on your property's specific conditions. We prepare a detailed written estimate that covers all costs and explains your options. Once you approve, we schedule the work.
Differences from Tuscaloosa Work
While Northport and Tuscaloosa are neighbors, the concrete work has some differences. Northport properties tend to have more elevation changes, which means we focus more on proper drainage and retaining walls. The soil varies more here too, from sandy areas near the lake to heavy clay in other neighborhoods.
Northport also has a higher percentage of lakefront and rural properties compared to Tuscaloosa. These jobs often require us to bring equipment down longer driveways or work around more trees and natural features. Access can be tighter, especially in the older neighborhoods where streets are narrower. We plan each job based on the specific property, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
