Concrete contractor in Buchanan, GA

Buchanan, the Haralson County seat once called Pierceville

Buchanan is the seat of Haralson County. The town, originally called Pierceville, was renamed for U.S. president James Buchanan in 1857, and the Old Haralson County Courthouse, built in the Queen Anne style, still stands as one of the town's landmarks.

Being the county seat doesn't change what a slab or a foundation needs, whether it's going in downtown or on a lot at the edge of town.

Getting to a job near Buchanan: Highway 27 and Highway 120

Buchanan sits right where U.S. Highway 27 crosses Georgia Highway 120, the two main roads into town. From Cedartown, it's about a 27-minute drive, roughly 18 miles.

Anchor bolt layout on a metal building pad, checked before the forms go up

Metal building foundations are part of what we pour near Buchanan, pads squared and sized to a carport or steel building's plans before it ever arrives on site. The same side of the work covers concrete driveways and the footings a barn or an addition sits on.

Anchor bolt placement on a metal building pad has to match the manufacturer's drawings exactly. That gets checked before the forms go up, not after the pour.

Settling slab or footings early with your builder

The rest of the foundation work here is home foundations for a new house and garage and shop foundations for a detached building.

Which type a given building needs, slab-on-grade or a footing-and-crawlspace foundation, comes down to the plans and the lot, and that gets sorted out early with whoever's building it, well before the forms go up.

A patio or walkway on its own, no bigger project needed

A concrete patio, left plain or finished as stamped concrete, is yard work we pour here too, and slabs and flatwork cover whatever's smaller: a walkway, steps, a pad for equipment.

Who issues permits in Buchanan and the rest of Haralson County

The City of Buchanan issues residential building permits in town, the office to check with about a new slab, driveway or foundation before work starts. We also pour in Bremen, Waco and Tallapoosa, the rest of Haralson County, where permits can run through a town's own office or the county's.
