Concrete contractor in Fruithurst, AL

What we pour in Fruithurst

We pour home, garage and metal building foundations here, along with driveways, patios and the smaller flatwork jobs that go with any yard.

Why was Fruithurst first called Summit Cut?

Fruithurst was first known as Summit Cut, a name that came from building the railroad through the area's rolling terrain. Cutting and grading through those hills took real work, and that same rolling ground still shapes lots around town today.

A sloped or uneven site generally needs more grading and a deeper footing than flat ground does, so it helps to describe your lot when you reach out.

Home and shop foundations on rolling ground

A new house gets home foundations and a detached garage or shop gets garage and shop foundations, each to its own plans. The rolling ground here means the site work before the forms go in often matters as much as the pour itself.

Metal building pads, and footings that go deeper on some lots

Squaring a metal building foundation to a carport or steel building's own drawings happens before a single form goes up.

Footings matched to a barn, shed or addition follow whatever's going up, not one fixed number, deeper on some lots than others depending on what's underneath.

Concrete driveways on Fruithurst's rolling lots

We pour new driveways and widen existing ones for a second vehicle or a parking pad added to the side.

Roads through town and the forest to the west

US Route 78 and State Highway 4 run northeast to southwest through Fruithurst, and County Roads 33 and 35 both meet in town, one ending here and the other beginning. Between the four roads, most addresses here are easy enough to place.

Fruithurst also sits just east of the Shoal Creek Ranger District of the Talladega National Forest. It's a different edge of the same forest that reaches up toward Heflin and down past Edwardsville.

Finishing touches: patios, stamped concrete and flatwork

A concrete patio here can stay a plain broom finish, or take on color and a pattern as stamped concrete. Slabs and flatwork cover what's smaller: a walkway to the porch, a set of back steps, a small pad for an AC condenser.

Edwardsville and Heflin are both close by in the same corner of Cleburne County, and Tallapoosa over in Georgia sits just past the county line. If you've got a driveway, a patio or a foundation planned around Fruithurst, tell us about the project and we'll follow up.
