Concrete work in Pooler
Pooler is a city of about 25,711 people in Chatham County, roughly 7 miles from Savannah. Pooler is one of the fastest-growing towns in the county, and most of its housing is recent. Typical jobs are widening a builder's single-width driveway, adding a patio behind a new house and pouring pads for sheds and generators. The low, level ground around Pooler drains slowly, so we pay close attention to fall and base.
Our crews work out of Savannah and cover Pooler as part of the same service area, so you get the same written, itemized estimate and the same crew that would pour a job in town.
What we pour in Pooler
- Concrete drivewaysNew driveways, tear-out and replacement of cracked or sunken ones, and extra parking beside the drive you have. Poured on a compacted base and sloped so Savannah's summer downpours run off instead of sitting.
- Concrete patiosBackyard patios, pool surrounds, grill pads and courtyard slabs, sized to how you use the space and finished to stay cooler and grippier through a long Savannah summer.
- Concrete slabs and foundationsGarage and workshop floors, shed and generator pads, carport and addition slabs, and footings, built for wet ground and written up so you know exactly what is under the concrete.
- Stamped and decorative concreteStamped patterns, integral color, exposed aggregate and shell-seeded finishes for patios, pool decks, walks and driveway borders, with the look of stone or brick and the upkeep of one solid slab.
- Walkways, sidewalks and stepsFront walks, side-yard paths, steps and stoops, and replacement of sidewalk panels that roots or settlement have lifted into a trip hazard.
- Concrete repair and resurfacingCracks, sunken sections, spalled surfaces and worn-out tops. We find out why the concrete failed first, then repair, resurface or replace the part that needs it.
- Concrete retaining wallsPoured concrete walls that hold back soil at lot edges, driveways, raised yards and along the water, built with the drainage that keeps wet ground from pushing them over.
- Commercial concreteParking pads, sidewalks, dumpster and equipment pads, loading areas and floor slabs for shops, restaurants, churches, HOAs and property managers around Savannah.
Ground, water and the base under the slab
Pooler is on the same low, level coastal plain as Savannah. Before we price a job we look at where rain goes today: downspouts that empty onto the slab area, corners that hold a puddle, edges that have washed out, and old concrete that has already settled. The fix is in the preparation. We dig out soft spots, bring in graded aggregate and compact it, set a fall that carries water away from the house, and cut control joints on a planned layout.
Permits in Pooler
A driveway apron that meets a public street, a wall above a certain height and any slab that carries a building usually need a permit from the City of Pooler or Chatham County. The rules are set locally and differ from Savannah's. We tell you at the estimate which permits apply, and pulling them is part of the job.

Heat and drying
Summer brings about 81 days at 90°F or hotter, 62 of them in June–August. High temperatures speed up setting and drying, which raises the risk of plastic shrinkage cracks. For a summer pour we schedule outside the hottest part of the day and protect the slab from drying too fast. NRMCA's hot-weather guidance covers retarders, early starts and curing.[4]
Cold and freeze-thaw
Freezing nights are a regular part of winter in Pooler, about 19 of them in December–February, but rare outside it. A pour between late fall and early spring may need the cold-weather precautions ACI describes for air temperatures expected below 40°F. For driveways, walks and patios that freeze while wet, NRMCA recommends air-entrained concrete to resist scaling. Our estimates say whether the mix is air-entrained.[2, 3]
With 48 inches of precipitation a year, we plan how fresh concrete gets covered if rain arrives during or soon after the pour, and slope the finished slab to shed water away from the house.
