Introduction to

     Residential Concrete Services

Tac Construction & Home Improvements provides durable residential concrete in St. Louis, Missouri. From new installations to repairs and refinishing, every project is managed with clear communication, fair pricing, and attention to detail. The company is owner-operated, which means you work directly with the professional who will plan the job, set expectations, and be on site to make sure the finished concrete looks great and performs for years. If you need a new driveway, patio, steps, sidewalks, or a garage floor, you will get honest guidance on thickness, reinforcement, drainage, and finish options so your project stands up to Midwest weather.

Why Concrete

Quality Matters

Concrete is only as good as its base, mix, and finish. Poor soil prep and thin slabs lead to cracking and heaving, especially after freeze-thaw cycles common in St. Louis. Proper grading moves water away from foundations, the right mix design improves strength and surface durability, and correct joint spacing helps control cracks. Finishing technique also matters; an overworked surface may scale or flake, while a correctly timed broom, stamped, or exposed aggregate finish resists wear and maintains traction. Choosing an experienced contractor protects your investment and reduces long-term maintenance.

Key Benefits

of Choosing Tac Construction

You work with a dedicated professional who goes the extra mile on details that most people never see but always feel over time. Subgrade is compacted and, when appropriate, a base layer is installed for support and drainage. Forms are squared and reinforced to maintain clean lines and consistent slab thickness. Expansion and control joints are laid out with purpose to help prevent random cracking. Where needed, rebar or wire mesh is added for strength, and edges are tooled to reduce chipping. Finishes are matched to your goals: a clean broom finish for traction, decorative stamped or colored concrete for curb appeal, or exposed aggregate for texture and a classic look. Sealing options are explained so you understand how to protect the surface and keep it looking good.

Concrete Installation

New pours for driveways, patios, sidewalks, steps, and garage floors. Projects are measured carefully, utilities are located, and a clear schedule is provided so you know what to expect from tear-out to final seal.

Driveways and Sidewalks

Old, cracked slabs can be removed and replaced with properly supported concrete sized for daily traffic. Driveways are typically broom finished for traction with clean, straight joints and crisp edges along turf or landscape beds. Sidewalks are graded for smooth transitions at entries and curbs.

Concrete Repair and Refinishing

Trip hazards, spalling, and scaling can often be addressed through selective tear-out and replacement, patching, or surface refinishing. You will get a straightforward assessment of what can be repaired and when replacement is a smarter choice.

Steps and Garage Floors

Entry steps are formed for consistent rise and run, with options for integral color or textured treads for safety. Garage floors are pitched toward the overhead door or a floor drain to move water out, with reinforcement to handle vehicles and shop use.

Colored and Stamped Concrete

If you want the look of stone, slate, or wood without the maintenance, stamped concrete delivers strong design impact. Color hardeners, release agents, and sealers are combined to create depth and realism while preserving the performance of a concrete slab.

What to Expect

of Choosing Tac Construction

Initial conversation clarifies goals, budget, and timeline. A site visit follows to evaluate access, grading, drainage, and any permitting needs. You receive a written proposal explaining scope, materials, reinforcement, finish, and cleanup. On project day, the crew protects surrounding areas, removes old concrete if needed, prepares the base, sets forms, places reinforcement, pours the mix, and finishes at the proper time. After curing, the slab is cleaned and, when appropriate, sealed. You also receive care guidelines covering traffic timing, winter protection, de-icing choices, and routine maintenance so your concrete stays strong and attractive.

 Frequently Asked Questions

  • How long does a typical residential project take?

    Most driveways, patios, and similar projects are completed within a few days from start of tear-out to final finish, followed by curing time before vehicles or heavy furniture are placed on the surface.

  • When can I walk or drive on new concrete?

    Light foot traffic is usually possible after about one day, while vehicles typically wait several days depending on temperature and mix. You will receive specific guidance for your project.

  • What affects concrete pricing?

    Access, square footage, base preparation, thickness, reinforcement, finish type, and disposal of old material all influence cost. You will get a clear, itemized proposal before work begins.

  • How do I reduce cracking?

    Proper base, reinforcement, and joint spacing greatly help. While hairline cracks are common in all concrete, good design and installation minimize their impact and keep the slab performing well.

  • Is stamped or exposed aggregate slippery?

    Both finishes are installed to balance appearance with traction. Texture, broom borders, and sealer choice are discussed to meet your safety needs.
