Site Prep and Forming in Phoenix, AZ
Site prep, grading, and form work for slabs, pads and paths, the foundation of any concrete job.
Licensed Phoenix, Arizona General Contractor - ROC 367058 (R-62)
What's included
- Layout and string lines
- Excavation
- Compaction
- Form boards and stakes
- Grade checks
- Prep for pour
Common problems I see in Phoenix homes
- Caliche that is hard to dig
- Soft expansive clay
- Poor drainage grades
- Forms not square or level
Phoenix soil ranges from caliche to expansive clay, and summer slab temperatures pass 150 F. Good base prep, control joints and curing (especially keeping fresh concrete from drying too fast in the heat) are what make concrete last here. City or HOA rules may apply to driveways and work near the street.
How I approach site prep and forming
I check grade and drainage before setting forms so the slab is flat where it should be and sloped where water needs to go.
