Concrete Contractors in Wildwood, MO

Wildwood is a very different place to pour concrete than the inner suburbs, and concrete contractors working here plan around distance and slope. The city incorporated on September 1, 1995, and covers about 67 square miles in the far western part of St. Louis County, bordering Chesterfield, Clarkson Valley, Ellisville, Eureka, Pacific and Franklin County. With 35,417 residents and 12,918 housing units in 2020, it is spread thin, with homes on large lots among state parks and wooded hills. We pour long driveways, patios, walks and steps, shop and shed slabs, and we repair or replace concrete that has failed.

The highest ground in the area

Wildwood sits at about 764 feet, higher than neighboring Chesterfield at 515 feet or Ballwin at 623, and its terrain rolls and climbs around Babler State Park, Rockwoods Reservation and the Al Foster Trail. A Wildwood driveway is often long and runs uphill or downhill from the road. On grades like that, a slab has to be thick enough for delivery trucks, finished with enough texture for traction in winter, and drained so water does not sheet down the full length of the drive and wash out the edges.

We plan the drainage first. That can mean a slight crown, a swale along one side, or a trench drain at the bottom where the drive meets the garage. We also look at how the drive meets the road, because that is where washouts and cracks tend to start.

Hauling and access

On large rural lots, getting concrete to the work is part of the job. A long pour might need several trucks lined up on schedule, and a patio behind a house on a hillside might need a pump. We plan staging, truck access and timing on the estimate so the pour goes in continuously and finishes properly.

Outbuildings and equipment pads

Many Wildwood properties have room for a detached garage, workshop, pole barn or equipment pad. Slabs like these need a solid compacted base, the right thickness for the loads they will carry, and reinforcement suited to the use. Tell us what will sit on the slab, from a riding mower to a truck, and we will size it to match.

Patios with a view

Because lots are large and often wooded, back patios here tend to be bigger and more varied: multi-level slabs with steps, walkout patios, and stamped concrete in stone or wood-plank patterns. Where the yard falls away from the house, we can add steps or a retaining edge so the patio sits level without trapping water.

Planning and permits

Wildwood's motto is "Planning Tomorrow Today," and the city takes planning seriously. We check with the city about what permits and reviews your project needs, especially for new driveways, outbuilding slabs or work near the road, before we schedule.
