Albany Concrete is a licensed concrete contractor serving Statesboro, GA with floor installation, driveways, patios, and slab foundations - built for Georgia Coastal Plain sandy soil and Bulloch County rainfall, serving residential and rental properties across the area. We respond to Statesboro requests within 1 business day.
Statesboro sits on Georgia Coastal Plain sandy soil where slab-on-grade floors are standard - and where poor base preparation leads to settling and cracking within a few years. Whether you need a garage floor, a workshop slab, or a replacement for an aging mid-century floor, our concrete floor installation process includes the base compaction and gravel layer that keep slabs stable in Bulloch County soil.
Statesboro has a large share of older homes built from the 1950s through the 1970s, and many of their original driveways have been patched repeatedly rather than replaced. Sandy soil that shifts with wet and dry cycles is the typical cause. A full driveway replacement with proper base prep stops the cycle - patches on a compromised base will always fail again.
Statesboro gets about 47 to 49 inches of rain per year, and a patio that is not properly sloped becomes a standing water problem every time it storms. We build patios with a deliberate drainage grade so water runs away from the home - important for properties in Statesboro where the flat Coastal Plain terrain can trap water near foundations on slower-draining lots.
Slab foundations are the dominant choice in Statesboro because the flat Coastal Plain terrain and sandy soil make them practical and cost-effective. New additions, detached garages, and replacement foundations on older properties all require a slab that accounts for Bulloch County soil movement - which we assess on-site before any pour begins.
Near Georgia Southern University and throughout older Statesboro neighborhoods, sidewalks and walkways take heavy foot traffic year-round. Sections that have settled, cracked, or developed trip hazards are a liability as much as an eyesore. We remove damaged sections and pour replacements with the control joints and thickness needed to stay level in this soil type.
Many of Statesboro's mid-century brick ranch homes have original concrete entry steps that have separated from the foundation or cracked through years of soil movement. A properly attached and reinforced set of concrete steps - anchored to the structure, not just resting on the ground - does not shift with the soil the way standalone steps tend to do in this region.
Statesboro sits in the Georgia Coastal Plain, a flat region with sandy, well-draining soil that sits roughly 200 feet above sea level with very little elevation change. That sandy soil drains fast - but it also shifts as wet and dry seasons cycle through Bulloch County each year. Slab foundations are standard here precisely because the terrain suits them, but a slab is only as good as what it sits on. A significant portion of Statesboro housing was built between the 1950s and 1980s, and the original slabs under those homes have been absorbing that soil movement for decades. Cracks that keep coming back after patching are a sign the base beneath the slab is the real problem.
The presence of Georgia Southern University creates a rental market that is larger than in most comparable Georgia cities. Rental properties cycle through tenants regularly and often carry deferred maintenance - older garage slabs, cracked driveways, and damaged walkways that have been ignored for years because the cost was easy to defer. When landlords do address those issues, they need work that will hold up through multiple tenant cycles without requiring attention again quickly. That means proper base prep, not just a surface patch.
We pull permits through Bulloch County on structural concrete projects in Statesboro - floor slabs connected to buildings, garage pours, and any concrete that functions as a foundation element all fall under the county permit requirement. We handle the filing and scheduling with the county as part of the job, so the homeowner or landlord does not have to chase the paperwork.
The homes we work on most in Statesboro range from older brick ranches near downtown to newer vinyl-sided houses in subdivisions off Brannen Road and Highway 67. Whether a job is near the older streets close to Paulson Stadium or in a newer subdivision on the south side of town, the soil conditions across Bulloch County behave consistently - sandy, prone to settling, and sensitive to the wet-dry cycles that come with Georgia summers.
We also serve nearby cities along the corridor. If you are in Macon, GA or over in Valdosta, GA, we cover those areas with the same concrete work and the same approach to Georgia soil conditions.
Contact us by phone or through the online form and we respond within 1 business day. We ask about the type of work, the approximate size, and whether there is an existing slab to remove - so the on-site visit is focused and efficient. No phone quotes: soil conditions in Statesboro vary enough between older in-town lots and newer subdivisions that an in-person look is the only reliable way to price a job.
We visit the property, assess the soil and drainage, measure the work area, and check equipment access. You receive a written estimate that covers every phase - site prep, demolition if needed, the pour, and cleanup. There is no cost for the estimate and no obligation. For rental properties, we can coordinate the visit around tenant schedules.
If the project requires a Bulloch County permit, we file it before any work begins. The permit process typically adds one to two weeks to the timeline. Once approved, we schedule your start date around the weather - preferring the spring and fall windows when Georgia temperatures allow concrete to cure most evenly. We let you know the timeline in writing before we start.
The crew handles every phase from base preparation through the final pour and surface finishing. Before leaving, we walk you through the finished work and give clear instructions on when it is safe to use the surface - typically 24 to 48 hours for foot traffic and one full week for vehicles. If a Bulloch County inspection is required, we coordinate that directly.
We respond to Statesboro and Bulloch County requests within 1 business day. The on-site visit is free and there is no obligation - you get a written estimate and decide from there.
(229) 304-1369Statesboro is the county seat of Bulloch County and home to roughly 33,000 residents, with the broader county adding another 45,000 or so. Georgia Southern University - with around 26,000 students - is the largest employer in the area and shapes much of the city's character, economy, and housing market. That student population drives a rental market that is significantly larger than what you find in most comparable Georgia cities, with a mix of apartments, converted homes, and purpose-built student housing spread across the city. Statesboro sits about 60 miles northwest of Savannah along the US-301 corridor and functions as a regional hub for surrounding rural Bulloch County communities.
The residential character of Statesboro is defined by a contrast between older neighborhoods near downtown - built mostly with single-story brick ranch homes from the 1950s through the 1970s - and newer subdivisions on the outskirts built with vinyl siding and fiber cement board. Both housing types sit on slab-on-grade foundations, which is the standard for the Georgia Coastal Plain. We work throughout Statesboro and serve nearby cities in both directions, including Macon to the northwest and Valdosta to the south.
