Commercial concrete slabs are the workhorses of a property. They hold up loading docks, storefront approaches, drive aisles, anywhere people and vehicles overlap. These areas never really rest, so the pavement beneath them can’t afford to fail.
Parking Lots Plus: Arkansas Concrete Experts
Parking Lots Plus installs and repairs slabs built specifically for Arkansas sites. Clay soils, steep temperature swings, and year-round traffic all influence how a slab behaves, so we make them with reinforcement and grading techniques suited to local conditions.
The goal: a surface that stays solid and drains well, not one that shifts or cracks under pressure.
Commercial Concrete Slabs for High-Traffic Areas
Unlike smaller pads, slabs spread out under wide loads and absorb turning movements from vehicles. They need structure, not just thickness. A reliable paved area starts long before any cement is poured: proper excavation, base prep, and reinforcement determine how well it will serve your property once it cures.
To show how we create long-lasting commercial concrete slabs, here’s a look at our process from start to finish.
Our Commercial Concrete Slab Construction Process
- We start by grading the site and forming a stable, well-drained aggregate base layer.
- Our crews always compact this foundational layer to reduce the risk of cracking or settlement.
- We next set forms to establish clean edges and correct elevation.
- We always use steel rebar or welded steel mesh to support the weight of vehicle traffic and environmental stress.
- Our flatwork paving crew pours and spreads the material, ensuring even thickness and full coverage across the entire area.
- Our finishing tools produce a smooth, strong concrete slab.
- Our experts know right where to carve control joints.
- After curing, the slab develops the strength needed to support daily use, whether for vehicle flow or industrial equipment.
How Concrete Slabs Fit Into Commercial Paving Projects
Large slabs often tie directly into trucking lanes, loading docks, commercial entrances, or heavy-use drive aisles.
Pairing commercial concrete slab installation with asphalt repairs or general pavement maintenance ensures the entire property functions as one unified system. A stable slab helps prevent stress on surrounding pavement, leading to smoother traffic flow and fewer long-term repairs.
Concrete Slab Repair Across the River Valley
In the River Valley—especially around Fort Smith and Van Buren—commercial concrete slabs are constantly subjected to pressure from semi-truck traffic, aging subgrade, and riverbed soils that expand and contract throughout the year.
Businesses throughout Fort Smith, Van Buren, and Central Arkansas depend on the Parking Lots Plus team to restore concrete slabs that keep their lots functional and safe.
