Concrete Contractor services in Walker
Pine flatwoods once covered the land around Walker, and the soil still behaves like flatwoods soil. It is a pale, silty loam over a tight clay layer, nearly level, and rain sits on top of it instead of soaking in. A yard can look dry and still be soft a few inches down. Concrete poured on that without a proper base settles in the wheel paths first. Walker has grown quickly along the interstate, with new subdivisions on both sides of town, and it flooded badly in 2016 along with the rest of Livingston Parish. We see three kinds of work here. New homes want a patio or a wider drive. Flood-repaired homes need walks and carport slabs redone. And owners of acreage south of town want a concrete pad in front of a shop or a stretch of drive that no longer turns to mud.
