Ridgeform Builders · Concrete and structures since 2009
The structure everything stands on.
We build concrete frames, foundations and floors for developers, owners and design-build teams. Scroll through one pour day on level 9, from the first floodlight to the last trowel, and see how we work.
We start before the city does.
Our crew is on deck before sunrise, so the pump arrives to a slab that's ready, not a crew that's waiting. Early starts are how we hold a 7-day floor cycle.
11,400 ties. Every one checked.
Reinforcement goes in exactly to the engineer's drawings and is inspected before a single truck is called. What's in your slab is what's on the drawing.

The first truck, on the minute.
We book the batch plant, pumps and traffic control ourselves, so trucks arrive in sequence and the pour never stops.

Level to within 3 mm.
Screeded to laser levels while the concrete is still workable, so your floor finishes, partitions and coverings go straight down without packing or grinding.
Mirror-flat by sunset.
Power-trowelled as soon as the slab can take it, for a hard, dense, dust-free surface that's ready for polishing or direct finishes.
Floor 9 of 24. Back tomorrow.
Every slab, every day, until the roof. That's what you're hiring.
