Concrete services in Williston, ND
Williston Concrete is a concrete contractor in Williston, ND, with 16 services that run from a new driveway to a cut through a foundation wall. The price mostly comes down to size, thickness, how much digging and base work the ground needs, whether old concrete comes out first and how fancy the finish gets. The schedule turns on the weather and on curing, the wait while fresh concrete gains strength before it can take weight. I write a free estimate on site that names the concrete we plan to order, so you know what you're paying for.
We dig out, pack the base and pour new concrete driveways, then cut control joints, shallow grooves that tell any cracks where to go.
Want a patio that drains away from the house? We set the slope before the pour so rain runs to the yard instead of toward your foundation.
Stamped concrete is a regular pour pressed with patterned mats while it's still soft, so a patio, walk or pool deck can look like stone or brick.
We build walks to the front door, around the house and out to the yard, with a broom finish, a brushed texture that helps feet grip.
A cracked, sinking garage floor usually means the base underneath gave out, so we tear it out, rebuild the base and pour a slab built for vehicles.
Decorative concrete covers color, exposed stone, scored lines and other finishes for homeowners and businesses who want more than plain gray on a patio, walk or entry.
Is a slope washing dirt onto your patio? We form and pour concrete retaining walls with rebar, steel bars inside that help hold the wall together.
We pour interior concrete floors for basements, shops and commercial spaces, set level and finished smooth or textured for what the room has to handle.
We pour concrete pool decks sloped so splash water runs away from the pool edge, with a textured finish so wet feet keep their grip.
Crumbling front steps are a trip waiting to happen, so we tear them out and form new concrete steps with even heights and a surface that sheds water.
For a garage, shop or addition built right on the ground, we pack the subgrade, the soil the slab sits on, and pour a reinforced slab foundation.
We form and pour foundations for new houses, additions and commercial buildings, starting with the footings and building the walls to the plans.
We build concrete parking lots for small businesses and shops, with the base and slab thickness sized for the traffic and joints cut where cracks should go.
Footings are the wide concrete pads under walls, posts and foundations that spread weight into the ground, and we dig and pour them for additions, decks and outbuildings.
When a slab or foundation sinks and cracks open up, we lift it back toward level and fill the gap underneath so it has support again.
Need a doorway through a foundation wall or a trench through a slab? We saw-cut concrete for homeowners and businesses, using water to keep the dust down.
Why homeowners and businesses hire us
Every reason below comes down to one habit. I'd rather tell you something hard at the estimate, or move a pour date, than leave you with a slab that cracks and sinks in a few years.
The estimator runs the pour
I'm the one who walks your job and writes the estimate, and I'm also the one standing there when the truck backs in. Nothing gets lost between what you were told and what gets built.
We move pours for bad weather
If the weather is wrong for a pour, I'll call and pick a new date instead of gambling with your concrete. A slab poured in the wrong conditions can end up with a weak, dusty top.
Bids you can compare fairly
Your estimate names the concrete we plan to order, so you can line it up against other bids on the same terms instead of guessing what each contractor is actually pricing.
The money goes into the base
The base is buried on day one, so it's the first thing people cut to save money. I'd rather trim the fancy finish than skimp on digging out and packing what holds the slab up.
How a concrete job runs, start to finish
Here's what happens after you reach out, from our reply within one business day to a free, no-obligation estimate and pour day.
- +01
Call or send the form
Call (701) 401-8095 or send the contact form with a few lines about the job, like a cracked driveway, a new patio or a wall that needs a doorway cut. We reply within one business day to set a time for me to come out.
- +02
I look and write the estimate
I come out, look at the ground and any old concrete, and ask what the slab is for, since a patio and a driveway need different builds. Then I write up a free estimate with no obligation, naming the concrete we'd order for your job.
- +03
We plan and pour
Once you say go, we work out with you whether the city or the county covers your address and take care of the permit paperwork if the job calls for one. Then we pick a pour date with the weather in mind, and my crew and I do the work ourselves.
- +04
Curing and cleanup
After the pour we cut the control joints, clean up the site and walk you through curing. I'll tell you when the slab is fine to walk on and when it's ready for a car, because driving on it early is the fastest way to crack new concrete.

Concrete work in Williston and the cities around it
Williston is home base, and most of our calls come from houses and small businesses here and in the cities around it. People in town know Recreation Park for its playground and sand volleyball, Davidson Park for its open space, and the James Memorial Art Center, the old library building residents saved and turned into a center for the visual arts.
Around here we see a lot of tired driveways, garage slabs, shop floors and steps on older houses, plus new slabs and foundations for additions and outbuildings. Inside city limits, the City of Williston handles building permits, and outside a city's limits Williams County's Building Division does, which is why the address matters before we plan anything.

Questions about concrete in Williston, ND
Can I get a concrete driveway price over the phone in Williston?
Not a real one, because the ground, the drainage and the old concrete change the job as much as the size does. I'd rather see it and give you a number I can stand behind. The estimate is free and done on site.
Does stamped concrete cost more than a plain concrete slab?
Yes, stamped and decorative finishes usually cost more than a plain broom finish because they take more labor, color and time on pour day. If the budget's tight, I'll tell you to keep the base and save on the finish.
How long before I can drive on a new concrete driveway?
Longer than you'll wait to walk on it, because concrete keeps gaining strength for days after the pour and a car weighs a lot more than you do. I'll give you both dates for your slab before we leave, based on the mix and the weather.
Does a concrete contractor need a license in North Dakota?
Yes, when a job's cost, value or price is over $4,000, whoever does the work has to hold a North Dakota contractor license, subcontractors included. Inside Williston, the city also wants a copy of that license and the contractor's liability coverage before it issues a permit.
Do you remove the old concrete before pouring a new driveway or patio?
Usually yes, because pouring over a cracked or sinking slab carries its problems into the new one. We break it out, haul it off and check the base underneath before anything new goes down.
Do you guarantee your concrete work?
Yes, our promise is your satisfaction, guaranteed. What we control is the base, the joints and the pour timing, and I'll tell you straight at the estimate what to expect from your slab.
Will my new concrete slab crack like the old one did?
It can still crack, since almost all concrete does somewhere, but a dug-out, packed base and control joints cut on time keep cracks in the joints instead of across the middle. Most old slabs I see cracked because the base settled or the joints were skipped.
Who do I ask about a permit for a driveway approach or sidewalk in Williston?
The city's Building Safety office doesn't issue permits for sidewalks, driveway aprons and approaches, so those questions go to Engineering in the Public Works Department at 701-577-6368. We'll sort out with you which office covers your job before we start.
