Brushed concrete of any size
We take brushed-finish concrete jobs of any size: driveways, patios, sidewalks, slabs, and pole-barn and garage floors. A brushed finish is the broom texture on most sidewalks, and it gives shoes and tires grip when wet. We also pour the footers under every deck we build, and we install flake epoxy floors over concrete. Decorative and stamped concrete we do only as part of a larger project.
Co-owner Ryan Bolinger runs the day-to-day on every job. We pour concrete in Terre Haute, Brazil, West Terre Haute, Clay City, Sullivan, Clinton, Linton, Rockville, Greencastle and the towns around them, plus Marshall, Paris and Casey, Illinois. Travel is built into the bid price. Our office is at 300 Ohio Street, Suite E, but we don’t take walk-ins, so please call first if you’d like to stop by.

What concrete costs with us
The small brushed slabs and patios we’ve built have run about $45 to $50 per square foot, with site prep like grading and base included. Those jobs were about 80 to 280 square feet, and the totals ran about $3,600 to $13,500. Driveways and larger slabs cost far less per square foot: typically $10 to $15 for a 4- to 5-inch brushed driveway on a compacted stone base, with reinforcement. Flake epoxy floors run $7 to $10 per square foot.
We don’t price by the square foot. Every proposal is built from the actual cost of your job — materials, labor, equipment, permits and overhead. The per-square-foot figures here are simply what our past bids have worked out to.
The small-slab number is high because some costs, like getting a skid steer and the crew to the site, are about the same for a small pad as for a bigger slab. On a long driveway or a pole-barn floor they’re spread over more square feet. Large garage and pole-barn floors, 600 square feet and up, usually run about $8 to $12 per square foot, and tearing out and hauling off old concrete adds about $2 to $4 per square foot.
Recent concrete jobs
- Brazil, 2025. About 200 square feet of 4-inch brushed slab, with skid-steer grading and a crushed-concrete base. About $9,800.
- Wright Township area, 2026. Old concrete broken out and about 4 tons hauled off, then a new hot-tub patio and sidewalk, poured as part of a larger deck job. About $13,500 for the concrete.
- Terre Haute, 2026. A small formed front pad, poured as part of a deck job. About $3,600 for the concrete.
What moves the price
- Size. Square footage is the base of the price, and larger pours cost less per foot.
- Tear-out. Breaking out old concrete and hauling it off is heavy labor plus disposal.
- Site prep. How much grading it takes to get the slab level and draining, and how much base goes under it.
- Thickness and reinforcement. Patios and sidewalks are usually 4 inches thick, like the Brazil slab above. Driveways typically go 4 to 5 inches with reinforcement, and a floor that carries trucks or heavy equipment may go thicker.
- Shape and steps. Curves, steps and odd shapes take more forming than a rectangle.
Your proposal is one all-inclusive price with the permit and sales tax built in. Concrete jobs are paid as a 75% deposit and 25% on completion, and financing through HFS is available.
Epoxy floors
The epoxy system we install is full-broadcast flake. We pull up any old flooring and glue, grind the concrete so the coating can bond, prime it, broadcast flake across the whole floor, and finish with a urethane topcoat. Epoxy over a slab that wasn’t prepared will peel.
Flake epoxy floors typically run $7 to $10 per square foot, and small single-car floors land at the top of that range. Our two most recent, both in 2026:
- Paris, Illinois. A garage-size floor, about 1,000 square feet by our estimate, with an industrial urethane topcoat. About $8,900, or roughly $8.90 per square foot.
- Brazil. About 2,000 square feet in a new home’s finish package. About $13,200, or roughly $6.60 per square foot.
We’ve also coated commercial office floors as part of commercial build-outs.
How we pour a slab
Locates and layout. We call 811 before any digging, so buried gas, electric and cable lines get marked. Then we lay out the slab with you and look at how the ground drains. A new slab should shed water away from the house, not toward it.
Tear-out, grading and base. Old concrete gets broken out and hauled away. Then we grade the site and put down a compacted base, so the slab sits on firm, even ground instead of loose dirt.
Forms, pour and finish. Forms set the shape and finished height, and a broom pulled across the leveled concrete gives it the brushed texture. Concrete shrinks as it cures, so every slab wants to crack somewhere. Control joints, the straight grooves across a sidewalk, give it a planned place to crack. On a 4-inch slab we typically cut them about every 8 to 10 feet, and closer together on sidewalks.
We work to the NAHB Residential Construction Performance Guidelines, which limit how wide a crack in concrete can get before it counts as a defect. Plywood protects your lawn where equipment crosses it, and we haul away waste every day at our cost.
Permits and the city right-of-way
Inside Terre Haute, the city code requires a permit for construction and site work, and driveways aren’t on its list of exempt projects. In unincorporated Vigo County, patios fall under the county’s accessory-structure permit. We pull the permits, and the cost is in our price.
Drive approaches, curb cuts and public sidewalks in the City of Terre Haute right-of-way need a separate right-of-way permit from the city’s Department of Engineering, applied for at least 7 days ahead, plus city inspections. We pull the building permits on our concrete jobs and will walk you through the right-of-way permit at your estimate. Rules vary by town, and the office that issues the permit has the final word.

We’d rather tell you now than waste your time or ours.

Concrete questions
How much does concrete cost per square foot in Terre Haute?
The small brushed slabs and patios we’ve built ran about $45 to $50 per square foot with site prep included. Driveways typically run $10 to $15 per square foot, and large garage and pole-barn floors about $8 to $12. The site visit and estimate are free.
Do you pour driveways?
Yes, in any size, along with pole-barn and garage floors. A drive approach in the city right-of-way has extra permit rules, which we’ll go over at the site visit.
Do you do stamped or decorative concrete?
Only as part of a larger project, not as a job by itself.
Do I need a permit for a patio or driveway?
Inside Terre Haute, plan on one, and in unincorporated Vigo County, patios fall under the county’s accessory-structure permit. We pull the permit, and the cost is in our price.
How soon can I walk or drive on it?
You can usually walk on new concrete after 24 to 48 hours and drive a car on it after about 7 days. It reaches its design strength around 28 days, so keep heavy trucks and equipment off until then. Epoxy floors typically take light foot traffic after about 24 hours and vehicles after several days, following the coating manufacturer’s cure times. Most concrete jobs take 1 to 3 days on site, plus that curing time.
What does an epoxy garage floor cost?
Flake epoxy floors typically run $7 to $10 per square foot, with small single-car floors at the top of the range. Grinding, primer and a clear topcoat are included.
