Ultra-Flow Concrete is our primary specialty mix and it has been developed to help our customers improve their profitability and reduce costs. This mix uses the latest in concrete technology available today and allows you to place concrete at a 6-8 inch slump using no added water. The advantages of this unique mix are numerous:

1. It can be placed 30% faster than conventional concrete increasing your productivity.

2. It pumps faster and easier, allowing for reduced pump pressures, fewer problems with harsh mixes and increased output of concrete pumped, reducing the pump rental time on a job.

3. Compressive strengths are the same or greater than conventional 4 inch slump concrete.

4. Plastic shrinkage cracking is reduced due to the more uniform and controlled bleed rate of the concrete.

5. Finishing is significantly easier than concrete of the same cement content due to its increased creaminess, allowing for more square feet per hour to be finished per man.

6. Bugholes and honeycombing on walls and columns are reduced dramatically.

7. Concrete durability is improved as well.

All these features when added together equal a high quality job with significantly less problems and fewer call backs.

Ultra-Flow Concrete is great for any place where high-quality concrete is needed - such as walls, slabs, patios, columns, and driveways. It is available in 2500, 3000, 3500, and 4000 psi strengths and in grout mixes. Special mixes can be made upon request.

We specialize in color and provide for excellent quality control when utilizing colored concrete.
