Concrete work we do in Manchester, NH

R&S Manchester Concrete Construction is a concrete contractor in Manchester, NH, and we offer 16 services, from driveways and patios to foundations and cutting. Most calls start with something you can see, like a driveway that's sinking, a patio that's cracked through or water pooling by the steps. The price mostly comes down to size, how much old concrete comes out, the base work underneath and the finish you pick. The schedule turns on the weather, anything the building office asks for and curing, the wait while new concrete hardens before you use it. Your free estimate spells out what's included.

  • A wide concrete driveway curves from the road to a brick house and detached garage, bordered by lawns and trees.

    Concrete driveway building

    We dig out the old driveway or start fresh, pack a firm base and pour a slab with a broom finish, a brushed texture that gives tires grip.

  • Covered stone patio with patterned paving, white columns, ceiling fans, and blue cushioned seating.

    Concrete patio construction

    Want room out back for a grill and a table? We build patios sloped away from the house, so rain runs off instead of pooling by the wall.

  • Stamped concrete patio with a circular fire pit, curved stone seating wall, and two lighted pillars.

    Stamped concrete services

    Stamped concrete is pressed and colored to look like stone, brick or slate, for patios and walks where you want more than plain gray.

  • Concrete sidewalk of large rectangular slabs with narrow planted joints runs beside a dark modern building and street.

    Concrete sidewalk building

    We build walks from the driveway to the door or around the side of the house, with control joints, grooves cut so cracks follow a line we pick.

  • A stamped concrete patio walkway winds through a garden with flowering plants, benches, and outdoor tables.

    Garage floor concrete

    A garage floor carries car weight and dropped tools, so we pour it on a packed base with rebar, steel that helps hold the slab together.

  • Light concrete sidewalk and driveway beside a house, bordered by a narrow bed of ornamental grasses.

    Decorative concrete

    What counts as decorative concrete? It's color, patterns and special finishes added to a slab, for anyone who wants the patio or entry to look finished, not poured.

  • A light concrete patio runs along a brick house, bordered by flower beds and a green lawn at sunset.

    Concrete retaining walls

    We pour retaining walls that hold back a slope, with drainage behind them so water doesn't push on the wall, turning a hillside yard into usable flat ground.

  • Broad gray concrete steps and a tiled walkway lead to a green front door beside a raised stone garden bed.

    Concrete floor installation

    For a basement, shop or commercial space, we prepare the ground underneath, then pour and finish a flat concrete floor that's easy to sweep.

  • Concrete pool deck with a modern pergola, umbrella, and seating beside a bright blue swimming pool.

    Concrete pool decks

    A pool deck has to drain fast and stay comfortable underfoot, so we slope it away from the water and give it a texture that grips wet feet.

  • Wide stone-faced outdoor steps climb between matching retaining walls to a gated terrace above a lawn.

    Concrete steps construction

    We build concrete steps for front and back doors, with each step the same height so they're easy to climb, and a finish that grips when it's wet.

  • A large freshly poured concrete slab extends from a house across a gravel construction site.

    Slab foundation building

    Building a garage, addition or shed? A slab foundation is one pour that serves as both floor and base, and we set it on dug-out, packed ground.

  • A large rectangular pool is surrounded by a patterned concrete deck with lounge chairs and a brick house beyond.

    Foundation installation

    We form and pour foundation walls for new homes, additions and commercial buildings, working from your builder's plans so the structure above sits square and level.

  • A broad broom-finished concrete driveway curves past a lawn toward a detached garage and a single-story home.

    Concrete parking lot building

    For businesses and landlords, we build concrete parking lots graded so water runs to the drains instead of sitting in puddles across the lot.

  • A clean garage has a speckled gray concrete floor, two closed overhead doors, and matching concrete steps in the foreground.

    Concrete footings

    Footings are the concrete base under a wall, deck post or porch, and we dig and pour them to the depth your plans call for.

  • A broad speckled concrete patio extends beside a brick house, bordered by garden beds and flowers.

    Foundation raising

    Doors sticking, cracks over windows or a corner of the house that's dropped? Foundation raising lifts and supports a settled foundation to bring it back toward level.

  • A stamped concrete patio with rectangular stone-like patterns surrounds a circular fire pit and curved block wall beside a pond.

    Concrete cutting

    When you need a doorway in a foundation wall, a trench through a floor for plumbing or a cracked section removed, we saw-cut concrete with clean, straight edges.

Meet the Manchester crew behind your concrete

R&S Manchester Concrete Construction is a concrete contractor in Manchester, NH, and I started it in 2017 after years on restaurant lines and on other people's crews. A busy kitchen taught me that prep and timing decide how a dish turns out, and concrete works the same way. We're licensed and insured, we offer 16 services, and 12 of the cities we work in have their own page on this site. You can read more about us and how we got started.

About us

Why hire us for your Manchester concrete

  1. The owner quotes it and pours it

    I walk your job and write the estimate myself, then I'm on site with our crew for the work. Nothing gets lost between what we talked about and what goes in the ground.

  2. Pour dates set by the weather

    We pick the pour date with the season and the forecast in mind, because concrete gives you one shot. Pouring in midday heat can leave a weak, dusty top, so timing matters.

  3. Estimates that show what's included

    Your estimate spells out tear out, base work and haul away, so you can set it next to another quote and compare fairly. You'll know what you're paying for before we start.

  4. Options explained in plain words

    I lay out your options plainly, and I'll tell you straight when an upgrade isn't worth the money for your property. You choose what fits your space and budget, not what's easiest for us.

Concrete work, up close

From your first call to the finished pour

  1. Call or send a message

    Call (603) 314-3764 or use the form and tell us what you have in mind, whether it's a cracked driveway, a new patio or a foundation for an addition. We get back to you within one business day to set a time for me to come out and see it.

  2. I walk the site with you

    I come out myself, walk the property with you and listen to what you want. I look at the ground, where the water runs and what has to come out. Then I write up a free estimate that shows what's included, and there's no pressure to book.

  3. We prep and pour

    Once you say go, we check with the local building office about your job. If a permit's needed, we either file it or walk you through it, depending on whose name they want on it. Then we pick a pour date that suits the season, dig out, pack the base and pour.

  4. We walk the finished job

    When the concrete's in, we walk the finished job together so you can see the joints, the finish and how the water runs off. I go over how to care for it, including how long to stay off it while it cures, so it gets the strength it needs.

Common concrete questions in Manchester, NH

How much does a concrete driveway cost in Manchester, NH?

It depends mostly on the size, how much old concrete has to come out and how much base work the ground needs, so I give you a figure after walking the site. Thickness, how easily the truck can reach the spot and any stamped or colored finish move it too. Your free estimate lists each piece.

Why are concrete quotes so different from one contractor to the next?

Usually because they don't include the same work, like tearing out the old slab, digging out and packing the base, or hauling the debris away. A low quote that rakes the dirt level instead of digging it out can cost you later, when the slab settles with the dirt. If something has to give in the budget, I'd trim the finish before the base.

How long will I be without my driveway after a new concrete pour?

Most of the wait is curing, not the work itself, and you'll be able to walk on it well before you can drive on it. I'll give you the dates for your pour on the final walk-through, and we plan the pour date so the wait falls when it suits you best.

Is R&S Manchester Concrete Construction licensed and insured?

Yes, we're licensed and insured. Feel free to ask about it when I come out for the estimate, and ask the same of anyone else you're comparing.

What do I need to do to get my yard ready for a concrete pour?

Not much, just move cars, planters and anything stored where we'll be working, and make sure the truck has a way to reach the spot. We handle the dig out, forms, pour and cleanup. If something nearby matters to you, like a garden bed, point it out when I walk the site.

Do you guarantee your concrete work?

Yes, our promise is simple. Your satisfaction, guaranteed. If something about the finished job doesn't look right to you, bring it up on the final walk-through and we'll talk it through together.

Will my new concrete slab crack like the old one did?

Concrete can crack, so we work on where and why it happens instead of pretending it won't. We cut control joints on time so any cracks follow those grooves in a straight line, and we check where the water runs so the slab falls away from your house.

Do I need a permit for concrete work in Manchester, NH?

It depends on the job, so we check with the city's Building Division before work starts, since it handles building permits, plan reviews and inspections. Many outdoor projects there need a site plan drawn to scale that shows your structures and their distance from the lot lines, and we help you put that together.
