Need a patio poured
Posted on 2/4/14 at 3:46 pm
Posted on 2/4/14 at 3:46 pm
I'm looking for some recommendations on who to use to pour my patio. It's going to be 25ft x 15ft and they will have to wheelbarrow the concrete in or bring a small mixer. I want to make sure they will dig, form, pour and finish it. Can you give me some info on some people who have used? I'm just looking for a ballpark figure when I call them because I have no idea how much this is going to cost.

Why do they have to wheelbarrow? Long way from road? No access? Don't want to mess up the yard?

No access and it's probably too far. It's behind my house with a fence. They won't be able to bring a truck or extend the chute.
My husband said they will have to use a buggy or whatever they call it.

Might be cheaper to reset the fence than to wheelbarrow, depending on distance...

Georgia buggy. You need one!

I had a 18x20 patio poured and they used the Georgia bucket and it was about $1,000

you're talking around 5-6 yards of concrete......id say around +/- $105ish per yard with the short load fee and such.
Should be able to get someone to dig....form and finish it for somewhere around the 1k ballpark.

Could pump it as well. I have a guy that covers Birmingham to Atlanta. He is cheap. Doesn't use a huge pump truck. Uses a bumper drawn pump behind a pickup truck. There are options......

Will need pics to see how much of a discount you may or may not get

With a 4" slab you're looking at almost 5 yds. That's around $500 just in concrete. Not sure how much the labor is gonna cost you. Probably another $1500

About to have a 15x24 done also, waiting on warmer weather to run plumbing and electrical though. Neighbors FIL runs a concrete company, told me full job would run around 1K, but you can save some money if you dig, frame, and rebar yourself. He didnt say how much but would have to be a good amount to make it worth it IMO.

plan on $2.50 per sq yd, labor and all materials if you gotta roll it instead of tailgate it. i just updated my pricing info for some work i have coming up. let me know if you need a name/number, assuming your in the greater BR area.

The guy I talked to said ball park would be about $2000-$2400 for everything. Dig it, form it, pour it, finish it, materials including concrete and the buggy. It sounded high to me but I wasn't for sure what was the going rate.
