Concrete Work in Monroeville
Monroeville is a small, steady town in southeast Allen County, and homeowners here usually call concrete contractors to replace concrete that has served for decades rather than to pour for brand-new houses. The town was platted in 1851, got its post office in 1856 and was incorporated in the 1860s. Its population has barely moved in half a century, from 1,294 in 1960 to 1,294 again in 2020, and it had 540 housing units at the last census. That stability means much of the town's concrete is old, and a lot of it is due for replacement. We handle driveways, sidewalks, steps, patios and garage and outbuilding slabs.
Long-lived homes, tired concrete
In a town where houses change hands but are rarely torn down, front steps and walks get patched over and over. We often find several generations of repairs on one property: a walk with three different surfaces, steps built up with a new layer on top of an old one, or a driveway with a patch that sits higher than the rest. Layering new concrete over failing concrete rarely lasts. Our approach is to remove what is failing down to a sound base, then pour a full-depth replacement so it can last as long as the original did.
Steps and stoops
Concrete steps are one of the most common requests in older towns like this. Over time a stoop can settle and tip toward the house, or the treads can wear and crack at the edges. We form new steps with consistent riser heights and a small pitch on each tread so water and ice run off, and we can add a railing post sleeve while the concrete is fresh.
Open land and slabs
Monroeville sits at about 790 feet on open farmland, and the town covers only about 0.79 square miles, so the country starts quickly. We pour slabs for detached garages, pole barns and workshops and aprons where gravel lanes meet buildings. The town is also known in cycling circles: in 2005 the Monroeville Community Center, which offers cyclist-only lodging, received the Adventure Cycling Association's Trail Angel Award. A quiet route through town means many riders pass the same streets we work on.

Monroeville Questions
Can you pour new concrete over my old steps?
We usually advise against it. Thin layers over failing concrete tend to crack and peel. Removing the old steps and forming new full-depth ones lasts much longer.
Do you work outside town on farm properties?
Yes. We pour garage, shop and pole barn slabs and barn aprons across Monroe Township and the nearby countryside.
How long before I can use a new walk?
Foot traffic is usually fine after a day or two, depending on the weather. We give you specific timing for walks and for driveways, which need longer before vehicles drive on them.
