Moon Township, PA Concrete Contractor
Ultimate Concrete Service covers Moon Township, roughly fifteen miles from our base in Beaver. Moon is a different kind of job from most of what we do in Beaver County. The housing here is substantially newer, the lots were graded by a developer rather than settled into over a century, and the airport corridor means there is real commercial and light industrial work alongside the residential. Dave Felouzis handles both, and the standards do not change between them.
Newer Subdivisions and Developer Grading
The suburban development that shaped Moon produced a lot of homes on lots that were cut and filled to create buildable ground. That is normal and it is not a defect, but it does create a specific pattern we see repeatedly here.
Fill settles. A lot that was graded twenty or thirty years ago has usually finished most of its consolidation, but not always evenly, and concrete poured on the fill side of a cut and fill lot behaves differently from concrete poured on the cut side. When we see a driveway or patio that has cracked and dropped along one distinct line, that line is frequently the boundary between original ground and fill.
Fixing it means addressing what is underneath rather than just replacing the slab. That is compaction, sometimes additional excavation and proper base, sometimes reinforcement sized for the condition. Replacing the concrete without dealing with the base gets you the same crack in the same place.
Commercial Work Along the Airport Corridor
Moon carries commercial and light industrial property that most of the townships we serve do not, and that work is a real part of what we do here.
Commercial and industrial concrete in this corridor means service and loading areas built for truck traffic, equipment and machinery pads, ADA compliant walkways and ramps, entry aprons, and section replacement on slabs that have failed under loading heavier than they were designed for.
The recurring theme on commercial jobs here is that the original slab was specified for the business that was in the building three tenants ago. Loading changes, the slab does not. When we price commercial replacement we ask what actually happens on that concrete now, including the worst case rather than the average day.
We phase the work so the property keeps operating. Tell us your delivery windows and the days you cannot lose access, and that shapes the plan.
Outdoor Living on Moon Properties
On the residential side, the most common project we get called for in Moon is expanding what is already in the back yard.
Many of these homes were built with a deck and nothing else, which leaves usable space underneath it doing nothing. An under deck patio is one of the better value projects available in this area, since the footprint exists and the deck provides partial cover. The detail that matters is getting water coming through the deck boards to drain away from the foundation instead of against it.
Walkout basements are common in the newer sections too, and a walkout patio needs the slab set below the door threshold with positive slope away, or you have built a basin pointed at the house.

"Dave did a. Amazing back yard patio for us. The job site was maintained perfectly and all the employees kept the site clean each day before going home: Dave kept us involved in all the stages. Dave gave us creative control as we begun to waiver on our original color and placement and in the end we got exactly what we wanted. I would not only recommend ultimate concrete service, I would use them for anything we will ever need again. Thank you Dave for being so professional!"

Frequently Asked Questions
That line is often the boundary between original ground and developer fill. Fill settles differently than undisturbed soil. Replacing the slab without correcting the base underneath gets you the same crack in the same place.
Yes. Service and loading areas, equipment pads, ADA walkways and ramps, entry aprons, and section replacement on slabs failing under current loading. We phase the work so the property keeps operating.
Yes, and it is one of the better value projects in Moon because the footprint already exists and the deck gives partial cover. The key detail is draining water that comes through the deck boards away from the foundation.
What actually happens on that slab now, at worst case rather than average. A lot of commercial concrete here was specified for a tenant who left years ago, and the loading changed while the slab did not.
About fifteen miles from our shop in Beaver, well inside our regular working range.
