No Job is Too Big or Too Small for Foothills Paving & Maintenance, Inc.

Our
Process

Prep
All subgrade excavation, compaction, formwork, placement of mesh or rebar is done prior to the arrival of the concrete mix. After preparing the subgrade, forms are placed around the area where the concrete is to be poured.

Pour
Concrete is poured either directly in place using the chute attached to the truck or with wheelbarrows, buggies or pumps if the location is out of reach of the concrete truck’s chute. Foothills Paving and Maintenance uses only 4,500 PSI Concrete with fibermesh. This is the highest quality concrete available.

Screeding
Concrete is then consolidated, compacting fresh concrete to mold it within the forms and around embedded items. After concrete is consolidated, it is leveled by drawing a lumber or metal straightedge (called a ‘screed’) across the surface, to fill in any low spots or voids as well as to reduce any high spots, bringing the top surface to proper grade. A straight edge is advanced across the concrete with a sawing movement

Float
Bullfloating eliminates high and low spots and embeds large aggregate particles immediately after strikeoff. This looks like a long-handled straight edge pulled across the concrete. It also levels and prepares the surface for further finishing. Concrete only needs to be troweled when necessary for its end use. For instance, sidewalks, patios, driveways and general exterior applications do not require a trowel application. Air-entrained concrete should not be troweled.

Edge
Edge concrete when required. Use the edging tool to obtain durable rounded edges.

Joint
Jointing is necessary to control unsightly random cracks, as cracks will follow the joints, as they are the weakest part of the concrete structure. Contraction joints are made with a hand groover or by inserting strips of plastic, wood, metal or preformed joint material into the unhardened concrete. Sawcut joints are made after the concrete has hardened.

Texture
A broom finish of the concrete gives the surface texture that prevents a slick surface. This is done using a coarse or fine push-broom. This is done when the concrete has thoroughly hardened, enough to retain the scoring impression.

Cure
After concrete is placed, a necessary moisture content and temperature (between 50 and 75 degrees F) must be maintained, a process called curing. This is vital to the quality of the concrete. A defective curing process effects durability, strength, watertightness, abrasion resistance, volume stability and resistance
After concrete is placed, a necessary moisture content and temperature (between 50 and 75 degrees F) must be maintained, a process called curing. This is vital to the quality of the concrete. A defective curing process effects durability, strength, watertightness, abrasion resistance, volume stability and resistance to freezing and thawing deicer salts. Curing aids in the chemical reaction called hydration. Loss of water by evaporation will delay or prevent hydration. If evaporation is prevented or reduced, good curing is likely within the first few days after the concrete is placed.

So impressed with this company and the simple courteous gesture of a door knock to let us know our street was closed for the next 4 hours. Wow, wow is all I can say. I beyond appreciated this and it left an amazing impression on myself and my neighborhood as it was done for each and every resident. I wish this company an endless road of success! Truly amazing!!

Foothills Paving has proven to be a very good and honest company to use for our parking lot needs. Renick is genuinely nice and very easy to work with. I recommend working with Renick and Foothills Paving for your paving needs.

Our mountain driveway was in terrible shape last summer after years of inattention. We got bids from several paving companies. Several stated that they would not do the work because our driveway was too steep. Jacob came out several times to discuss the job and give us alternatives. The work was done earlier than promised, completed more quickly than promised, and is a superior job. Neighbors have been asking us who did the work. They went out of their way to keep disruption to a minimum, did a wonderful job at cleanup, and the crew was friendly and helpful. We could not be happier, and highly recommend them.

We are neighborhood of 15 homes with a mile long road that is maintained by our HOA. Foothills performed a crack fill and seal coat of our road during the summer of 2018. They did a great job. They came out to our neighborhood and measured the road and discussed all options with us. They did the job when they said they would for the price they quoted even though they applied almost double the material in the crack fill operation showing a strong ethical concern for delivering the quality of service promised for the price quoted to their customer.

We have had nothing but excellent work from this company. Andy came out immediately to get us an estimate. The estimate was reasonable, the work started in a timely manner and the work was very professional. The asphalt patch work was just what we needed and I think the workers left the parking lot cleaner than when they got here. Cannot recommend this company highly enough! You don’t even need to call around – I did all that and these guys are the best.
