Concrete Contractor in Huntsville, AL
Patios · Slabs · Pool Decks · Foundations · Repair & Replacement
Battle Concrete Construction has been the concrete contractor North Alabama calls since 1957. From our base in Meridianville we pour patios, slabs, walkways, pool decks, foundations and commercial flatwork across Huntsville, Madison and the surrounding Madison County area — six generations of the same family doing the same trade in the same place.
We have made it our mission to provide our clients with the highest quality of work and the most dedicated service available. In striving to ensure that every job is completed to your specifications, we put the same effort into a complex foundation as we would into a simple stairway. You can trust that our experienced team can execute projects of various sizes and complexities.
Concrete Services We Provide
"Concrete contractor" covers a lot of ground. Here is what that actually means when you hire us:
Patios and outdoor living slabs
A patio is the single most common reason people call us. We pour new patios and patio additions sized to how you will actually use the space — a table and chairs needs different dimensions than a grill station and a fire pit. Broom, smooth or decorative finish, cut and sealed so it does not go green in the shade.
Pool decks and backyard facilities
Pool decks have to drain away from both the house and the water, hold traction underfoot, and take furniture without settling. We pour full surrounds and coping-adjacent decking, and we grade the whole area first so the water goes where it should.
Walkways, sidewalks and steps
The connective work: paths from the drive to the door, sidewalks along the property, and poured steps that meet the grade properly instead of forcing an awkward last riser.
Foundations
New foundation pours and foundation repair for residential and commercial structures. This is the work where base preparation matters most, and it is the reason we do our ownexcavation and site work rather than subcontracting it.
Repair, resurfacing, leveling and replacement
Not every slab needs replacing. We repair and resurface concrete that is structurally sound but worn, seal surfaces that are starting to take on water, and level slabs that have settled. When concrete is genuinely past saving we handle removal, tear-out and full replacement — and we will tell you honestly which category yours falls into.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of concrete work does a concrete contractor in Huntsville handle?
For us: patios, slabs, walkways, sidewalks, steps, pool decks, foundations and commercial flatwork such as aprons, ramps and parking areas — plus repair, resurfacing, leveling, and full removal and replacement of existing concrete.
How thick should a concrete slab be?
It depends entirely on what will sit on it. A patio carrying furniture and people is a different slab from one carrying a truck or equipment. We size the thickness and the reinforcement to the actual load and the ground conditions at your site, and we explain what we are specifying and why.
What finish options do I have?
Broom finish is the most common for outdoor concrete in North Alabama because it holds traction when wet. Smooth finishes suit covered areas and garages. Decorative options such as coloured concrete and brick banding are also possible — we have done them locally.
Will my new concrete crack?
All concrete moves. The job of a contractor is to control where it cracks by cutting relief joints in the right places at the right time, and to prevent uncontrolled cracking by preparing a proper compacted base. That is the difference between a hairline you never notice and a slab that splits.
How soon can you start?
Scheduling depends on the season and the weather — concrete has real limits on when it can be poured well. Call (256) 783-8751 and we will tell you honestly where you would fall in the schedule.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We handle commercial and industrial concrete including slabs, ramps, parking areas, curbs and sidewalks alongside our residential work.
