Concrete Contractors in Harmony, FL

Harmony is a master-planned community near St. Cloud in Osceola County, and homeowners hiring concrete contractors in Harmony are working within a place designed with conservation in mind. Development plans were in place by 1996, the Harmony Community Development District was established in March 2000, and Wikipedia lists the community as established in 2003. It is certified by the Florida Green Building Coalition, and since 2001 it has worked with the University of Florida's Department of Wildlife Ecology and Conservation. We pour patios, walks, driveways and slabs here with that setting in mind.

Rules from the start

The Harmony Residential Owners Association was created on October 8, 2002, and its founding documents include guidelines for how people and wild animals share the community. Most exterior changes, including new patios, driveway changes and decorative finishes, go through the association before work begins. We are glad to work from those guidelines. Send them ahead or bring them to the estimate, and we will give you a drawing and material details for your application.

Planning a slab in a natural setting

In a community that values its open land and wildlife, how concrete is placed matters as much as how it is finished. We keep the work footprint tight, protect nearby plantings and trees, and plan truck access to avoid tearing up common areas. We also watch where water goes. A patio or driveway that sheds water across a neighbor's yard or into a natural area causes problems that last much longer than the job.

Green building is not only about materials. Sizing a slab right, grading it so stormwater soaks into the yard where it can, and building it to last rather than to be replaced in ten years all reduce waste over the life of the home.

Weather in eastern Osceola

Harmony shares the humid subtropical climate of nearby St. Cloud, with hot, wet summers and mild winters. Summer storms come quickly, so we schedule pours early in the day and protect fresh concrete when rain threatens. In the heat, we keep new slabs moist during curing so the surface does not dry too fast and craze.

Young homes, growing needs

Because Harmony is newer, most of our work here is adding to what the builder poured rather than tearing out failed concrete. Owners often want a bigger back patio, a slab for a screen room or pergola, a wider driveway or a side walk to a gate. We tie new concrete to old with dowels where needed so the two sections move together, and match the existing finish as closely as possible.
