Why Iowa Concrete Fails — and the 7 points that stop it
Most concrete in Iowa fails within 5 years because it’s quoted to warm-climate specs in a 42-inch frost-depth zone. We built the Iowa Concrete Durability Standard so any homeowner or developer can evaluate a concrete bid against the seven things that actually matter in freeze-thaw country.
Frost Line Compliance
Subgrade Preparation
Reinforcement Hierarchy
Freeze-Thaw Mix Spec
Joint Spacing Standard
Curing Protocol
Documentation Standard
Bid Comparison Scorecard

Where We Pour Across The Metro
We’re based in Des Moines and we pour across this metro every week.
Most of our crews live in the same suburbs they’re working in. We know the soil, the frost depth, the tree root problems on older lots, and the fill settlement issues on the new developments going up west of town.
Don’t see your town on the list? Give us a call. If it’s in Central Iowa, we probably pour there.

“If you need concrete work done, Colin Concrete is it. They did an awesome job taking out our old single car driveway and making it a double wide and ran it all the way to the back yard. Very professional, they know what they are doing and when the job is done, they clean up everything. Thank You Colin Concrete”
— L. Potter, driveway expansion
“We called and set up a time for an estimate. We chose our stamped concrete design and color. Received the estimate, set up a date, and everything was completed timely. We are so happy with the results!”
— L. Walters, stamped concrete patio
“Look no further!!! Jose and his team are professional, talented, and will exceed your expectations. They’ve done a huge driveway, sidewalk and two stamped concrete patios for us. They are kind, communication is excellent, fair in pricing and their work is beautiful. Hire them!”
— C. Parmerlee, repeat customer
“I had a great experience with this concrete company from start to finish. They came out quickly for an estimate and were able to schedule the work as soon as the very next day, which was incredibly convenient. Their pricing was very fair compared to others I looked into, and the quality of the work really speaks for itself—everything turned out absolutely beautiful. The whole process was smooth, professional, and efficient. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality concrete work. 10/10!”
— M. Ashley, full concrete project
