Custom-Crete: Concrete Services

Shotcrete
Custom-Crete has been a leading supplier of wet-process shotcrete for more than 20 years. We use the most advanced shotcrete equipment available with the ability to place high-quality products across long distances. Our crews have 60+ years of combined experience, and our nozzle men are ACI Certified. The versatile equipment and experienced crews can address any job, regardless of size. Our projects include retaining walls, slope stabilization, swimming pools of all sizes, lazy rivers, large reflection ponds and structural walls. Our crews are based in Austin and Houston but will travel to wherever they are needed. We work continuously with industry-leading suppliers to create custom mix designs for any project.

Pumping
Custom-Crete offers concrete pumping to help our customers achieve the proper placement of the product based on their job site’s needs. Our line pump can place concrete in hard to reach areas that normal boom pumps have troubling reaching either physically or financially. The pumps excel in helping small crews reach tight spots up steep slopes or within a high rise building. We offer our own pumps in the Houston, Austin and San Antonio markets and can coordinate any size pump with our partners in the DFW Metroplex. Contact your local facility to find out more.

Color Matching
Over the years, Custom-Crete has been called on to match many different colors from old historical structures to new projects that need additional material. Our services are a blend of scientific materials knowledge and hands on artisanship. Custom-Crete’s staff can recommend different colors along with possible chemical and physical aging techniques to help you get the perfect look you are striving to achieve. For new colors Custom-Crete offers colors by Davis Colors and Schofield Colors. Our trucks are equipped with custom designed pigment feeders that are calibrated for each job to insure a quality job every time.

On-Site Production
As we’ve noted elsewhere on our website, Custom-Crete is often called on to produce concrete on jobs that no one else would like to take. Often times, this means creating custom mix designs for one particular job to meet a critical specification. This can mean special raw materials, particular chemical admixtures, environmental goals or performance characteristics. We have a new in house laboratory, located in Dallas, where mixes can be produced and tested to ACI, ASTM and the customer’s specification. We currently have a staff of quality control personnel along with research and development specialists that ensure the latest products are at the forefront of our efforts. For more information regarding unique mixes, contact us.
