Concrete work in Farmington
We’re a concrete contractor in Farmington, MS, about 54 miles north of our North Mississippi team in the northeast corner of Alcorn County. Our crew does all the concrete work on one scope: driveways, shop and barn slabs, garage coatings, and ground and polished interiors. Get your 2-minute ballpark now.
The practical reason to use one crew instead of two separate contractors: driveways and shop floors poured to a coating or polish spec get the right subgrade prep, the right mix, and control joints placed to the finish plan from day one. Farmington property owners who hire a pourer and a coater separately often pay for prep a second time. Request your project quote.
What ground does a Farmington slab sit on?
Alcorn County’s surface here is low creek terraces and ridge lines. Our crews pour on Tennessee River terrace deposits and Seven Mile Creek bottomland soils, and both get a compacted base before a 4,000 PSI pour. Creek-bottom ground runs soft and moisture-laden where it crosses low spots; ridge-top terrace soils compact more predictably but still carry the Coastal Plain chert gravel that defines the county’s subgrade character.
What stone and aggregate do Farmington slabs use?
Ready-mix in this corner of Mississippi draws on Coastal Plain quartz sand and chert gravel reworked into the high Tennessee River terraces. No hard-rock limestone quarry operates locally; crushed stone for spec work comes from north Alabama or travels the rail corridor. The closest active crushed-stone source in our data is APAC-Mississippi - Corinth (Active, crushed stone and asphalt), in Alcorn County. Ready-mix plants serving the area include B & B Concrete Co - Corinth Plant and B & B Concrete Co - Booneville Plant in neighboring Prentiss County.
That chert aggregate grinds out to a light gray-to-warm-beige cream flecked with tan and rust tones, which polishes well for barndominium interiors and shop floors. One caution: the local chert can be alkali-silica reactive, so confirming washed, low-porosity stock and a fly-ash partial cement replacement is worthwhile on any slab slated for a clear polish.
Moisture test before any coating on creek-bottom ground
Seven Mile Creek alluvium and low-terrace soils hold moisture longer than the ridge-top ground. On any existing slab set on low ground, or on a new pour that has not fully cured through a wet season, we run an on-site moisture test before committing to a coating system. That step costs nothing and prevents a delamination callback.
Concrete services our North Mississippi team brings to Farmington
New concrete pours
Driveways and approaches. Alcorn County’s chert-gravel terrace soils compact well on high ground but need careful subgrade verification near creek drainages. We compact the base, pour at 4,000 PSI minimum, add fiber mesh reinforcement, and place control joints at intervals matched to the slab thickness. Driveway details
Shop and barn slabs. Working shops and detached barns are the most common Farmington request outside of driveways. Heavier loads and future coating plans mean thickened edges at overhead-door openings, a moisture vapor barrier under any slab built for a later coating or polish, and reinforcement sized to the anticipated load.

Patios and flatwork. Patio and sidewalk pours draw on the same prep standard as a driveway pour; the finish menu is what shifts. Patio details
Concrete finishing
Garage floor coatings. We diamond-grind the surface, then install the coating system. Most residential garages go with a chip-broadcast finish; shop spaces fit a chemical-resistant polyaspartic better. Garage floor coatings
Polished concrete. Barndominium interiors and shop showrooms benefit from ground-in gloss rather than a topcoat. The finish is in the slab, not on it, so it does not peel. Polished concrete details
How much does concrete flooring cost in Farmington, Mississippi?
Farmington concrete runs $5.32 to $15.61 per square foot for a residential pour and finish, with commercial or heavily reinforced slabs ranging higher depending on thickness and load spec. Three inputs drive the final number: square footage, the slab’s current condition if you are coating or polishing an existing floor, and the coating or polish system on the order. The online quote tool turns those inputs into a line-item ballpark you can share with your lender or GC.
