Why Hiring a Handyman for Pouring and Finishing Concrete Pads is the Right Choice

Concrete pads may look simple—a flat, sturdy slab for a grill, shed, AC unit, or walkway—but getting them done right requires more than just mixing a few bags of concrete. From preparation to finishing, there’s a lot that goes into the job. That’s where Homesmith Handyman comes in.

Proper Site Preparation

Laying a concrete pad begins long before the first bag of mix is opened. The ground needs to be cleared, leveled, and compacted. At Homesmith Handyman, we take care of:

• Removing sod, roots, and debris that could weaken the slab

• Building and squaring forms so your pad has clean, sharp edges

• Adding gravel for drainage and stability

Skipping these steps can lead to cracking, shifting, or water pooling—but with our process, your pad is built to last.

Efficiency and Heavy Lifting Covered

A typical 3x3x1 pad requires more than half a ton of concrete to mix and pour. Instead of putting that strain on yourself, let us handle it. We bring the mixer, wheelbarrows, and manpower to get the job done efficiently.

The Right Tools for the Job

Concrete finishing isn’t guesswork—it’s a skill. We bring the floats, trowels, screeds, and edgers to create:

• A smooth, even surface

• Crisp edges and corners

• Proper slope for drainage

It’s the kind of professional finish that separates a handyman-built pad from a DIY attempt.

Adding Value to Your Asheville Home

Whether you’re setting a foundation for a shed in Haw Creek, creating a level spot for your grill in West Asheville, or building a firepit pad out in Fairview, a well-poured pad adds safety, usability, and value to your property.

Peace of Mind

Concrete sets quickly—once you start pouring, there’s no pause button. Having Homesmith Handyman on the job means fewer mistakes, faster work, and confidence that your project is done right the first time.
