Concrete in winter
We pour concrete in winter more often than most studios would risk. It demands a completely different process.
Introduction
Most contractors avoid winter pours entirely. We’ve learned to work with the season instead.
The Process
Heated enclosures, adjusted mix ratios, and a much slower schedule let us pour safely even in freezing weather, at the cost of nearly double the normal cure-monitoring.
Why We Bother
Some clients can’t wait for spring. We’d rather do it right in December than rush it in April.
