Benefits of Poured Concrete Foundation Walls Constructed by Custom Concrete of Alabama
Poured concrete walls provide builders and owners with stronger, drier, better concrete basements/foundations. They offer performance that traditional block walls simply can’t match, at a very competitive price.
Strength:
Poured concrete walls have a compressive and flexural strength many times greater than that of block and far beyond the required safety factor.
Fire Resistance:
Solid concrete wall construction affords at least twice as much protection against fire as hollow core concrete block walls.
Water Resistance:
The increased strength, density, and joint-free construction of poured concrete walls dramatically reduce basement water problems. A water-tight concrete basement means less call backs for the builder or developer… less warranty problems.
Maintenance Ease:
Poured concrete wall construction is virtually maintenance free.
Design Flexibility:
Poured wall techniques are adaptable to all home designs and offer the choice of ashlar stone pattern or smooth wall finishes.
