  • Air-entrained mixes (5-7%) built to survive 100-120 freeze-thaw cycles a winter
  • Proper subgrade preparation over Des Moines Lobe glacial till

Concrete Questions for Butler County Homeowners

Yes. JLB's own concrete crew works throughout Butler County and the surrounding Des Moines metro — driveways, patios, sidewalks, stamped and stained concrete, pool decks, retaining walls, and more.

Central Iowa runs roughly 100-120 freeze-thaw cycles a winter on the Des Moines Lobe. JLB uses 5-7% air-entrained mixes, places control joints correctly, compacts the subgrade, and sets structural footings below the 42-inch frost line so flatwork resists scaling, cracking, and heave.

In-house. The same JLB crew handles excavation, forming, reinforcement, the pour, and the finish — no subcontractor handoffs. On pool projects, that same crew sets the fiberglass shell and pours the surrounding deck under a single contract.
