Working in Auburn, ME
Auburn is where we're based, and it's a city people actually get outside in. Mount Apatite Park in western Auburn is wooded, groomed for cross country skiing and snowshoeing in winter, and open to hikers, runners and mountain bikers the rest of the year. Pettingill Park and the Union Street Greenway have playgrounds, playing fields, sledding hills and trails, some of them paved, and the Androscoggin Historical Society keeps the county's history, mostly Lewiston's and Auburn's, with talks and tours.
On a concrete job here, the permits run through the City of Auburn. Public Works takes applications for drive entrances, fill, excavation and storm water drainage connections, Permitting and Code Enforcement takes building permits, and those departments are the ones to ask which permits a project needs, as the city's permits page explains. They're the offices we check with before we book a job, whether it's a driveway on a side street or a footing for a new garage.
Concrete services in Auburn, ME
Sterling Auburn Concrete is a concrete contractor in Auburn, and our 16 services run from a clean saw cut to a full foundation. Most calls come down to the same three things, which are a slab that's cracked or sinking, water pooling where it shouldn't, and a project that needs to be built right the first time. Price comes down to size and thickness, how much digging and base work the ground needs, whether old concrete has to come out first, and the finish you pick. The schedule turns on weather, any permit, and curing, the wait while the concrete gains strength before you walk or drive on it. The free on-site estimate puts your own figure in writing and spells out what's in it and what isn't.
Concrete driveway building
We build concrete driveways on a base we dig out and pack, then cut control joints, grooves that tell cracks where to go instead of leaving it to chance.
Concrete patio construction
Want a place for the grill and a few chairs? We pour backyard concrete patios sloped away from the house, so rain runs off instead of pooling against the foundation.
Stamped concrete services
Stamped concrete is pressed with a pattern and colored to look like stone, brick or slate, for homeowners who want a patio, walk or pool deck with more character than plain gray.
Concrete sidewalk building
We build concrete sidewalks and front walks for homes and properties, with a broom finish, a light texture dragged across the top so shoes grip when it's wet.
Garage floor concrete
Cracked, sunken or chipping garage floor? We tear out the old slab, fix what's underneath and pour a new one built for your car and the salt it drips all winter.
Decorative concrete
Decorative concrete covers color, exposed stone, scored patterns and other finishes that make a slab part of the design, for homeowners and businesses who care how it looks.
Concrete retaining walls
When a slope in your yard keeps sliding or washing out, a poured concrete retaining wall holds the soil back and gives you level ground you can actually use.
Concrete floor installation
We pour interior concrete floors for basements, shops, barns and commercial spaces, set on a packed subgrade, the ground the slab sits on, and finished flat for daily use.
Concrete pool decks
A pool deck has to handle bare feet and constant splashing, so we build concrete decks with a textured finish and a slope that carries water away from the pool.
Concrete steps construction
We form and pour concrete steps for front doors, back doors and porches, with even risers so every step feels the same, whether you're replacing crumbling ones or adding new.
Slab foundation building
What's a slab foundation? It's one thick concrete pad the building sits right on, with no basement or crawlspace, and we pour them for homes, additions, garages and outbuildings.
Foundation installation
We dig, form and pour full foundations for new homes and additions, with rebar, the steel bars inside that hold the concrete together when the ground moves.
Concrete parking lot building
For businesses and property owners, we build concrete parking lots graded to drain, on a base made for daily traffic and the delivery trucks that come with it.
Concrete footings
Footings are the wide concrete pads under a foundation, deck post, porch or wall that spread the weight into the ground, and we pour them for builders and homeowners.
Foundation raising
Is a corner of your house or slab sinking? Foundation raising lifts it back toward level and supports it, once we've figured out why it dropped in the first place.
Concrete cutting
We saw-cut concrete cleanly for new doorways, window openings, utility trenches and old slabs coming out, for contractors and homeowners who need a straight edge, not a broken mess.
Why people hire us for concrete work
The person who quotes it runs the pour
I look at your job and I lead the crew that pours it. So the guy who gave you the estimate is the same one answering for the work, and you're not explaining your project twice.
Time spent on the base, not just the top
The base is the first thing people want to cut, because nobody sees it on day one. I'd rather trim the finish, since a nice top on raked dirt settles and cracks right along with it.
One contractor from the footings up
We handle everything from a clean saw cut to a full foundation. That means one crew can carry your project start to finish instead of handing it off between trades.
A straight answer, even if it's wait
If a job should wait for better weather or be done another way, I'll tell you that plainly. Concrete is stubborn enough without starting it on the wrong foot.

How a concrete job goes with us
Call or send the form
You call (207) 707-4423 or fill out the form, and we reply within one business day. Tell us what you're dealing with, whether it's a sinking slab, a new driveway or a footing for an addition, and I'll set a time to come out. There's no obligation at any point.
I look, measure and write it up
I come out, look at the job, measure it and ask how you'll use it, because a slab for a pickup is different from one for a lawn chair. You get a free written estimate that spells out what's in the price and what isn't, so there are no surprises later.
We prep the base and pour
Once you're ready, we check what the local permit office needs and handle the application when a permit is called for. We set a pour date that suits the job, then get the base dug out, packed and checked for drainage before any concrete truck shows up.
Finish, cure and walk it with you
We finish the surface, cut joints where they belong and cure it properly so the top doesn't turn weak and dusty down the road. Before we pack up, we walk the finished job with you, so you see exactly what you're getting and can ask anything.
