Can you turn a cast-in-place design to a precast design?
Definitely, this is the bulk of what we do. We can customize your structure to meet your job’s needs. Whether it’s a sump, trench, or custom manhole. We can use our engineering capabilities to redesign a simplified approach to construction. Our engineering team provides a turnkey service of grabbing the layout plans and re-producing details that will be a precast version of the original design. Our team will work with the owner’s engineering team to help with this transition.

How does payment work?
We are currently only accepting checks and ACH payments. We require Will Call orders to be paid with a check or ACH payment unless they have an account open with us. Customers on COD terms are required to pay before shipment or release of the product. New customers that would like to open an account with us will have to fill out a credit application. Once we review their trade references and, in some cases, pull their DNB, a set credit limit will be given to the customer at NET 30 terms.
