Concrete Slabs & Foundations in Killeen, TX

Slabs Built for Their Load — and for Bell County Soil

"It's just a slab" is how bad slabs get poured. The right slab depends entirely on what it carries: a garden shed, a car lift, a welding shop, or a metal building each demand different thickness, reinforcement, and footing details. And in the Killeen area, every one of them sits on expansive clay that moves with the seasons — so sub-base preparation and moisture management decide whether a slab stays flat for decades or humps in the middle by year three.

Slab & Pad Projects We Quote

• Shed & storage building pads — sized to your building's footprint with a clean, level bearing surface.
• Garage & shop floors — thickened where vehicles, lifts, or machinery will sit; finished smooth for easy sweeping and sealing.
• Carport & RV pads — 5–6 inch pours with reinforcement for real vehicle weight, plus anchor points for the structure above.
• Metal building & pole-barn foundations — slab-with-footing designs matched to your building manufacturer's spec sheet.
• Walkways & sidewalks — connecting it all without mud in between.

What's In a Proper Slab Quote

Any slab bid worth signing spells out: excavation and grading; compacted base material and depth; slab thickness and concrete strength (PSI); reinforcement type and placement; footing dimensions where required; anchor bolts or hold-downs if a structure attaches; and the finish. If a bid is one line and a price, that's not a spec — that's a coin flip.

Typical Costs in the Killeen Area

Basic pads and slabs generally run $6–$10 per square foot; thickened, footed, or spec-engineered foundations run higher. A 12×16 shed pad often lands around $1,800–$3,200; a 24×30 shop slab with footings typically quotes in the $8,000–$16,000 range depending on spec.
