Small business sites need concrete that handles foot traffic, carts and vehicles without breaking apart. At Ready Reading Concrete, we pour commercial concrete flatwork and small parking areas for storefronts and service yards around Reading, PA.
We focus on base prep, thickness and slope so your concrete does its job with as little trouble as possible.
Storefront Sidewalks and Customer Walkways
Storefront sidewalks and customer walkways guide people to your door. They also set the tone for how clean and safe your entry feels. We look at door locations, parking stalls and curb lines, then lay out concrete walks that give clear routes and proper slope.
When we replace bad sidewalk panels or full runs, we remove broken slabs and weak base, build up compacted stone and pour new concrete that lines up with doors and thresholds. We use a finish that gives grip, set joints in a clean pattern and pitch the surface so water moves away from the building and main entry.
Dumpster Pads, Loading Pads and Service Areas
Service areas see rough use. Dumpsters roll, trucks back in and heavy carts move across the surface. These pads need more support than a basic walkway. We clear loose soil, build a firm base and pour concrete pads to a thickness that matches the loads in that area.
Typical pad locations include:
Dumpster pads at the rear of buildings
Loading and delivery pads near doors and docks
Service yard pads for carts, bins and light equipment
We keep edges tight, set joints where they make sense and plan slope so water does not sit at doorways or along walls.
Small Concrete Parking Lanes and Drive Areas
Some lots and service drives use concrete in high wear lanes or at tight turn spots. We pour small parking strips, drive lanes and concrete sections where you need more strength than asphalt gives. We set thickness and reinforcement based on the type of traffic and the soil under the slab.
We also think about drainage. Parking areas need pitch so water does not stand in front of stalls or along walk routes. We set forms and grades to move water toward drains or runoffs that fit your site.
Working Around Your Business Hours
Concrete work at a business runs best when it respects your schedule. We talk through hours, customer flow and delivery times before we set a date. We can block off smaller areas in stages so your whole site does not shut down at once. We mark off wet concrete, set up safe paths where possible and let you know when surfaces can take foot traffic and when they can take vehicle traffic.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can you work outside regular business hours?
In many cases we can adjust start times and pour times to fit your schedule. We look at noise rules, access and truck routes, then set a plan that keeps your main operations moving as much as the work allows.
How long will customers or trucks be blocked from an area?
Foot traffic can usually return sooner than vehicle traffic. The exact timing depends on the slab and the loads. When we price the job, we explain how long each area should stay closed so the concrete reaches enough strength.
What slab thickness do I need for light truck traffic?
Thickness and reinforcement depend on soil, loads and how often trucks use the area. We look at your site, ask what uses each lane or pad and then size the concrete to match. We list planned thickness in the estimate so you know what you are getting.
Can you replace only the worst sections of my concrete lot or walks?
Yes, if the rest of the slab is sound. We cut and remove bad sections and tie new concrete into good areas. If most of the concrete is cracked, settled or worn out, we will explain why a larger replacement may be the better choice.
