Concrete Solutions for Bartow Properties
Bartow—the "City of Oaks and Azaleas"—is one of Florida's oldest cities,
founded in 1851 as Fort Blount. As Polk County's seat, it features three districts on the
National Register of Historic Places: the Downtown Commercial District,
Northeast Bartow Historic Residential District (27 buildings from 1886-1925), and the South
Bartow Historic District. These older properties often have original driveways showing decades
of wear that we specialize in replacing.
The Old Polk County Courthouse (built 1908-1909) now houses the Polk County
History Center. Nearby landmarks include the L.B. Brown House—designed in
1892 by a self-taught master carpenter who was born into slavery—and the Wonder
House, a 4-story reinforced concrete home built in the 1920s that's been open for
public tours since 1934. The Bartow Air Base Museum preserves WWII history
from the former Army Air Field.
Lake Hancock on the north side covers nearly 5,000 acres and offers bass
fishing from the public boat ramp, plus the Panther Point Trail for hiking
and biking. Community events like the Bloomin' Arts Festival each March and
the popular Chalk Walk bring residents together year-round.
We also serve Highland City, Homeland, Fort Meade,
and surrounding areas. Bartow sits in the Bone Valley region on sandy, phosphatic soil—proper
base preparation is essential for long-lasting concrete, and our crews understand exactly
what local conditions require.
