Concrete is a superior building material for a variety of reasons. It is durable, weather-resistant, and requires minimal maintenance compared to other materials. With the right concrete contractor, your ramp can last for decades with little to no repairs needed.
Concrete ramps aren't just for businesses - they can be installed in various places such as:
Accessibility is a necessity, not a luxury. Our
concrete ramps are designed and constructed to meet the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. We ensure that our ramps are safe, durable, and provide easy accessibility for everyone.
At Glendale Concrete Professionals, we fully understand the importance of adhering to ADA guidelines for our concrete ramps. These rules are not only regulations – they are essential for creating accessible, safe, and usable ramps for individuals with disabilities. Here's a breakdown of the key guidelines we follow:
Slope:
The ADA requires that ramps must have a slope ratio of 1:12. This means that for every inch of height, the ramp must have 12 inches of length. This makes ramps easier and safer to navigate.
Width:
The clear width of a ramp run must be a minimum of 36 inches. This width allows for safe and comfortable passage for all users.
Landings:
Ramps must have landings at the bottom and top, and the landing size must be at least as wide as the ramp run and a minimum of 60 inches in length. This provides a rest area for users and makes turning easier.
Handrails:
If a ramp run has a rise greater than six inches or a length greater than six feet, it must have handrails on both sides. These handrails offer extra support and security for users.
Surface:
The surface of ramps must be stable, firm, and slip-resistant. This is crucial for safety, particularly in wet conditions.
Edge Protection:
Ramps and landings with drop-offs must have edge protection to prevent users from slipping off the edge.
By diligently following these guidelines, we ensure all our ramps meet the necessary slope, width, handrail, surface, and edge protection requirements set out by the ADA.

The time it takes to install a concrete patio can vary depending on several factors, including the size and complexity of the patio design, the preparation needed for the site, and weather conditions. On average, the process can take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks. However, remember that the concrete will need additional time to cure fully, which can take up to a month.
A concrete patio can last for several decades with proper installation and regular maintenance. The exact lifespan can vary depending on factors such as the quality of the installation, the local climate, and how well the patio is maintained. To maximize the lifespan of your patio, it's important to clean it regularly and reseal it as needed.
The cost of a concrete patio can vary widely depending on the size of the patio, the type of concrete used, the complexity of the design, and any additional features or customizations. On average, you might expect to pay between $8 and $20 per square foot, but this is just a ballpark figure. We recommend contacting Glendale Concrete Professionals for a more accurate estimate for a consultation.
