A Concrete Contractor That Brings Everything to Your Site
Finding a crew in Union County who actually owns their equipment, shows up on time, and handles everything from material to labor — that narrows the list fast. Most companies here either subcontract the labor or call a batch plant for delivery and hope the timing lines up.
ARG runs differently. We own our mixer trucks. When our crew pulls onto your property, the concrete is already loaded, mixed, and ready. No third-party delivery. No waiting. One crew handles the full job from sub-base to final finish — and one invoice covers it all.
Christian Ramos Guerrero started ARG in January 2025 after growing up in the industry. His family has been pouring concrete for decades — his uncle still runs an operation in the region. Christian answers his own phone, visits every site in person, and stays involved through the final walkthrough. Need to reach him at 9 PM? Text or call. He responds after hours, every time.

Concrete Services We Offer
Whether it’s a new drive, an outdoor entertaining space, a structural foundation, or decorative finishing — our crew handles residential and commercial concrete services across Monroe NC and the surrounding Union County area.
We don’t subcontract. Every job is completed by our own team with our own equipment. Here’s what we offer.
Your drive is the most visible surface on your property and the one that takes the most daily abuse. Vehicle weight, temperature swings, and the clay-heavy soil throughout Union County all put stress on a pour that wasn’t prepped correctly.
We handle both new concrete installation and full tear-and-replace jobs. Every project starts with grading, proper sub-base compaction, and gravel depth calibrated to your lot conditions — the prep steps that separate a surface that lasts fifteen years from one that cracks in three.
Already have a surface that’s showing wear but isn’t ready for full replacement? We also handle driveway repair — crack filling, leveling settled sections, and resurfacing to extend the life of what you have.
Outdoor living is where concrete really earns its value. A well-built concrete patio turns your backyard into usable space — for cookouts, furniture, a future fire pit, or a full outdoor kitchen setup.
We pour outdoor spaces at every scale. A 10×12 pad for a grill area. A 400-square-foot entertaining space with a stamped finish. A pool deck that slopes properly for drainage and stays safe when wet. Whatever you need, we match the pour to your property layout and finish preferences.
Finish options include broom texture for grip, smooth trowel for a clean look, and patterned stamps that mimic stone or brick at a fraction of the price.
Front walkways, side-yard access paths, commercial entryways, and ADA-compliant surfaces. We pour new sections, replace cracked or uneven stretches, and match existing sidewalk surfaces when extending a path. Clean edges, proper joints, and a finish that holds up to foot traffic and weather.
Stamped and stained finishes give standard concrete a completely different look. If you want the appearance of natural stone, slate, or brick without paying for individual pavers — a stamped or stained finish is the answer.
Options include ashlar slate patterns, herringbone brick, flagstone textures, exposed aggregate, and color staining. These finishes work on drives, walkways, pool decks, and outdoor living areas. We specialize in matching the finish to your home’s style so it looks intentional, not tacked on.
Retaining walls are structural — they hold back earth, redirect water runoff, and protect foundations from soil pressure. In Union County, walls over four feet typically require a building permit and engineering review.
We pour structural walls, footings, stem walls, and full foundation concrete for new construction and room additions. This isn’t landscaping — it’s load-bearing work that needs to be done right the first time.
Garage Floors, Shed Pads, and Flat Surfaces
Detached garage floors, workshop pads, shed foundations, and equipment bases. These pours are straightforward but still require proper grading and compaction. We pour flat, level surfaces built to handle heavy loads — tractors, trailers, or storage weight.
ARG supplies concrete to other contractors and crews across the region. If you’re a general builder working in Union County and need a reliable pour partner, we deliver mixed and ready on your schedule with competitive per-yard pricing. Reach out directly for volume pricing.
What to Expect: How We Handle Your Project
Concrete work involves more variables than most homeowners realize. Soil type, lot grade, drainage patterns, access to the pour site, existing utilities, and permit requirements all affect how a job needs to be planned. Here’s how we approach every project to make sure nothing gets missed.
1. Initial Call
Christian answers directly — no dispatcher, no call center. He’ll ask about your project scope, timeline, and any known site challenges. If you’ve already gotten pricing from other companies, he’s happy to review them and explain differences.
2. On-Site Assessment
Every assessment starts with an in-person visit. Christian walks the lot, checks grade and soil conditions, measures the area, and identifies anything that could affect the pour — drainage issues, tree roots, underground utilities, or access limitations.
3. Access Planning
Some properties in Union County have longer setbacks, gated access, or limited road frontage. Because we own our mixer trucks, we control our equipment and can adjust delivery logistics without depending on a third-party plant’s schedule or truck size. This is a real advantage on rural lots and properties with tight access.
4. Written Scope and Pricing
We pull together a written scope and price that covers everything — supply, labor, formwork, finishing, joint cutting, and cleanup. The number you see is the number you pay. No surprise add-ons for delivery or pumping.
5. Execution and Walkthrough
Our crew shows up with the mixer truck, all tools, and supplies. The crew handles prep, pour, finishing, and cleanup. We cut control joints the same day and walk you through the final result before leaving.
Why ARG Concrete Stands Out in Union County
Most companies in Union County don’t own their concrete supply. They call a batch plant, schedule a delivery window, and hope the truck shows up on time. If it’s late, your job sits. If the mix isn’t right, you deal with it after the slab is poured.
ARG owns its mixer trucks. That gives us three advantages you won’t find with most local companies:
We control the mix.
We load and prepare on-site, so the material is fresh when it hits the forms — not sitting in a drum for an hour during transit.
We control the schedule.
No batch plant dispatcher decides when your material shows up. Our truck arrives with our crew, ready to pour.
We cut out the middleman.
No delivery fee on your invoice. No third-party markup. That keeps our pricing competitive while maintaining results you can trust.
Christian built ARG as an owner-operated company. He doesn’t sit in an office reviewing reports. He’s on your property, walking the lot, checking the pour, and available by text or phone after hours. That level of access is rare — and it’s the reason homeowners keep referring us.
Permits in Monroe and Union County
Building permits are handled through the City Permit Center for properties inside city limits, or through Union County Building Code Enforcement for unincorporated areas. Structural projects — foundation pours, walls over four feet, new construction footings — typically require engineering drawings and inspections.
Standard flatwork like driveways, patios, and walkways may or may not require a permit, depending on your lot and scope. Christian reviews permit requirements during your site visit so nothing delays the project.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a new driveway cost?
Standard gray runs five to fifteen dollars per square foot depending on size, thickness, and site prep. Stamped or stained finishes cost more. We provide free on-site pricing based on your actual property — not a calculator.
How long does a typical project take?
Most residential pours take one to two days from prep to finish. Larger or structural jobs may take longer. We give you a clear timeline before any work begins.
Do you handle the demo and removal of old surfaces?
Absolutely. We tear out the old surface, haul away the debris, and prep the base before pouring new concrete. Demo and removal are included in our scope when needed.
Can I get a proposal without committing?
Absolutely. Call or text (980) 418-0023, and Christian will visit your property to put together a detailed proposal. No obligation, no pressure — just an honest assessment of what the job needs.
