Custom Burton Concrete is your local concrete contractor in Grand Blanc, MI, handling stamped concrete patios, driveways, foundations, and decorative flatwork for homeowners across the city and township. We know Grand Blanc properties and respond to new requests within 1 business day.
Grand Blanc homeowners invest in their properties, and many are upgrading plain slabs to stamped or decorative finishes that complement the brick-front Colonials and ranch homes common in the area. A properly sealed stamped surface handles Michigan freeze-thaw cycles well and adds lasting curb appeal. See our full range of stamped concrete services to learn what is possible.
Most Grand Blanc homes were built between 1970 and 1995, and the driveways poured at the same time are now 30 to 50 years old. Mature tree roots near the driveway edge and repeated freeze-thaw cycles are the two most common reasons we get called to replace them in this area.
Ranch homes and Colonials in Grand Blanc typically have a back yard with real room for an outdoor living space. A properly poured patio, graded away from the foundation, adds usable square footage without the maintenance demands of wood decking in Michigan's wet seasons.
Nearly all homes in Grand Blanc have full poured-concrete or block basements. Clay-heavy Genesee County soil holds water against those walls, and original waterproofing systems from the 1970s and 1980s are often no longer effective. Foundation inspection and repair is one of the most common calls we get in this area.
Walkways in Grand Blanc neighborhoods suffer the same freeze-thaw damage as driveways, with the added problem of tree roots pushing sections up over time. We replace individual heaved panels or pour complete new sidewalk runs to current code.
Attached two-car garages are the norm in Grand Blanc subdivisions, and older garage floors often show cracking, soft spots, or surface spalling after years of vehicle weight and road salt tracked in from the driveway. We pour replacement slabs built for Michigan conditions.
Grand Blanc sits in Genesee County where the frost line reaches roughly 42 inches deep every winter. That is not a statistic most homeowners think about until their driveway or patio starts cracking, but it shapes every decision a contractor makes about base preparation, slab thickness, and concrete mix design. Temperature swings across the freezing mark repeat dozens of times between November and March, forcing water into small cracks and expanding them from the inside. A contractor who accounts for this in the mix and the cure process produces a slab that will last decades. One who does not will be back in three to five years.
The housing stock in Grand Blanc adds its own demands. Most homes here were built between 1970 and 1995, placing them firmly in the age range where original driveways, walkways, and patios are due for replacement. The mature trees planted alongside those homes 30 to 50 years ago now have root systems large enough to get under concrete slabs and push them up - one of the most common calls we receive in this area. Add clay-heavy glacial soil that holds moisture against foundations and flatwork, and Grand Blanc homeowners face a combination of pressures that requires a contractor who knows this specific market. According to research by Michigan State University Extension, clay soils in mid-Michigan retain significantly more moisture than sandy soils, which directly contributes to foundation pressure and freeze-related slab movement.
Our crew works throughout Grand Blanc regularly, and we understand the local conditions that affect concrete work here. We pull permits through both the Grand Blanc Township Building Department and the City of Grand Blanc building office, depending on where your address falls, which is a detail that trips up out-of-area contractors who do not know the jurisdiction boundary.
Grand Blanc Township covers a wide stretch of Genesee County south of Flint, with neighborhoods ranging from tight subdivisions near the city center to larger-lot properties further out. The corridor along US-23 and the neighborhoods near Warwick Hills Golf and Country Club - known to most locals as the former home of the PGA Tour's Buick Open - give the area a distinct character that sets it apart from surrounding communities. Families here chose Grand Blanc in large part for Grand Blanc Community Schools, and they plan to stay, which is why we see more planned renovation and upgrade work here than emergency repair calls.
We also serve neighboring communities close to Grand Blanc. If you are in Davison to the east or Swartz Creek to the west, we cover those areas as well.

(810) 204-9905Grand Blanc is a city and township in Genesee County, located just south of Flint along the US-23 corridor. The city itself has a population of around 8,000, but the broader township area is home to roughly 37,000 people. Grand Blanc grew as a suburban community through the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, when families sought newer homes and quieter streets south of Flint. The result is a housing stock that is largely ranch homes and brick-front Colonials from that era, set on mid-size lots with mature trees throughout the subdivisions. Owner-occupancy rates are high, and residents tend to invest in their properties over the long term. Learn more about Grand Blanc at the City of Grand Blanc website.
The community is anchored by Grand Blanc Road through the downtown corridor, Warwick Hills Golf and Country Club, and Grand Blanc Community Schools - one of the most regarded districts in Genesee County and the reason many families specifically chose to put down roots here. Grand Blanc Township spreads across a large area with distinct pockets: tight subdivisions close to the city center, larger properties near the township's southern edges, and everything in between. Neighboring communities include Burton to the north and Davison to the east.
