Concrete & Fencing Services in Metairie, Louisiana
Northshore work ethic for Jefferson Parish properties. Expert concrete and fencing from Bucktown to Veterans Boulevard.
Jefferson Parish
Metairie's Dependable Concrete & Fencing Contractor
Metairie is the heart of residential Jefferson Parish - a big suburb full of mid-century ranch homes, updated two-story houses, and busy commercial strips. Many of these properties are due for new concrete and fencing - and that is exactly the work we do best.
Driving in from our Slidell base, we bring the same Northshore work ethic and attention to detail to every Metairie project. We might be tearing out a failing driveway on Transcontinental Drive, pouring a new patio near Lafreniere Park, or running a privacy fence along a lot line. Either way, we treat every Metairie job like it's in our own neighborhood.

Why Venture Concrete
Why Metairie Residents Choose Us
Suburban Lot Expertise
Metairie lots bring their own challenges - narrow side yards, mature landscaping, and aging concrete and utility lines. Our crew works well in tight spaces and around what's already there, and still delivers clean, exact results.
Driveway Replacement Specialists
With decades-old homes, Metairie is a hotspot for driveway replacements. We tear out the old slab, re-grade the base, and pour fresh concrete with proper joints and reinforcement. The worn-out concrete becomes a driveway you'll be proud of.
Clear, Written Quotes
Every Metairie estimate comes as a written quote, so you know what the work includes and what it costs before anything starts.
Metairie Coverage
Metairie Neighborhoods We Serve
No two Metairie neighborhoods pour the same way. Lot size, truck access, and how wet the ground stays all change from one area to the next.
Old Metairie & Metairie Club Gardens
Established homes near Metairie Road and the lake, many built mid-century on narrow lots shaded by mature oaks. The original driveways and front walks here are often decades old and ready for replacement. Truck access can be tight, so some concrete has to be placed by wheelbarrow or buggy, and wood privacy fencing has to fit the older lot lines.
Bucktown & the Lakefront
Right up against the lake and the 17th Street Canal, which means a high water table and soft soil. Driveways, patios, and pool decks here get extra base and careful drainage slopes so water sheds away from the slab rather than ponding. Slabs on this ground call for reinforcement.
Country Club Gardens & Bonnabel Place
Classic 1950s to 1970s ranch subdivisions off Bonnabel and Veterans. Many of the original driveways have reached the end of their life. Several pockets have HOA-style covenants, so we put together the review package before the pour. Chain link and wood fencing are both common along these lot lines.
Transcontinental & West Esplanade
A dense residential grid of post-war homes, many of them ready for a driveway replacement, walkway repair, or a fence along the subdivision boundary. Lots are close together, so we plan the pour and the fence layout carefully around neighbors, utilities, and existing landscaping.
Elmwood & River Ridge
Along the river on the west end of the parish, with a mix of residential and light commercial property and generally larger lots. Truck access tends to be easier here, and the bigger lots have room for RV and boat pads and longer fence runs. We also pour commercial flatwork and sidewalks.
Harahan & Old Jefferson
Older established neighborhoods just east and west of Metairie proper. Settled mid-century driveways and walkways are common here, and so are wood and chain link fences. The soft soil and high water table call for the same careful base prep we use across Jefferson Parish.
Local Conditions
Pouring Concrete on Jefferson Parish Soil
Most of Jefferson Parish sits at or below sea level on soft, water-holding river-delta soil. Concrete that ignores that keeps cracking and settling. Concrete that accounts for it holds up far better, and that difference is almost entirely in the base preparation and the drainage, not the slab you see on top.
On a settled Metairie property, a surface patch rarely solves anything. We remove the failing slab and dig down to firm ground. We rebuild the base with extra packed gravel - plus a layer of fabric over very soft clay - then pour a reinforced new slab at the right height. We slope every slab to drain away from the house, space the control joints to handle seasonal movement, and add rebar wherever the ground calls for it.
Drainage across the parish is pump-based, so getting the surface fall right matters as much as the slab itself. We design driveways, patios, and walks to move water toward the street or yard drains rather than letting it pool against the concrete or the home.
- Soft alluvial soil: Extra excavation, compacted gravel base, and reinforcement on every pour.
- High water table: Elevated slab and drainage slopes that work with the parish pump system.
- Settled older slabs: Full replacement at the correct elevation, not patches over a failing base.
- Aging mid-century driveways: 1950s to 1970s subdivisions across Metairie that are due for replacement.
- HOA subdivisions: Review packages prepared when a subdivision such as Country Club Gardens or Bonnabel Place requires one.
- Hurricane-season scheduling: Pours planned around named-storm forecasts from June through November.
"When my job started, I worked with Gerardo and his crew who all were AMAZING! They are all incredibly hard workers, giving attention to all of the details I hadn’t even considered. ... I didn’t think I would ever get excited about a concrete job- but my large driveway and sidewalks being paved, has added big curb appeal to my property."
Mari Hanson - Driveway & Sidewalks
"Venture Concrete did an excellent job replacing my front porch and sidewalk with concrete. All the details of the job were made very clear. Everything they said they were going to do they did. I am very happy with the results."
Catherine Dee - Front Porch & Sidewalk
"I couldn't be there to review the plan but they followed my instruction and then some adding some shape and design to the footprint. They cleaned the area well and left the concrete finish very neat and clean."
