About Brookline Concrete Services
Building Stronger Foundations, One Project at a Time
Locally owned & operated; serving Brookline, MA, and the surrounding areas. Brookline Concrete Services has been providing quality concrete since 2008, building a reputation one driveway at a time, one patio at a time, one foundation at a time.
Not the largest concrete company in Massachusetts. Not looking to be. A group of skilled concrete professionals, showing up on time, doing it right, delivering long-lasting results. This philosophy has helped us stay busy for over 15 years.
The Story Behind Our Work
Brookline Concrete Services was born out of frustration. I spent years working for other companies, learning what worked well and what didn’t. I realized that while some of these other companies were cutting corners to save time and make more money, it ultimately hurt their customers in the long run. I also witnessed top-notch work being done as quickly as possible, just to meet an unrealistic deadline.
When I began my own company, I made the choice to build quality into every job — regardless of who is paying attention. That includes providing adequate foundation preparation, allowing the necessary amount of cure time before placing additional finishes, using correct reinforcement, and using quality products. It is the foundation (literally) or the first few days of a project that will determine if a project is successful or a failure.
Word-of-mouth has been the primary driver of our success. Our customers have referred their neighbors, and they have referred their friends. We have never had a large marketing budget. We simply focused on producing quality work that people would want to refer others to. This philosophy remains our focus to this day.

Our Commitment to Sustainable Practices
Environmental responsibility means a great deal to us:
Using Local Suppliers: All of the concrete we use for our projects, as well as all of the other materials we require, are sourced locally, which reduces transportation emissions and allows us to support our local economy.
Reducing Waste: Before starting each project, we work with the client to determine exactly how much concrete will be needed so there is little to no excess concrete to dispose of or to recycle (which we prefer).
Efficient Water Use: When we mix the concrete, we are efficient in the amount of water used. In addition, when we have finished placing the concrete, we utilize proper methods to prevent erosion at the site where it was placed.
Maintaining Equipment: If the equipment we operate is properly maintained, it will run cleaner and will also consume less fuel. As a result, this reduces emissions and results in reduced costs associated with the operation of the equipment.
Building Long-Lasting Work: The most environmentally friendly concrete is the kind that does not require replacement. For this reason, we strive to create long-lasting structures and therefore, reduce the negative impacts of repeated construction/repair/installation.
