Small Slabs · 1,000–10,000 Sq Ft · Miami-Dade · Broward · Palm Beach
Small jobs. Full code. Done right.
Nova Concrete Management pours concrete slabs for new homes, small buildings, steel buildings, warehouses, storage facilities, and retail from 1,000 to 10,000 square feet — using premium ready-mix concrete sourced from South Florida's top plants and poured to Florida Building Code minimums, every time.
What We Offer
Two ways to get your slab poured right.
Nova Concrete offers small-footprint builders, homeowners' GCs, and small-building developers premium ready-mix concrete sized exactly for a 1,000–10,000 sq ft job, and a full-scope slab installation that covers the entire job from formwork to finish.

- Sourced from established South Florida producers — Lime 3D Ready Mix, Superior, Ozinga, and Cemex
- Mix design set to Florida Building Code minimums for the slab type and county
- Delivery scheduled to your pour window, not a one-size-fits-all batch

- Parking lots, sidewalks, slabs, pool patios, walkways, and curbs
- One crew, one point of contact, one contract for the whole job
- Priced per job, with the mix design included

Code Minimums, By Job Type
Every small slab is mixed to your spec.
The table below follows the order these pours typically happen on a small job site — pad and structural work first, then site utilities, paving, and finish work last. It's the Florida Building Code floor for each type, not a menu: the actual mix design is matched to your engineer's specification, the job's exposure conditions, and the finish the pour calls for before the order is placed with the plant.
| Job Type | Job Phase | Typical Size | Code Min. Thickness | Code Min. Strength | Slope / Drainage | Code Basis |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| New-Home Slab | 01 · Pad & Structural | 1,000–3,500 sq ft | 4″ | 2,500–3,000 psi | Flat, vapor barrier below | FBC Ch. 4 & 19 |
| Steel Building Slab | 01 · Pad & Structural | 2,000–10,000 sq ft | 5–6″+ | 3,000–3,500 psi | Level to mfr. anchor-bolt layout | FBC Ch. 19 + PEMB spec |
| Warehouse / Storage Slab | 01 · Pad & Structural | 2,000–10,000 sq ft | 5–6″ | 3,000–3,500 psi | 1–2% to drain / per rack layout | FBC Ch. 19 |
| Site Aprons & Pads | 02 · Site Utilities | Site-specific | 4–6″ | 2,500–3,000 psi | Per county standard detail | County / FDOT std. details |
| Retail / Office Slab | 03 · Paving | 1,000–6,000 sq ft | 4–5″ | 3,000 psi | Max 2% cross slope at ADA entries | ACI 330 · FBC Ch. 19 |
| Walkways & Aprons | 04 · Finish | 100–800 LF | 4″ | 3,000 psi | Max 1:12 ramps, 1:48 cross | FBC Ch. 11 & 19 |
→ Phasing is a typical sequence, not a fixed rule — site conditions and your schedule can move it. These are also code floors, not what every job actually pours at; Nova sets the mix higher where the project, the exposure, or the engineer's spec calls for it.
→ All three counties enforce the Florida Building Code as their base; local differences show up mainly in permitting and right-of-way standards, not in the core slab specifications. Steel building slabs also follow the building manufacturer's engineered anchor-bolt and loading layout.
Why Nova Concrete
Sized right for a small job, built to code every time.
Sourced from established, quality-controlled plants
Every load comes from a trusted South Florida ready-mix producer — Lime 3D Ready Mix, Superior, Ozinga, or Cemex — not an improvised mix.
Code compliance set before the pour, not after
Mix design is confirmed to the applicable Florida Building Code class — and, on a steel building, to the manufacturer's anchor-bolt layout — before the order is placed.
Mix matched to the job, not a generic default
A new-home slab, a steel building pad, and a warehouse floor each call for a different strength class and finish; the right plant and mix are selected for the pour.
One crew, one point of contact
Small jobs don't get split across multiple suppliers and crews — Nova coordinates the delivery and self-performs the formwork, pour, and finish.
Consistent quality, pour after pour
Working with established plants means predictable slump, strength, and set time, not pour-to-pour variability.
Local South Florida sourcing
Our supplier plants operate throughout Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach, so delivery times stay short and reliable even in storm season.
