For Architects, Engineers & General Contractors


Greenville, SC

A Qualified Subcontractor for Division 03 and Division 09 Specifications in the Carolinas

Zachary Daniel Concrete partners with general contractors, architects, engineers, and facility managers on commercial and industrial flooring throughout the Upstate. We install resinous flooring, high-performance coatings, polished concrete, and decorative concrete finishes to spec — and we make your job easier by organizing our scope, submittals, and references the way you already work: by CSI MasterFormat section.

Whether you’re scoping a warehouse, distribution center, commercial kitchen, dealership, manufacturing plant, or institutional facility, we can match your specification, prepare the substrate to the required ICRI surface profile, and deliver the documentation your project manual calls for. If you need a quick conversation before bid, reach out and we’ll route you to the right person.
