Gas Station Concrete Pads in Weatherford, TX
Heavy-duty concrete pads and islands for gas stations and convenience stores.
Professional Gas Station Concrete Pads Services
Gas station concrete pads require heavy-duty construction to support fuel dispensers, canopy structures, and high-traffic operations while meeting strict environmental and safety standards. In Weatherford, TX, we understand the unique challenges of petroleum facility construction including fuel-resistant coatings, proper drainage systems, and compliance with Petroleum Equipment Institute (PEI) standards.
Our gas station concrete services include pump islands, canopy support pads, truck diesel lanes, and parking areas designed to withstand constant vehicle traffic and fuel exposure. We work closely with petroleum equipment installers to ensure proper pump placement and canopy column support while maintaining environmental compliance for fuel containment and stormwater management.
From convenience store entrances to underground fuel tank foundations, we provide complete concrete solutions for gas station construction. Our team handles the specialized requirements of fuel-resistant concrete that prevents petroleum damage while providing the durability needed for commercial fueling operations in Parker County.
With Weatherford's strategic location along major highways, we serve both local fuel retailers and national chains requiring fast-track construction schedules and compliance with Texas environmental regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions About Gas Station Concrete Pads
Gas station pump island concrete in Weatherford should be minimum 8 inches thick with fiber reinforcement for standard vehicle traffic, and 10-12 inches for truck diesel lanes. Canopy column pads require 12-14 inch thickness to support point loads. The concrete must be 4000-5000 PSI with fuel-resistant sealers to prevent petroleum damage. Parker County soil conditions often require engineered base preparation with moisture barriers. All work must meet Petroleum Equipment Institute (PEI) standards and environmental regulations for fuel facilities.
We use Petroleum Equipment Institute (PEI) approved fuel-resistant sealers specifically designed for petroleum exposure. These coatings prevent fuel absorption, resist chemical damage, and provide long-term protection against gasoline, diesel, and other petroleum products. The sealers are applied to all concrete surfaces within the fuel containment area and meet Texas environmental regulations for fuel facility construction.
Gas station concrete requires positive drainage away from fuel dispensers to prevent fuel pooling and ensure environmental compliance. We design drainage systems that direct stormwater away from fuel areas and into approved containment systems. Proper grading ensures fuel can't migrate toward buildings or environmentally sensitive areas. All drainage systems meet Texas Department of Transportation and EPA stormwater regulations.
We handle all gas station concrete including pump islands, canopy support pads, truck diesel lanes, convenience store entrances, parking areas, dumpster pads, and underground tank foundations. Our services cover new construction, remodels, and equipment upgrades. We work with both branded and independent fuel retailers throughout Weatherford and Parker County.
Typical gas station concrete projects take 3-6 weeks depending on size and complexity. Pump islands and canopy pads require 2-3 weeks including curing time. Parking and drive areas take 1-2 weeks. We coordinate with fuel equipment installers and can accommodate fast-track schedules for new station openings. Weather conditions in North Texas can affect construction timelines.
Yes, we regularly work with national fuel brands, regional chains, and independent operators in Weatherford and Parker County. We understand brand-specific construction standards, prototype requirements, and compliance with corporate engineering specifications. Our team has completed numerous branded fuel station projects and maintains relationships with major petroleum equipment suppliers.
Gas station construction requires multiple permits including Parker County building permits, Texas Department of Motor Vehicles approvals, Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) permits for fuel storage, and local environmental permits. We handle all permitting requirements and ensure compliance with federal EPA regulations for underground storage tanks and fuel containment systems.
Gas station concrete costs range from $12-25 per square foot depending on specifications and complexity. Pump islands with fuel-resistant coatings typically cost $18-25 per square foot. Canopy support pads require engineered design and cost $20-30 per square foot. Basic parking areas range from $8-12 per square foot. We provide detailed quotes after site assessment and soil testing.
