Tempe is land-locked and densely developed — most concrete projects are infill replacements rather than new construction. High-density residential near ASU creates demand for unit turnover concrete (small patios, sidewalk repairs, parking surfaces). South Tempe has larger single-family homes with standard driveway and patio needs.
The concrete needs across Tempe's neighborhoods vary from standard residential driveways and patios to commercial slabs and paving. Ares & Eros Contracting serves the full spectrum — residential homeowners, property investors, commercial developers, and general contractors — with the same standard of engineering and project management on every project.
• Tempe's growth trajectory means consistent demand for new residential driveway, patio, and slab construction.
• Tempe's commercial and employment base generates ongoing commercial concrete demand — slabs, paving, curbs, and sidewalks.
• Tempe property owners benefit from working with a licensed, veteran-owned contractor with Arizona-specific engineering expertise.

Tempe sits in Maricopa County's Sonoran Desert — one of the most demanding environments for concrete construction in North America. Generic concrete practices from other states fail here. Ares & Eros Contracting engineers every project specifically for what Tempe demands:
• Tempe's Salt River corridor soils are sandy and relatively well-draining. Areas away from the river transition to standard Maricopa County clay profiles. Tempe Town Lake area has fill soils requiring careful bearing capacity assessment for any structural work.
• Tempe summer temperatures reach 110–118°F. All pours are scheduled for early morning with immediate curing compound application to prevent surface cracking.
• Monsoon season drainage design is incorporated into every concrete surface in Tempe — slopes and joints engineered to handle rapid rainfall runoff.
• Arizona's expansive clay soils require proper sub-base preparation on every foundation and slab project in Tempe. We verify compaction before any pour.
Ares & Eros Contracting brings 15+ years of Arizona concrete experience, a military-precision project management approach, and genuine local knowledge to every Tempe project. We are not a national franchise — we are a veteran-owned Arizona company that knows this market.
