Structural Concrete Construction in South Florida
Foundations, Slabs & Structural Systems
Structural concrete is where precision and experience matter most. At Tom Krips Construction, we handle every phase of structural concrete work, from foundations and slabs to structural walls, concrete roofing, and full shell construction. Each project is built with a focus on long-term strength, proper reinforcement, and the kind of detail that supports everything that comes after it. Whether it’s a custom home foundation or a full structural system, our team understands how to build it right from the ground up.
This work forms the backbone of residential and commercial construction throughout South Florida. We work closely with builders, developers, and property owners to ensure each phase is properly executed and ready for the next stage of construction.
Marine Construction in South Florida
Shoreline Construction & Marine Development
Marine construction requires experience working in some of the most demanding conditions in South Florida. Our team builds and repairs docks, seawalls, bulkheads, boat lifts, decks, boardwalks, and performs pile driving and dredging services to support waterfront properties. Every shoreline is different, so each project is engineered and built based on site conditions, water levels, and long-term stability.
From residential waterfront homes to larger marine structures, we focus on durability, code compliance, and functionality. Whether it’s protecting a shoreline with a new seawall or installing a floating dock system, our work is designed to perform in Florida’s coastal environment. We understand the importance of elevation requirements, permitting, and long-term structural integrity, especially in areas where waterfront regulations continue to evolve.
Land Services in South Florida
Land Development & Site Preparation Services
Our land services division prepares raw and undeveloped properties for successful construction. This includes land clearing, site preparation, demolition, earthwork, drainage, building pads, sheet piling, helical piles, and demucking. We also handle selective demolition when existing structures need to be removed while preserving usable portions of the site.
Proper site work is the foundation of every successful project, especially in South Florida, where soil conditions and drainage can vary significantly. Our team uses the right equipment and approach for each job to ensure stability, proper grading, and readiness for construction. From small residential lots to larger development sites, we focus on creating a clean, properly prepared base that supports everything built on top of it.

FAQs
Common Questions Before Starting
One of the biggest advantages of working with Tom Krips Construction early in the planning process is the opportunity to identify challenges before construction begins. Site conditions, project sequencing, accessibility, constructability, and scheduling can all impact a project's success. By becoming involved during planning rather than after decisions have already been made, our team can provide practical insight that helps improve efficiency, reduce costly changes, and create a smoother construction process from start to finish.
Absolutely. Many of our projects involve collaboration with architects, engineers, developers, and general contractors. Construction is a team effort, and we understand the importance of communication throughout every phase of a project. Our experience working alongside other professionals allows us to coordinate efficiently, address field conditions as they arise, and help keep projects aligned with both the design intent and construction schedule.
Tom Krips Construction was incorporated in 1987, but the company’s roots began even earlier when Thomas Krips Jr. entered the construction industry in 1978. After years of hands-on experience working in different areas of construction, Tom built the company from the ground up with a focus on quality workmanship and dependable service. What started as a small operation has grown into a family-run construction company serving South Florida with expertise across structural concrete, marine construction, and land services.
Our team is often the right fit for projects that require specialized construction knowledge, experienced crews, and the ability to coordinate multiple scopes of work. Whether it's preparing a site for development, constructing structural concrete systems, or completing marine improvements, we excel on projects where planning, craftsmanship, and problem-solving make a meaningful difference.
Many contractors specialize in a single area of construction. Tom Krips Construction brings together structural concrete, marine construction, and land services under one company, giving clients access to a broader range of expertise. This integrated approach often improves communication between project phases, reduces coordination challenges, and allows our team to better understand how one stage of construction affects the next.
