Throughout the years, Cruz Concrete & Guniting Repair has been recognized for its efforts, craftsmanship and consistency by the American Shotcrete Association (ASA).
Park Avenue Tunnel
Rehabilitation + Repair
The Park Avenue Tunnel has existed in Manhattan since 1837. In 2012 it was to undergo repair, in 2019 Cruz Concrete constructed an arched shotcrete ceiling, up to 12-inches thick.
You can think of our crew as modern-day Michelangelo’s, shooting and finishing concrete for an entire summer, looking upward. Plus, all the concrete placed was mixed on-site by our female operator.
Fort Mott
Rehabilitation, historical
Given the Honorable Mention in 2012, Fort Mott, once a post-Civil War outpost, now a New Jersey State Park. The Fort was constructed in 1872, and became a State Park in 1947. As a historic landmark, Cruz had utilized a concrete mix to match the existing concrete type and texture.
