Two Owners, One Standard
Southwest Concrete Innovations Ltd. is an owner-operated concrete company based in Watford, Ontario. Greg and Ralph Bork started working together in the concrete industry more than 20 years ago and founded SWCI in 2011. Since then, one thing has not changed: the owners answer the phone, price the work and pour the concrete themselves.
How We Work
Greg and Ralph believe the best advertising is a neighbour pointing at their driveway. Most SWCI work comes from referrals — customers who chose us not because we were the cheapest quote, but because friends and family told them we do what we promise.
- Owner involvement in every step — from the first consultation to being on site doing the work with our crew.
- No shortcuts under the surface — proper grading, compacted base and steel reinforcement in every pour.
- A tidy site and a professional crew — clean-cut, courteous and careful, with a full cleanup the day after the pour.
- Straight answers — honest pricing, realistic timelines and a clear explanation of every option.
- Guaranteed workmanship — licensed, insured, WSIB-covered, and standing behind every job since 2011.
We are part of this community too — SWCI sponsors Watford Cornfest and the John Knox Christian School and Strathroy Community Christian School golf tournaments.
3,000 Square Feet of Stamped Concrete in Thamesford
A few years ago we poured a large, intricate back patio in Thamesford — just over 3,000 sq ft of stamped concrete, tied together with landscaping that makes the whole backyard feel like one space. It is the kind of project that shows what concrete can do when it is planned properly, and it is still one of the jobs we are most proud of.
