What's Included in This Service?

You receive a full design consultation where the crew evaluates your herd size, feed volume, and site layout. In Bridgewater or a neighboring community, bunker walls must resist loader impact and feed pressure, so the team specifies reinforced concrete with appropriate thickness and height to match your storage needs and equipment access.


Rocktown Construction prepares the site by grading the pad area and installing drainage features to prevent water buildup. Concrete is poured for the pad and walls, with reinforcement placed to handle continual pressure and loader traffic. The surface is troweled smooth and sealed to improve hygiene and cleanability.


Once the bunker is complete, you receive guidance on filling, covering, and maintaining the structure to maximize feed quality and minimize waste. The crew ensures all dimensions and drainage features are optimized for your operation before finishing the project.
