Concrete FAQs

Every project is priced individually because square footage, thickness, site access, base prep, reinforcement and finish all affect the total. A plain broom-finished slab costs less per square foot than stamped or colored decorative concrete. The best way to get an accurate number is a free on-site estimate — we measure, look at the conditions and give you a clear written price with no obligation.

You can typically walk on new concrete after 24–48 hours and drive a car on a new driveway after about 7 days, but concrete continues to gain strength for roughly 28 days. We will give you specific guidance for your project and weather conditions so you do not damage a fresh pour.

Stamped concrete is poured concrete that is colored and imprinted with textured mats to mimic natural stone, brick, slate or wood plank. It gives you the high-end look of pavers or flagstone with fewer joints for weeds to grow and a lower cost. Sealed and maintained, it is an excellent, long-lasting choice for patios, walkways and pool decks.

All concrete can develop hairline cracks over time — it is a natural part of how the material cures and moves. What separates good work from bad is controlling where cracks happen. We use proper base compaction, reinforcement and correctly spaced control joints to manage cracking and keep your surface strong and attractive for the long haul.

Concrete work is seasonal, but we can often pour into late fall and start again in early spring depending on temperatures. Cold-weather pours require extra precautions like heated blankets and mix adjustments. Reach out and we will let you know honestly whether it makes sense to pour now or schedule for the next season.

Yes. We handle tear-out and haul-away of old, cracked or heaving driveways, sidewalks, patios and slabs, then rebuild the base correctly and pour new concrete in its place.
