Concrete Driveways, Slabs, and Flatwork
Prepped, formed, poured, and finished by the same crew.
What Concrete Involves
We handle concrete flatwork from the dirt up. Same crew does the grading, the forms, the pour, and the finish, so nothing gets lost between trades.
Concrete cracks when the base under it moves. That is why we take the prep as seriously as the pour.
When You Need Concrete
- You want a concrete driveway, apron, or parking pad.
- A shed, shop, or carport needs a slab.
- An old slab is cracked or heaving and needs replacing.
- You need a patio, walkway, or equipment pad.
- A driveway needs a concrete tie in where it meets the road.
Common Concrete Projects
- Concrete driveways and driveway extensions
- Shed, shop, and carport slabs
- Patios, walkways, and porch pads
- Driveway aprons and road tie ins
- Equipment and generator pads

How We Handle the Job
- 1
Prep the subgrade
Soft material comes out, base goes in, and it gets compacted before forms.
- 2
Form and reinforce
Forms set to grade with proper fall, then wire or rebar depending on the load.
- 3
Pour
Concrete goes in, gets screeded, and worked before it sets up.
- 4
Finish
Broom finish is standard for traction. Other finishes on request.
- 5
Joints and cure
Control joints get cut so cracks go where we put them, then it cures before traffic.
Equipment We Use
- Skid steer and excavator for subgrade prep
- Compactor for base under the slab
- Screeds, floats, and power trowel for finishing
- Saw for control joints
Why Experience Matters Here
Control joints are not decoration. Concrete is going to crack. Joints just decide where. We cut them at the right spacing and depth so the slab looks right in five years.
In this heat a summer pour sets up fast. We start early, keep the crew tight, and do not pour more than we can finish clean.
Concrete Questions We Get Asked
How thick should a concrete driveway be?
Four inches over a compacted base handles cars and light trucks. Go five to six inches with reinforcement if a work truck, RV, or equipment trailer will park on it.
How long before I can drive on new concrete?
Stay off it entirely for at least three days. Foot traffic after about a day, cars after about a week. Full strength takes about a month.
Why did my old slab crack?
Almost always the base. Soft or uncompacted fill under the slab settles, and the concrete follows it down. Missing or shallow control joints are the second most common reason.
Do you tear out the old concrete first?
Yes, we handle the demo, haul off, and prep as part of the job so you are not chasing a second contractor.
