Concrete driveway installation and replacement
A driveway carries weight from cars and trucks every day.
The base, slope, and slab thickness matter.
What we handle on driveway projects
Tear out and haul away of old concrete or asphalt
Grading and base prep for a solid subgrade
New concrete driveway slabs with proper slope
Thickened edges or heavier sections where needed
Control joints to help guide cracking
Good projects for a new concrete driveway
Old cracked or sunken driveway that holds water
Gravel or dirt drive that needs a clean surface
Narrow drive you want widened near the garage
Concrete patios and outdoor slabs for living space
A concrete patio becomes an outdoor room.
The height, layout, and finish affect how you use it.
We pour concrete patios and outdoor concrete slabs for:
Back yard sitting and dining areas
Outdoor kitchens and grill pads
Slabs for sheds, small shops, and storage
Concrete pads beside the house for trash cans or gear
On a patio project we:
Check door swings and step downs
Set slope away from the house
Plan control joints and any decorative concrete borders
Offer finishes such as broom, light texture, or stamped concrete
Concrete walkways and sidewalks around the home
Walkways guide people through the property.
They should feel solid underfoot and drain well.
For concrete walkways and sidewalks, we look at the project in three parts.
Path layout
-Route from driveway to front door
-Side yard access to the back
-Links between patio, shed, and pool area
Base and form work
-Strip or remove soft soil
-Compact base so the path does not shift
-Form to the right width and slope
Concrete pour and joint layout
-Pour and finish to match nearby concrete
-Place control joints on a steady layout
-Tie in to existing slabs where needed
Concrete steps, stoops, and porches for entries
Entry concrete needs safe step heights and solid support.
Here is how we look at concrete steps, stoops, and porches.
What we build
-New front steps with a small landing
-Back door stoops tied into patio slabs
-Porch slabs at the main entry
How we build it
-Set riser and tread sizes to keep steps even
-Tie steps into landings or slabs with rebar
-Form and pour in a way that sheds water
What this solves
-Settled or broken steps that feel unsafe
-Loose patch work over old crumbly concrete
-Entries that hold puddles against the house
Concrete pool decks and backyard slabs
Pool and yard slabs sit in wet and sunny areas.
Surface grip and drainage matter.
For concrete pool decks and backyard slabs, we look at these points.
Surface choices
-Broom finish for better traction
-Light texture for comfort on bare feet
-Decorative concrete or select stamped concrete patterns
Layout planning
-Walk zones around the pool
-Lounger areas and seating pads
-Slabs for hot tubs or small outbuildings
Details we include
-Slopes that move water away from pool and house
-Expansion joints in long runs
-Curved edges or borders where the plan calls for it
Retaining walls and garden walls
Retaining walls hold back soil.
Garden walls frame beds and edges.
When we build retaining walls and garden walls, we think in layers.
Base and footing
A level, compacted base that supports the wall.
Drainage
Drain stone and pipe behind the wall so water has a path out.
Reinforcement and stack
Rebar or block core fill where needed for height and load.
Face and finish
Plain concrete, block face, or simple decorative concrete finish.
We use this approach on short walls along driveways, yard slopes, and planter edges.
