Our Services

If you’re hunting for a new concrete driveway in the Near South Side, you’ve probably seen cracked slabs and uneven spots that just won’t quit. First thing we do is pull out that old concrete, making sure every piece is gone so nothing can settle under the new slab. Next we spread a clean, well-compacted gravel base and add a slight slope – usually about 1-2% – so rainwater runs off and doesn’t pool. We lay rebar or a wire mesh through the mix to keep the slab from cracking under traffic and temperature changes. After the pour, we keep the surface damp for at least a week, letting it cure properly before any cars roll on. Call (888) 405-6638 for a free quote and a solid start to your new driveway.

Reliable new concrete driveway

We build a solid concrete driveway from the ground up. First we clear the area and remove any soft soil. Then we lay a compacted gravel base for stability. Forms are set straight and level to keep the slab even. Rebar is placed for strength and to stop cracking. The slab is poured at the right thickness and finished smooth. Proper curing keeps the surface strong and crack-free.

Clear scheduling

Schedule is simple and transparent. You pick a date that works for you and we lock it in. We show up on time with all the tools and materials ready. The crew works efficiently to finish the pour in a day. We keep you informed of progress every step. If anything changes, we call you right away. Reach us at (888) 405-6638 for any questions.

Prep that matters

Prep is the foundation of a lasting driveway. We excavate to a proper depth and check for a stable subgrade. A 4-inch compacted base of crushed stone is laid for drainage. Forms are nailed tight and level for a flat surface. Rebar is placed in a grid to reinforce the slab. The concrete is poured to the correct thickness and smoothed. Proper curing is essential to avoid cracks.

Follow-through

We follow through from start to finish in Near South Side. After the pour, we keep the slab moist for several days. This prevents early shrinkage and surface cracking. We inspect the finished driveway for any imperfections. Any needed touch-ups are done promptly. Final cleanup leaves the site tidy and ready for use. Our after-care ensures the driveway lasts for years.

Frequently Asked Questions

We can usually start a new concrete driveway within a week of signing the contract. Once we have the site cleared and the permit sorted, we schedule the crew to show up. Our team will come early in the morning to begin excavation and grading. We’ll set forms, lay rebar, and pour the slab in one day. After that, we’ll cover the new driveway and begin curing. The whole process moves quickly if the weather holds up.

A new concrete driveway includes site preparation, excavation, and a compacted base of crushed stone. We install forms to shape the slab and place rebar for reinforcement. The concrete is then poured to a minimum thickness of four inches for residential use. We add a slight slope for drainage and finish the surface with a broom or trowel texture. Finally, we cure the slab with proper moisture control to avoid cracks.

Pricing is based on the square footage of the driveway and the thickness of the slab. We also factor in the cost of excavation, base material, rebar, and any special finishes. Access to the site and slope requirements can add to labor costs. We give a written estimate that breaks down material and labor line items. No hidden fees, just the work you need done.

You don’t need to stay home the whole time, but we do need you on site for a short walk-through before we start. It’s important you approve the layout and slope so we know it’s right. Once we begin pouring, the crew works independently and you can be away. We’ll call you when the concrete is poured and ready for curing. If you have any concerns, you can reach us anytime at (888) 405-6638.

A standard residential driveway takes about one to two days for the actual pour and finishing. Curing takes an additional 24 to 48 hours before you can drive on it. Weather can add a day or two if we need to wait for dry conditions. After curing, we’ll clean up the site and remove the forms. Overall, expect the whole job to be finished within a week.

We stand behind our work with a one-year guarantee against major cracking or settlement. The guarantee covers any defects from poor site prep, insufficient base, or improper curing. We’ll repair any problem that falls under the warranty at no extra cost. The guarantee does not cover damage from heavy equipment or improper use. Keep your receipt and contact us promptly if an issue appears.
