Why replace

A new slab on a base that was fixed first

Most failing driveways failed at the base, not the concrete. Pouring new concrete over a bad base just buys you a few years. We tear out, regrade, and rebuild so the new slab has something solid to sit on.

Full tear-out and haul-awayThe old slab is broken out and removed, not covered over with a thin overlay.

Base regraded and compactedWe fix drainage and compact a fresh gravel base so the new slab drains and stays put.

Reinforced 4 to 6 inch pourNew concrete poured 4 inches for cars, thicker where trucks or RVs park, with wire mesh or rebar.

The difference

Why not just resurface the old driveway?

Resurfacing works when the slab underneath is sound and only the surface is worn. If your driveway is cracked through, heaving, or sinking, an overlay cracks right along the same lines within a season or two. Replacement is more work up front, but it is the honest answer when the slab has structurally failed.

We will tell you straight which one your driveway needs. If a repair or resurfacing will genuinely hold, we will say so. When we do recommend replacement, you get a written and itemized price covering removal, base work, reinforcement, and the pour, so there are no surprises after the old slab is out.

How it works

From old slab to new driveway

Assess and quote

We look at the cracking, drainage, and base, then give you a written price for removal and replacement.

Remove and regrade

The old slab comes out, the base is regraded for drainage, and fresh gravel is compacted.

Form, reinforce, pour

We set forms, add wire mesh or rebar, pour 4 to 6 inches, and finish the surface.

Joint, cure, walk-through

Control joints are cut, the slab cures, and we walk the finished driveway with you.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Should I replace or repair my driveway?

If the slab is cracked through, heaving, or sinking in sections, replacement is usually the better value. If it is structurally sound with only surface pitting or a few cracks, a repair or resurfacing can hold. We will tell you which after we look.

How long before I can drive on a new driveway?

Concrete is walkable in a day or two, but you should keep vehicles off for about 7 days so it gains enough strength. Full cure continues for weeks. We will give you the exact timing for your pour.

Do you remove and haul away the old concrete?

Yes. A full replacement includes breaking out the old slab and hauling the debris off site. We do not pour a thin overlay over a failing driveway and call it new.

Can you replace the driveway before winter?

In most cases, yes, as long as we can pour before hard freezes set in. We plan the schedule so the slab has time to cure properly before cold weather.
