Question 1

What types of concrete services do you offer?

Accepted Answer

We specialize in a wide variety of concrete services, including residential and commercial floors, driveways, patios, sidewalks, and foundations. We also provide excavation services for site preparation, gravel driveways, and dirt grading to ensure your project starts solid.

Question 2

How much does a concrete project typically cost?

Accepted Answer

We have a $900 minimum for small jobs, but the cost of a project depends on several factors, such as the size of the area, excavation requirements, and how accessible the site is. For example, a 600-square-foot driveway installation could cost between $4,000 and $6,000, while a 300-square-foot patio might range from $3,000 to $5,000.

Question 3

How long will my concrete project take?

Accepted Answer

Project timelines depend on the size of the job and weather conditions. Most smaller projects, like driveways or patios, take 1-3 days, while larger jobs such as foundations may take longer. We’ll provide you with an estimated start and completion date to help you plan ahead.

Question 4

Do I need a permit for my concrete project?

Accepted Answer

In many cases, yes. Permits are required for larger projects like foundations or driveways, but the specific requirements vary depending on your location. We can assist with the permitting process to ensure everything is in compliance with local regulations.

Question 5

What kind of maintenance does concrete require?

Accepted Answer

Regular maintenance is essential for preserving the longevity of your concrete surfaces. We recommend sealing your concrete regularly, and we offer professional seal coating services. It’s best to apply sealant before temperatures drop below freezing to ensure proper adhesion and protection. Keeping your concrete clean and avoiding harsh chemicals will also help it last longer.

Question 6

Does your concrete installation include dirt work or landscaping?

Accepted Answer

No, our concrete installation does not automatically include dirt work, straw matting, or grass seeding. Additionally, in certain conditions, such as springtime when the ground is soft, our equipment may cause ruts that will require additional dirt or landscaping work. While these services aren’t included in our initial concrete price, we’re happy to provide an estimate for them upon request. For smaller projects like patios or driveways, this additional work typically costs between $250 and $500, depending on the scope.
