Why Concrete Driveways?
​

​Concrete is an excellent driveway material. It is versatile, preferred for durability, appearance, low maintenance, and indicates quality construction from the first glance. A concrete driveway does it all.

​We normally use cast-in concrete for driveways that we can add color and imprint with a patterned design, depending on what you’re aiming for. Concrete driveways can look like bricks, tiles, cobblestones, or simple concrete patterns. Texture patterns can include bromide, swirl, or exposed aggregate.

Concrete Installation
​

To ensure your concrete driveways will look good for many years to come, we follow vital specifications during installations. First is high-quality workmanship and materials. We also follow the standard thickness, which is a major factor in determining a driveway’s structural capacity. Concrete should at a bare minimum 4 to 5 inches thick. Driveways for commercial establishments with more loads and heavier trucks passing by will require mor than 5 inches thick and additional materials to solidify its quality.  Other considerations during installation include the following:
​
  • Rebar and wire reinforcement - Bars will be placed in grid pattern with spaces at least 12 inches apart from each other to ensure structural integrity.
  • Properly prepared subgrade – Both composition and compaction will keep a good subgrade. Crushed rocks, gravels, and other good materials will be placed on the driveways depending on what is more appropriate.
  • Correct concrete mixes – Considering the load and weight passing over your driveway, we use high-performance concrete mixes. Prices can vary depending on the brands. Either way, we will give you a durable, low-permeability mix to withstand the rigorous condition that your driveway needs to bear.
  • Correctly placed joints – Joints must be paced at a maximum spacing of 10 feet for driveways that are 4 inches thick.  This helps prevent random cracks and premature damages in the future.
  • Proper finishing – The biggest mistake that other contractors make is overworking the surface and finishing driveways even though the bleed water is still present. We use three-step process to ensure your driveway is solid.  First, we level off the concrete, next float concrete with wood, and apply broom finish to improve the traction.
  • Proper drainage - At least 1/8 inch per foot should be sloping towards the street to create a good drainage.
  • Proper curing techniques – Curing the concrete driveway is the final step of installation process. We use different curing techniques for concrete driveways such as using plastic sheets, wet curing blankets, continues sprinkling, or liquid membrane-forming.

Concrete Repair
​

Replacement concrete is a process of repairing concrete when the defects or cracks are too large for a repair. In this process, we will have to remove the defective concrete from the structural membrane and prepare the damage for concreting. We usually recommend this process when the area exceeds 1 square foot and has a depth greater than 6 inches. In this case, repairing this concrete will not be enough. Concrete replacement is applicable for all various scenarios such as the following:
​
  • Holes that are too big and are reaching concrete sections
  • Holes that are 1 square foot deeper than 4 inches
  • Reinforced concrete with holes that are ½ square foot 
​Before we repair anything, we first know what the source of the problem is. Knowing the source of the problem will help tell us the proper step to be taken. We ensure every repair will last for long.
