Concrete Projects We Do

Driveways and Driveway Extensions

Replacement driveways, wider parking pads and extensions for an extra vehicle or RV. We check slope, drainage, the transition to the street and any city or HOA rules before we quote.

Patios and Backyard Concrete

Poured patios for seating, outdoor kitchens and spas, and slabs that tie into existing hardscape. Many Valley backyards need drainage planned away from the house.

Slabs, Walkways and Flatwork

Equipment pads, side yard walks, front walks and storage slabs. Intended use sets the thickness, base and reinforcement.

Removal and Replacement

Concrete with widespread cracking, settlement or heaving usually needs to come out. We price demolition, haul-off and new concrete together so you can compare one number.

What Affects Concrete Cost in the Phoenix Area

Concrete is priced by the job, not by a single standard rate. These are the factors that move the number:

  • Square footage and thickness, which drive concrete and labor volume
  • Demolition and disposal of old concrete
  • Access for trucks, pumps and equipment, and whether concrete must be carried or pumped
  • Grading, base preparation and drainage
  • Reinforcement, control joints and expansion joints
  • Finish type, color and edge details
  • City permits and HOA approval, where required

Arizona Conditions That Affect Concrete

  • Heat. Placing and finishing concrete in extreme summer heat is harder. Early starts and proper curing protect the surface from cracking and weak spots.
  • Hard soil. Many Valley lots have caliche, a hard layer that slows excavation and can change base preparation.
  • Cracking. All concrete cracks. Control joints placed in the right spots guide where it cracks. Ask any contractor how they lay out joints.
  • Monsoon runoff. Grading and drainage matter more than the finish.

Repair or Replace?

Hairline cracks and small surface flaking can often be sealed or patched. Settled slabs, wide cracks, trip hazards and slabs that drain toward the house usually call for replacement. Photos from several angles help us tell the difference before the site visit.

QUESTIONS

Concrete Questions

How much does a concrete driveway cost in Phoenix?+

Price depends on size, thickness, demolition, access, grading and finish, so we price after seeing the site. A replacement driveway that needs removal costs more than a new pad over bare ground.

How long before I can use new concrete?+

Concrete cure time depends on the mix, weather and project conditions. Follow the project-specific guidance provided before allowing foot or vehicle traffic.

Can you replace my existing patio or slab?+

Yes. We remove the old concrete, prepare the base and pour new concrete. Send photos of the full area, visible damage and adjacent surfaces.

Do I need a permit for a driveway or patio?+

It depends on the city and the work. Driveway work that touches the public right of way, such as an apron at the street, usually needs a city permit. HOAs often require approval for changes to the front of the home. We tell you what applies to your address before we start.

Can you give a final price from photos?+

Photos let us tell you if the job is a fit and give a rough direction. A final price needs a site visit so we can measure and check access.
