Concrete Driveways - Engineered and Designed to Last
A driveway is a critical part of the modern home and is a major factor in a home's curb appeal. A properly designed and constructed driveway should be beautiful, durable, and functional. It should serve your needs now and for decades to come.
Our driveways are designed to fit your needs and wants, and are engineered to last. We use 4000-psi concrete, which has a one-third greater compressive strength than the concrete required by most local codes.
Additionally, we include elevated #3 rebar on 18" centers. This is 33% more rebar than that used by most other companies that include rebar, and the fact that we elevate our rebar to the center of the pour is a key element in the strength and longevity of our concrete. The rebar reinforces the concrete and prevents major lifting, horizontal shear, or separation of the concrete pour over time.
This all goes on top of the prep work underneath which includes a 2" compacted gravel base. The gravel base improves subsoil drainage, helps to prevent washouts, and protects against the natural expansion/contraction of the clay in our local soil.
