Our Services

{"paragraph":"If you’re a Lincoln homeowner tired of that cracked, sagging concrete driveway, you’ve come to the right place. First we pull out the old slab and dig down to a clean, compacted base to keep the new surface from settling later. Next we lay a thick layer of crushed stone, grade it with a 1-2% slope, and add a vapor barrier to keep water from seeping up. We install rebar or welded wire mesh throughout the slab for strength and to stop future cracking. The concrete is poured to the right thickness—usually 4-5 inches for residential driveways—and finished smooth for a long-lasting surface. Finally we let it cure for at least a week, keeping it moist, before you drive over it. Call (888) 405-6638 for a free estimate and get your driveway back in shape."}

Reliable new concrete driveway

We lay a solid base before any concrete, breaking up old soil and adding crushed stone for stability. Forms are set straight, checked for a true level and proper slope for drainage. Rebar or wire mesh is placed to hold the slab together under load. The mix is poured to a thickness that matches heavy vehicle traffic. We finish with a broom texture for grip and let it cure slowly to avoid cracks.

Clear scheduling

Call us at (888) 405-6638 and we’ll lock in a start date that fits your calendar. We work weekdays and can shift to weekends if needed. Our crew arrives on time, ready to begin prep and pour. We keep you posted on progress each step of the way. No surprise delays, just a clear timeline from start to finish.

Honest pricing

We give you a written estimate with every cost item listed, so you know what you’re paying for. No hidden fees for extra fill or drainage work. Our pricing reflects the proper depth, reinforcement, and finish you need. We stick to the quote unless you request changes. Honest pricing builds trust and keeps the project on budget.

Local professionals

Our team lives in the area and knows the local soil conditions. We bring the right equipment for digging, compacting, and forming. Experience with local weather means we plan for proper curing in cold or hot temps. We respect neighbors and keep the worksite clean. You get a driveway built by folks who care about the community.

Prep that matters

First we clear the site, removing grass, rocks, and debris to expose clean subgrade. The ground is compacted and graded to a slight fall away from the house for water runoff. A layer of gravel is spread and tamped down for a stable base. Forms are set with stakes, and we double-check the slope before pouring. Proper prep stops future settling and cracks.

Follow-through

After the concrete is placed, we level it and apply a broom finish for traction. We control the curing process with blankets or misting, especially in hot weather. The slab cures for at least 48 hours before light traffic, longer for heavy use. We seal the surface to protect against stains and weather. Our follow-through includes a final walk-through to ensure you’re satisfied with the result.

Frequently Asked Questions

We can usually start within a week after you sign the contract and we get the permit sorted. Our crew will come to the site, check the layout and confirm the plan with you. We prep the soil, add a compacted gravel base, and set the forms before any concrete is poured. Timing depends on weather, but we aim to begin as soon as conditions are right. If you need a faster start, just let us know and we’ll see what slots are open.

A new concrete driveway includes site excavation, grading, and a compacted crushed stone base for stability. We install wooden or metal forms to shape the slab and place rebar or wire mesh for reinforcement. The concrete is poured to the proper thickness, usually four inches for passenger vehicles. We finish with a broom or trowel texture and add a slight slope for drainage away from your house. After pouring, we cure the slab with proper moisture control to prevent cracking.

Pricing is based on square footage, the thickness of the slab, and any extra work like grading or drainage. We charge a base rate per square foot that covers materials, labor, and formwork. If you need a steeper slope or a thicker slab for heavy trucks, the cost goes up accordingly. We also factor in accessibility, such as how far the crew must travel to the site. Call (888) 405-6638 for a detailed, no-surprise quote tailored to your driveway.

You don’t have to stay on site the whole time, but it helps to be around for the initial layout and final inspection. We’ll walk you through the plan before we start pouring. Once the concrete is poured, we’ll leave you to the curing process which takes a few days. If you have any questions during that time, you can call us. We’ll keep you posted on progress and let you know when the driveway is ready for use.

A typical residential driveway takes about two to three days from start to finish. Day one is for excavation, grading, and setting the forms. Day two we pour and finish the concrete, adding the proper texture and slope. Day three is for curing, where we keep the slab moist to prevent cracks. Weather can add a day or two, but most jobs wrap up within a standard workweek.

We stand behind our work with a warranty on the concrete slab and the installation. Cracks caused by poor preparation or early drying are covered for a set period. The warranty does not cover damage from improper use or extreme weather after the curing phase. We’ll fix any issues that arise within the warranty terms at no extra cost. Ask us for the full warranty details before we begin the project.

Start by clearing the area of grass, rocks, and debris. Excavate to the proper depth, usually 6-8 inches for a driveway. Compact the subgrade with a plate compactor. Add a 2-inch layer of crushed stone and tamp it flat. Check the slope; aim for a 1-2% drop away from the house for drainage. Install wooden forms and secure them tightly. Let the contractor lay rebar or mesh before pouring concrete.
