Driveways, aprons and RV pads

Concrete driveways in the Denver metro

New driveways, full replacements, wider aprons and RV pads, poured over a base built for Front Range ground.

Most of a driveway is the part you never see

What decides how long a driveway lasts sits under the surface. Across the Denver metro, plenty of lots sit on clay that swells when it gets wet and shrinks as it dries, and every winter adds freeze and thaw on top of that. A slab poured onto soft or poorly compacted ground will crack and settle, often within a few seasons.

So the job starts with the ground. The old concrete comes out, soft spots get dug out, and the base is graded and compacted before a single form goes in. Reinforcement goes where the slab needs it, and the joints are laid out so each panel can move without cracking across the middle.

We pour for new builds that never got a proper driveway, for older homes where the original slab has heaved or broken up, and for homeowners who simply want more room: a wider apron, a third parking spot, or a pad for the RV or trailer.

The details

Built for the weather here

  1. Joints where they belong

    Concrete shrinks as it cures and moves with the seasons. Control joints at the right spacing give any cracking a straight line to follow.

  2. A finish that grips

    A broom finish leaves fine ridges across the slab, so tires and boots hold on a snowy morning.

  3. Go easy the first winter

    New concrete keeps gaining strength through its first year. Skip the deicing salt that first winter and use sand for traction.

Good to know

Concrete driveways: common questions

How long before I can drive on a new driveway?

Foot traffic is usually fine after a day or two. Cars should wait while the concrete gains strength, typically about a week, and we give you the timing for your pour.

Can you widen my existing driveway?

Often, yes. If the existing slab is sound we can pour an extension beside it. If it is cracked or sinking, replacing the whole driveway usually gives the better result, and the quote lays out both options.

Do you remove the old concrete?

Yes. Breaking out the old driveway and hauling it away is part of every replacement.
