Your driveway takes more abuse than any other slab on your property: vehicle weight, Carolina summer heat, freeze-thaw nights and the red clay underneath that swells when it rains. We build driveways for those conditions from the ground up.
What's included
- Tear-out and haul-off of old asphalt, gravel or cracked concrete
- Compacted stone base sized to your soil
- 4" standard or 5-6" heavy-duty pours for trucks, RVs and trailers
- Rebar or wire mesh reinforcement
- Saw-cut control joints placed to manage cracking
- Broom, exposed aggregate or stamped finishes
- Driveway aprons, extensions and parking pads
Our concrete driveways process
Free on-site estimate
We measure, check drainage and grade, and give you a written price.
Excavation & base
We dig out to the right depth and compact a stone base so the slab doesn't settle.
Forms & reinforcement
Forms are set to slope water away from your garage, then rebar or mesh goes in.
Pour & finish
We pour, float and finish to the texture you picked, then cut control joints.
Cure & clean-up
We clean the site. You can walk on it in a day and drive on it in about 7.

Concrete Driveways FAQ
How much does a concrete driveway cost?
Most residential driveways in our area land between $8 and $15 per square foot depending on tear-out, thickness, access and finish. We give exact, written pricing after a free on-site visit.
How long before I can drive on my new driveway?
Foot traffic after 24 hours, passenger cars after about 7 days, and heavy trucks after 28 days when concrete reaches full design strength.
How thick should a driveway be?
4 inches is standard for cars. We recommend 5-6 inches with rebar for pickups, RVs, boats or work trucks.
Will my driveway crack?
All concrete can develop hairline cracks. Proper base compaction, reinforcement and well-placed control joints keep cracks small and where we want them.
