Concrete Driveways

Why Choose Concrete for Your Driveway

Your driveway takes a beating every single day. Cars pull in and out, weather changes from freezing to hot, and salt gets tracked across it all winter long. You need a surface that can handle this kind of punishment without cracking, sinking, or falling apart.

Concrete driveways are built to last. When installed properly with the right base, they can easily serve you for 30 years or more. That means you install it once and stop worrying about it. No annual sealing like asphalt. No constant patching or filling in ruts. Just a solid surface that does its job year after year.

Here in Medford, MA, we see extreme temperature swings that destroy poorly installed driveways. That is why proper preparation matters so much. We excavate to the right depth, install a compacted gravel base, and use quality concrete with the correct mix design for our climate. The result is a driveway that resists freeze-thaw damage and stays level over time.

What We Offer for Your Driveway Project

We handle every aspect of your concrete driveway installation from start to finish:

• Complete removal of old driveways: We break up and haul away your existing asphalt, concrete, or gravel surface so you start with a clean slate.
• Professional site grading and base preparation: Proper drainage and a solid base are what make a driveway last. We take the time to do this right.
• Reinforced concrete pour: We use steel reinforcement and control joints to minimize cracking and ensure structural integrity.
• Smooth or broom finish options: Choose the finish that works best for your needs and aesthetic preferences.
• Driveway extensions and turnarounds: Add extra space for parking or easier vehicle maneuvering.
• Apron and sidewalk connections: We make sure everything connects properly to your garage and walkways.

Every driveway we install follows the same process that has worked for us since we started in 2024. We show up when we say we will, we clean up after ourselves, and we build it right the first time. No shortcuts.

How the Installation Process Works

Here is what you can expect when you hire us for your concrete driveway installation:

First, we come out to assess your property and discuss what you want. We measure the area, check the slope and drainage, and talk through your options. Then we provide a detailed written estimate that breaks down exactly what we will do and what it will cost.

Once you approve the estimate, we schedule your project. On installation day, we start by removing any existing driveway material and excavating to the proper depth. We install and compact the gravel base layer by layer to ensure stability. Next comes the forming and reinforcement setup, followed by the concrete pour and finishing.

After the concrete is poured and finished, we protect it during the curing process. Proper curing is critical for strength and durability. We will let you know exactly when you can drive on your new driveway, which is typically after 7 days of curing time.

What Affects the Cost of Your Driveway

The price of a concrete driveway depends on several factors:

• Size and square footage of your driveway
• Thickness of the concrete (typically 4 to 6 inches for residential driveways)
• Site preparation requirements and access challenges
• Removal and disposal of existing materials
• Special finishes like stamped or decorative concrete
• Local permit fees and requirements

Every driveway is different, which is why we provide free estimates. We come to your property, assess your specific situation, and give you an honest price. No games, no hidden fees. Just straight talk about what your project will cost.
