Make more of
the space you have.
More room to park. A place to gather. An easier path to your door. Choose a project that makes your property work better for you.
Patios
Create a comfortable place for dinner, conversation or a quiet afternoon outside. Leave room for furniture, movement and access to the house.
Walkways
Make the route to your door more welcoming and easier to navigate. A practical layout considers width, steps and changes in elevation.
Slabs
Give your planned structure or equipment a suitable foundation. The intended use guides the size, thickness, base and any required footings.
Replacement
Refresh concrete that has become cracked, uneven or worn. Removal and preparation help address what’s underneath and how the new surface meets its surroundings.
Decorative finishes
Add character with texture, color or patterns. Compare the look you want with traction and upkeep, alongside a traditional broom finish.
A plan before the pour
A clear plan.
A confident next step.
Understand the work before it begins, plan around the disruption, and know when your new concrete is ready to use.
- 01 / Start with your ideas
Tell us what you’d like to change.
Whether you’re replacing worn concrete or creating a new outdoor space, tell us what matters most. Share your location and a rough size to start the conversation.
You don’t need exact measurements or a finished design to get started.
- 02 / Understand the scope
Know what your estimate covers.
A useful estimate looks beyond square footage. Talk through your property, the preparation and the finished result so you can make an informed decision.
- Access + drainage
- How equipment will reach the work area and where rainwater needs to go.
- Removal + preparation
- What comes out, how it’s disposed of and what the new concrete will sit on.
- The finished surface
- The layout, thickness, finish and joints, plus any approvals, cleanup or restoration in the scope.
- 03 / Know what to expect
Prepare for the work.
Enjoy the finished space.Before work starts, talk through access, parking, utility locating and timing. Plan for weather and any changes to your daily routine while the area is out of use.
Once the concrete is placed, give it the time it needs. Get clear guidance on walking, driving, furniture and ongoing care before putting the space to use.
Looks dry doesn’t mean ready to use. Follow the curing instructions for your project.
Before you get started
Your questions,
answered.
From cost to curing, here’s what to know before starting a concrete project.
What affects the price of concrete work?
Size is only part of the picture. Removing old concrete, preparing the base, equipment access, drainage, thickness and finish all affect the scope. Share what’s there now and what you’d like to change so the estimate can account for your property.
When can I walk or drive on new concrete?
Concrete needs time to gain strength, even after it looks dry. Timing depends on the mix, weather and curing method, so follow the instructions for your project. Walking, moving furniture and driving can have different waiting periods; ask separately about heavy vehicles.
Will my new concrete crack?
Cracks can develop as concrete shrinks or the ground moves. Base preparation, curing and properly placed joints help manage that movement. Before the pour, discuss where joints will go and how the new concrete will meet your house or existing surfaces.
What should I check before work begins?
Check any permit or HOA requirements and agree on who handles approvals and utility locating. Point out private lines such as irrigation or landscape lighting, clear the agreed access route, and arrange other parking if your driveway will be out of use.
How should I care for concrete through a Michigan winter?
Keep drainage paths clear and follow the cleaning and sealing guidance for your finish. Deicing chemicals can damage concrete, especially when it’s new. Ask which products to avoid and what to use for traction during the first winter.
