If you’re a Kirkwood homeowner hunting for a new concrete driveway, the first step is tearing out that cracked slab and hauling it away. A solid base follows – compacted crushed stone or gravel that’s at least four inches deep, keeping the driveway from settling later. Shape the ground with a gentle 2-4% slope away from the house so rainwater drains properly and won’t pool on the surface. Lay steel rebar or mesh in a grid pattern before the concrete is poured to stop cracking under traffic and temperature changes. Pour the concrete to a minimum of four inches thick for typical cars, and let it cure for at least seven days before heavy use. Proper curing—keeping the surface damp and covered—locks in strength and reduces shrink-crack risk. Call (888) 405-6638 for a free on-site estimate and get your driveway done right the first time.

Good prep makes a good driveway, especially in Kirkwood. We grade the ground to a proper slope for drainage, usually 1-2% away from the house. A crushed stone base is compacted to provide a firm foundation. Forms are set level and straight before concrete is poured. This careful prep stops water pooling and limits future cracking.
We don’t just pour and leave; we stay for proper curing. The slab is kept moist for at least 24 hours to gain strength. We check for any surface imperfections before the concrete sets. After curing, we remove forms and sweep away debris. You get a finished driveway that’s ready for use without cracks.

Homeowner-first means we listen to your drainage concerns. We slope the driveway at about 2% to keep water off your house. The base is built with layers of gravel for stability. We use a minimum 4-inch slab for typical cars, thicker if heavy trucks are expected. After the pour we protect the slab while it cures. We clean up the site, leaving it ready to use.
Quality focus starts with a solid base. We compact the soil and add a geotextile fabric to prevent settling. Forms are nailed tight to avoid movement. Reinforcement is placed according to the slab size. The concrete is mixed on site to ensure consistency. Curing is controlled with a misting blanket for at least three days.
Wide coverage means we handle any driveway size. From a short one-car path to a long two-car extension, we plan the layout. We ensure the slope meets local code for drainage. Our team can work on steep grades and tight corners. We bring all necessary tools, so you don’t need extra rentals. The finished surface is smooth and ready for sealing.
