Dig out & compact the soil

What's under it
Concrete cracks when the ground under it fails.
So most of our work happens before the truck shows up. Scroll through the layers.
Four inches of crushed stone
A compacted gravel base drains water away and gives the slab an even bed to sit on.
Steel, lifted off the ground
Rebar on 18-inch centers, set on chairs so it ends up in the middle of the slab where it does its job.
4,000 PSI, finished by hand
Poured, screeded, floated and finished, then cut with control joints so any shrinkage cracks land in a straight line.

FAQ
Straight answers, no slump.
Will my concrete crack?
All concrete shrinks a little as it cures. Control joints make those cracks happen in straight, planned lines. A solid base and rebar keep the slab from cracking where it shouldn't. That's why we back it with a 5-year crack warranty.
How thick should my driveway be?
Four inches is fine for walkways and patios. We pour driveways at five inches, and six where heavy trucks or RVs will park.
Stamped or broom finish?
Broom finish is the most affordable and has great grip. Stamped concrete looks like stone, brick or wood and needs resealing every two to three years to keep its color.
What if it rains on pour day?
We watch the forecast closely and move the pour if heavy rain is coming. If a shower sneaks in, we cover the fresh concrete.
Should I seal it?
Yes. We seal stamped and colored concrete at the end of the job. A broom-finish driveway benefits from a penetrating sealer every few years, especially with road salt.
