The driveway is the most-used slab on your property and the one most exposed to Las Vegas freeze-thaw and de-icing salt. We build it on a properly excavated and compacted base, in the right thickness and mix, and finish it broom, exposed-aggregate, stamped or coloured. New pours, full replacements and widenings, every one with a free written estimate.
A driveway that lasts is built before the concrete arrives. The old slab comes out, the ground is excavated and a granular base is laid and compacted so it drains and carries the load evenly. Skip that and the best finish in the world still cracks and settles.
Then the pour: the right slab thickness for the vehicles that use it, an air-entrained mix made to flex through Nevada freeze-thaw, and control joints cut on a planned layout so shrinkage follows a clean line. Sealing keeps water and de-icing salt out of the surface after.
We remove the old slab, haul it away, excavate to depth and check the grade so water will drain away from the house and garage.
Build and compact the base
A granular base goes down and is compacted in lifts, then we set and string the forms to the finished slope and elevations.
Pour and finish the driveway
We place the air-entrained mix, screed it flat, and finish it broom, exposed-aggregate, stamped or coloured to your choice.
Saw-cut joints and cure
Control joints are saw-cut on layout, the slab is cured, and we hand it over with the dates it is ready to walk on and drive on.
Finish options
Driveway Finishes Built for Las Vegas
The finish sets the look, the grip and part of the price. A brushed finish is the standard, hard-wearing, affordable and the easiest to keep clean through winter.
For more character, exposed aggregate shows the stone in the mix for grip and texture, stamped concrete presses in a pattern that reads like flagstone or brick, and coloured concrete tints the slab to match the house. We bring samples to the estimate so you can see them in daylight.
Cost, base prep, finishes and timing for a concrete driveway in Las Vegas.
Several things: the finish, the slab thickness, the base condition, site access, and how much old concrete has to come out. A broom-finish driveway generally runs $9 to $14 per square foot in Las Vegas, with stamped, exposed-aggregate or coloured finishes higher. Every quote is written and itemised after an on-site measure.
Yes. We handle tear-out of the old slab, haul-away, excavation and re-grading, then rebuild the gravel base before any forms go down. Driveway repair and resurfacing is also an option when the slab is structurally sound.
Most Las Vegas residential driveways are poured at four inches over a compacted granular base, stepped up where heavier vehicles park or turn. We confirm the thickness and any reinforcement on the site visit based on use and soil.
You can usually walk on it within 24 to 48 hours. Wait about seven days before light vehicle traffic and 28 days for full design strength. We give you the exact cure schedule at handoff.
Broom and exposed-aggregate finishes shed water and hide wear well; stamped and coloured finishes look sharper and want resealing every few years. Sealing is what keeps salt and water out of any finish.
Homeowner reviews
What Las Vegas Homeowners Say About Their Concrete Driveways
Old driveway was heaved and cracked corner to corner. They rebuilt the base properly and the new broom-finish slab has stayed dead flat through a full winter.

Went with exposed aggregate and it looks sharp. The crew brought samples to the estimate so we knew exactly what we were getting before the pour.

★★★★★
Widened the driveway for a second vehicle and tied it into the original cleanly. You would not know it was two pours, the colour and finish match.

★★★★★
Quoted a resurface instead of a full tear-out because the slab was still sound. Saved us money and they were upfront about it from the first visit.
