Phoenix Concrete FAQ

Most residential driveways and patios take a few working days: demolition, grading, forms and rebar, then the pour and finish in one day. After that the slab needs time to cure before you walk or drive on it. You get a schedule with your written estimate.

It depends on the right-of-way. Phoenix's driveway policy needs no driveway permit for a concrete driveway up to 10.5 feet long in the right-of-way on streets with roll or ribbon curb, and a permit for a longer one or where there's no curb. We check your lot during the estimate.

Yes, with changes to the plan. We schedule summer pours for early morning, wet down the base, and start curing right after finishing so the surface doesn't dry out too fast and crack.

Concrete shrinks as it cures and moves with the soil. Nobody can promise a crack-free slab, but control joints placed at the right spacing, a compacted base and proper curing keep cracks in the joints where you don't see them.

We work across Phoenix, including Camelback East, Paradise Valley Village, Maryvale, South Mountain, Encanto and North Mountain.

Concrete shrinks as it dries and moves with the ground. Control joints give that movement a straight, planned place to crack, and a compacted base limits settling.

Foot traffic usually comes first and vehicles later, once the concrete has gained enough strength. We give you dates for your pour, since mix and weather change the timing.

Yes. Arizona law requires contacting Arizona 811 before excavation, and we wait for every utility on the ticket to respond before we dig.

Sealing helps stamped and colored concrete hold its color in the sun and resist stains. Plain broom-finished concrete is often left unsealed. We recommend what fits your surface.
