Concrete Driveways in Raleigh, NC
Raleigh driveways take a beating, from daily traffic and brutal summer heat to the red clay soil that shifts under a poorly prepped slab. We pour and replace concrete driveways all over Raleigh, from the older homes around Five Points and Midtown to the newer builds out in Brier Creek and North Raleigh.
A lot of the driveways we replace in established Raleigh neighborhoods are 30 to 50 years old: too thin, too narrow, and cracked from tree roots and decades of freeze-thaw. We tear them out, fix the base and drainage, and pour a properly reinforced four-inch slab (thicker where you park heavier vehicles) so the new driveway actually outlasts the old one.
After
BeforeWhat a Concrete Driveway Project in Raleigh Looks Like
A typical Raleigh driveway project for us is a full tear-out and re-pour on a mid-century home in Five Points or North Hills. We break out the old cracked slab, regrade and compact the base to fix the drainage that caused the cracking, set forms and rebar, then pour and finish with a broom or exposed-aggregate surface. Most are done in two to three days, weather permitting.

Concrete Driveways in Raleigh: FAQs
How much does a concrete driveway cost in Raleigh?+
It depends on the size, whether we're removing an old slab, site access and the finish you choose. Rather than guess, we give you a free written quote, so you know the number before anything starts.
Do I need a permit to replace a driveway in Raleigh?+
A like-for-like replacement usually doesn't, but widening the driveway or changing the apron where it meets the street can require approval from the City of Raleigh. We'll flag that before we begin, and if it does, the permit fee shows up on your quote as its own line.
Will tree roots crack my new Raleigh driveway?+
Mature willow oaks and pines are everywhere in older Raleigh neighborhoods. We deal with roots during base prep and can add reinforcement or tweak the layout to lower the chance of future heaving.
