Concrete & demolition serving Southeast Wisconsin
Concrete Questions, Answered
Straight answers about cost, timing, and what to expect from a concrete or demolition job.
How much does a concrete driveway cost in Wisconsin?
It depends on the size, thickness, how much old concrete or asphalt has to come out, base work, and access. Two driveways the same size can be priced differently because of tear-out and prep. The quickest way to know your price is a free quote: we look at the job in person and get you a number.
What affects the price of a concrete job?
Size, thickness, tear-out and haul-away, base prep and grading, reinforcement, the finish (broom or stamped), steps or extras, access for equipment, and any permits.
When is concrete season in Wisconsin?
Most concrete work happens from spring through fall, when temperatures let concrete cure properly. Demolition and pool removal can often be scheduled into late fall, weather permitting. Getting your quote early helps you get on the schedule.
How long before I can use my new concrete?
You can usually walk on new concrete within a day or two, and drive on it after it has had more time to cure. We’ll tell you exactly when it’s safe for your job.
Will my new concrete crack?
Concrete can develop small cracks as it cures and moves with the seasons. Good base prep, reinforcement, and control joints are how we keep cracking to a minimum and in places where it’s less noticeable.
Should I seal my new concrete?
Sealing can help protect concrete from water, salt, and freeze-thaw damage. Ask us what we recommend for your driveway or patio.
Do I need a permit?
Some jobs do, especially driveway work that reaches the street, pool removal, and demolition. Every town has its own rules, and we’ll go over what yours requires.
Do you remove the old concrete?
Yes. We do both demolition and concrete, so tear-out, haul-away, and the new pour are one job.
