What changes the price

  • Square footage and thickness
  • Removing old concrete and preparing the base
  • Finish: broom, stained or stamped
  • Access for the truck and permits
  • Where you live. Local labor costs, demand and travel time move prices up or down from the national average.

How to pay less

  • Choose a standard broom finish. Stained and stamped concrete cost more per square foot.
  • Pour larger areas at once. Small jobs often cost more per square foot because of minimum charges.
  • Repair or lift a sunken section instead of replacing the whole driveway, if the rest is sound.
  • Ask whether removal and hauling of the old driveway is in the quote.
  • Compare at least two or three quotes for the same scope. Pros on Job Hound never pay for leads, so no lead fee is built into their price.
