OUR PROCESS

Driveway Installation Process

Concrete Driveway Process
1

Initial Consultation and Site Evaluation

We assess your driveway needs, evaluate site conditions like soil, slope, and drainage, and match our approach to your vision.

2

Custom Design and Planning

We draft a design outlining the driveway's shape and features, handle permits, and ensure compliance with regulations.

3

Site Preparation

We clear the area, excavate to the proper depth, and grade the site for a stable, level foundation and proper drainage.

4

Base Layer Installation

A compacted gravel base is laid to provide stability, prevent shifting, and form a solid foundation for the concrete.

5

Formwork and Reinforcement

We install forms to shape the driveway and reinforce it for durability.

6

Concrete Pouring

Concrete is mixed, poured into sections, and leveled for a smooth, even finish.

7

Surface Finishing

To prevent cracking, we add textures, such as brooming for non-slip surfaces and smooth edges and joints.

8

Curing Process

The concrete curing takes 28 days to reach full strength.

9

Final Inspection and Cleanup

We inspect the finished driveway to ensure quality and durability, then remove tools and debris, leaving the area clean.

What Maintenance is Required for Concrete Driveways?

Simply sweeping or hosing down your driveway every few weeks can keep it looking new, prevent dirt from settling in, and dull its finish.

Catch oil or grease stains early, and with a bit of soap and water, you’ll keep your driveway spotless and avoid long-term damage.

Applying a quality sealant every couple of years protects your driveway from Calgary’s harsh weather and daily wear, ensuring it stays strong and looks great.

Choose one specifically designed for concrete; you’ll give your driveway the protection it needs against water, chemicals, and elements.

Avoid harsh de-icers. Opt for safer alternatives that won’t eat away at your driveway’s surface, keeping it protected year after year.
Strong chemicals weaken your concrete over time. Stick to gentle cleaners designed for concrete, and you’ll maintain beauty and strength.
Be mindful when parking or driving close to the edge to avoid cracks or chipping—keeping the structure solid and intact.
