  • What services do you offer as a concrete contractor?

    We specialize in all types of commercial and residential concrete services. This includes driveways, sidewalks, patios, stamped or stained concrete, garages, stoops or steps, driveway caulking, commercial concrete work, landscape curbing, and more.

  • How long does it take to complete a concrete project?

    A concrete project will vary in terms of length. It depends on the size and complexity of your project. Most driveways and patios take between three and seven days from start to finish. This includes preparation, pouring, and curing.

  • What is stamped or stained concrete?

    Stained concrete involves applying a color to the surface. This can achieve a decorative finish. Stamped concrete, on the other hand, is textured to mimic the appearance of brick, stone, wood, or other materials. Both options create a custom finish for your concrete.

  • Do you provide free estimates?

    Of course! Free, no-obligation estimates are available for all our concrete services. We can have your estimate ready the same day. Contact us to schedule an appointment.

  • How long does concrete need to cure before use?

    Usually, concrete needs 24 to 48 hours to set before it’s safe to walk on. However, for light use like driving on a new driveway, we recommend waiting about seven days. Full curing, which is when the concrete reaches maximum strength, doesn’t happen for about 28 days.

  • How do I maintain my concrete driveway or patio?

    To keep your concrete looking amazing, our experts recommend sealing the surface every two to three years. We also recommend cleaning it regularly and avoiding the use of harsh chemicals or de-icers that can damage the surface. Caulking any cracks is also vital for long-term durability.

  • Can you repair or resurface existing concrete?

    Yes, we offer concrete resurfacing and repair services. Whether your concrete is worn, uneven, or cracked, we can restore it to a like-new finish.

  • What are the benefits of choosing concrete for my driveway or patio?

    Overall, concrete is durable, easy to maintain, and highly customizable. It can handle the fluctuating weather conditions in Omaha, NE, and it can be designed to match any aesthetic preference with staining, stamping, polishing, and more.

  • Are your services covered by a warranty?

    Of course. We always stand by our work. The specifics of the warranty will depend on the type of project. However, our one-year workmanship warranty covers most things. We also have other workmanship and material warranties. Ask us to learn more!

  • Do you work year-round?

    We do strive to work as much as possible all year long. However, extreme cold can affect the installation and curing of concrete. We’ll work with you to find the best timeline for your project, and we’ll consider the weather conditions in Omaha, NE.
