Concrete Driveways

A driveway is the first part of a home that is used or seen by guests. With this constant use and exposure to environmental factors, the material you choose for your driveway is vital. Concrete is one of the strongest and most durable materials for a variety of reasons. With Augusta Concrete Pros and the extensive list of concrete services we have to offer, our contractors can ensure not only a strong and durable surface but one that looks good while doing it. Contact our offices to find out more about the pricing and services that we have to offer.

Benefits of Concrete for your driveway

Driveways are exposed to the harshest environmental conditions. Rain, snow, and dust can all settle onto the surface and cause damage further down the line costing you for repairs and even a replacement sooner than you ideally would want to. Concrete is one of the most used materials for driveways amongst homeowners and good reason too. The strength and durability allow the material to provide a longer lifespan and cost you less in repairs or a replacement further down the line. Although many homeowners may associate concrete with the dull grey color we are all used to seeing, with stamped concrete this is no longer the case. Stamped concrete allows the surface to be completely customizable to everyone’s taste. Bespoke designs and even mimicking alternative materials such as wood, tile, or stone can all be achieved with stamped concrete, allowing your driveway not only to prove itself in strength but design too.

Maintenance 

Homeowners already have an extensive list of maintenance that needs to be done to keep their homes looking functional and in top condition. Concrete removes the added maintenance from this list for homeowners and provides a strong durable product without the need for constant maintenance and repairs. It is recommended to ensure your concrete surface is correctly sealed to stop moisture from entering the material. The seal should be applied annually to keep it intact. Over and above the seal, simple cleaning with a brush and water is all that is needed to keep your concrete in top condition.

Stamped concrete for your driveway

Concrete is completely customizable and depending on your taste and style each application can look completely different. Due to concretes properties, it is poured in liquid form before it is left to harden, this allows us to shape and style your driveway to your requirements without having to stick to the stock standard driveway shape. If you are someone who wants the look of tile or stone but wants the strength and longevity concrete has to offer, we have options for you too. Stamped concrete allows us to make your concrete driveway resemble that of alternative materials. With stamped concrete, we can achieve textures such as stone, wood, tile, or brick. Contact our team of contractors to find out more about the options we have.

Professional or DIY it?

Saving is essential and most homeowners are learning through DIY tutorials and social media platforms how to perform maintenance and home building without the need of hiring a professional. So, the question is, should I get professional contractors in or pour the concrete myself and save some much-needed cash. At Augusta Concrete Pros, we strongly suggest against this. We have a team of incredibly talented and skilled contractors who have spent years perfecting their trade. With a professional team of contractors, you are guaranteed quality work that will last and provide the strength you are looking for.
