Scheduling Your Project
Most outdoor projects in Oregon are best scheduled between late spring and early fall when weather conditions are favorable. However, we work year-round on projects that aren't weather-dependent. Contact us to discuss the best timing for your specific needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a concrete driveway last?
A properly installed concrete driveway can last 30-50 years with minimal maintenance. The key factors are proper base preparation, correct concrete mix design, adequate thickness (typically 4-6 inches), proper reinforcement, and well-placed control joints. Oregon's climate is well-suited for concrete when installed correctly.
How much does a concrete driveway cost compared to asphalt?
Concrete driveways typically cost 30-50% more than asphalt upfront. However, concrete requires much less maintenance over its life (no seal coating needed) and lasts roughly twice as long. When you factor in total lifecycle cost, concrete is often the better value. We provide detailed quotes for both options.
How long before I can drive on new concrete?
We recommend waiting at least 7 days before driving passenger vehicles on new concrete, and 30 days for heavy trucks or equipment. The concrete needs time to reach its full strength — it reaches about 70% strength at 7 days and near full strength at 28 days. We provide specific curing instructions with every project.
Will my concrete driveway crack?
Minor hairline cracks are normal in concrete and are not structural concerns. We minimize cracking by installing properly spaced control joints that guide where cracks occur (in the joints, not randomly). Proper base preparation, reinforcement, and curing practices further reduce cracking risk.
