Driveways, walkways, steps, and aprons poured and finished by a family-run crew from nearby Westbury — licensed and insured.
Much of Hempstead's housing sits close together on compact village lots, and on a lot like that the concrete carries the whole front of the property. The walkway, the stoop, the apron, and a narrow driveway are the approach to the house. When they're cracked and heaved, there's no deep lawn or planting to soften it — the concrete is the first thing anyone sees.
A lot of the flatwork in Hempstead has been down a long time. Old pours settle, tree roots lift slabs, and patched sections never quite match. We break out what's failed, fix the base underneath, and pour it right, rather than skim-coating over a problem that will come back through.
There's no adjusting concrete after the truck leaves. Whatever the base, the pitch, and the finish are when it cures is what you live with. On a tight lot where the driveway runs close to the foundation, pitch matters even more — water has nowhere to go except where the concrete sends it.
It starts with Kenny looking at the job and giving you a straight price before any work starts. On Hempstead's narrower lots we plan the logistics up front too — where the truck sits, how we get the old concrete out, and how we keep the mess off your neighbor's side of the line.
Then it's breakout and haul-away, base prep, forms, pour, and finish. Pitch gets set so water moves away from the house and off the surface, not toward the foundation or into a low spot that ices over in winter. Fresh concrete also needs time to cure before you walk or park on it, so we'll tell you honestly when it's ready — not just when we're done.
Because we also handle the landscaping and hardscaping, the ground around new concrete gets graded and tied back in as part of the same job — the yard reads as one finished property, not a fresh slab dropped next to old grass. And if the scope is the kind that needs paperwork with the village, Kenny will tell you that at the estimate, before anything gets scheduled.
It depends on the job, so we don't quote blind. The main cost drivers are the size of the pour, whether old concrete has to be broken out and hauled away, the condition of the base underneath, how tight the access is, and the finish you want. Kenny looks at the property and gives you a straight price before any work starts, and the estimate is free.
It depends on what's being built and where it sits on the property. Replacing existing flatwork is generally treated differently than new structural work, and Hempstead village has its own building department with its own rules. When Kenny looks at the job, he'll tell you whether yours is the kind that needs paperwork before anything gets scheduled.
Concrete needs time to cure before it can take weight, and a driveway needs longer than a walkway before a car goes on it. Rushing that is how new concrete gets ruined. We'll give you a real timeline for your specific pour when we schedule the job, including when you can walk on it and when you can park on it.
