"In preparation for our driveway project, I had reached out to three construction companies. Alex with Toro Total construction was immediate in his response back, set up a time to come out personally to assess and give us a quote. His quote was fair and within our budget.. His timing and communication is excellent. He also took care of the headaches of getting the permits and oversaw personally our driveway project to completion. Even hand finished the surface, which was above and beyond."

Decorative Concrete questions, answered by experts

Shrinkage in concrete stems from the evaporation of water from the mixture as it cures. Contractors mix concrete with the proper amount of water to account for a set level of shrinkage. When the process happens unevenly between the top and lower layers of concrete, shrinkage cracks are bound to form.

Concrete slump can be affected by the amount of water in the mix, the size of the aggregate components, the mix’s temperature, how long the concrete is mixed, and more. Mixing concrete with the correct slump depends on almost every component of the concrete mix being correctly balanced and is critical to ensure the concrete performs as expected.

Yes, lampposts need a concrete base. The concrete base provides a stable foundation for the lamppost, which can be heavy from the weight of the light fixture and other accessories. A concrete base also provides structural support for the lamppost, keeping it from sinking into the ground or tipping over in the wind. 

Yes, you should seal your exposed aggregate concrete to keep it protected from the elements and reduce the risk of cracking and concrete spalling. You’ll need to invest in the cost of resealing your concrete about every three years to keep it in good condition. Unsealed exposed aggregate concrete is susceptible to water damage, stains, chips, cracks, and abrasion. Sealers are available in various finishes and levels of gloss. Outdoor exposed aggregate concrete should be sealed with a non-yellowing, UV-resistant sealer to preserve the look of the finish.

The average cost to replace concrete depends on the amount of material you need. However, you can expect the cost of replacing a concrete driveway to range from $2,000 to $7,000, or about $15 per square foot.

If you want to install or replace a concrete patio, the cost ranges from $800 to $9,000, depending on the size and exact materials. If you only need a slab, concrete slab costs range from $4 to $8 per square foot, or an average of $5,400.
