"Fantastic! The guys at KW are great to work with. I had some grading work in addition to the driveway that really wasn’t driveway related. They did that work and the driveway with no issues. Their prices were very fair and they did the work quickly."
"Godfrey is a wonderful owner very knowledgeable about his craft and very honest when it comes to doing business I highly recommend for both small and large concrete or any other heavy machine projects you may have."
"I hired Peace Construction to pour the foundation for my new driveway. The guys with Peace Construction were highly dependable, provided quality work and the price was unbeatable.

"In every way, Joe's work and communication about that work was entirely extraordinary. I feel that I have a driveway and pad that will really last and got it in the most straightforward manner. We worked on a handshake and I wasn't disappointed at any point with his work, his crew, his methods, his timing, or his cleaning up after the job"
"Powells concrete came out and removed our old driveway and put in a new one and poured a pad in the back for a large shed. Mr. Powells guys came out and did a phenomenal job. It was done quickly and efficiently! I couldn’t have asked for a better crew. I will definitely be using them for all my future concrete, and I highly recommend these guys at Powells concrete!!"

Pressure washers are better for residential use. Power washers are best suited for cleaning very hard surfaces (like concrete and cement) and removing tough stains or tacked-on grime. Meanwhile, pressure washers have more uses. For example, you can use one to deep clean a wooden fence, spray down your vinyl siding, or clear out your gutters.
Some homeowners have luck using pressure washers, but this only works for old or weaker concrete sealants and with very powerful pressure washers. You’ll get better results by pressure washing water-based sealants. However, it’s worth trying on any sealant if you’re hoping for the least toxic, least expensive, and most DIY-friendly option. To try this method, rent or buy the most powerful pressure washer you can find and take several passes at the concrete, completely pressure washing the entire area. You may need to repeat the process multiple times to see results.
Since freeze-thaw cycles throughout the winter months can damage your driveway, it's best to winterize your driveway in the late fall before the first freeze hits. Doing so will help to protect your driveway from damage throughout the winter season. Plus, drier, warmer weather makes applying and curing sealant much easier.
Costs depend on surface material, level of grime, accessibility, labor, and required cleaning agents.
If you’re using water pressure above 2,000 PSI, you should wear a full face shield—at 4,000 PSI, a water jet can easily slice through skin. Always wear heavy-duty, waterproof gloves and rubber boots with metatarsal guards. If you’re working with hot water, make sure your gloves are insulated.
