"Justin is amazing and he did an excellent job removing our old driveway and installing a beautiful new one. His crew is awesome and they were so clean and respectful of us and our landscaping. I am completely satisfied with there work and I highly recommend them. They removed 3 layers of concrete, hauled everything away and placed the new driveway in just two days. This is the second project he has done for me and his pricing is outstanding and his work is excellent and he is competent, professional and a respectful young man. I can't say enough about how amazing, clean and fast they completed the work. I recommend him over anyone I have ever used in the past."

Patios questions, answered by experts
Yes, you can pour concrete if it rained the day before, but you’ll need to drain the construction site to ensure there isn’t standing water where your slab will sit. You might need to manually remove any puddles and set up drainage on your site to dry it before pouring. Moist soil won’t be an issue, but standing water will throw off your concrete mix ratios. Additionally, ensure there isn’t more rain expected in the near future before you pour.
Adding a stamped concrete patio is an affordable way to bring some elegance into your backyard entertaining area, which could add to your home’s value. Provided your stamped concrete patio is installed by a local stamped concrete professional, the patio should last for 40 years or more, and prospective buyers will likely recognize value in that longevity. Keep in mind that permanent patios like concrete slabs will likely raise property taxes, but the added value is usually well worth the investment.
In most cases, patios are an outstanding investment, typically providing a return on investment of between 80% and 90%. Patios provide a dedicated place to relax and entertain, so you and your family will enjoy them until you sell your home. Once you sell your home, buyers typically love to see patios and outdoor entertainment areas and may be willing to pay more for your home if your patio is well-maintained. The only thing to keep in mind is that patios may be a drawback if they take up too much of a small yard.
In many cases, you will need a building permit for your patio, but it depends on the type of patio. Generally speaking, any improvements to your land considered “permanent” will require a permit. Since a concrete patio is a permanent foundation, you will need a permit. On the other hand, a paver patio or flagstone patio usually sits over gravel and sand, are considered “temporary” improvements, and rarely require permits. To be safe, you should always ask your building department or your patio company if a permit will be necessary.
The size of your driveway apron will vary based on your town's building codes. On average, they range between 12 and 24 feet wide and eight to 15 feet long. One end of the apron usually matches the width of the driveway—10 to 12 feet wide for a single-car driveway—while the street end flares out to allow cars to turn in and out.
