Common Questions
How long should a concrete driveway last in Denver?
A properly installed concrete driveway in the Denver metro should hold up for 25–30 years with basic maintenance. The biggest variables are subbase preparation, the concrete mix design, and curing — and all three matter more in Colorado than in milder climates. Denver’s freeze-thaw cycles drive early cracking when any of those are done wrong. The surface needs to be air-entrained for outdoor applications, properly cured, and sealed. One thing most homeowners don’t hear: avoid de-icers with ammonium nitrate or ammonium sulfate — they’re hard on concrete. Sand is safer for the first couple of winters.
Do you pull permits?
Yes. We handle permitting where it’s required — which in the Denver metro includes many driveway replacements, any right-of-way work, and most commercial projects. We’re familiar with the requirements across the municipalities we work in and factor that into project planning from the start, not as an afterthought once work is underway.
