Driveways, Sidewalks & More
Installing a new driveway or replacing an existing one is a high-impact improvement that increases curb appeal, improves function, and adds long-term value to your property. At L 5 Concrete & Construction, we specialize in durable, attractive driveways tailored to your site, budget, and design preferences.
Why replace or install a new driveway?
Damaged concrete (cracks, spalling, settling) creates safety hazards and accelerates deterioration.
Upgrading materials or design boosts curb appeal and can increase property value.
Modern drainage and base preparation prevent future problems and minimize maintenance.
New driveways allow you to choose finishes— broom, exposed aggregate, stamped, or decorative overlays.
Our process
Site assessment and consultation
We evaluate existing conditions, access, drainage, grade, and soil.
Discuss material options, finishes, color choices, edge details, and project timeline.
Provide a clear, itemized estimate and recommended thickness and reinforcement based on use (residential passenger vehicles vs. RVs/ heavy equipment).
Permits and preparation
We handle necessary local permits and coordinate any utility locates.
Remove existing driveway materials when required, dispose responsibly, and prepare a stable subgrade with proper compaction.
Install compacted aggregate base to prevent settling and provide drainage.
Forming and reinforcement
Set precise forms and slope for proper water runoff away from structures.
Place reinforcement (rebar or welded wire mesh) based on load requirements and local code recommendations.
Pouring and finishing
Pour concrete to the specified thickness and finish per your selection: broom, smooth, exposed aggregate, stamped, colored, or sealed.
Control joints cut at ACI recommended intervals to minimize cracking.
Apply appropriate curing methods to achieve full strength and durability.
Sealing, cleanup, and final inspection
Apply sealers if specified to protect color and surface.
Clean the site and inspect with you to ensure satisfaction.
Provide maintenance recommendations and warranty information.
Material options and considerations
Standard concrete: Durable, low maintenance, customizable with color and finish.
HD Reinforced concrete: Recommended for heavy loads (RVs, trailers).
Install geotextile fabric or compacted aggregate base to prevent settling and provide drainage.
Decorative concrete: Stamping or exposed aggregate for a high-end look that mimics stone, brick, or pavers.
Custom Color
Thickness and load guidance
Residential passenger vehicles: typically 4 inches with #10 wire mesh.
