Cost Estimate Details

A concrete driveway replacement, installation, or extension is quite a large project, and it’s important that you have a clear understanding of what is included in the estimate and what may lead to additional costs from the driveway company doing the work. Our concrete driveway project estimator is designed to give you a clear idea of the services and materials included, so you are thoroughly informed about every aspect of your concrete driveway project.

Included in this Replacement Estimate

  • Prep Work: Site preparation and moderate grading work to assure it’s level, drains properly and is free of all grass and debris.
  • Concrete and Supplies: All material costs like the concrete, rebar and reinforcement wire, and concrete forms, as well as delivery to your jobsite.
  • Installation Labor: Labor costs for all work performed in the preparation, forming, pouring and finishing the concrete surface.
  • Removal and Disposal: If you are replacing a driveway, the estimated cost will include demolition, removal and disposal of the old driveway.
  • Jobsite Cleanup: All cleanup of the forms and debris after they have been removed as well as basic site cleanup to the yard area around the edges of the new concrete.

  • Extensive Site Work: The clearing or removal of big trees, large rocks, or existing structures.
  • Utility Work: Relocating underground utilities like gas, water, or electrical lines to accommodate the new driveway.
  • Permits and HOA Covenants: It is usually the homeowners responsibility to assure they can install a driveway. If you have an HOA, it’s also your responsibility to assure you comply with covenants that may apply.
  • Landscaping Repairs: While some light grading is generally included, it does not include bringing in new topsoil or reseeding the area that was disturbed during the installation.

Estimate for These Driveway Projects

Our concrete driveway cost calculator is designed to help you get an estimate for the following types of driveway projects.

New Concrete Driveways

With an average cost between $7.50 to $11 per square foot installed, our estimator factors in site preparation, all materials, labor costs, and finishing work to install a new concrete driveway at your home. This can be over an existing gravel drive or removing the topsoil to the right depth, adding gravel, forming and pouring a new driveway.

Concrete Driveway Replacement

Calculate the estimated cost of replacing your old concrete driveway when it’s cracked, worn out, outdated or you just want to refresh your homes curb appeal.  This involves removing the old driveway and disposing of it. Preparing the site by assuring it’s level, forming and pouring the new concrete, and finishing the surface. When removing your old driveway is factored in, the cost range increases to $9.25 to $14 per square foot.

Extending or Adding-On to your Existing Driveway

Our cost estimator helps you determine the cost of extending or adding onto your existing concrete driveway for an additional parking space, or a place to store your RV or trailer. With a cost between $8 to $12 per square foot, it’s actually a bit higher due to the work involved in matching it and securing the slab to the existing driveway. We include costs for site preparation, matching the new concrete to existing surfaces as closely as possible and all labor costs to extend the driveway.
