Typical Houston project
Spring Branch driveway replacement
Typical Houston project. Before: a 1980s two-car driveway in Spring Branch with heaved panels and a crack across the approach.
After: tear-out on day 1, a compacted base and #3 rebar on 18-inch centers on day 2, then a new 4-inch broom-finish slab with saw-cut joints. Cars go back on it after 7 days. Typical cost for 20 × 20 ft with tear-out: $4,000–$8,000.
Built for Houston
Built for Houston Clay Soil
Most of the Houston metro sits on Beaumont clay, the dense gumbo that swells after a storm and shrinks in an August dry spell. A slab poured straight onto it moves with it. Our standard flatwork spec is built around that movement:
Heat is the other variable. From June through September we start pours at first light, dampen the subgrade, and keep the surface wet or under curing compound so it does not dry out before it gains strength. When the forecast shows a heavy rain band, we move the pour date. These are typical ranges; your engineer's plans govern when a project has them. Conditions by neighborhood are on our Houston concrete services page.

How much does it cost to pour a concrete slab in Houston?
A basic reinforced concrete slab in Houston typically costs $7–$12 per sq ft installed. A 12 × 16 ft shed pad lands around $1,350–$2,300, and going to 6 inches thick adds $2–$3 per sq ft.
How much is a 20×20 concrete driveway in Houston?
A 20 × 20 ft (400 sq ft) broom-finish driveway in Houston typically costs $3,200–$5,600. Removing an old driveway first adds $800–$2,400.
How long does a concrete driveway last in Houston?
Industry figures put a well-built concrete driveway at 25–30 years of typical service life. On Houston clay, base prep, rebar and drainage decide where in that range a driveway ends up.
How thick should a driveway or patio be?
Most Houston driveways and patios are 4 inches thick with rebar. Pads for trucks, trailers or RVs go to 6 inches.
How do I keep concrete from cracking in Houston clay?
You control where concrete cracks rather than stop it: a compacted base, rebar centered in the slab and control joints every 8–10 ft keep cracks small and in straight lines. Sloping the slab so water runs off keeps the clay underneath from softening.
What should a concrete estimate include?
A concrete estimate should list demolition, base, slab thickness, rebar size and spacing, concrete strength in PSI, finish and joint layout as separate lines. Ours is written that way, so you can compare quotes line by line.
What areas of Houston do you serve?
We serve Houston inside and outside the Loop and the suburbs across Harris, Fort Bend and Montgomery counties, from Katy and Cypress to Pearland and The Woodlands.
