Frequently Asked Questions
The timeline for installing a concrete driveway can vary based on several factors, but here’s a general breakdown:
- Site preparation: 1-2 days
- Forming and pouring: 1 day
- Initial curing: 24-48 hours
- Full curing: 5-7 days
While you might be able to walk on your new driveway after 24-48 hours, we recommend waiting at least a week before driving on it. The entire process, from start to finish, typically takes about 7-10 days.
Factors that can affect the timeline include the size of your driveway, weather conditions, and any custom design elements. At Grand Prairie Concrete Pros, we’ll provide you with a detailed timeline specific to your project during our initial consultation.
Proper maintenance can significantly extend the life of your concrete driveway. Here are some key tips:
- Seal your driveway every 2-3 years to protect against stains and weather damage.
- Clean oil, gas, and other spills promptly to prevent staining.
- Avoid using de-icing chemicals in winter; use sand for traction instead.
- Clean your driveway regularly with a hose or pressure washer.
- Address any small cracks or damage quickly to prevent them from worsening.
By following these maintenance steps, your concrete driveway can look great and function well for decades. At Grand Prairie Concrete Pros, we’re always available to provide advice on maintaining your driveway or to perform professional maintenance services.
While it’s technically possible to pour concrete over asphalt, we generally don’t recommend this approach for several reasons:
- The asphalt can continue to deteriorate underneath, compromising the concrete’s stability.
- There may be drainage issues since the new concrete will be higher than the original grade.
- The longevity of the concrete may be reduced compared to a properly prepared base.
Instead, we recommend removing the existing asphalt and preparing a proper sub-base for your new concrete driveway. This ensures a stable foundation and allows us to address any underlying issues with the soil or drainage.
At Grand Prairie Concrete Pros, we can assess your current driveway and provide recommendations for the best approach to install a new concrete driveway that will last for years to come. We’ll consider factors like your property’s specific conditions, your budget, and your long-term goals to provide the best solution.
