Concrete
Poured concrete patios, sidewalks, slabs, and steps — engineered bases, clean forms, and durable finishes that stand up to Virginia’s freeze-thaw winters.
Overview
Concrete fails from the bottom up — a poor base, missing reinforcement, or joints cut in the wrong place lead to the cracking and heaving you see on neglected driveways everywhere. Every Heritage pour starts with excavation and a compacted aggregate base, adds the right reinforcement for the load, and finishes with properly placed control joints and curing. The result is flatwork that stays flat, whether it’s a backyard patio, a front walk, or a garage slab.
New pours and full replacements — patios, front walks, garage and shed slabs, and pads for HVAC or hot tubs, all formed and finished clean.
Formed concrete steps and landings built to code riser heights, with solid footings that won’t settle away from the house.
Broom, exposed aggregate, and stamped patterns with integral color — the durability of concrete with the look of stone.
Perfect For These Situations
Professional concrete work replaces cracked, settled, and unsafe surfaces with clean, durable flatwork.
Old walks and slabs that have cracked, settled, or heaved into trip hazards — removed, re-based, and poured right.
Slabs, pads, and walkways for garages, sheds, additions, and pool surrounds — coordinated with your builder’s schedule.
A crisp new front walk and steps transform a home’s entrance for a fraction of a full landscape renovation.
Compacted aggregate base and steel reinforcement matched to the load — patio, sidewalk, or vehicle-rated.
Every surface pitched to move water away from your foundation, with drains integrated where grades demand it.
Straight edges, consistent finishes, and control joints placed where the slab wants to crack — not wherever’s convenient.
Our Approach
Assess the existing surface and grades, measure the pour, and provide a clear, itemized estimate.
Old concrete broken out and hauled off; excavation to depth for base and slab thickness.
Aggregate base compacted, forms set to grade and pitch, reinforcement placed and tied.
Concrete placed, screeded, and finished — broom, exposed aggregate, or stamped — with control joints cut.
Proper curing time protected, forms stripped, site cleaned, and a final walkthrough with care guidance.
Common Questions
Standard broom-finish flatwork typically runs $8–$15 per square foot; stamped and decorative finishes range higher. Demolition of existing concrete, access, and thickness affect price — your itemized estimate spells out every line before work begins.
Foot traffic is fine after 24–48 hours, and vehicles after about 7 days. Concrete reaches its full design strength at 28 days — we’ll give you a simple timeline at the walkthrough.
All concrete wants to crack as it cures — the craft is controlling where. Proper base compaction, reinforcement, and correctly placed control joints direct that movement into clean, straight lines instead of random cracks across the surface.
Concrete offers a lower installed cost and a clean, monolithic look; pavers offer more design flexibility and stone-by-stone repairability. We install both, so we’ll recommend what genuinely fits your project and budget rather than pushing one product.
