Residential Flatwork Concrete — Fargo, ND & Surrounding

What we offer

• Driveways: Standard and decorative finishes, broom, exposed aggregate, or stamped overlays.

• Sidewalks & Walkways: Smooth, slip-resistant finishes with control joints to minimize cracking.

• Patios & Slabs: Level, properly drained patios with options for color and texture.

• Repairs & Resurfacing: Crack repair, leveling, and overlay systems that restore appearance and function.

Price & Value

• Typical price range:

  • Small sidewalks or slabs: $6–$12 per sq ft.

  • Standard driveways (single-car): $8–$15 per sq ft.

  • Decorative finishes or stamped work: add $4–$10 per sq ft depending on complexity.

  • Repairs or overlays: priced per job; most small repairs start around $250.

• What price includes: excavation, proper subgrade compaction, gravel base, formwork, concrete placement, finishing, control joints, sealing (if chosen), and clean-up. No hidden fees; we provide clear written estimates.

• Value proposition: We focus on right-first-time installation — proper base, reinforcement, and drainage reduce long-term maintenance and costly replacements. Upfront investment pays off through longevity and curb appeal.

Length of Service & Durability

• Typical lifespan: 25–50+ years for well-built flatwork in Fargo’s freeze-thaw climate when installed with proper subbase, air-entrained concrete, and adequate jointing.

• Warranty: Workmanship warranty on most installations (details on estimate); many materials carry manufacturer guarantees.

• Maintenance: Minimal—occasional sealing every 3–5 years, joint resealing, and basic crack monitoring extend life. We advise seasonal care for deicing salts and snow removal practices that protect the surface.

Why our flatwork is unique

• Climate expertise: Local experience with Fargo’s freeze-thaw cycles ensures correct mix designs (air-entrainment), subbase depth, and drainage solutions to prevent heaving and scaling.

• Attention to prep: We prioritize proper excavation, compaction, and reinforcement so finished concrete performs under real-world loads and conditions.

• Custom finishing options: From clean broom finishes to colored, stamped, or exposed aggregate surfaces tailored to your home’s style.

• Clear communication: Detailed, written estimates, timeline, and on-site supervision so projects finish on schedule with no surprises.

• Local, trusted crew: with repeat customers across the city — we stand behind our work.

Typical project timeline

• Small repairs: 1 day to assess and complete.

• New sidewalks or small slabs: 1–2 days for installation; full cure in 7 days for light use, 28 days for full strength.

• Driveways and larger patios: 2–4 days on site depending on size and finishing; scheduling accounts for proper curing and weather windows.

How we calculate an estimate

• Factors considered: square footage, thickness, concrete strength, reinforcement (fiberglass or steel rebar), subbase depth and material, finish type, site access, demolition or curb removal, and any decorative additives.

• We provide line-item estimates so you see where costs apply and can choose upgrades or budget options.

Requesting an estimate

• We recommend including your project type, dimensions (approx.), desired finish, and any access or demolition concerns when you contact us.
