Cracked and settled slabs usually come from a base that washed out or was never compacted. We saw out the failed section, rebuild the base, and pour back with rebar tied in. Sunken slabs can often be lifted instead. Resurfacing works when the slab is sound underneath.
A concrete driveway holds up when the subgrade is right. We pour four inches for cars, thicker where a truck parks or turns, over compacted base with wire mesh or rebar. Control joints go in early, cut before the concrete tells us where it wants to crack.
Patios are where stamped and colored concrete earn their keep, and exposed aggregate holds traction when wet. We slope everything away from the house, usually a quarter inch per foot, so water leaves instead of pooling at the door. Steps, landings and walkways get poured the same trip.
Savannah is a city of 147,898 people, and our work runs out along its streets in every direction, through the neighborhoods inside the city and onto the roads leading past the limits. We pour flatwork across all of it on the same terms. A driveway on a lane barely wide enough for the mixer gets the same crew, the same base prep and the same finish as a commercial slab on an open lot. What distance changes is how we schedule a pour. It changes nothing about how the concrete gets built.
The median home here was built in 1971, and that one number accounts for most of what we are called out to look at. Concrete of that age has usually had its full run: aprons cracked clean through, sidewalk panels lifted at the joints, a garage slab that dropped a corner and stayed there. Some of it went down over wire mesh, some over nothing at all. We break it out, see what the base is actually made of, and rebuild that before any new concrete arrives.
Median home value in Savannah is $225,200, and median household income is $56,782 against a Georgia median of $74,664. We keep that in front of us. Most people who call are not starting a project. They have one thing that has gotten bad enough to catch a toe or hold water, and they want it dealt with. So we price what you asked about. If the driveway is done and the front walk has two more years in it, we will say the walk has two more years in it.
Permitting inside the city runs through the City of Savannah, and pulling it is our job, not the homeowner's. It matters most on anything touching the public right of way: a driveway apron, a curb cut for a new drive, sidewalk installation in the strip between walk and curb. Those carry requirements on width, slope, thickness and finish that nobody gets to negotiate around. We build to what the permit says, keep the rebar and wire mesh where the drawing puts it, and stay on site through inspection.
What we drive for is the ordinary run of concrete work:
Site access decides more about a pour than the address ever does. Some lots let the truck back within a few feet of the forms and the whole load goes straight down the chute. Others mean a pump, a long wheelbarrow run, plywood over the lawn and enough hands to place and finish before the mix stiffens. We walk the site before we set a date, in Savannah and in Pooler alike, because ready-mix runs on its own clock and everything has to be staged when it shows. Call for a free estimate.
