Happy Concrete Driveway, Sidewalk, and front stoop Customer

Before hiring Professional Concrete of Georgia, I solicited bids from 8 contractors to replace my garage floor
, driveway, sidewalk, stoop, and front stairs. I wanted to ensure that I hired a company that would do the job right, charge a competitive fee, stand behind their work and leave me with a finished product I would be proud of for many years to come.
Brandon Sewell provided a comprehensive list of solutions for my concerns; showing me that Professional Concrete of Georgia had significant experience in all areas of my project. He offered ideas to improve the design and submitted an extremely comprehensive list of references, by project type, so I could contact those references I had the most in common with. From the day my concrete project began, I knew I had made the right decision. Professional Concrete of Georgia started “on the day scheduled” during a very rainy season late in 2009 when, I am sure, it would have been easier to push the start date out. Every individual that worked on my project was friendly and very hard working. Everyone treated my home like it was there own. All individuals were craftsmen in the work they performed. It was a thrill to watch them. I never once had any reservations or problems with the work being performed. Now that the project is finished, I have a home that I am very proud of and the neighbors are very jealous of. Professional Concrete of Georgia significantly improved the value of my home.

Being a concrete contractor in Georgia I often see folks who decide to have a driveway replacement project done and they jump into the project without getting a qualified contractor to bid correctly on the job. There are several 
steps to getting a great job done without being knocked off your feet by surprises. The first step to having a professional project completed by a qualified concrete contractor is:
Planning
The quality of the completed concrete driveway always begins with good planning. Spending time at this stage is always a wise decision that can help to eliminate possible problems later on. One of the first things to consider is size.
The suggested width for a single-car driveway is 8 to 9 feet. For double width, plan to use 15 to 18 feet. If the distance from the street to a two or more car garage is long enough, the initial entry approach can be of single-car width and then widened near the garage to accommodate all car stalls. If space is available, extra parking or a turn-around area can be included. Also, the planning stage is the time to consider adding that concrete patio or porch addition.
As for thickness, non-reinforced pavement 4 inches thick is standard for passenger car driveways. For heavier vehicles, a thickness of 5 inches is recommended. To eliminate standing water, the driveway should be sloped towards the street a minimum of 1%, or 1/8 inch per foot for proper drainage.
