Concrete driveways in Coeur d'Alene
A new or replacement concrete driveway is one of the biggest concrete jobs most homeowners take on, and one of the longest-lasting when it's poured properly. Most replacements include breaking out and hauling away the old slab, regrading and compacting the base, forming, pouring and finishing.

Coeur d'Alene winters bring real snow, ice and freeze-thaw, followed by wet spring storms.
Snow, ice and de-icer cause most of the flaking you see on North Idaho driveways. Air-entrained concrete and a sealer make a real difference.
Work in the street right-of-way needs City of Coeur d'Alene approval. Ask your contractor to confirm before you book.
Common questions
How thick should a driveway be?
Four inches is common for cars; five to six inches is better if you park trucks, trailers or an RV on it.
Should I seal a new driveway?
Most contractors recommend a penetrating sealer after it cures, then every few years, especially where winters bring freeze-thaw and de-icer.
How long before I can drive on a new driveway?
Usually about a week for a car, longer for anything heavy. Your contractor will tell you for your mix and the weather.
