Integral Color Vs. Surface Color Above, you will notice that this just looks like a chunk of broken concrete. If you look a little closer, you will see the surface of this concrete is colored different from the underlying concrete. In this case, a color hardner was applied to the concrete.  Well, if your concrete looks colored, it more than likely is. So, why this post? We wanted to discuss the difference in color when designing your new stamped concrete patio, walkway or driveway. There are many options to consider when thinking about or considering a new colored, stamped concrete install. We cover many options on our site about stamped and decorative concrete . But... we are still working on it. That's exactly why we decided to cover this particular subject. It seems that many times when our estimators are out in the field, they even have a tough time determining whether they are looking at integral colored concrete or concrete that has been colored with a hardener. Additionally,...

Denver Concrete Inc has partnered with Warmly Yours for electric heated driveways. We have yet to complete our entire video of this project from start to finish; however, we are working on it. In the meantime, we thought we would at least post on the project until the video is complete. Until then... Above, Denver Concrete Inc crew begins the project with demolition of the existing concrete driveway. Heated Concrete Driveway Project Denver Concrete Inc We were contacted by a homeowner right around the beginning of 2021 regarding a heated concrete driveway estimate. Heated concrete driveways are not a common thing, even in Denver. They are quite the investment and sometimes they cannot even be installed (due to restrictions with electrical). So each one of these projects has to be researched and planned for the best execution. With a heated driveway, there are a couple of different types of systems. For this project we elected to work with Warmly Yours. Why Warmly Yours? Warmly Yours He...

Pouring Concrete During Freezing Temperatures ABOVE, Castle Pines concrete driveway replacement from Denver Concrete Inc When March of 2020 happened, we did not know it, but we were about to begin the busiest season that Denver Concrete Inc has ever known. We are a newer company (although we are not new to concrete with over 50 years of combined experience), so this is our second "busy" season. Regardless, we could have never prepared for the onslaught of business that was about to come our way.  Busy season has definitely not stopped. Our crews are still as busy as they were in the height of busy season. We know that many concrete contractors start to slow down in the fall and winter, however, this is one of the best times to pour concrete in Colorado. Like many concrete contractors, Denver Concrete Inc does not pour in freezing temperatures so for this reason winter is not ideal some of the time.  The 2020 busy season has officially come to a close and we definitely had a f...

  ABOVE, Homeowner's stamped concrete walkway is entirely broken with tripping hazards of 1" - 4". In this particular case, our customer was trying to list their home for sale and liquidate as fast as possible. The homeowner's real estate agent strongly recommended repairing the broken and heaving concrete sidewalk. Not only was the sidewalk presenting a liability, but it would definitely provide some hesitation to potential buyers. Most potential homeowners do not want close on a new home only to inherit issues.  We have created a mini-site documenting the entire case, you can visit the site here . There we have created an entire case for this project.  If you have stamped concrete that needs to be replaced, repaired or rejuvenated, make sure to give one of the concrete experts at Denver Concrete Inc a phone call (303) 622-3191. A complete video of the project can be viewed below.

Westminster Driveway Replacement Westminster is a suburb of Denver located just north and west of Denver proper. Denver Concrete Inc has a large service area, and so we do get asked a lot if we service the outlying areas (mainly because of our name I think). The answer is, yes we do work all the way out in Boulder! Below is a map of our service areas . Denver Concrete Inc Service Areas So, with that being said, the average cost to replace a driveway in Denver is much different than Westminster. In Denver, there are permits and inspections that must be completed depending on the project. At the time that I write this, tearing out and replacing a driveway in Westminster does not require an inspection or permit from the city. In our experience the average cost to replace a driveway in Westminster Driveway Replacement Cost Westminster Driveway Size Price Sq/Ft 0 - 300 $10.00 301 - 500 $9.00 501 - 1,000 $8.25 ...

Concrete repair is almost always less expensive than tearing out existing concrete and replacing it. Repairs are temporary fixes in most cases, nonetheless regular concrete maintenance will definitely help you obtain the longest life out of your concrete driveway , walkway or patio. In this post we decided to cover what it would cost to repair a concrete driveway (make certain to visit our website for more information). How much does it cost to repair a driveway in Denver? This concrete walkway is cracking very badly, the crack needs to be routed and sealed, with some minor patch work as well. Of course we could not specifically say or state how much a repair would cost without looking at the project in person. It can be difficult to recommend the right service without actually looking at what kind of damage needs to be repaired. So regardless of not being able to see the project in person, here we are going to do our best to share "average concrete repair" pricing ...

If you have a concrete driveway or concrete patio in Denver, then you probably know what spalling or chipped concrete looks like. These types of concrete damage are caused by Colorado’s severe freeze and thaw cycles, not to mention here in Denver mag-chloride and other snow melting products can really erode the surface of concrete. Once this process begins it only worsens. If the concrete is in decent shape than it could be a candidate for concrete resurfacing . Concrete resurfacing or a concrete overlay is much thriftier than having to tear out and replace your concrete driveway or patio. It is important to note that concrete resurfacing is cosmetic and it is impossible to know how long an overlay will last.  ABOVE, concrete overlay applied to customer's walkway and driveway. This the same walkway and driveway before the overlay treatment. So, the success of your new overlay completely depends on the preparation of the existing concrete as well as the install...
