Concrete & Driveways: details & planning
Concrete driveways, slabs, garage floors, and approaches in west-central Minnesota. Built for the freeze/thaw cycle. Free estimates.
Pricing: Driveways typically $8–$12 per square foot installed. Stamped or decorative finishes add $2–$5/sqft.
We pour concrete driveways, garage slabs, sidewalks, approaches, and patios across west-central Minnesota — from Osakis and Alexandria out to Fergus Falls and Long Prairie. Every pour gets proper base prep, control joints in the right places, and finishing that matches what the project actually needs.

Common questions
- How long until I can drive on a new concrete driveway?
- Light foot traffic at 24 hours, light vehicles at 7 days, full curing at 28 days. We mark and tape off the area until it's safe.
- Do you remove the existing driveway?
- Yes — full demo, haul-away, and base prep are included in the estimate. We bring the old material to a recycling facility, not a landfill, when feasible.
- What's the right thickness for a residential driveway?
- 4 inches over a 4–6 inch class-5 base for standard residential. Approaches that see heavier vehicles (RVs, equipment): 5–6 inches with rebar reinforcement.
- Stamped vs broom finish?
- Broom is the durable, low-maintenance default — best resale, hides surface wear. Stamped patterns look custom but show wear faster and need re-sealing every 2–3 years.
- Do I need a permit for a new driveway?
- Most townships and cities in Douglas, Todd, and Otter Tail counties don't require permits for residential driveways, but it varies. We check with the county before we start.
- Do you serve my area? I'm near Alexandria or Fergus Falls.
- Yes — we serve Osakis, Alexandria, Sauk Centre, Long Prairie, Fergus Falls, Perham, Glenwood, Carlos, Staples, Little Falls, and surrounding communities in Douglas, Todd, Otter Tail, and Stearns counties. Free site visit within the service area.
- What's a concrete driveway typically cost in west-central Minnesota?
- A standard residential driveway (20x40 ft, broom finish) runs $6,400–$9,600 installed. Stamped or decorative work adds $1,280–$3,200 on top of that. We provide a written line-item estimate after a free site walk.
- Do you offer any warranty on the work?
- 1-year workmanship warranty on all concrete pours. Covers cracking beyond normal control-joint behavior and finish defects. Material settlement due to soil movement is evaluated case-by-case.
