Concrete work, done right in Reno
From a fresh driveway pour to lifting a sunken patio, the concrete contractors we connect you with handle the full range of residential and commercial concrete around the Truckee Meadows. Here's how a new pour comes together.
Prep the ground
The contractor forms the area, then excavates, grades, and compacts the base. On Reno's expansive, freeze-prone soil this step decides everything, good prep is what keeps a slab from cracking later.
Pour & reinforce
Rebar or wire mesh goes in where the load calls for it, then the ready-mix is placed to the right thickness for a driveway, patio, or floor, and screeded flat.
Finish & cure
The surface is floated, textured or stamped, and control joints are cut so it cracks where it should. Proper curing over the following days is what locks in the strength.
Not every job needs new concrete, though. When a slab has settled but is otherwise sound, leveling it back to grade is faster and cheaper than tearing it out; when a surface is worn or lightly cracked, resurfacing can bring it back. Whatever you're dealing with, the local contractor you're matched with will tell you straight which approach fits.

New driveway, stamped patio, a cracked walkway that needs replacing, or a settled slab that just needs lifting, you don't have to figure out the fix yourself. Tell us what's going on and we'll connect you with a local Reno concrete contractor who looks at it and quotes the work.

Why Reno is tough on concrete
The Truckee Meadows works against flat concrete in a few specific ways, which is exactly why prep and finish quality matter so much here. Three things drive most of it.
Expansive soils
Native valley soils swell when they take on moisture and shrink as they dry, heaving slabs up and dropping them unevenly across the seasons. Poorly-prepped driveways crack and garage floors tilt.
Spanish Springs · South Meadows · North ValleysFreeze-thaw at elevation
Water gets under a slab, freezes, expands, and carves out voids that leave concrete sitting low once it thaws. The higher and colder the ground, the harder this cycle hits.
Galena · ArrowCreek · Mount RoseSnowmelt & fill settling
Spring melt off the Sierra and Peavine washes fines out from under walks and patios, while backfill around newer homes keeps compacting for years after the build.
Somersett · Caughlin Ranch · Damonte Ranch
None of it means concrete is a bad choice here, it just means the work has to be done right. A properly prepped base, the correct slab thickness, and control joints in the right places are what separate concrete that lasts decades from concrete that fails in a few winters. And when an older slab has already settled, lifting it back to grade is usually the practical fix. It's all part of what the Reno contractors we connect you with do every week.
Concrete services in Reno
Whatever the concrete job, there's a local contractor for it. Here's what the Reno concrete contractors we connect you with handle most.
Concrete Driveways
New driveway pours and full replacements, from broom-finish to reinforced slabs built to handle Reno's freeze-thaw and vehicle weight.
Patios & Flatwork
Backyard patios and general flatwork poured, formed, and finished, giving you a flat, durable surface that drains away from the house.
Sidewalks & Walkways
New walkways and sidewalk sections, plus replacements for cracked or heaved concrete that's become a trip hazard.
Stamped & Decorative Concrete
Stamped and colored concrete that mimics stone, brick, or tile for patios, driveways, and walkways with real curb appeal.
Garage & Shop Floors
Garage and shop floor slabs poured level and strong, ready for vehicles, equipment, and daily wear.
Pool Decks
Pool deck pours and resurfacing with slip-resistant finishes and proper drainage around the water.
Concrete Leveling & Mudjacking
Sunken slabs lifted back to grade with mudjacking or foam instead of full replacement, for driveways, walks, and patios.
Repair & Resurfacing
Crack repair, resurfacing, and overlays that restore worn or damaged concrete without always needing a full tear-out.
Foundations & Footings
Foundation slabs, footings, and structural pours formed and placed to spec for additions, shops, and new builds.
What concrete work costs in Reno
Every project is different, so treat these as general ranges, not a quote. Your contractor prices the actual job after seeing the site, the prep it needs, and the finish you want.
Driveways & flatwork
A standard broom-finish concrete driveway commonly runs in the range of roughly $8 to $18 per square foot installed, with basic flatwork like patios and sidewalks often landing a bit lower for placement and finishing. Tear-out of an old slab typically adds a few dollars a foot on top.
Stamped & decorative
Stamped and colored concrete generally lands higher, commonly cited around $12 to $22 per square foot and up, because of the added forming, coloring, and finishing time. Pattern complexity and multi-color work push toward the top of the range.
Leveling & repair
When a slab just needs lifting rather than replacing, concrete leveling is usually a fraction of a new pour. Repairs and resurfacing vary widely with the damage. Most contractors also set a job minimum, so tiny jobs cost more per foot.
Here's the thing most quote pages skip: bigger jobs usually cost less per square foot, not more. The fixed costs, mobilizing the crew, forming, and equipment, get spread across more area on a large pour, which drops the per-foot price. A small slab can carry a higher per-foot rate for exactly that reason. On Reno's freeze-prone ground, it's also worth asking a contractor about base prep and slab thickness rather than shopping on price alone, since that's what decides whether the concrete lasts. For a real number on your project, call (775) 262-3187.
Replace, resurface, or level?
A lot of Reno homeowners assume cracked or sunken concrete means a full tear-out and new pour. Often it doesn't. The right call depends on what's actually wrong with the slab, and a good contractor will tell you the cheaper option when it fits instead of selling you a replacement you don't need.
If a slab has settled but is still solid, concrete leveling lifts it back to grade for a fraction of a new pour, and it's usable within a day or so. If the surface is worn, spalling, or lightly cracked but structurally fine, resurfacing or an overlay can give it a fresh face without replacing it. Full replacement makes sense when the slab is badly broken, heaved, or too far gone to save, or when you're changing the layout entirely. New decorative or stamped work is its own project, chosen for looks as much as function. The contractor you're matched with will walk the site and lay out which of these actually fits, so you're not guessing.

Old Southwest (Southwest Reno)
The tree-lined streets of the Old Southwest hold some of Reno's oldest homes, many dating to the 1920s and 1930s. Decades of mature root systems and original slab work mean settled walkways and sunken porch pads are common here.
Caughlin Ranch
Built into the southwest foothills around ponds and creek corridors like Whispering Pines, Caughlin Ranch sits on graded hillside fill. Slopes and seasonal water movement can leave driveway and patio slabs pitched over time.
Somersett
This master-planned community west of town spreads across roughly 6,000 acres of foothill open space near Mogul. Newer construction on engineered pads still settles as backfill around garages and walkways compacts in the first years.
ArrowCreek
A gated community high on the south foothills below Mount Rose, ArrowCreek homes sit at elevation where freeze-thaw cycles are sharper. That repeated freezing under slabs is a common driver of sidewalk and pool deck movement.
Galena / Mount Rose
Up toward the Mount Rose Highway, Galena sees heavier snow loads and longer freeze periods than the valley floor. Meltwater working under driveway slabs is a frequent cause of the voids that leave concrete sitting low. Looking for Galena concrete contractors? Call (775) 262-3187 and we'll connect you with a local contractor.
Verdi
Verdi grew up in the late 1860s around the Central Pacific Railroad and its logging mills along the Truckee. Properties near the river corridor deal with looser alluvial soils that let patios and walkways settle unevenly.
Damonte Ranch
Development here began in the early 2000s on former irrigated ranch land, with trails winding through protected wetlands. Slabs poured over that reworked agricultural ground and old water channels can settle as the fill consolidates. Looking for concrete driveways in Damonte Ranch? Call (775) 262-3187 and we'll connect you with a local contractor.
South Meadows
A fast-growing family corridor near the South Reno employment centers, South Meadows sits on the valley's southern flat. Expansive soils that swell and shrink with moisture leave driveways and garage floors uneven over the years.
Double Diamond
Just north of Damonte Ranch, Double Diamond is a dense 1990s-and-later community on the old ranch land below the Mount Rose fan. Compaction settling under walkways and patios is a routine issue for homes of that era.
Virginia Foothills
Perched on the slopes east of South Virginia Street, this established area mixes older custom homes on graded lots. Hillside cut-and-fill pads are prone to differential settling that tips driveway and sidewalk sections.
Donner Springs
A settled southeast Reno neighborhood near Donner Springs Elementary, this area's 1970s and 1980s slabs have had decades to move. Sunken front walks and settled patio pads are the usual concrete complaints here.
Hidden Valley
Tucked against the hills southeast of town near Huffaker, Hidden Valley blends horse properties and mid-century homes. The mix of native clay and slope means patios and garage aprons often need lifting back to grade.
Mira Loma
This southeast pocket off McCarran holds tidy postwar and later tract homes. Aging driveway slabs and settled sidewalk panels are common as the original subgrade compacts under decades of use.
Midtown
Reno's walkable arts district south of downtown is packed with older bungalows and converted storefronts. Original early-1900s sidewalks and interior slab floors here frequently sit low after a century of ground movement.
Downtown / Riverwalk District
Along the Truckee near the historic Reno Arch, the Riverwalk district mixes old commercial slabs with residential lofts. Proximity to the river and old fill under sidewalks make settling a recurring problem. Looking for concrete contractors in Downtown Reno? Call (775) 262-3187 and we'll connect you with a local contractor.
University District (UNR area)
Around the University of Nevada campus north of downtown, dense older housing sits on some of the city's earliest developed ground. Century-old walkways and porch slabs commonly need lifting rather than full replacement.
Old Northwest
The established northwest streets below Peavine hold mature homes with original concrete work. Decades of settling and root pressure leave uneven driveways and heaved sidewalk sections throughout the area.
Northwest Reno
Spreading up toward Peavine Mountain, Northwest Reno mixes newer subdivisions with hillside lots. Graded pads and drainage off the mountain can undermine driveway and walkway slabs over time. Looking for Northwest Reno concrete patios? Call (775) 262-3187 and we'll connect you with a local contractor.
Stead
Stead grew around the former Stead Air Force Base, which drove Reno's postwar boom. Slabs across this north-valley area sit on high-desert soils where seasonal moisture swings drive settling and voids.
Lemmon Valley
Once the town of Peavine, Lemmon Valley started as housing overflow for Stead base workers. The valley's known drainage and standing-water issues make void formation under slabs an ongoing concern here.
Cold Springs
This far north-valley community sits on open high-desert ground off US 395. Loose native soils and freeze-thaw at elevation leave driveways and garage floors settling unevenly.
Northeast Reno / Sun Valley
Sun Valley boomed after World War II with mobile homes and modest tract housing north of Reno. Aging slabs on unengineered older subgrade here are frequent candidates for leveling.
Northgate
A northwest-valley neighborhood below Peavine's slopes, Northgate mixes tract homes on graded ground. Hillside runoff and compaction settling leave sidewalks and driveways low over time.
Spanish Springs
This fast-grown valley northeast of Sparks sits at about 4,500 feet on broad high-desert flats. Expansive valley soils that move with moisture make driveway and patio settling a common issue for its newer homes. Looking for concrete services in Spanish Springs? Call (775) 262-3187 and we'll connect you with a local contractor.
Wingfield Springs (Sparks border)
A master-planned golf community on the Sparks-Spanish Springs edge, Wingfield Springs was built largely on engineered fill. Backfill settling around garages and walkways is typical as those pads finish compacting.
Kiley Ranch
One of the newer master-planned areas straddling the north Sparks border, Kiley Ranch sits on reworked ranch land. Fresh subgrade under driveways and patios can settle in the first years after construction.
Reno concrete FAQ
How much does a concrete driveway cost in Reno?
It depends on size, thickness, finish, and whether an old slab needs removing, but a standard broom-finish driveway commonly runs somewhere around $8 to $18 per square foot installed. Stamped or decorative finishes cost more. Your contractor gives you a real number after seeing the site.
Do I need to replace my concrete or can it be repaired?
Often it can be saved. A settled but solid slab can be leveled back to grade; a worn or lightly cracked surface can sometimes be resurfaced. Full replacement is for slabs that are badly broken or heaved. A contractor will tell you which fits your slab.
How long does new concrete take to cure?
You can usually walk on new concrete within a day or so and drive on it after about a week, though it keeps gaining strength for weeks. Your contractor will give you exact timelines for your pour and the Reno weather at the time.
What's the best time of year to pour concrete in Reno?
Late spring through early fall is ideal, since pouring in hard freezes or extreme heat complicates curing. Good contractors pour year-round with the right precautions, but they'll advise on timing for your specific job.
Do you handle both residential and commercial concrete?
Yes. The Reno contractors we connect you with pour and repair residential driveways, patios, walkways, and floors, along with commercial flatwork, foundations, and larger slabs.
What area around Reno do you serve?
The whole Truckee Meadows, from the southwest foothills and Old Southwest to South Reno, the north valleys, and the Sparks and Spanish Springs border. If you're near Reno, call and we'll sort it out.
