Concrete Driveway & Patio Installation in Wayne County, MI
Close to the shop and deep in the clay: Wayne County is home ground.
Wayne County is where we live and work. Our shop is on Heyer Street in Romulus, and the towns we pour in most, Westland, Wayne, Garden City, Livonia, Canton and Plymouth, are all a short drive. We also cover Dearborn, Dearborn Heights, Inkster, Redford, Taylor, Allen Park, Northville, Belleville and Van Buren Township. Plenty of driveways and patios in these neighborhoods have been in place for decades and are ready to be torn out and poured new.
Most of eastern and central Wayne County sits on flat lake-plain clay, so drainage is the first problem we solve. We dig out the soft clay, build up compacted 21AA and plan every inch of slope. Out west in Canton, Plymouth, Belleville and Van Buren Township the ground turns to sandy outwash, and the hills around Northville bring glacial till. Each city or township runs its own permit process, and we'll walk you through yours.
We plan the slope from the garage to the street before any forms go in, and the compacted 21AA base is shaped to match. Even a small, steady fall moves water once it's built in from the bottom. You'll see the grade marked out before we pour.
We work in Westland, Wayne, Garden City, Livonia, Canton, Plymouth, Dearborn Heights, Romulus, Northville, Taylor, Belleville, Dearborn, Inkster, Redford, Van Buren Township and Allen Park. If you're nearby and don't see your town, call and ask.
It does. Short drives make it easier to fit in estimates and keep pour days on track when weather shifts. Spring still books up quickly, so an early call helps.
In most cases your city or township issues it through its building or zoning department. Work at the street can involve a separate right-of-way permit depending on who owns the road. We check what applies to your address.
Yes, and a full replacement is the best time to do it. We lay out the new width, check it against local rules and pour it as one slab. You end up with one continuous surface.
Usually, yes. We dig out the wet clay, build a deeper compacted base and pitch the patio away from the house. If water collects from neighboring yards, we'll talk about where it can go before we pour.
Across Metro Detroit, a new broom-finished driveway typically runs $12–$15 per square foot installed. Extra base work on wet clay and decorative finishes push that up. Your written quote comes after a free visit.
A little. Sandy outwash drains well, so the focus shifts to compaction, and we firm up the subgrade and the 21AA in thin lifts. The slope, the mix and the joints follow the same careful plan.
We use an air-entrained mix and give it a proper cure before cold weather. A sealer goes on before its first winter. Going easy on rock salt that first season helps the surface a lot.
Yes. Financing through Wisetack lets you see your options without affecting your credit score. Many homeowners use it to build the full patio they want in one season.
