Concrete Driveway Installation in Canton, MI
Sandy ground, HOA rules, and a slab that stays level under the truck.
Canton sits on sandy outwash, which drains much better than the clay in eastern Wayne County. Frost heave is less of a worry here. The trouble with sand is settling: if the base isn't compacted properly, a slab sinks at the corners and along the tire tracks, and you'll see it first where the heaviest vehicle parks.

A Canton driveway, built from the ground up
So on a Canton driveway we compact in lifts, build a full-depth aggregate base, and thicken the slab where a pickup, trailer or RV will sit. Much of Canton was built from the 1980s on, and many subdivisions have HOA rules on driveway width and finish. We build to those rules, and HOA approval comes first where deed restrictions require it.
Canton Township issues a compliance permit for residential concrete flatwork, with a forms inspection before the pour. Township rules keep concrete out of easements, limit paving to half of the front or rear yard and cap a driveway on a Wayne County road at 26 feet wide at the sidewalk. We'll sort out which of those apply to your lot during the free estimate.
Sand and gravel laid down by glacial meltwater along the Rouge and Huron rivers, from Plymouth and Canton down to Belleville and Ypsilanti.
Compaction done in lifts, a full-depth aggregate base, and a thicker section anywhere a truck, trailer or RV will park.
