Concrete Driveway Installation in Novi, MI

A wider Novi driveway that still clears the HOA.

Novi's subdivisions are mostly newer, with bigger garages, longer driveways and HOAs that care what the front of the house looks like. A lot of our Novi calls start the same way: the family has more cars than the original builder planned for, the driveway is starting to crack and heave, and they'd like the new one wider. That's a good combination, because a full replacement is the cleanest moment to add width.

Driveway Installation in Novi

A Novi driveway, built from the ground up

The ground is rolling glacial till, so support under a Novi driveway can change from panel to panel. We proof-roll the subgrade, dig out soft spots and put back a thicker layer of compacted 21AA. Grade gets planned with the whole lot in mind, so runoff from the yard and the neighbor's slope is carried around the slab toward the street.

If the approach at the street is being replaced, the City of Novi's Engineering Division issues a Right-of-Way/Easement Permit, which asks for plans of the work and proof of insurance. We prepare that, and if your HOA reviews driveway changes, we put together the drawings and finish samples it asks for. Then we pour an air-entrained mix, cut the joints and seal it before winter.

Rolling glacial till under Novi

The hills of southern Oakland County, a mix of dense clay with pockets of sand and stone left by retreating glaciers.

Proof-roll the subgrade to find soft spots, replace them, build a thicker compacted base, and plan the grade so runoff is carried around the slab.
