Concrete Driveway Installation in Wayne, MI
Flat clay, post-war lots, and a slope you can actually see.
Wayne is mostly post-war houses on dead-flat lake-plain clay, and after a summer storm you can tell which driveways were poured with a real slope and which ones weren't. The puddle at the garage, the green stain along the side of the slab, the soft spot by the downspout: all of it comes back to water with nowhere to go. A new driveway in Wayne has to fix that first, before anyone talks about finishes.

A Wayne driveway, built from the ground up
So we start with a level and a string line. We measure the fall from your garage floor to the street, then dig out the wet clay and rebuild the ground with compacted 21AA in lifts. That base gets shaped to the final grade, so the concrete sits at an even thickness and the slope is built in from below. Reinforcement, an air-entrained mix and control joints come next.
Our shop is in neighboring Romulus, which puts most Wayne addresses a few minutes from our yard. We'll come out, measure, and give you a written quote with the work spelled out line by line. We'll also check what the City of Wayne requires for your driveway and approach. Financing through Wisetack is available if you'd like to spread the cost out.
Flat, slow-draining clay left behind by the glacial lakes that once covered most of Wayne County.
Dig out the soft clay, replace it with compacted 21AA aggregate base, and set the slope so water runs off the slab and away from the house.
