Concrete Driveway Installation in Wixom, MI
Wixom homes on rolling ground, with driveways sized for real life.
Wixom is a mix of newer residential streets and a lot of light-industrial and commercial property, and the homes here tend to sit on rolling ground. Many of the driveways were poured when the houses went up, sometimes quickly and on a base that was never fully compacted. Years later they show it, with settled corners, cracks that wander across panels and water sitting near the garage.

A Wixom driveway, built from the ground up
A new concrete driveway in Wixom begins with the subgrade. Glacial till here can be sandy in one spot and soft clay a few steps away, so we proof-roll it, dig out the weak pockets and build a thicker compacted 21AA base. Grade comes next, planned for how runoff moves across a rolling lot. We want it carried around the slab and out toward the street.
If a work truck or van comes home with you, tell us early. We ask about vehicle weight and size and thicken the slab where it'll carry the load. The mix is air-entrained, with rebar or fiber, control joints on a plan and a sealer before winter. The City of Wixom sets the permit requirements, and we'll explain what applies during your free estimate in Wixom.
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.
