Ways to save in Newton

  • Stay with a 4-inch broom finish and spend the savings on proper base prep.
  • Keep the driveway rectangular; curves and borders add forming labor.
  • Combine your pour with a neighbor to share the truck and crew mobilization.
  • Pour in spring or fall — summer schedules are booked and priced higher.
  • Resurface rather than replace if the slab is structurally sound.
