Concrete Driveway Installation & Repair

Expert Driveway Installation Services

Your driveway serves as the primary entrance to your property and endures constant stress from vehicle traffic, weather extremes, and daily use. At Clearstone Somerville Concrete, we specialize in professional driveway installation that combines structural integrity with aesthetic appeal. Our process begins with thorough site evaluation and preparation, including proper excavation, grading, and base compaction to prevent future settling. We install reinforcement where needed and use high-quality concrete mixes engineered for durability in New England's challenging climate. Whether you need a residential driveway for your Somerville home or a commercial installation, our experienced team delivers results built to last.

Comprehensive Driveway Repair Solutions

Even the best-constructed driveways eventually require maintenance or repair. We offer comprehensive repair services including crack filling, joint sealing, surface leveling, and partial replacement. Our technicians assess the underlying cause of damage, whether from settling, tree roots, or freeze-thaw cycles, and recommend the most effective repair approach. Minor cracks can often be addressed through professional crack repair and sealing, while more extensive damage may require section replacement or complete resurfacing. We match existing concrete as closely as possible and ensure proper bonding between old and new material for seamless repairs.

Why Choose Professional Installation

Professional driveway installation requires specialized knowledge, equipment, and experience that goes far beyond simply pouring concrete. Proper base preparation prevents settling and cracking, adequate reinforcement provides structural strength, and correct finishing techniques ensure a durable, attractive surface. Our team understands local soil conditions, drainage requirements, and building codes specific to Somerville and surrounding communities. We use commercial-grade equipment for precise grading and finishing, and implement proven curing methods that allow concrete to achieve maximum strength. The result is a driveway that performs reliably for decades with minimal maintenance.

Key Benefits

• Durable construction designed for heavy vehicle traffic and harsh weather conditions

Maintenance and Longevity

A properly installed concrete driveway can last 30 years or more with appropriate maintenance. Regular sealing every 2-3 years protects against moisture penetration, staining, and surface damage. Prompt repair of minor cracks prevents them from expanding and causing more extensive damage. We recommend periodic cleaning to remove oil stains, de-icing chemicals, and debris that can degrade the surface over time. Our team provides detailed maintenance guidance with every installation and offers ongoing maintenance services to keep your driveway looking and performing its best.
