Concrete & Flatwork
Concrete flatwork is any surface poured which moves along a horizontal plane. Flatwork surfaces include patios, sidewalks, basements, driveways and every other flat surface. Concrete is the material of choice for flatwork because of how it can shape a flat and even surface perfectly.
Concrete Flatwork Cost
The cost of concrete flatwork is higher than any other paving substance like asphalt, but it pays off as long as it lasts. Concrete flatwork won’t need to be repaired as often and can remain over longer.

Multiple Flatwork Applications
Flatwork consists of a frame and a subsoil consisting of either rebar or aggregate material. The substructure should strengthen the concrete and prevent cracks from forming under pressure and age.
Sidewalks
- Sidewalks are a growing type of flatwork concrete. Sidewalks are poured in sections between them, with expansion joints. Sidewalks are finished flat and, when the surface is wet, can often have a slight finish to improve grip and protection.
Patios
- Concrete is a perfect choice of materials when building a patio because of the finishing painting and sealing you can do. Either with rebar or cement, concrete patios may be reinforced.
Driveways, RV Pads, Dumpster or Storage Pads
- Driveways are designed to withstand the heavy weight of cars and should have joints for expansion to prevent cracking. It is common to see cement driveways in houses as they are poured out with the home’s foundation.
*If you choose to use flatwork with pavers or bricks you’ll have to think about settling and movement. The concrete flatwork is more robust than the pavers to factors such as tree roots and rain damage.
