Concrete Driveways in Scarborough

Scarborough concrete driveways range from the older bungalow lots of Birch Cliff and Guildwood to the established streets of Agincourt, West Hill and Malvern.

Many of those bungalow driveways are original and have moved over the decades. A new surface poured over what is already there repeats the problem, so the old driveway comes out and the base gets rebuilt before anything is formed.

On the streets toward the Bluffs the lots slope, and on a concrete slab the level is set at the forming stage. We grade and form first, because it cannot be adjusted once the pour is done.

The Agincourt and West Hill lots are tighter, often close to the neighbouring drive. The forms follow what is actually there, and the edges are finished by hand where the machines cannot reach.

Full driveways and widenings are the bulk of what we pour here, and smaller pours get quoted too. On a tight lot it is usually worth doing the walkway or the apron at the same time rather than bringing a crew back for it later.

We handle concrete driveways across Scarborough — including Agincourt, Guildwood, West Hill, Malvern, and Birch Cliff, and the streets and properties around the Scarborough Bluffs, the Toronto Zoo, and Guild Park and Gardens.

Frequently asked questions

Concrete or asphalt — which driveway should I choose?
Concrete costs more up front, lasts longer, holds a clean edge, and never needs resealing. Asphalt is cheaper, faster to install, and easier to repair in sections. We install both, so we will tell you which one suits your site, your budget, and how you actually use the driveway instead of steering you to one.
How long before I can drive on a new concrete driveway?
Foot traffic is usually fine after 24 to 48 hours, and most driveways take passenger vehicles at around seven days. Concrete keeps gaining strength for weeks after that, so we ask you to keep heavy trucks, dumpsters, and equipment off it for the first month.
Will a concrete driveway crack?
Every concrete slab moves. The installer's job is to control where. We cut control joints at planned spacing so the slab relieves stress along a straight line you barely notice, rather than a random crack across the middle. Base prep and the right mix do the rest.
Do you take on smaller concrete work as well as full driveways?
Yes. Most of our concrete work is full driveways, widenings and larger installs, so that is what we are set up for and where our pricing is most competitive. Smaller pours, walkways and aprons get quoted too, and if you are already having other work done it usually makes sense to handle them at the same time. Tell us what you need and we will price it.
