Learn MoreThree straightforward steps from first call to finished project.
You reach out with your project - what needs to be done, where, and roughly when. We will respond within 1 business day to ask a few questions and schedule a free on-site visit. No guessing, no phone estimates - we come see your property before quoting anything.
We visit your property, measure, check drainage and soil conditions, and look at what is there now. You receive a written estimate that breaks down every part of the project - materials, labor, permits - so you know exactly what you are paying for before you say yes.
We pull any required permits, show up on time, and complete the work. After the pour, we walk you through the curing process and maintenance steps specific to your project. You get a finished surface built for the long term - not just inspected and left.
What you actually get when you hire us - not what we hope you notice.
We carry full general liability and workers compensation on every project. We provide proof of insurance before any work begins - no need to ask twice.
We come to your property before quoting anything. You get a written, itemized estimate within 1 business day of the visit - no pressure, no follow-up calls.

"They started when they said they would, which I cannot say about the last contractor I hired. The driveway looks great and they explained the curing process before they left so I knew exactly what to do."
David R., Portland - Concrete driveway building
"The patio was done in two days and they left the yard cleaner than they found it. I had a question about sealing after they left and someone called back the same afternoon."
Sarah M., South Portland - Concrete patio construction
"I wanted stamped concrete to match the older look of the house and they walked me through the pattern options until we found something that actually fit. The finished result blends right in with the neighborhood."

The most common questions we hear - answered plainly.
Portland goes through more than 100 freeze-thaw cycles a year. Water enters tiny surface pores, freezes, expands, and forces the concrete apart - a little more each cycle. Concrete built with the right base, thickness, and air-entrained mix handles this stress far better.
Yes - salt that washes off city roads accelerates surface deterioration, especially in the first few years. Sealing your concrete about 30 days after the pour and resealing every two to three years is the single most effective way to slow that damage.
Reliably, late May through September. Concrete that freezes before it cures is permanently weakened. The best contractors book up fast in spring - reaching out in March or April gives you the best scheduling options.
Both are viable, but concrete typically lasts 30 to 50 years compared to 20 to 30 for asphalt. Concrete holds up better under repeated freeze-thaw cycles when installed with proper base prep - a meaningful factor in a Maine winter.
Cracks wider than a quarter inch, cracks spreading in a spiderweb pattern, and sections that have shifted vertically all signal base failure. At that point, repairs are a short-term fix and replacement is the more cost-effective answer.
Usually yes - driveways that connect to a city street and patios above a certain size require a permit from Portland's Public Works or Inspections Division. A reputable contractor handles this for you. Unpermitted work can create problems when you sell your home.

Learn more about usIf cracks are wider than a quarter inch, sections have shifted vertically, or the surface is spalling over a large area, replacement is usually the more cost-effective answer. Patching works for isolated, shallow damage.
Four inches is the minimum for standard passenger vehicles. If you park trucks, RVs, or heavy equipment, five to six inches is the right call. Thickness is one of the most important quality indicators - ask your contractor directly.
Concrete that freezes before it cures is permanently weakened. Even a brief frost in the first 24 to 48 hours after a pour can reduce the slab's long-term strength. Experienced Portland contractors watch the forecast closely and will reschedule rather than risk a bad pour.

Portland is Maine's largest city, with a population of around 68,000 and a dense, walkable core that runs from the Old Port waterfront district to hilltop neighborhoods like Munjoy Hill. The city's compact streets and small lots - laid out in the 1800s - mean concrete contractors need to work carefully to avoid disrupting neighbors and traffic.
Most of Portland's homes were built before 1960, with large clusters of Victorian-era houses in the West End and on Munjoy Hill. Many of these properties still have original concrete driveways and walkways that are decades overdue for replacement. Fieldstone and brick foundations are also common in the older housing stock, particularly along Deering Center and Woodfords Corner. Portland averages about 61 inches of snow per year, and the repeated freeze-thaw cycles through the winter months put more stress on concrete than most other climates in the country.
Custom Portland Concrete has worked on properties throughout Portland's neighborhoods - from tight lots in Parkside and East Bayside to larger yards in Deering Highlands. We understand how the city's permitting process works and what Maine winters demand from a well-built concrete surface. When you're ready to talk through your project, we're available 24/7.
