Aurora Concrete will send out a trained concrete specialist, review your needs and conduct a professional site evaluation.  A proposal will be drawn up and submitted promptly.  Upon acceptance of our proposal, Aurora Concrete will remove your existing driveway or area to be prepared and haul it to an authorized dumping location.  Aurora Concrete then will re-establish 4 inches of compacted base material.  We then frame the area to have concrete and set up rebar throughout the entire framed area.  (rebar is used in all our concrete pours)  The concrete is then poured 4 inches thick & expansion cuts are made.

     Life expectancy of  new concrete can be well over 20 years.  Aurora Concrete warranty for all concrete work is 1 year & excludes any cracking that might occur, petroleum staining and normal wear and tear. 

     Specialty concrete is also available.  Aurora Concrete can color the concrete, stamp the concrete and then add multiple colors to the concrete making it look realistic.   Below is a wide variety of different stamps available to you along with different colors available.  Aurora can combine patterns to even more distinct looks.  The options are endless.
