Georgia's red clay swells when it's wet and shrinks when it dries. Pour a driveway straight onto it and the slab spends its whole life being pushed up and let down, which is why so many driveways across Coweta and Meriwether counties crack within a few years.
The fix starts before any concrete arrives. We strip the topsoil, grade for drainage, then bring in crushed stone and compact it in layers. That base spreads the load and gives water somewhere to go besides under your slab.
Reinforcement and thickness matter next. A driveway that carries trucks, trailers, or equipment needs more thickness and steel than a walkway. We size both to how you'll actually use it.
Finally, concrete will always crack somewhere, so we tell it where. Control joints cut at the right spacing and depth give the slab a clean, straight place to move. The result is a driveway that looks good for decades, not just the first summer.
