Concrete Driveways & Patios in Moorestown, NJ
Moorestown Township, Burlington County. Family-owned, licensed and insured, and self-performing every stage of the work since 1979.
We build and replace concrete driveways, patios and walks across Moorestown Township, from older homes near Main Street to long private drives on estate-sized parcels. Mature trees lift slabs, clay soils hold water, and established landscaping limits access. We plan around all three, build on a compacted base, and finish work that suits the property.

Long private driveways are their own category
Larger parcels toward the east side of the township often have long private driveways, sometimes curving through trees from the road to the house. A long drive is a different project from a suburban driveway: drainage has to be managed along its length so water doesn't run its full distance to the garage, the base must be consistent from end to end, and the work is usually phased so the house stays accessible.
We plan pitch to shed water off the sides at intervals and lay out control joints so the finished drive looks deliberate along its whole length.
Roots and slabs
Moorestown's mature canopy is beautiful and hard on concrete. Roots spread under driveways and walks, thicken over decades, and lift sections into trip edges. When replacing, we expose the roots, manage what can be safely managed, and shape the base and edges to reduce future heaving — without harming the tree more than necessary. Large trees are part of what makes these properties valuable.
Older homes near Main Street
Pre-war and turn-of-the-century homes along Main Street, Church Street and Kings Highway often have narrow driveways, older walks and steps, and stone or brick foundations next to the concrete. We take care at those junctions, isolate new slabs from old masonry, and pick finishes that sit comfortably beside the house rather than looking newly paved.
Access around established landscaping
Mature landscaping usually decides where equipment can go. We plan the access route before demolition starts, protect beds, walls and walks along it, and use smaller machines or hand work where full-size equipment would cause damage.
Silty loam and clay underneath
Soil in the township runs from silty loam through clay. Clay holds water under a slab, which freezes and lifts it. We excavate below soft soil, remove what won't support concrete, and install stone in compacted lifts so the slab is supported evenly and water can drain from beneath it.
Repair or replace
A root-lifted section on an otherwise sound driveway can sometimes be cut out and replaced on its own. When cracking runs through the whole slab, full replacement on a proper base is the better long-term choice. We'll explain what we see.
Removal
Old concrete is broken out with care near trees, walls and plantings, loaded and hauled away. On long drives, removal and replacement are staged so you aren't cut off from the house.
Patios that suit the property
Back patios are often where Moorestown homeowners spend summer. We build patios on a compacted base, pitched away from the house, sized and shaped to fit the yard. A patio that tips toward an old foundation sends rain at the basement; a new one pitched correctly stops that.
Reinforcement, joints and isolation
Slabs are reinforced, jointed at proper spacing so cracks form in straight lines inside the joints, and isolated from the house, garage, walls and walks so each moves independently.
Walks and steps
Front walks and steps on older homes settle and tip, especially near trees. We rebuild them on a proper base and match the driveway finish where it suits the house.
Aprons and the street
Work in the street right-of-way generally needs township approval, which we handle. Aprons are built to meet the road cleanly and stand up to plows and salt.
Lines under the drive
Older properties often have sewer and water runs of a hundred feet or more, sometimes under the driveway. If a line is due for replacement, doing it while the slab is out avoids cutting new concrete later. We have every utility marked before we start.
Finishes that suit the house
Broom-finished concrete gives traction on driveways and walks and is the right choice for most of the job. Around older homes, edge details and joint layout do much of the visual work — a well-proportioned driveway with clean tooled edges reads as part of the property rather than an add-on. For patios, we'll talk through finish options and what will stand up to winters and shade.
What a finished job looks like
A finished Moorestown drive should look deliberate from the road to the garage, with joints that follow its line and edges graded back into the landscaping. On a long drive, the first storm should show water shedding off the sides at each planned break. Anything that doesn't drain as promised gets a return visit.
Season and aftercare
Pours on these properties are planned for the mild months, clear of frost and downpours. We'll tell you when the slab can take foot traffic and cars, and recommend keeping leaves and harsh deicers off it through its first winter.
