Concrete Driveways

A Driveway Built for Tucson

If your old driveway is cracking, sinking, or just plain worn out, you’re in the right place. At RS Concrete Contractor Tucson, we build concrete driveways that are built to last—designed for the blazing heat, sudden rainstorms, and dry soil that makes Tucson… well, Tucson.

 

This page will walk you through everything you need to know about driveway installation, replacement, repair options, customization ideas, and why choosing a local expert makes all the difference.

Why Concrete is the Best Driveway Material in Tucson, AZ

We get asked all the time: “Is concrete better than pavers or asphalt?” And around here, concrete wins almost every time. Tucson’s extreme summer heat causes asphalt to soften and crack. Pavers shift and settle if the base isn’t perfect. But a well-poured concrete driveway? It’ll hold strong for decades—with way less maintenance.

 

Plus, it looks clean, works with every home style, and can be upgraded with decorative touches like color, texture, or stamped borders.

New Concrete Driveway Installation

Building a new home in Vail or the Catalina Foothills? Upgrading an old gravel pad in Rita Ranch? We handle complete new driveway installations from start to finish. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Site Prep & Grading – We dig and level the area to make sure water flows away from your home.

     

  • Base Material – A solid gravel or sand base helps prevent future settling or cracks.

     

  • Forming & Reinforcement – Strong edges, clean corners, and steel rebar support for heavy vehicles.

     

  • Concrete Pouring & Finishing – We pour the slab, smooth it out, and finish it with your choice of texture—broom, exposed aggregate, or stamped.

     

  • Curing & Sealing – We let it cure right (no rushing) and seal it if needed for protection.

     

We don’t leave messes behind, and we don’t disappear halfway through the job. You’ll get a finished product that looks sharp, drains well, and holds up.

Concrete Driveway Replacement

If your current driveway is beyond patching—meaning large cracks, heaving slabs, or missing chunks—it’s time for a full replacement. We’ll handle demolition, haul away the debris, and start fresh with a better design, better prep, and a slab that’s actually built for Southern Arizona weather.

 

We can even widen your driveway, add extra parking pads, or include a decorative apron or border to boost curb appeal.

Customization Options

Concrete doesn’t have to be boring. Our team can add custom elements that make your driveway stand out:

  • Stamped Borders or Full Patterns

  • Colored Concrete with Integral Dye or Surface Stains

  • Exposed Aggregate Finish

  • Salt Finish for a Textured Look

Want something that matches the stonework on your home or adds a little contrast to your desert landscaping? Let us know your style and budget—we’ll help you design it.
