Meet Precision Daphne Concrete, concrete contractors based in Daphne

I started out pouring patios and walks for neighbors on weekends, and in 2013 it became a full business. I learned from older finishers who made me redo an edge until it was right, and I still care most about the parts you can't see once it's poured. We're fully licensed and insured.

We're based in Daphne and work in Mobile, across Baldwin County and in the cities around them, mostly for homeowners and some small business owners. Call (251) 572-8074 or send us a note, and you can read more about how we work.

Why people pick Precision Daphne Concrete

You deal with the person who'll be on your job, from the first look at the site to the final walk through. I come out to most jobs myself, and our own crew does the work with me running it.

  • Most of the work goes underneath

    We dig out and pack the base, check where the water runs and keep you off the slab while it cures, because a slab can look fine the day we leave and still settle later.

  • Straight answers, even for less work

    If your plan has a problem, like a patio that slopes toward the house, I'll tell you on site and say how I'd fix it, even when that means a smaller job for us.

  • Estimates you can compare line by line

    Your estimate is written out with the main parts priced separately, so you can set it beside other bids and see where the money goes.

Questions people ask us

How much does a new concrete driveway cost in Daphne, AL?

The price comes down to the size, how much digging and base work your site needs, the thickness and the finish, so I price each job on site instead of guessing over the phone. A plain broom finish costs less than stamped or colored concrete, and tearing out an old slab adds to the job. Call (251) 572-8074 and I'll come take a look.

What's worth paying for on a new concrete patio or driveway?

Pay for the base first. It's buried on day one, so it's the first thing people want to cut, but a base that's only raked level instead of dug out and packed settles with the dirt and takes the slab with it. If the budget's tight, I'd pick a plainer finish over a thinner base.

How long until I can use my new concrete driveway or patio?

You stay off it while it cures, the wait while the concrete hardens and gains strength, and you can walk on it well before you can drive on it. The exact wait depends on the mix, the thickness and the weather that week, so I'll give you the dates for your pour when we schedule it.

Are you a licensed and insured concrete contractor in Daphne, AL?

Yes, we're fully licensed and insured. The city requires any business working inside Daphne's city limits to hold a City of Daphne business license, and the state licenses residential builders through the Home Builders Licensure Board, so those are fair things to ask any contractor about.

Can you pour new concrete over my old cracked driveway?

Usually not, because new concrete over a cracked or sinking slab sits on the same bad base and tends to crack in the same places. In most jobs we break out the old slab, dig out and pack the base, check where water runs, then pour. If only one section is bad, concrete cutting can take out just that part.

Do you guarantee your concrete work in Daphne, AL?

Yes. Our promise is your satisfaction, guaranteed. I run the job and our own crew does the work, so if something isn't right at the final walk through, you're telling the person responsible for it.

Will my new concrete slab crack like the old one did?

Any slab can crack, but most of the bad cracking we tear out comes from a weak base, poor drainage or joints cut late, and those are the parts we put our time into. Control joints are grooves cut into the fresh slab so that if it cracks, it cracks in the groove instead of across the middle. We also plan pours around midday heat, which can leave a weak, dusty top.

Who issues building permits for concrete work in Daphne, AL?

The city's Building Inspection Department issues building permits and does the inspections for work inside Daphne. Whether your job needs one depends on the work, so that's the office to ask, and Public Works handles culvert permits along city streets, which can come up where a driveway meets the road. When a job needs a permit, we help with the paperwork and deal with the office that covers your address.
