Concrete contractor in Bentonville, AR - driveways, patios and slabs on a solid base
Classic Bentonville Concrete Company is a concrete contractor based in Bentonville, AR. We pour driveways, patios, walks, garage floors and slabs for homeowners here, with the base dug out and packed and the water sent away from the house.
Why Bentonville homeowners pour new concrete
Most Bentonville calls start with something you can see: a driveway cracked across, or water pooling by the garage. Usually the cause is the subgrade, the ground the slab sits on. It was raked level instead of dug out and packed, so it settled and the concrete went with it.
The price of a new concrete driveway or patio turns on its size and thickness, how much old concrete and soft dirt we haul out, whether it needs rebar, the steel bars that hold cracked pieces together, and the finish you pick. The schedule turns on any permit and the weather on pour day. You get your own figure at the estimate.

What shapes a concrete job in Bentonville
In Bentonville, building permits come from the city's Building & Fire Safety Division, which is part of the fire department. Its residential applications include a rainfall worksheet for every structure and pool. The city is asking the same thing I check on your lot, which is where the water goes once the new concrete is down.
New house slabs can carry two more steps. A lot in the floodplain needs its floodplain permit finished before the final inspection. Where the plat records a finished floor height, that height has to be certified before the slab inspection, so we confirm both before the forms go up.
We do the same work in Centerton, Rogers and the cities around them, and I look at the base and the water the same way there. Call or send the form to ask for an estimate.

Why Bentonville homeowners call us
I started out pouring small slabs and walks for neighbors here in Bentonville, and I learned the trade next to the finishers I worked with. I still come out to look at every job, write the estimate and run the pour with our crew.

Bentonville concrete questions
Does a concrete driveway or patio need a permit in Bentonville?
The city's permit list doesn't name driveways or patios, so it's worth checking for your address before anyone pours. It covers building permits along with pools, fences, signs and demolition. We find out before we start, and when your job needs a permit, we handle the application and set up the inspections.
When can a concrete job start after getting a Bentonville permit?
Work can't start until the permit is paid and shows as issued, and the city says starting sooner can bring added fees or a stop work notice. Anything covered before it passes inspection has to be uncovered or torn out at the builder's cost, so we line up inspections before the truck comes.
Can I act as my own general contractor in Bentonville?
Yes, the legal owner of a permitted house can act as general contractor in Bentonville. You can't do licensed work yourself, since plumbing, electrical, mechanical and fire permits go only to contractors licensed in Arkansas, and you're responsible for the items on the city's Owner as Builder list.
Will a new concrete driveway crack like my old one did?
Usually not the same way, if the base is packed and the joints are cut on time, though most concrete cracks somewhere. We cut control joints, shallow grooves that give the slab a line to crack along, while it's still young. I'd put money into a dug-out, packed base before a fancy finish, because a nice surface on soft dirt sinks anyway.
How long until I can drive on a new concrete driveway?
You can walk on it well before you can drive on it, because concrete keeps gaining strength while it cures, the wait while it hardens. I'll give you the dates for your pour, and we plan pours around the midday heat, which leaves the top weak and dusty.
