Estimates for concrete driveways, patios, and repairs are free and don't obligate you to book anything. A contractor should walk the site and measure before giving a real number, not just quote over the phone. ### Are you licensed and insured? Concrete contractors working in Texas should carry general liability insurance at minimum, and certificates should be available on request. Ask any contractor pouring concrete on your property to show proof before work starts. ### How soon can you start a concrete job? Scheduling depends on the size of the pour and the weather forecast, since concrete needs a dry window to cure properly. Small jobs like repairs or walkways can often start within a week or two, while larger driveway pours may need more lead time. ### What areas do you cover around San Angelo? Concrete work is typically done within about a 50-mile radius of San Angelo, TX, covering towns like Ballinger, Miles, Christoval, and Wall. Distance can affect scheduling and delivery cost for larger concrete pours. ### Do you work on both houses and small businesses? Concrete contractors generally handle residential driveways and patios as well as small commercial pads and parking areas. The base prep and reinforcement change depending on the weight the concrete needs to carry. ### Will you take on a small repair job, or only full driveways? Concrete repair jobs like patching a cracked sidewalk section or leveling a sunken step are common work, not an afterthought. Small jobs still get the same base check and joint work as a full driveway pour. ### How do I get started with a concrete project? Getting a concrete quote usually starts with a phone call describing the job, followed by an on-site visit to measure and check the base soil. A written estimate covering thickness, reinforcement, and finish should follow within a few days. ### What does concrete work typically cost? Concrete pricing depends mainly on square footage, slab thickness, base preparation needed, and finish, whether it's broom, stamped, or a decorative overlay. Access to the site and how much old concrete has to be removed first also move the number up or down. ### Do you require a deposit before starting? Most concrete contractors ask for a deposit to cover materials and scheduling, with the balance due once the pour and finish work are complete. Payment terms should be spelled out clearly in the written estimate before any concrete goes down. ### What happens if it rains on the day of my pour? Concrete can't be poured in heavy rain, and a surprise storm right after finishing can mark or wash out the surface. Pour dates get rescheduled around the forecast rather than risking a slab that's compromised before it even cures. ### Do I need a permit for a new driveway or patio? Concrete driveways often need a permit if they affect drainage, tie into a city sidewalk, or change the grade near a property line, depending on local code in San Angelo. A patio poured entirely within a private backyard usually doesn't need one, but it's worth checking before the pour. ### How long does a typical concrete job take? A standard driveway or patio pour usually takes one to three days for forming, pouring, and initial finishing, plus curing time after that. Concrete needs about 24 to 48 hours before foot traffic and roughly a week before vehicles drive on it. ### Can you work within a set budget? Concrete jobs can be scoped to a budget by adjusting the finish, whether it's plain broom versus stamped or colored concrete, or by reducing the footprint. Thickness and reinforcement aren't the places to cut corners, since that affects how long the slab lasts. ### Do you guarantee your concrete work? Workmanship guarantees on concrete typically cover cracking beyond normal control-joint cracking and finish defects for a set period after the pour. Hairline cracking within control joints is expected concrete behavior, not a defect. ### Who do I talk to day-to-day during the project? On most concrete jobs, the crew lead or estimator who walked the site and wrote the quote stays the main point of contact through the pour. That keeps details about grading, joint placement, and finish consistent instead of getting lost between different people. ### What materials do you use for concrete pours? Standard concrete work uses ready-mix concrete at a strength suited to the job, rebar or wire mesh for reinforcement, and either plastic vapor barrier or compacted base rock underneath. Stamped or decorative finishes add color hardener and a release agent applied during finishing. ### Can I still use my driveway or yard during the work? A driveway or patio area is generally unusable during forming and for at least a week after the pour while the concrete cures enough for vehicle weight. Living in the house isn't affected, though equipment and material deliveries will be parked in the yard or street temporarily. ### What do I need to do to get the site ready? Clearing the area of vehicles, furniture, and landscaping near the planned slab makes site prep faster and keeps things from getting damaged during excavation. Sprinkler lines or buried utilities near the work area should be marked or pointed out before digging starts. ### What if you find a problem once the old concrete is out? Removing old concrete sometimes uncovers soft soil, tree roots, or a broken drain line that wasn't visible before the job started. When that happens, the base gets corrected before any new concrete is poured, which can add a day or two and change the cost. ### How should I take care of new concrete after it's poured? New concrete should be kept off vehicle traffic for about a week and free of de-icing salt or harsh chemicals for the first season. Sealing a driveway or patio every few years helps it resist staining and the freeze-thaw cycles that cause surface flaking. ### How long has Progressive Concrete Inc been doing concrete work? Progressive Concrete Inc's crew has years of hands-on experience pouring driveways, patios, and slab work in the San Angelo area. Specific details on experience and past projects can be discussed directly when getting a quote. ### Do you use your own crew or hire subcontractors? Progressive Concrete Inc pours and finishes concrete with its own crew rather than subcontracting the work out to a different team. That keeps the people who quote a job the same people doing the forming and finishing. ### Can I see examples of past concrete work? Photos of completed driveways, patios, and repair work can be requested directly from Progressive Concrete Inc before booking a job. Seeing finish type, stamped patterns, or edge detail on past work helps set expectations for a new pour. ### Why hire a smaller concrete contractor instead of a big company? A smaller concrete contractor like Progressive Concrete Inc typically has the owner or lead involved in quoting and checking the job, not just a sales rep. That usually means fewer miscommunications about base prep, thickness, and finish between the quote and the actual pour. ### Where is Progressive Concrete Inc based? Progressive Concrete Inc is based in San Angelo, TX, and serves surrounding towns within roughly a 50-mile radius. That includes places like Ballinger, Eden, Miles, and Christoval. ### What is your availability like for new concrete jobs? Availability for concrete work depends on the season, since spring and fall are typically the busiest for pours due to milder curing weather. Calling ahead to check the schedule is the best way to get a realistic start date. ### Do you clean up the site after a concrete job? Cleanup after a concrete pour includes removing form boards, excess base material, and containing washout water instead of leaving it on the property. A finished job site should look like a driveway or patio was poured there, not like a construction zone. ### What happens if something gets damaged on my property during the work? A licensed and insured concrete contractor carries coverage for accidental property damage that happens during forming, excavation, or the pour itself. Certificates of insurance can be requested before work begins as proof of that coverage. ### Will you finish concrete work that another contractor started or left incomplete? Taking over a partially finished concrete job is possible, but it usually starts with an inspection of what was already poured or formed. Base work and reinforcement from a previous contractor need to be checked before new concrete gets added on top of it. ### How can I tell if concrete work is being done correctly while it's in progress? Correct concrete work shows level forms, visible rebar or mesh before the pour, and control joints cut within a day of finishing, not weeks later. Asking to see the base compaction and reinforcement before the truck arrives is a reasonable request on any job. --- Last updated 2026-08-20.
