Concrete contractor work in Fayetteville, AR
AJ Fayetteville Concrete Construction is a concrete contractor in Fayetteville, AR, with 16 services covering most of what a house or small property needs poured, cut, raised or replaced. Most calls start with something you can see, like a cracked, sinking driveway, water pooling by the house, or a patio that never got built. The price mostly turns on the size, how much old concrete comes out, how much work the ground needs and the finish you pick. The schedule turns on any permit, the weather and curing, the wait while new concrete gains strength before you use it. I'll put a number on your job in a written estimate after I've seen it.
Concrete driveway building
We dig out and pack the subgrade, the ground the slab sits on, then pour a driveway that sheds water away from your house and garage.
Concrete patio construction
Want a spot for the grill and a few chairs? We build concrete patios sized for how you use the yard and sloped so rain runs off.
Stamped concrete services
Stamped concrete gets pressed with a stone, brick or slate pattern while it's still wet, for patios, walks and pool areas that want more than plain gray.
Concrete sidewalk building
Tired of tripping on heaved sections? We replace walks and front paths with new flatwork, our word for flat pours like walks, patios and drives.
Garage floor concrete
We pour garage floors for parked cars and heavy daily use, with rebar, the steel bars that help hold a slab together, where the job calls for it.
Decorative concrete
Decorative concrete covers color, stain, exposed stone and borders, for homeowners and businesses who want the slab itself to be part of the look.
Concrete retaining walls
When a slope keeps washing into your yard or drive, a poured concrete retaining wall holds the soil back and gives you level ground to use.
Concrete floor installation
We pour interior concrete floors for shops, basements, additions and small commercial spaces, finished smooth or left ready for the flooring going on top.
Concrete pool decks
Pool decks need grip when they're wet and a slope away from the water, so we finish them for bare feet and pour them for regular use.
Concrete steps construction
Crumbling front steps are a fall waiting to happen. We form and pour new concrete steps with even risers and a surface that isn't slick.
Slab foundation building
For builders and owners putting up a house, shop or addition, we prep the ground and pour the slab foundation the walls will stand on.
Foundation installation
We install foundations for new homes, additions and outbuildings, from layout and digging through forms and the pour, working from your builder's plans.
Concrete parking lot building
Small businesses and property owners call us for concrete parking lots laid out to drain properly and built for steady traffic every day.
Concrete footings
What holds up a porch post or an addition wall? Concrete footings, the buried pads and strips that spread the weight into the ground, dug and poured to plan.
Foundation raising
If a slab or foundation has sunk and left cracks or gaps, we lift it back toward level and fill the empty space underneath it.
Concrete cutting
We saw-cut concrete for new doorways, plumbing trenches, removing damaged sections and control joints, the cuts that tell a slab where to crack.

Fayetteville homes and yards, old and new
Fayetteville mixes older houses on established streets with newer neighborhoods still filling in, and most of them have a driveway, a walk or a patio that's been through some years. Downtown, The Ramble ties the city's arts institutions together and steps down a stone amphitheater to Tanglewood Branch, while Wilson Park, the city's first and oldest park, still draws people to its pool, gardens, spring-fed pond and Frank Williams' "Castle".
Out at Lake Fayetteville, people fish, rent boats and bikes, play disc golf at North Shore Park and walk the Botanical Garden of the Ozarks on the east side. We're based here in Fayetteville, and the same driveway, patio and foundation calls come in from the cities around it, so that's where our crew spends its days.

About usFrom your first call to the final walk
Call or send the form
Call (479) 598-4435 or send the form with a few lines about the job and where it is. We reply within one business day either way. If you're not sure what you need yet, that's fine. Tell us what you're seeing, like cracks, sinking or water where it shouldn't be, and we'll start there.
I walk the job with you
I come out myself, walk the site with you, measure and talk through what you want and what the ground and drainage look like. Then I send a written estimate, free and with no obligation, that you can take your time with. Ask whatever you like. I'd rather you understand your job than just sign for it.
We prep, form and pour
Once you say go, I check with the city building office, and if a permit's needed we handle the paperwork and line up the inspections in the right order. Our crew digs out and packs the base, sets the forms, pours and finishes, and I'm on site running it the whole way.
We walk it together
When we're done, we walk the finished job with you. I'll show you where the joints are and why they're there, tell you when the concrete is ready for feet and when it's ready for your car, and answer anything that's still on your mind before we pack up.

Common questions about concrete
How much does a new concrete driveway cost in Fayetteville, AR?
It depends mostly on the size, how much old concrete has to come out and how much work the ground needs before we pour. The finish matters too, since a broom finish, the light texture that gives shoes and tires grip, costs less than stamped or colored concrete. I'll measure and send you a written estimate for free.
Why is one concrete quote so much cheaper than another?
Usually because the cheaper one skimps on what's under the slab, raking the dirt level instead of digging out and packing a real base. That's the first budget cut people make, because you can't see it on day one. It's the one I won't make, since a slab on loose dirt settles with the dirt and cracks along the way.
How long until I can drive on a new concrete driveway?
You can walk on new concrete well before you can drive on it, and I'll tell you when each is safe for your job. Concrete keeps gaining strength well after it looks hard, so parking on it early is how you get cracks and ruts. Plan on parking somewhere else for a while.
Is AJ Fayetteville Concrete Construction licensed and insured?
Yes, we're licensed and fully insured. A licensed contractor doesn't replace a permit, though, because the city says that when a job's scope needs one, it gets pulled no matter who does the work. I check that before we set a date.
Will the owner actually be at my concrete job?
Yes, I come out for the estimate myself and I'm on site running the job while our crew preps, forms, pours and finishes. That way the person who talked drainage and joints with you is the one watching them go in.
Do you guarantee your concrete work?
Your satisfaction, guaranteed. That said, I won't tell you concrete never cracks, because it can crack a little as it dries and the ground moves under it. What we control is where, by cutting control joints on time so any cracks follow lines we chose instead of wandering across your slab.
Does a concrete driveway or patio need rebar?
Not every slab does, but driveways, garage floors and anything carrying weight usually get rebar, steel bars that hold the concrete together and keep cracks tight. Thickness matters just as much, and I'll tell you what yours needs once I've seen what it has to carry.
Do I need a permit for concrete work in Fayetteville, AR?
It depends on the job, so I check with the city's building office before we set a date. The city's same-day permit process doesn't cover a proposed driveway, which goes to regular review instead. If a permit's needed, we handle the paperwork and inspections, and the city says work done without one may lower your home's value.
