Hampton's brick ranches, Cape Cods and waterfront homes sit on low, sandy ground near tidal creeks and salt air, and their concrete driveways and walkways take a real beating from freeze-thaw cycles, moisture and coastal weather. Newport News Concrete has been serving Hampton (23664) and the surrounding area for years, and we know exactly what happens when a slab settles on soft marine clay or salt spray starts spalling your front steps.
Homeowners in Hampton call us because we understand the terrain here. Your property probably sits on a high water table with slow drainage, your driveway may have sunk at the joints, and your old patio or walkway cracks every winter. We fix it right, with proper base preparation and slope so water runs off instead of pooling and freezing.
Concrete in Hampton (23664)
Hampton's neighborhoods, from the waterfront near Fort Monroe to the residential streets inland, sit on flat coastal plain terrain with sandy loams and silty fills over soft marine clay and shell marl. That means your concrete slab doesn't have a solid, well-draining foundation to rest on. It settles, it sinks at the joints, and water pools on top instead of draining away. Add the freeze-thaw cycles we get every winter, plus salt air blowing in from the James River and Chesapeake Bay, and you get cracked, spalling driveways and crumbling front stoops faster than you'd see in inland Virginia.
We've worked on hundreds of driveways, patios, garage floors and pool decks across Newport News and Hampton. We know how to compact stone bases properly so your slab doesn't settle, how to slope concrete so water sheds away from your home, and how to seal concrete to protect it from salt spray and freeze-thaw damage. If your driveway is already sinking or your walkway is cracked and uneven, we can level it without replacing the whole thing, or we can remove and rebuild it the right way.

How a Job Works in Hampton
We start with a free on-site assessment. You call us at (757) 244-9760 or email, and we come out to look at your driveway, patio, walkway or pool deck. We measure it, check the grade and drainage, look for cracks or settling, and talk through what you want. We give you a realistic estimate with no surprises.
Once you approve, we handle the work. If you need a permit for a driveway or right-of-way work in Hampton, we coordinate that with you and the city. We show up on time, do the job cleanly, and work around your schedule. For a new driveway, we excavate, compact the base properly so it won't settle, set forms, pour and finish the concrete. For repair work, we may grind out spalling, patch cracks, level a sunken slab, or seal your concrete to stop future damage. We keep your property clean as we go, haul away debris, and do a final walkthrough with you so you know the job is done right.
Concrete work in Hampton ranges widely depending on the size of the job, the condition of your existing concrete, site access and how fast you need it done. A new driveway typically runs from $6 per square foot, a patio from $6 per square foot, and a pool deck from $8 per square foot. If you just need repair and sealing, concrete repair starts at $3 per square foot and sealing at $0.75 per square foot. A typical 400-square-foot driveway might cost $2,400 to $3,200 for a new pour, but if you just need leveling and sealing, you could spend $1,600 to $2,000 to save your existing slab. The best way to know is to call us at (757) 244-9760 for a free estimate. We'll look at your property, tell you what we'd do and why, and give you a price you can trust.
