What Palm Beach homes need from a concrete crew

Most of what we pour in Palm Beach is driveways, walkways, patios and pool decks at single-family homes, plus exterior work at condo buildings, where the association gets a say before anything is formed. We're a concrete contractor in Delray Beach, FL, and the same crew that works in West Palm Beach and Lantana does the work here, with me on site running it.

Lots here can sit in mapped flood zones, and a pour often touches the street, so planning starts well before pour day. Size, base work and finish move the price, and the town's permits and work calendar move the schedule, which is why I write the estimate after I've walked the lot.

What concrete work runs into in Palm Beach

  • Driveways that meet the street

    A pour or a delivery that touches the road, sidewalk or shoulder needs the town's right-of-way permit, filed at least 72 hours ahead. We set the pour date around that wait.

  • Where the trucks park

    The town can give a contractor a strike for construction vehicles parked on the street without approval, and three strikes brings a stop work order. We settle where our trucks go before pour day.

  • Condo exterior approvals

    Any exterior work at a condo unit or building needs a condo approval letter, so a walkway or patio there starts with your association. We'll ask about that letter when we look at the job.

  • Water sitting on the slab

    Pooling water, or a slab that tips toward the house, usually means nobody checked where the water runs before the pour. We set the slope so water heads off the concrete and away from your walls.

Should you patch a cracked slab in Palm Beach or replace it?

A hairline crack or a chipped corner can usually be patched or sealed, because the slab under it is still sound. When sections have sunk, tipped or broken apart, the trouble is in the subgrade, the dirt and stone the slab sits on, and patching the top won't hold. That's when we tear it out and start over.

If the budget's tight, I'd trim the finish before the base, because the base is what keeps a new slab from cracking like the old one. We dig out and pack the base, set the slope and cut control joints, shallow grooves that tell cracks where to go, before the slab can crack on its own. If the trouble is in the house itself, that's foundation installation work, and we look at it that way.

Palm Beach concrete questions

  • Do I need a permit for a concrete driveway in Palm Beach, FL?

    Ask the town's Planning, Zoning, and Building Department before work starts, because it handles construction permits and its permit form names alterations, remodels and repairs, not driveways or patios by name. When a job needs a permit, we handle the filing and the inspections, and we'll tell you at the estimate if we need anything from you, like a survey or your parcel number.

  • How do I check a concrete contractor before hiring one in Palm Beach?

    Ask for current copies of their state license or certificate of competency, because the town's permit form asks for them and every contractor has to register with the town to apply for permits. Hiring someone unlicensed can leave you ineligible for inspections or a certificate of occupancy, and a business tax receipt won't settle it, since the town says paying that tax doesn't certify anyone's competence. We're fully licensed and insured.

  • What changes for concrete work in a Palm Beach flood zone?

    If your property is in the AE or VE flood zone, a permit there also needs a separate Flood Plain Development permit, and that application includes an elevation certificate or a survey showing elevations. The town posts its FEMA flood maps on the building department's page, so you can see which zone your lot falls in.

  • What permit do I need to drain my pool in Palm Beach before a pool deck job?

    Sending pool water into the road or alley takes a Dewatering ROW Permit from the town. Chlorinated water can't go straight into the town's storm drains, so it gets pretreated first, either through a below-ground dewatering system or by going at least 7 days without added chlorine. Plan that week in before deck work if the pool has to come down.

  • Which days is construction work paused in Palm Beach?

    The town pauses construction from December 24 through January 1. Its 2026 list also allows no construction on November 11 and 26 and only landscaping on November 25 and 27, and the allowed work hours shift between a summer range, May 1 to October 30, and a winter range, November 1 to April 30. We pick pour dates around those days so a job doesn't stall halfway.

  • How much does a new concrete driveway cost in Palm Beach?

    Your price comes from the size of the slab, how much old concrete and soft dirt has to come out, and the finish you pick, so I give it to you in writing after seeing the job. A plain broom finish, a light brushed texture for grip, costs less than stamped or decorative work, and a flood plain or right-of-way permit adds paperwork and time to the job.
