Atlanta Concrete Services pours, repairs and replaces residential and light commercial concrete throughout Roswell, from the old mill village to the subdivisions off Holcomb Bridge Road. Driveways, patios, front steps, walks, retaining walls and slab leveling are the bulk of what we do here.
Roswell counted 92,833 residents in the 2020 census, making it one of the largest cities in Fulton County. It grew from the cotton mill Roswell King started on Vickery Creek around 1830, and the Chattahoochee forms its southern edge. That mix of nineteenth-century houses, 1970s and 80s swim-and-tennis neighborhoods and river bottomland means no two Roswell jobs start from the same ground.
Our crews cover Martin's Landing, Horseshoe Bend, the historic district, the GA 9 corridor and the neighborhoods out toward GA 92. We also take on driveways and patios a few exits north in Alpharetta.
Roswell's National Register historic district surrounds landmarks like Barrington Hall, Bulloch Hall and Smith Plantation. Concrete close to homes of that age needs a lighter touch than a typical suburban driveway.
Property inside the local historic district may need a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic Preservation Commission before exterior site changes. We help you figure out early whether your walk, steps or wall falls under that review, so the schedule accounts for a commission meeting.
Bright new gray concrete can look out of place beside a weathered brick house. We can adjust finish texture and joint spacing so a replaced walk or stoop sits comfortably next to the original materials instead of shouting that it is new.
A large share of Roswell's housing was built during the subdivision boom of the 70s and 80s. Those driveways and patios are now forty years old or more, and many are failing on schedule.
This 1,000-acre community along the river has roughly 2,000 homes, most built in the 1970s and 80s, around 53-acre Martin Lake. We see a lot of cracked driveways with sunken panels at the garage, which usually means the original fill under the slab has settled over the decades.
Homes around the Horseshoe Bend Country Club have a median build year of 1986. Pool surrounds and back patios here are often the first slabs to go, since decades of splash-out water have softened the clay under the edges.
When a slab is sound but has dropped, concrete leveling can lift it back into place for less than a full tear-out. When it is broken into many pieces, replacement is the honest answer.
Between Vickery Creek, Big Creek and the Chattahoochee, a lot of Roswell drains toward moving water. Rain is the main thing that shortens the life of concrete here.
Parts of Martin's Landing along River Road and near the lake are mapped as high-risk flood zones. On those lots we keep slabs at or near existing grade, avoid blocking natural flow paths and check what fill the site can accept before we add any.
Piedmont clay holds water, swells and then shrinks as it dries out in August. We cut out soft spots, compact a 4-inch graded aggregate base and pitch every slab at least slightly away from the house so roof water never sits against the foundation.
The city has more than 900 acres of parkland, including the Vickery Creek unit of the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area, and many backyards drop toward wooded stream valleys. On those lots we often pair a patio with a short wall or a gravel trench at the low edge so storm runoff has somewhere to go besides under your slab.
Exact numbers come after we measure, but these ranges help with planning.
A new driveway generally runs $8–$14 per square foot. Tearing out an old one and replacing it runs $10–$16, which puts a typical 600-square-foot Roswell driveway at about $6,000–$9,600. Our concrete driveways work covers base prep, reinforcement and control joints.
A broom-finished patio runs $7–$11 per square foot, so 300 square feet comes to roughly $2,100–$3,300. Stamped or decorative finishes start around $12 and go up from there.
Here is what people ask us most before a project starts.
Usually. We route the slab and set its thickness to limit root cutting, and we tell you honestly when a tree and a driveway cannot share the same spot.
You submit to your HOA, and we supply the drawing, dimensions and finish details they ask for.
If the HOA asks for a color sample or a stamped pattern swatch, we can bring one to the estimate so the board sees exactly what will go in.
Plan on 7 days for passenger cars and keep moving trucks or dumpsters off it longer. The slab reaches its design strength at about 28 days.
Yes. Commercial pads, curbs and sidewalks are priced from plans or a site visit rather than a per-foot figure.
