A long one: the garage on this La Grange Park home sits at the back of the lot, so the driveway is a 20x25 pad at the street plus an 81-foot run, 9 feet wide, down the side of the house. The old concrete had sunk toward the foundation along that run, and every storm sent water at the basement wall. That's why this estimate had drainage on it, not just concrete.

We tore out and hauled about 1,229 square feet, regraded the whole run to pitch away from the house, and built a compacted CA-6 base before the 4-inch reinforced pour, 5 inches at the street. While the ground was open we buried two downspout extensions under the new slab and set a 4-inch yard drain to pick up the low spot, so the water problem went away with the old driveway instead of coming back under the new one. Front and back got new landings with short walks to match.

Three crew days across the driveway and the walks, saw-cut joints the next morning, sealer after cure. The driveway itself came to $16,200 — about $13 a square foot, the low end of our range, because a long straight run is efficient to form and pour — and the whole package with drains and walks was $21,000.
