Why Choose Concrete for Your Driveway?
Concrete driveways offer several advantages compared to gravel or asphalt.
Long-Lasting Strength
Concrete resists cracking and sinking when installed with the right base and reinforcement. This durability saves you money on repairs over time.
Low Maintenance
Unlike asphalt, concrete requires less frequent upkeep. Simple cleaning and occasional sealing can keep your driveway looking fresh for years.
Curb Appeal and Value
A clean, well-finished concrete driveway boosts your home’s curb appeal and can increase property value, making it a smart investment.
How We Build Driveways—Our Process
We focus on quality at every step to ensure your driveway stands the test of time.
Site Preparation
We start by removing any old driveway material and clearing the area. Then, we level and compact the soil to create a stable foundation.
Forms and Reinforcement
Next, we set up forms to shape your driveway. Steel reinforcement bars (rebar) or wire mesh may be added for extra strength, depending on the project.
Pouring and Finishing
Concrete is poured carefully, then finished with the appropriate texture—smooth, broom, or stamped—for safety and aesthetics.
Proper Curing
After finishing, we cure the concrete with care. This step is critical to reach full strength and durability, usually taking several days.
Why Proper Drainage Matters for Driveways
Water can be your driveway’s worst enemy. Without proper drainage, rainwater pools and seeps beneath the concrete, causing soil erosion and weakening the base. This can lead to cracks, sinking, or uneven surfaces over time.
At MC Concrete PDX LLC, we design driveways with drainage in mind. We ensure slopes and drainage paths direct water away from your driveway and home. This protects your investment and keeps your driveway stable for years to come.
Proper drainage also prevents ice buildup in winter, making your driveway safer to use during cold months in Oregon.
Maintenance Tips—Keep Your Driveway Strong
Taking a few simple steps will extend your driveway’s life and keep it looking its best.

Sealing protects the surface from stains, cracks, and weather damage. Aim to reseal every 2 to 3 years.
Clean Promptly
Remove oil spills, leaves, and dirt quickly to prevent stains and deterioration.
Avoid Heavy Loads Early On
Give new concrete at least a week to cure before parking heavy vehicles on it.
