New Orleans Concreters pours new concrete driveways and driveway replacements across Metairie, the largest community in the metro, just west of the city. You get a local crew, honest itemized pricing, and concrete prepped, jointed and sealed to hold up through southeast Louisiana's heat, humidity and shifting soils, not just look good on day one.
New driveways & full replacements
Whether you are replacing a cracked, heaving driveway or pouring new, we build it to carry real vehicle loads: a compacted base, the right slab thickness and rebar or wire reinforcement where it counts, with proper slope so water runs off instead of pooling.
Finishes & options
- Broom finish for a durable, classic driveway.
- Stamped or bordered for curb appeal that matches a stamped patio or walkway.
- Exposed aggregate for grip and a high-end look.
- Proper drainage and expansion joints so the slab moves without cracking.
Built for the Gulf Coast climate
An properly proportioned mix, correct jointing and a good sealer keep your driveway intact through heat, heavy rain and shifting soils. We will tell you honestly whether a repair or a full replacement is the smarter spend.
Concrete driveways in Metairie
A Metairie driveway has to handle daily traffic on soft, settling ground, so we pour on a compacted base at the right thickness with reinforcement and proper drainage. We replace cracked and sunken cement driveways across Old Metairie, Bissonet Plaza and Old Jefferson. Any apron or curb work that ties into the public street is coordinated with Jefferson Parish so it is done to code.
Permits in Metairie
Metairie is unincorporated Jefferson Parish, so building permits run through Jefferson Parish, not a city office. Ordinary private paving of a patio, walkway or driveway often does not need a building permit, but any work in the public right-of-way, like a driveway apron or curb cut, does, and Old Metairie has extra tree-preservation and conservation-district rules. We confirm and pull what your specific project needs.

Common questions
How much does a concrete driveway cost?
Driveway cost depends on square footage, thickness, reinforcement, tear-out of the old slab, and finish. We give a clear, itemized estimate for free so there are no surprises.
How thick should a concrete driveway be?
Four inches is standard for cars; we go thicker where trucks, RVs or heavy loads are involved, with reinforcement to match.
Can you replace just part of my driveway?
Often yes. If only a section has failed we can replace that area; if the base is gone underneath the whole thing, a full replacement is the better value. We will tell you straight.
Do I need a permit for concrete work in Metairie?
Metairie permits go through Jefferson Parish, not a city office. Simple private paving often does not need a building permit, but driveway aprons, curb cuts and Old Metairie conservation-district work do. We confirm the requirements and handle the paperwork for your project.
