Our crew has more than 7 years of hands on concrete experience around Apex and Wake County.
An Apex company with family roots in Durham and Cary, living and working in the same community as your project.
Plain, upfront estimates with no surprise charges. We go over the costs with you before the work starts.
We agree on a start date with you and keep you posted, so your project is never left waiting.
Strong concrete mixes, the right steel, and sealers picked for Triangle sun and rain.
A concrete slab is the base for sheds, garages, workshops, and additions. As your local concrete contractor, we pack the clay, set the steel, and pour a slab that stays flat. Smooth or broom finish, small pad or large floor, we size it to the job.
We replace cracked, lifted sidewalks and build new walkways with the right slope and clean joints. Tree roots, soft clay, and heavy rain are all part of the plan, so your path stays smooth and safe to walk.
A concrete patio gives your family a place to cook out, relax, and enjoy a summer evening. We shape the pad for your yard, send water away from the house, and finish the top for good grip and easy sweeping.
Trucks, cars, and boat trailers all roll across a driveway. We pour thick, reinforced slabs with a clean slope so rain leaves the pad. New driveway or replacement, we build one that stays handsome for years.
A good foundation keeps a home level and dry. We dig, form, reinforce, and pour foundations planned for Wake County clay, so doors close and walls stay straight long after the build is done.
A concrete parking lot has to carry cars, delivery trucks, and heavy rain. We plan the thickness, joints, and drains to match your property, so customers get a clean place to park and you get fewer repairs.
Stamped concrete brings brick, slate, and stone patterns to patios, drives, and walks. We press the pattern at the right moment and seal it well, so color and texture hold up in Triangle sun.
Our pool decks use textures and colors that stay comfortable on bare feet. We slope each deck away from the pool wall, cut joints in smart places, and seal the surface to handle chlorine, sun, and splashing.
Oil, tires, tools, and humid air are hard on a garage floor. We pour new floors and repair old ones with the right barrier and prep, so coatings stick and cleaning stays easy.
A concrete retaining wall protects a sloped yard from washing away. We pour wide footings, place steel, and add drainage behind every wall so water has a way out and the wall stays straight.
Safe steps have even rises and good grip. We tie new steps into your porch or slab, finish each tread for traction, and build them on firm footings so they do not shift or settle.
A concrete floor is simple, clean, and strong. We pour with a vapor barrier for Triangle humidity, then finish smooth, brushed, or sealed, depending on how you plan to use the space.
Footings carry the weight of your building into the ground. We dig to the plan, set the steel, and pour with care, so the walls, columns, and porches above them stay steady in clay.
A concrete porch is the front door of your home. We tie it into the structure, slope it away from the walls, and finish it for good traction, so it looks sharp and stays solid for years.
Stains, saw cuts, exposed stone, and soft textures can turn a plain slab into a showpiece. We seal each finish for sun and pollen season so it keeps its color through many summers.
From a small repair to a full build, one local concrete contractor can plan, prep, pour, and finish your project. That means clear talk, fewer surprises, and concrete that works as a team with the rest of your property.
At Apex Concrete, a local concrete contractor, we bring 7 years of hands on experience to every pour. From driveways and slabs to foundations and patios, we plan the job around your property and finish it with care.
No two lots drain the same way, so we look at your slope, your clay, and how you plan to use the space. That plan shapes the base, the steel, and the finish, which means smoother surfaces and fewer weak spots.
Pouring and Repairing With Skill:
We install and repair driveways, slabs, patios, and foundations for neighbors across Apex. Seven years of local work have taught us how clay and heavy rain behave, so we build for them from the very first step.
A Simple, Careful Process:
First we remove the old surface and fix the ground. Next we form, add steel, and pour. Then we finish and cure the concrete the right way. Every step is planned, and every site is left clean.
Concrete for Every Project:
Small repair or big build, home or business, this concrete contractor has the tools and know how to do the job well. We keep prices clear and the schedule honest.
Our owner has lived in Apex for years, so our concrete contractor team treats every property like it is our own. You get plain talk, a fair price, and a crew you can reach. Apex Concrete is your local team for driveways, slabs, foundations, and repairs.
Poured by people who live here, our concrete is made to handle daily use, hot summers, and big storms. As your Apex concrete contractor, we aim for clean lines, tough surfaces, and work that does not need constant repairs.
A new concrete driveway gives your home a clean, strong entrance. Our concrete contractor crew pours thick, reinforced slabs with a slope that sends rain away from your garage, so your drive stays smooth under daily traffic. It is a good fit for new builds and for replacing a driveway that has cracked or sunk.
Clay can shift, and summer storms can flood a lot in minutes. That is why we pack the base, place steel where it matters, and cure the concrete slowly. The result is a driveway that looks great now and keeps its shape for years.

Every building starts at the ground. Our foundations are dug to the plan, tied together with steel, and poured with forms that stay square.

Concrete Slab Installation in Apex, North Carolina
Need a flat, tough surface for a garage, shed, workshop, or patio? A properly poured slab is the answer. A good concrete contractor prepares the base, places reinforcement, and finishes the top so water runs off and the surface stays level. It is the dependable start for almost any project in Apex.
Concrete Porch Installation in Apex, North Carolina
Your front porch is the first hello your home gives. Say goodbye to cracked, uneven concrete and welcome a smooth, sturdy porch that ties into the house and sheds water well. It adds comfort, safety, and curb appeal, and a good concrete contractor can finish it fast.
We build each porch with careful forms, tight corners, and a finish with good grip. Expect a clean, sturdy entry that looks great and makes coming home feel a little better.
Start with the basics. Look for a local company that answers the phone, gives written estimates, and shows photos of finished work. Ask what base they use, how thick the concrete will be, and where the steel sits. In Apex, those questions matter because Wake County clay swells when wet and shrinks when dry, and a thin slab on a weak base can crack. A good concrete contractor will also talk about drainage, since water is the number one enemy of concrete. Ask how they handle rain delays and cleanup. Check reviews and ask neighbors who they used. Be careful with a price that is far lower than the rest, because it often means less base or less steel. We are locally owned, with 7 years of experience, and our family works in concrete across Durham, Cary, and Apex. We happily answer every question and give a free estimate.
Most concrete driveways in Apex cost about $6 to $15 per square foot. A typical two car driveway can run several thousand dollars. The price depends on size, thickness, the amount of old concrete to remove, access for trucks, and the finish. A plain broom finish costs less than stamped or colored concrete. Sloped lots and tight spaces add labor. Reinforcement, like rebar or mesh, adds a bit of cost but pays off, since it holds cracks tight. When you compare quotes from a concrete contractor, compare the same scope, including demolition, gravel base, thickness, joints, and cleanup. A cheap quote may skip some of those. We always visit your lot, measure, and give a free estimate in writing. We also point out where you could save money without hurting quality, such as a simpler shape or a smaller apron.
Concrete gains strength over time. You can usually walk on it after one or two days. Wait about seven days before parking cars, and give it up to 28 days before heavy trucks, trailers, or boats. Full strength comes at about 28 days. During that time, protect the surface from sharp objects, harsh cleaners, and de icing salt. Hot Apex summers make the top dry fast, so a good concrete contractor will mist or cover the slab so it cures slowly. In cool weather, curing is slower, so patience matters more. We give you a simple care note after every pour that lists when you can walk, drive, and seal. We also suggest sealing the surface about a month later, since a sealer keeps oil and pollen from soaking in. If you have questions after the pour, call us and we will gladly help.
Sometimes. A thin new layer over old concrete is called an overlay, and it works only when the old slab is flat, firm, and free of major cracks. If the surface is just worn or stained, an overlay or a decorative coating can freshen it for less money. If the slab is cracked through, sunken, or heaving, an overlay will fail because the problem is underneath. In Apex, clay movement causes many of those problems, so replacement is often the better choice. We remove the old concrete, rebuild the base, and pour a new slab. When you ask a concrete contractor about overlays, make sure they inspect the old slab first. An honest one will tell you when a repair will not last. We check the base, probe for soft spots, and then explain the best option, with a free estimate for each path.
It depends on the project. Many small patios and walks do not need a building permit, but driveway aprons that meet the street, detached garage slabs, retaining walls, and slabs for structures often do. Stormwater and setbacks can matter too. Many Apex neighborhoods also have an HOA that must approve size, color, and materials. Read your covenants and send the request early, since approval can take a couple of weeks. Contact the Town of Apex or Wake County if you are not sure about permits. A good concrete contractor will help with sketches and samples and will not start without the right approvals. We do that. We describe the project, mark the layout, and plan our schedule around approvals. If a permit is not needed, we simply get to work. Either way, you get a clear plan and a free estimate.
Spring and fall are our favorites. Temperatures are mild, storms are less fierce, and concrete cures at a steady pace. We pour in summer, too, but we start early in the morning, keep the surface damp, and avoid the hottest hours so the top does not dry too fast. Winter works when temperatures stay above freezing. Apex averages about 4.8 inches of snow a year and can see ice storms, so a good concrete contractor watches the forecast and avoids pouring right before a hard freeze. Concrete should not freeze in its first days, so we may use blankets or warm water in the mix. Rain is also a factor, since heavy rain can ruin a fresh finish. We keep an eye on the weather, talk with you, and move the date if that protects your project. Call us any time of year for a free estimate.
