Alexandria Concrete pours driveways, patios, foundations, and more across Alexandria and central Louisiana. We handle the whole job - permits, base prep, pour, and cleanup - so you do not have to coordinate anything.
Alexandria Concrete is a licensed Concrete Contractor based in Alexandria, LA, offering 16 concrete services across 12 cities in central Louisiana. Whether your driveway is cracking, your patio needs replacing, or you need a slab poured for a new build, we handle it from start to finish - permit to cleanup. Bad ground preparation causes most concrete failures. We take that step seriously so your slab holds up through the clay soil and heavy rain cycles this region is known for.

Learn MoreReach out by phone or our contact form and tell us what you have in mind - a cracked driveway, a new patio, a foundation slab. We respond within 1 business day and schedule a free on-site visit at a time that works for you. No commitments, no pressure.
We come to you, measure the area, check the soil and drainage, and ask what you want the finished result to look like. You get a written estimate that breaks out every cost clearly. If a permit is needed, we handle that paperwork before work begins. Nothing starts until you have approved the plan and price.
Our crew prepares the base, pours and finishes the concrete, cuts the control joints, and hauls away the debris. We do a final walkthrough with you before we leave so you can see the work and ask any questions. Then we give you clear curing instructions so your new concrete reaches its full strength.
We carry a Louisiana contractor license issued through the Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors, plus full liability and workers compensation insurance. Every project is covered - yours and ours.
We come to you, measure the space, and give you a written estimate at no charge. There is no pressure to commit, and we do not start any work until you have reviewed and approved the price in writing.
We are local. Our crews know Rapides Parish clay soil, the Alexandria permit process, and which neighborhoods have mature tree roots that threaten concrete slabs. That local knowledge makes a real difference in how long your project holds up.
If there is a defect in our work, we come back and fix it. We use proper concrete mixes rated for driveways and flatwork - not weaker general-purpose blends - and we do not cut corners on base preparation, because that is where most concrete failures start.

"We had our old driveway replaced last spring. They showed up on time, finished the demo and pour in two days, and the surface looked perfect. It has been through two rainy seasons now and not a crack anywhere. I appreciated that they pulled the permit themselves - I did not have to deal with any of that."
Marcus T., Alexandria - Concrete Driveway Building
"We wanted a stamped patio to match the look of the stone on our house. They brought samples, walked us through the color options, and delivered exactly what we described. The finished patio is the best part of our backyard now. The whole job was done in one day and cleanup was thorough."
Denise R., Pineville - Stamped Concrete Services
"We had a slab poured for a detached garage and were worried about it settling because of the soil on our property. The crew spent real time on the base prep - much more than I expected - and explained exactly what they were doing and why. The slab has stayed perfectly level through several wet seasons since."

(318) 319-2118Alexandria Concrete serves 12 cities and communities across central Louisiana, including Alexandria, Pineville, Natchitoches, and Leesville. We offer same-week scheduling for most projects and can typically reach any community in our service area within 60 miles of our Alexandria office. If you are not sure whether we cover your area, call and ask.
The ground underneath your concrete determines how long it lasts. A weak or poorly compacted base causes slabs to crack and sink even when the concrete itself is high quality. Most premature concrete failures in Louisiana trace back to rushed base prep, not the pour.
Concrete handles heat, humidity, and heavy rain better than asphalt over the long term. Asphalt softens in extreme summer temperatures and needs re-sealing every few years. According to the Portland Cement Association, properly built concrete driveways in warm climates routinely last 30 years or more.
Spring and fall offer the most reliable conditions, since Alexandria summers bring heat that can dry fresh concrete too fast and weaken it. Experienced crews work around summer heat by scheduling early-morning pours and using slow-set additives when needed.
Alexandria's older neighborhoods have mature live oaks, pecans, and sweet gums whose roots grow toward moisture - including the moisture under concrete slabs. If large trees sit within 10 to 15 feet of your driveway or patio, ask your contractor about root barriers before pouring. Ignoring nearby trees is one of the most common reasons concrete fails early in this area.
Driveways that carry only passenger cars are typically poured four inches thick. Parking heavy trucks, RVs, or equipment requires five to six inches. Patios and sidewalks usually run three to four inches. Undersized slabs crack under loads they were not designed to handle - thicker concrete costs more upfront but avoids far more expensive repairs later.
Control joints are the evenly spaced lines cut or tooled into a concrete surface. They give the slab a place to crack along a planned, hidden line as it expands and contracts with temperature changes - instead of cracking randomly across the middle. A slab without properly spaced joints is more likely to develop visible, irregular cracks over time.
Alexandria Concrete is a licensed and insured concrete contractor company based in Alexandria, LA, serving 12 cities across central Louisiana since 2024. We hold a Louisiana contractor license issued through the Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors, which requires passing testing and carrying the insurance that protects you if anything goes wrong on your property.
Our crew has poured concrete driveways, patios, slabs, parking lots, retaining walls, pool decks, and foundations across Alexandria, Pineville, Natchitoches, and surrounding communities. We offer 16 concrete services, and every project starts with a free on-site estimate and a written price before any work begins.
Learn more about usIf cracks are wider than a quarter inch, one section sits higher than another, or the surface is flaking in large patches, repair is usually a short-term fix. Full replacement gives you a stable, level surface built to current standards.
Concrete prices vary based on material delivery costs, labor rates, and how busy contractors are. Getting two or three written quotes helps you spot bids that are too low to be realistic - those gaps usually appear in the finished product.
A well-finished slab has clean edges, evenly spaced control joints, and a surface that slopes slightly away from your home. Ask your contractor how many expansion joints they plan to cut and how they handle base preparation in clay soil.

Alexandria is the largest city in central Louisiana, home to about 47,000 residents inside the city limits and roughly 154,000 people across Rapides Parish. The city sits along the Red River and serves as the main hub for healthcare, retail, and services across a wide stretch of the state. Across the river, Pineville functions as a close neighbor - most people here move between both cities for work and daily life.
Alexandria has several distinct areas, each with its own character. The older neighborhoods near downtown - including parts of the Garden District and the streets near the Rapides Parish Coliseum - have homes dating back to the early 1900s, many with older driveways and concrete work that has reached the end of its useful life. The south and west sides of the city have newer developments built over clay-heavy soil, where slabs need careful base preparation to stay level through wet and dry seasons. The England Airpark area continues to draw residential and commercial growth, and we work regularly in those newer subdivisions.
Whether your home is near the Red River downtown, in an established mid-century neighborhood, or in a newer development on the edges of the city, Alexandria Concrete knows what the soil and climate here demand from concrete work. We have served homeowners and businesses across this community since 2024, and we understand the local permit process, the tree root pressures in older neighborhoods, and the drainage challenges that come with over 55 inches of rain per year.
