Questions about concrete costs
Where do these prices come from?
From published 2025 and 2026 San Diego installed-cost guides, listed on this page. They are not Fierro Concrete’s prices. Your quote comes after a visit, once the site, the slope and the access are seen.
Why does a driveway cost more than a patio?
A driveway carries cars, so it gets a stronger base and more reinforcement. The San Diego guides put standard driveway concrete about $2 a square foot above a broom-finish patio.
How thick should my concrete be?
Four inches is standard for patios and walkways. Driveways are usually 4 to 5 inches, and 6 inches or more for trucks, RVs or heavy equipment. Two extra inches add about a quarter to the concrete cost.
Stamped concrete or pavers?
Stamped concrete costs less to put in. Pavers cost more up front, and a cracked or stained paver can be lifted and replaced on its own.
Do I need to remove my old concrete?
If the old slab is cracked, sunken or heaved, yes. Removal adds about $1.30 to $2.10 a square foot. Pouring over a broken slab usually carries its cracks into the new one.
What if a truck cannot reach my backyard?
Fierro Concrete pumps concrete down a side yard or over the house. A pump for a home pour typically adds $800 to $1,800.
