Concrete Driveway and Patio Contractor in Morrison Ranch, Gilbert, AZ
Morrison Ranch driveways and patios, done right on old farm ground.
Gilbert · Expansive clay pockets
Morrison Ranch is an east Gilbert community built in the 2000s on what used to be the Morrison family's dairy farm. The streets are tree-lined, the parks are close, and the HOA reviews what you change outside. Most homes here have the builder's driveway and a modest back patio, so the requests we get are extensions, a wider driveway for a third car, side pads for trailers, and patios with a fire pit or a shade structure.
Working in Morrison Ranch
Morrison Ranch is an east Gilbert community built in the 2000s on the Morrison family's former dairy farm, with tree-lined streets, parks and an HOA.
Old farm ground in this part of Gilbert holds pockets of expansive clay. It swells after a monsoon storm and shrinks back as it dries. We take out the soft soil, put in compacted base and keep sprinkler water off the slab edges. The Town of Gilbert sets the rules for driveway work at the street, and we prepare the layout and finish sheet for your HOA.
Expansive clay pockets
Pockets of clay-rich soil on the fan terraces and old basin floor that the soil survey flags for shrink-swell, such as the Carefree and Contine soils.
Expansive clay swells when it gets wet and shrinks as it dries. Here the swings come from a monsoon storm after months of dry heat, and from sprinklers and lawns that keep one side of a slab wet while the other side bakes. The ground under the slab moves unevenly, so slabs crack, edges lift and walks tip.
Remove the soft and organic soil, bring in compacted aggregate base, set rebar on chairs, and keep the moisture under the slab steady: drainage away from it, and turf and drip lines held back from its edges.
What fails here first
- Cracks that move with the seasons, worst after the monsoon
- Lifted edges along walks and patio borders
- Slabs tipping back toward the house or garage
- Cracks that line up with a lawn or planter bed
