Concrete Driveway Contractor in Camelback East, Phoenix, AZ
From canal-side bungalows to Camelback views, driveways done right.
Phoenix · River and wash alluvium
Camelback East Village is the City of Phoenix village south of Camelback Mountain. It covers the older streets along the Arizona Canal as well as the Arcadia and Biltmore areas, so one week we're replacing a narrow drive behind a small 1950s house and the next we're pouring a wide stamped motor court for a remodel. What ties them together is age: many slabs here are well past their life, with cracked panels, a heaved apron or a drive that was never wide enough for two cars.

The ground across the village is river and wash alluvium. It drains well and holds up when it's compacted, and it settles when it isn't, especially once it's wet from sprinklers or flood irrigation and has a car on it every day. We dig out loose soil, compact aggregate base in lifts, set rebar on chairs and slope the drive away from the house. Where a heavy truck or trailer will park, the slab gets thicker.
All of Camelback East is in the City of Phoenix, so the apron in the street right-of-way follows city standards, 6 inches thick, usually under a city permit. Several neighborhoods here also have HOA or design review, and we prepare the layout, finish and color for it. Lots near the canal can be tight, and we work out truck access at the free on-site estimate. Call (602) 773-1313 for a printed quote.
What’s included
Every Camelback East driveway we pour starts with the ground under it, river and wash alluvium here, and the same list of work goes into the quote:
- New concrete driveways
- Driveway replacement and tear-out
- Extensions, widening and side parking
- RV and trailer parking pads
- Stamped, colored and exposed-aggregate finishes
- Aprons at the street, with the city permit where one is needed
- Caliche, fill and soil checked before forming
- Compacted aggregate base, deeper where you park heavy
- Slope that sends water away from the garage
- Control joints laid out before the pour
- A pour timed and cured for the heat
River and wash alluvium
Layered silt, sand and gravel laid down by the Salt River and the desert washes, across the flood plains and alluvial fans of the central and west Valley.
Compaction done in lifts at the right moisture, with loose or soft soil dug out and replaced, a thicker section anywhere a truck, trailer or RV will park, and grading that keeps runoff off the slab and out from under it. Washes and drainage easements stay open.
What fails here first
- Corners or joints sunk below the next panel
- Ruts or cracks along the tire lines of a driveway
- Gaps opening under the edge of a slab
- Soil washed out along an edge after a monsoon storm
