Local Concrete Contractor Expertise

Serving Edina's most desirable neighborhoods for two decades, we deliver expert concrete contractor and masonry contractor services for driveways, patios, stamped finishes, and sidewalks.

How We Work

Clear steps from first call to project completion—no surprises.

Our Process

1

Site Visit & Planning

We measure your space, discuss finishes, assess permits, and evaluate drainage. For Edina homes near creeks or Heritage districts, we check compliance upfront.

2

Prep & Base Work

Proper excavation, compacted gravel base, and drainage control. Minnesota frost runs 42+ inches deep—we plan for that from day one.

3

Concrete Pour

Climate-mix concrete poured, floated, and finished. Air-entrained for freeze-thaw durability. Control joints placed strategically.

4

Curing & Sealing

Proper curing with weather protection. Sealant applied to guard against moisture, salt, and seasonal swings before first winter.

You'll always know what's happening next—and when.

Our Services

Concrete and masonry built to handle Edina's freeze-thaw seasons.

Driveways & Aprons

New or replacement driveways with proper slope and drainage. Four-inch thickness standard. Broom finish, colored, or exposed aggregate options. We design aprons to prevent standing water—critical in neighborhoods like South Cornelia and Brookview Heights with mid-century ramblers and varied grading.

  • Air-entrained concrete formulated for Minnesota winters
  • Control joints placed every 4–6 feet to manage cracking
  • Proper base compaction to prevent frost heave and settling

Stamped & Decorative Concrete

Stamped patio

Stamped patio near Minnehaha Creek. Sealed against Minnesota's brutal conditions.

Patios, walkways, and accent pieces with custom patterns and colors. Stamped finishes replicate stone, brick, or wood. Popular in luxury neighborhoods like Rolling Green and Indian Hills. Every project sealed to protect decorative finishes from salt and freeze-thaw damage.

  • Stone, slate, brick, and wood-grain patterns
  • Color stains and borders for curb appeal
  • Professional sealing every 2–3 years (our recommendation)

Sidewalks & Concrete Repair

New sidewalks meeting Edina ADA standards and building code. Replacement of heaved, cracked, or sunken concrete from freeze-thaw damage. Ramps and step repairs. We tackle both residential and light commercial work across all Edina neighborhoods.

Masonry & Retaining Walls

Masonry retaining wall

Retaining wall near Cornelia Park. Built to code with proper drainage and frost footing.

Brick, block, or stone retaining walls. Proper frost footings set below Minnesota's frost line. Drainage and tie-backs installed correctly to prevent blowouts and soil settlement. Perfect for Edina's sloped and hilly neighborhoods.

  • Engineered for soil and water pressure
  • Frost-line installation (Minnesota standard 3–6 feet deep)
  • Decorative or functional designs

Why Local Expertise Matters

Edina's climate and codes demand more than cookie-cutter concrete.

Minnesota's Freeze-Thaw Challenge

Winter temps drop to -30°F or lower. Water seeps under concrete, freezes, expands 9%, and cracks the slab. Improper drainage or shallow base preparation fail fast. We use air-entrained concrete (tiny air bubbles that let water expand safely), proper compaction, and climate-specific mix designs. Your concrete lasts 30–50 years instead of 10–15.

Heritage & HOA Compliance

Country Club neighborhood? Heritage Preservation District rules restrict changes to visible facades. Other neighborhoods have HOA boards that approve colors, patterns, or materials. We know these rules and coordinate permits before breaking ground. No surprises. No stop-work orders.

Edina Building Code & Permits

Edina requires permits for most concrete work. Watershed district (Minnehaha Creek or Nine Mile Creek) approvals may apply depending on location. Grading permits trigger if you move more than 2,500 sq. ft. of soil. We handle permits, inspections, and compliance so you don't.

20 years serving Edina neighborhoods. 500+ projects completed. Warranty on all finish work.

From Morningside (Edina's oldest neighborhood, 1905) to luxury estates near Interlachen Country Club. From tree-shaded Arden Park to rolling green estates with sweeping lawns. From mid-century ramblers in Highlands and Brookview Heights to historic homes in the Country Club District. We've poured driveways on nearly every Edina street.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for a concrete driveway or patio in Edina?

Yes. Edina requires building permits for most concrete work (driveways, patios, slabs, repairs over 40 sq. ft.). Grading permits may also apply if you disturb more than 2,500 sq. ft. of soil. If your property borders Minnehaha Creek or Nine Mile Creek, watershed district approval may be needed. We handle all permits and compliance for you.

I live in the Country Club District. Can I replace my driveway?

Yes, but the Country Club neighborhood is a Heritage Preservation District. Changes to visible facades (including garage facades and driveway aprons) require city architectural approval. We file the approval request and coordinate with your neighborhood before work starts. Driveway replacement typically receives approval if finish and color match or complement the home.

How long will my concrete driveway last in Minnesota winters?

With proper installation and minimal maintenance, 30–50 years or longer. The key is climate-specific concrete mix, proper base compaction, air entrainment (tiny air bubbles for freeze-thaw protection), correct drainage, and sealing every 2–3 years. Poor installation or shallow base fails in 10–15 years. We build ours to outlast.

My stamped patio is cracking. Is this normal?

Minor hairline cracks from concrete shrinkage are normal. But if cracks widen or your patio has heaved sections (one side higher than the other), frost heave or poor drainage is likely. Stamped concrete is especially sensitive to water intrusion. Regular sealing (every 2–3 years) and good drainage prevent major damage. Contact us for a free evaluation.

Can I use salt on my concrete driveway in winter?

Avoid rock salt (sodium chloride). It forces thaw-freeze cycles and causes spalling and scaling. Use sand for traction instead, or calcium chloride deicers (less corrosive). For stamped concrete, sealing is even more critical. If you do use any deicer, use sparingly and never apply to new concrete during the first winter.

Do you handle commercial concrete work?

Yes. We work on commercial slabs, driveway aprons, sidewalks, and loading areas in Edina's retail zones (50th & France, Southdale, Highway 62 corridor). Same quality, same freeze-thaw durability, same permit coordination.
