Overview
A concrete driveway is the first thing people see and the hardest-working surface on your property. Appalachian Excavation & Concrete installs and replaces driveways and sidewalks across Asheville and Western North Carolina using the excavation, base compaction and drainage planning that keeps concrete flat and crack-free through freeze-thaw cycles and heavy mountain rain.
Homeowners choose us because we do not separate the dirt work from the concrete work. The same crew that grades your base pours your slab, so nothing gets lost between subcontractors. That control is why our driveways hold their line and our sidewalks stay level and safe to walk on years after the pour.
Our process is straightforward: we walk the site and confirm slope and water flow, remove old surfaces and unsuitable soil, install and compact a stable stone base, set forms and reinforcement, then pour, finish and cure with proper control joints. You get a written estimate first and a clean job site at the end.
Whether you need a full driveway replacement, a new sidewalk to make an entry safer, or decorative finishes that lift curb appeal, we build to handle daily vehicle traffic and North Carolina weather — and we tell you honestly when a repair will serve you better than a replacement.

If you notice cracking, uneven sections, spalling or trip hazards, it may be time for repair or replacement. We inspect the area and recommend the safest, most cost-effective option.
Foot traffic is usually fine after 24 to 48 hours, and most driveways are ready for vehicles in about seven days depending on weather and mix. We give you exact timing before we pour.
