What moves the price in DFW
- Tear-out: breaking out and hauling an old reinforced slab is often the biggest add-on.
- Soil and base: North Texas clay moves with moisture. Good base prep and reinforcement cost more up front and help prevent cracking later.
- Thickness and steel: 5 inches with heavier rebar for trucks costs more than a 4-inch passenger-car drive.
- Apron and city approach: work in the public right-of-way may need a city permit and a heavier section.
- Finish: broom finish is the lowest cost; stamped and colored work costs the most.
- Access: tight backyards or no truck access mean more labor.
Repair instead of replace?
If only a few panels are broken or sunk, replacing those panels can cost far less than a whole new driveway. See driveway repair and driveway replacement.
