New Hope is a community in Paulding County, north of our home base in Douglasville. Many properties in the area have gravel driveways and parking areas, and a lot of owners eventually decide to replace them with concrete. Quick Mix Concrete can help with that project and many others, sending a truck that carries raw materials and mixes them on your land.

From Gravel to Concrete

Gravel goes down quickly, but it washes out, ruts in wet weather and tracks into the house. A concrete driveway or parking pad offers a clean, durable surface that is easier to maintain. Converting from gravel usually starts with grading and compacting the existing base, adding material where needed and setting forms. The existing gravel can often serve as part of the base, though your contractor should make that call.

Aprons and Turnarounds

Even if you keep most of a long gravel drive, paving the apron where it meets the road and any turnaround near the house can make a big difference. These areas take the most wear from turning tires, and they are where gravel tends to scatter into the road or wash into ditches. A concrete apron also gives a cleaner transition between the pavement and your driveway.

Why Mixing at Your Property Helps

Rural sites often sit a good distance from concrete plants. With a drum truck, travel time cuts into the concrete’s workability. Our volumetric truck carries the cement, sand, stone and water separately and does not combine them until it reaches you, so a long drive to New Hope does not shorten your crew’s window.

Other Common Projects

Beyond driveways, New Hope property owners pour slabs for barns and workshops, pads for equipment and trailers, sidewalks, patios and footings for additions. A single delivery can often cover more than one of these if they are ready at the same time.

Certified Material for Public Work

If your project involves a county road or another public right of way, the plans may call for GDOT DOT-A certified concrete, which we supply.

Planning Your Order

A driveway takes a fair amount of concrete, so measure carefully. Our concrete calculator helps you estimate cubic yards for each section. Look over the mix strengths on our Pricing page as well.
