In short: a concrete driveway in Orlando typically costs $8–$18 per square foot installed, as an estimate. It sits between asphalt and pavers on price, with little maintenance once cured.
What makes concrete last
Concrete cracks; the goal is to control where. That comes down to a compacted base, the right thickness for the load, reinforcement where it is called for, and control joints cut at the right spacing so the slab cracks along the joints instead of across the middle.

Concrete price guide
| Job | Estimated price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Concrete driveway | $8–$18 / sq ft | Thickness and finish drive it |
| Paver driveway, for comparison | $10–$30 / sq ft | See brick pavers |
| Asphalt driveway, for comparison | $7–$13 / sq ft | Fastest to install |
Estimates only. Demolition of an old slab, decorative finishes and difficult access add to the price.
Asphalt or concrete?
Asphalt costs less and can be driven on sooner. Concrete needs less upkeep and suits homes where the HOA or the look of the street calls for it. We install both and will price them side by side so you can decide.
Concrete driveways questions
How long before I can drive on new concrete?
Foot traffic in a day or so; cars usually after about a week. We give you dates for your pour.
Why does concrete crack?
Concrete shrinks as it cures and moves with temperature. Control joints give those cracks a place to go.
Do you remove the old driveway?
Yes. Demolition and haul-away are listed as their own line on the estimate.
