Questions to take to a contractor

  • Are all requested areas listed separately in the proposal?
  • Who coordinates surface heights, drainage, and joints where surfaces meet?
  • What access remains available while different areas are installed?

Illustrative request, not a completed project or quote. Your answers replace this example; a contractor confirms the work and price.

What concrete flatwork projects can you request?

You can request a flatwork contractor to coordinate several horizontal concrete surfaces, such as a driveway with connecting walkways, a patio, or garage and shed slabs.

Flatwork means horizontal concrete surfaces such as driveways, patios, and slabs. Retaining walls and foundation work have different scopes. For one specific surface, the driveway or slab contractor page can give you more focused hiring guidance.

What should you include in your concrete flatwork request?

Include the main concrete surface, each additional area, their connections, and access needs in your flatwork request.

  • Choose the primary surface when starting your request.
  • List every additional surface and its intended use in the project details.
  • Describe connections between the surfaces and nearby buildings.
  • Note whether work must be phased to preserve access to your home.

Use the scope builder for one supported surface at a time, then list the connecting areas and shared access needs in your contractor request.

What should you ask before choosing a contractor?

Before choosing a concrete flatwork contractor, ask what work the price includes, how the project will be handled and what remains your responsibility. Use the same questions for each proposal, and confirm experience, licensing where required, insurance and references.

The quote checker covers individual supported surfaces, not a combined flatwork project. Ask for separately priced areas before using it, and review shared preparation and access costs with the contractor.

Our screening policy covers business identity, insurance, applicable licensing, project examples, references, and a sample written quote. Ask for current evidence relevant to your project before hiring. See what contractor screening does and does not cover.

How does contractor matching work?

Contractors for Concrete checks your project type and ZIP code against the specialties and service areas contractors have submitted. Requests are assigned to one contractor at a time, subject to availability. We help with matching; we do not perform the concrete work.

  1. 01

    Describe your project

    Provide the work, location, timing, and contact details in the request form.

  2. 02

    Check matching availability

    Your submission result shows whether a potential match was found or the request needs further attention. An unmatched request is not a confirmed appointment.

  3. 03

    Discuss and decide

    Confirm that the contractor handles your specific work, review their proposal, and decide whether to hire.

Can one request cover several flatwork areas?

One request can describe several flatwork areas. Choose the main project type and list the other areas in the details; confirm the complete scope with any contractor who responds.

Should I use the flatwork page or a specific service page?

Use a specific service page when your project is primarily a driveway, slab, or repair. Use the flatwork page when you need to coordinate several horizontal concrete surfaces.

What can help you prepare before hiring?

The flatwork guide explains which surfaces the term covers. The driveway and slab service pages provide more focused hiring questions for those parts of your project.
