Explore costs for refinishing concrete driveways

Structurally, concrete driveways can last for decades, but esthetically, they could be due for a face-lift after just a few years. A new article, published by ConcreteNetwork.com, has compiled a list of the numerous decorative concrete options available for upcoming fall driveway renovation projects, along with their associated costs. Concrete driveway cost can be broken down into three categories: basic, mid-range and advanced depending the techniques used. At first glance, concrete driveways offer the luxury of a long-lasting surface that is durable and wear-resistant in the harshest environments, along with little required maintenance. Digging deeper, concrete driveways offer design and customization options allowing for one-of-a-kind creations.

At $8 to $12 per square foot, the basic level concrete driveway cost is defined as an economical upgrade. These upgrades often include a single coloring method, a textured finish and more. At the mid-range level, driveways often include use of two or more colors, engraving techniques and possibly a border. At $18 and up per square foot, driveways incorporating hand-applied stains, borders, multiple patterns and more intricate techniques make up the advanced level.

Updating an existing concrete driveway doesn't have to be expensive, but it can sure look the part.
