Stamped concrete driveway pouring is usually placed with minimal difficulty by backing the Ready-mix truck from the street to the desired location to start placement in the stamped concrete driveway. A 3000 lb psi. concrete mix at a 5.50 depth is recommended with 3/8" or 1/2" steel rebar tied on 4 ft. centers to assure a strong slab. After forming the  concrete driveway the sub grade is compacted using a mechanical device, Jumping Jack, Plate compactor or roller, if not compacted prior to forming. Concrete slabs are only as strong as the ground that is poured on, using steel in conjunction with compacting will greatly enhance the strength and life of the stamped concrete driveway. Concrete driveway can be stamped concrete, stained concrete, regular gray, exposed aggregate or textured. Once the stamped concrete driveway is finished, a curing compound is applied to seal the slab for superior moisture retention, producing a harder concrete driveway.
