Concrete Flatwork Contractor in Fargo, ND
Driveways, sidewalks, patios and slabs — prepped right underneath so they stay flat and solid through our winters.
What we handle
Cracked, heaved, settling concrete almost always traces back to one thing: poor prep. Because we excavate too, OARA gets the part most people never see exactly right — the sub-base, compaction and drainage under your slab — so your flatwork stays flat and solid through Red River Valley freeze-thaw.
We pour new driveways, sidewalks, patios and slabs, and handle full removal and replacement of failing concrete. Clean lines, proper slope for drainage, and a finished surface that holds up.

The OARA difference
Excavation-grade prep
Properly excavated, graded and compacted base so your slab won't heave or settle.
Drainage built in
Correct slope so water runs off your concrete instead of pooling or freezing on it.
Clean removal & haul-off
Old, broken concrete demoed and hauled away so the new pour starts on solid ground.
Straight lines, solid edges
Tidy forming and finishing for a result that looks as good as it performs.
How the job goes

Concrete Flatwork FAQs
Do you do new concrete or just removal?
Both. We pour new driveways, sidewalks, patios and slabs, and we also remove and replace existing concrete that's cracked, heaved or settling.
Why does concrete crack and heave here?
Our freeze-thaw cycles and clay soils are brutal on poorly prepped slabs. The fix is in the base — proper excavation, compaction and drainage — which is exactly where our excavation background pays off.
Can you extend my existing driveway?
Yes. We match the layout and slope so the addition ties in cleanly and drains correctly.
How long before I can use it?
Concrete needs time to cure. We'll give you specific guidance for foot and vehicle traffic based on your pour and the weather.
