How much will your concrete project cost? This guide from Clarksville Concrete Works pulls together published national price ranges and explains what moves the number up or down in Clarksville. For an exact price, a free on-site estimate is the only reliable answer.
Concrete Driveway Cost
LawnStarter's concrete driveway cost guide (updated December 2025) puts the national average at $6 to $16 per square foot installed, or about $1,885 to $6,475 for a typical driveway, with an average near $3,500.
By finish, the same guide lists:
- Standard gray (broom finish): $4 to $6 per square foot
- Stained: $6 to $12 per square foot
- Stamped: $8 to $15 per square foot
Removing an old driveway before replacement typically adds $1,500 to $2,500, according to the same source.
Concrete Patio Cost
Inch Calculator's concrete patio cost guide gives a typical range of $6 to $20 per square foot depending on design, color, and texture, and an example of about $2,800 for a 12 x 24 foot patio. A plain gray broom-finish slab sits near the low end; stamped finishes add roughly $4 to $18 per square foot; integral color adds about $0.50 to $0.75 per square foot. (That guide was last updated in 2023, so treat its figures as a baseline.)
What Changes the Price in Clarksville
Site prep and soil
Clay soil often means more digging and more crushed-stone base. Sloped lots may need cut and fill or a short retaining wall.
Thickness and reinforcement
Going from 4 to 6 inches for trucks or RVs adds concrete, and rebar costs more than wire mesh.
Finish
Broom finish is the baseline. Stamped, colored, and exposed aggregate finishes add labor and materials. See stamped & decorative concrete.
Access and removal
Tight access may require a concrete pump or buggies. Tearing out and hauling away old concrete is a separate line item.
Size
Larger pours usually cost less per square foot because setup and mobilization are spread over more area, while very small jobs often carry a minimum charge.
How to Compare Quotes
Ask every contractor to list the slab thickness, base depth, reinforcement type, mix strength (psi and air entrainment), joint spacing, finish, sealing, and removal on the quote. Comparing those line by line shows whether a low bid is cheaper or just thinner. See how a concrete driveway should be built.
