Concrete Driveways in Allentown, PA
Off-street parking is worth a lot in Allentown. On rowhome blocks in Center City and Old Allentown, parking can be a nightly hunt. A solid concrete pad off your rear alley ends that. In the West End, East Side, and South Side, decades-old driveways crack and heave through Pennsylvania freeze-thaw winters. Conrad General Contracting pours driveways, parking pads, and aprons with our own crew — no subbed-out flatwork. We're licensed and insured (PA HIC #PA154190) and family-owned since 2014. Estimates are free, and financing is available.
Driveway Projects We Pour in Allentown
Replacement is the most common job: tear out the cracked, settled slab and pour fresh on a proper stone base. Behind Center City and Old Allentown rowhomes, we build alley-accessed parking pads sized for one or two cars. For postwar East Side and South Side singles, we widen narrow original driveways to fit today's vehicles. We also pour new aprons and tie-ins where the driveway meets the street. Every pour gets air-entrained concrete, control joints, and pitch that moves water away from the slab. Those details decide whether concrete survives Lehigh Valley winters.
Pouring Concrete in Allentown: How We Work
Driveway work in Allentown often touches the public right-of-way. Aprons and curb cuts need a city work order before construction, and Conrad handles that paperwork. Alley pours behind Center City and Old Allentown homes take staging — we keep trucks moving and neighbors' access clear. Our own crew performs the concrete work, so scheduling stays in our control. Most residential pours wrap in days, weather permitting.

Allentown Concrete Driveway FAQs
Why did my old driveway crack and heave?
Pennsylvania's freeze-thaw cycles are the usual cause. Water gets under the slab, freezes, and lifts it, and poor base prep or drainage speeds up the damage. A proper stone base, control joints, and correct pitch prevent a repeat.
Can I add a parking pad off the alley behind my rowhome?
Often, yes — many Allentown rowhome blocks already park off rear alleys. We verify your lot lines, alley clearance, and city requirements before we quote. The pad needs a sound base and drainage to last.
Can you pour a concrete driveway in winter?
Concrete cures best in moderate temperatures, so spring through fall is the main season here. Cold-weather pours are possible with precautions, but they carry more risk. We schedule around the forecast and tell you honestly if a pour should wait.
