About Whitney, NV

Whitney sits on the east side of the Las Vegas Valley, a short drive from our base in Sunrise Manor. It isn't its own city. It's unincorporated and run by Clark County, which matters once we get to permits. Most of what we pour here is driveways, back patios and side walkways for homeowners, plus some work for owners of small commercial lots. If you know the Whitney Recreation Center by Tropicana and Boulder Highway, or the Whitney Library branch in southeast Las Vegas, you know the streets we're talking about.

A lot of the concrete we're called out to look at here has been down for years. By then it's cracked, dropped at one end or tipped so water sits by the garage. You can't tell what's under an old slab until it's out, so I build the quote around what I can see and tell you up front what we'll only know once we break it out.

Services in Whitney, NV

  • Concrete driveway building

    Older Whitney driveways usually crack and sink because the dirt under them was never packed. We break out the slab, pack a new base and pour one that drains to the street.

  • Concrete patio construction

    Patios in Whitney backyards get splashed by sprinklers, and a slab troweled smooth turns slick when wet. We give it a broom finish, a light brushed texture so your feet don't slide.

  • Garage floor concrete

    Garage floors here often double as a workshop, and a cracked one catches every jack wheel. We break it out and pour new garage floor concrete flat and smooth.

  • Concrete sidewalk building

    On many Whitney homes, a lifted edge on the front walk is the first thing to trip someone. We cut out the raised sections and pour new walk on a packed base.

  • Concrete parking lot building

    Small commercial lots off Whitney's busier roads see delivery trucks that crack a thin slab. We pour them thicker and set rebar, steel bars that keep cracks from spreading, inside the slab.

  • Concrete cutting

    Sometimes only a sunk corner of a Whitney driveway needs to come out. We saw straight cuts around it so the new pour meets the old slab square and level.

Working in Whitney: the county, your contractor and your price

Because Whitney is unincorporated, the permit question on your job goes to the Clark County Building Department, not a city hall, and if your job needs a permit, the pour waits until the county issues it. There are two things you can check about any contractor before you hire. The Nevada State Contractors Board says every contractor has to be licensed before bidding or even talking price. The county requires a business license to work in unincorporated Clark County, and a company based in one of the cities may need one on top of its own.

Here's how we handle the permit side. We check which office covers your address and whether your job needs a permit, and when it does, we do the paperwork and keep you posted. Your price comes down to how big the slab is, how much old concrete has to come out, how much digging and packing the base needs, how thick it has to be for what drives on it, and the finish you pick. The schedule turns on any permit, the weather and curing, the wait before the slab can take weight, because concrete keeps hardening for days after it looks done. I write all of that into a quote you can read line by line. We pour the same way over in Henderson and Winchester.

Whitney, NV properties and local conditions

Rain doesn't come often here. The normal for the area is a little over four inches a year, measured at a station outside Whitney, so a driveway that slopes the wrong way can go years before anyone notices. Then one hard storm sends water toward the garage or leaves it standing by the front door, and that's when we get the call about pooling water. Before we set a single form, I check where the water runs off your lot, and we pitch the slab away from the house.

Summer heat is the other thing. Concrete poured in the middle of a hot afternoon can dry on top before it's ready, which leaves a weak, dusty surface that chips later. In the hot months we pour early in the day and keep the slab damp while it cures.

What happens after you call us about a Whitney job

  1. Call or send the form

    Call (702) 425-1723 or use the form, and we'll set a time for me to come look. Our phone hours run into the evening every day, weekends included.

  2. I walk and measure the job

    I come out myself, measure, check where the water runs and ask how you'll use the space, so it helps if you're home. You get a written quote that lists what's in it, so you can see exactly what you're paying for.

  3. We plan the pour together

    Once you say yes, we take care of any permit the county requires and pick a pour day with you. We work that day around the heat and the permit, not the other way around.

  4. We pour, finish and clean

    I'm on site with the crew from the first dig to the last sweep. Before we leave, I walk you through when you can step on the new slab and when you can drive on it.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a permit to pour a concrete driveway in Whitney, NV?

Clark County makes that call because Whitney is unincorporated, and the county requires a permit before work that builds, alters or repairs a building or structure, with the owner or an authorized agent applying first. The county's permit page lays out what that covers. We check your address and your job against it before anything gets scheduled.

How long does a Clark County building permit last in Whitney?

A permit expires 180 days from the date it's issued or from its last approved inspection. Each permit stands on its own, so if your project has more than one, each one runs on its own clock. We line up the pour and the inspections so a permit doesn't sit idle.

How do I check that a concrete contractor in Whitney is licensed?

Look them up with the state contractors board, because Nevada requires every contractor to be licensed before bidding on a job or negotiating a price. That covers subcontractors and specialty contractors too, just not someone who only supplies materials. We're licensed and fully insured, and I'm glad to show you before you sign anything.

How much does a new concrete driveway cost in Whitney, NV?

I can't give you a fair number until I've measured, but the biggest swing is usually what's under the old driveway, since a slab that's sunk needs more digging and packing before we pour. If the budget's tight, I'd rather you skip a fancy finish than cut corners on the base, because a good-looking surface on a bad base cracks just the same. Your written quote shows every line so you can decide where the money goes.

How long does a new concrete driveway take before I can drive on it?

Cars have to wait longer than feet do, because the slab is still curing and gaining strength well after it looks hard. You can usually walk on it within days, but driving on it too soon is how you get cracked edges and tire marks. I give you the walk and drive dates for your pour before we start.

What causes a new concrete slab to crack like the old one?

Usually it's the subgrade, the dirt the slab sits on, being raked flat instead of dug out and packed, or control joints that were cut late or skipped. Control joints are grooves cut into the slab so that when concrete shrinks and cracks, it cracks along a line we picked instead of across the middle. Concrete can still get hairline cracks, and I won't tell you otherwise, but a packed base and joints cut on time keep them where they belong.
