Broom Finish Driveways & Walks

A broom finish is the workhorse of residential concrete and most of what we pour: driveways, garage aprons, sidewalks, patios, porch slabs and generator pads across Knoxville, Maryville, Alcoa, Oak Ridge and Lenoir City. The surface is floated smooth, edged and jointed, then drawn with a broom to leave a fine, even texture that gives grip in the rain and ice without being rough underfoot. Done well it is quietly precise work — the broom lines run straight and all in one direction, the edges and the joints get a smooth trowelled band either side of them, and the slab drains away from the house instead of toward it. Done badly it is obvious for the next thirty years. We pour driveways at the thickness the use actually calls for, put the joints in on a spacing that decides where the slab will crack rather than leaving it to chance, and finish the tie-in to your street or garage so there is no lip to catch a trailer or a wheelchair.
