What does concrete cost in Dalton?
Local ranges as of 2026-08-16. Every job is quoted after a look at the site.
| Work | Range | Why it varies |
|---|---|---|
| Concrete driveway, plain finish | $8–$16 per square foot | Installed price including base preparation. The spread is thickness, grade and how much cut and fill the lot needs. |
| Concrete patio, plain finish | $8–$15 per square foot | Installed. Access is the main variable, because a back garden a truck cannot reach is a wheelbarrow or pump job. |
| Stamped or coloured concrete | $15–$25 per square foot | Installed. The pattern, the number of colours and whether the border differs from the field all move it. |
| Garage or shop slab | $7–$14 per square foot | Installed. Thickness, reinforcement and whether the edge is thickened or footed set the range. |
| Removal of existing concrete | $2–$6 per square foot | Added to the pour price. Thickness, reinforcement mesh and haul distance decide it, and none is visible from the street. |
| Graded aggregate base, compacted | $1–$3 per square foot | Usually inside the installed price. Worth pricing separately, because it is the step that gets dropped to win a bid. |
