Permit counts on this page are Ohio-scoped: they come only from real matched public-record permits — 5,004 permits joined to 554 contractors across 22 county jurisdictions (in Ohio: Cuyahoga, Franklin, and Hamilton). No synthetic data is used; coverage of additional counties and states is in progress, and ProFix is honest about that limitation on every leaderboard page. The Ohio TL;DR, pricing, and FAQ below are written for Ohio homeowners as a worked example — confirm your own state's licensing and permit rules before you hire.

Hiring checks for Ohio concrete contractors

  • Concrete is not state-licensed in Ohio — use ACI and NRMCA certifications, workers' comp, and $1M general liability as the trust signals.
  • Insist on 4-inch minimum thickness with rebar or wire-mesh reinforcement; thinner pours fail in freeze-thaw within 5 years.
  • Schedule pours late April through October — pour temperature must be above 50°F for at least 3 days.
  • Concrete has the widest price variance of any home-services trade in Ohio; collect three written quotes before signing.

Frequently asked: Ohio concrete contractors

Is concrete state-licensed in Ohio?

No. Ohio does not license concrete contractors at the state level. The substitute trust signals are ACI and NRMCA certifications, workers' comp coverage, $1M general liability, and verifiable permit pulls where the local code requires one (retaining walls, structural foundations, right-of-way work).

How much does a concrete driveway cost in Ohio?

A standard 2-car concrete driveway runs $4,500-$8,500 in most Ohio metros. Decorative stamped or colored work runs $7,000-$14,000. Insist on 4-inch minimum thickness with rebar or wire-mesh reinforcement — thinner pours fail in freeze-thaw within 5 years.

When is the best time to pour concrete in Ohio?

Late April through October. Pour temperature must be above 50°F for at least 3 days; under-cured concrete cracks in the first frost. Spring is ideal for replacement work; fall is the right window for sealing existing concrete before winter.

Why does concrete pricing vary so much?

Concrete has the widest price variance of any home-services trade in Ohio. Form work, rebar tonnage, removal of the existing slab, sub-base preparation, control joints, and finish quality all swing the number. Always get three written quotes and compare line-by-line, not by bottom total.
