Default Driveway - Custom Ram Designs

Carlos Ramirez - Custom Ram Designs, 427-0833. He is an artist in concrete. Hand-drew the bird on my driveway based on one of my statues. I had my driveway and walk done in 2014 and it has not needed to be re-sealed yet (Carlos inspected it last year and said it didn't need it yet, will be back next year.) Several houses on my street had Carlos do their drives and I can always pick out his work when I go to other neighborhoods. With so many of the same model homes here the custom work on the driveway and walks gives the house some individuality. Not cheap but you will not regret it.

Whoever you use a word of warning. My neighbor had his done but when his motorcycle leaked gas and he wiped it the paint came off and smeared. He was told oil will do the same just not as fast. Why paint a driveway with paint that will not tolerate gas or oil. Sooner or later someone will park in your driveway with a car that will leak. Beware and ask questions about product being used.

Carlos, with Custom Ram. It is not a painted driveway but colored concrete design put over your existing driveway. Carlos will custom design what you want. If you keep it treated with a clear seal coat every couple of years it will last a long , long time. Yes, do the sidewalk and porch. Is ties it all together and looks great.

We used Florida Deck. It's not paint though, but some sort of epoxy, and it is not slippery when wet. They did an awesome job and we love it!! You can see their work on their website.

Without getting into others peoples business, what is an expected price RANGE for having driveway done + walkway. Just a range.

Take a look at older painted driveways in the "older" villages. We have found that they look terrible after about 5 years and no retouching. If you feel you really need to resurface your driveway, pavers are the way to go. We don't have anything on ours...it's a driveway!

We used Edison ConCreations Inc. who did a fabulous job & they were very friendly & great to work with! We have referred them to several friends, who have also used them, that were very happy with their work! Their phone # is 352-406-8775 & let them know that Doreen Buresh referred you. Good luck!

We just had Edison ConCreations do ours and they did a wonderful job. They give free estimates and have a good crew that knows what they are doing.

Well DUH, that's kind of a no brainer - gas will take off pretty much ANY paint. The same is probably true from battery acid from your golf cart but you have to pay more attention to what you are doing so that doesn't happen.
