Three stalls across usually means a driveway around 30 feet wide by 24 feet deep, which is 720 square feet, the size loaded above. At this footprint you are firmly out of small-pour territory. The price follows the area, but the planning is what separates a clean job from a cracked one.
What 720 square feet costs at the example rates
| Finish | Example rate | 720 sq ft comes to |
|---|---|---|
| Standard broom | $9 / sq ft | $6,480 |
| Colored | $12 / sq ft | $8,640 |
| Stamped | $16 / sq ft | $11,520 |
Those are the example rates from the calculator above, there to give the math a shape. Local material prices and crew costs set the real rate.
Joints and sequencing decide how this slab ages
A slab this size will crack. The question is whether it cracks along sawed or tooled control joints in a tidy grid, or wherever it feels like. Good layout breaks 720 square feet into panels sized so no cut is an afterthought, with joints lining up on corners and re-entrant angles where cracks start.
The pour itself takes sequencing too. That is a lot of concrete to place, screed, and finish before it sets up, so crew size and truck timing matter. If two trucks are involved, the second needs to arrive before the first load goes off. This is the kind of job where a contractor earns the rate on planning, not just placing.
Truck access and the add-ons
At this size, where the truck can park changes the labor. A clear shot with the chute reaches most of the slab. If the mixer cannot get close, you are pumping or wheeling 720 square feet worth of concrete, and the quote has to carry that.
The standard add-ons scale with the area. At the example numbers: tear-out of an old driveway at $4 per square foot adds $2,880, rebar or mesh at $1.50 adds $1,080, and site prep at $2 adds $1,440.
For different dimensions, use the concrete driveway cost calculator, or see the 2-car driveway breakdown for the more common size. Contractors setting their own rates can start with what to charge per square foot for flatwork.
