Concrete Contractors in Moyock, NC

Moyock sits on North Carolina Highway 168 just south of the Virginia state line, at the end of the Chesapeake Expressway toll road, in a census-designated place of about 10.4 square miles of land. It has become a commuter town for Hampton Roads, and that growth keeps concrete contractors busy with driveways, patios, walkways and slabs for new homes. The 2020 census counted 5,154 people in this Currituck County community, and we make the trip from Suffolk for jobs here.

Low ground, slow runoff

Moyock's listed elevation is 10 feet. On low, level lots, water does not run off on its own; it has to be directed. For every concrete job here we: 1. Shoot grades to find the true low points on the lot. 2. Set the slab so it slopes toward a safe outlet, like the street, a swale or a ditch. 3. Keep the top of patios and walks below door thresholds and weep holes. 4. Use a compacted stone base that lets water move under the slab rather than lifting it.

Building the new-home basics

Many Moyock homes are recent, and owners want to add what the builder did not. Common projects:

• Driveway widening or extensions for extra cars, boats and trailers.
• Backyard patios, broom finished or stamped concrete.
• Walkways from the driveway to the backyard gate.
• Concrete slabs for sheds, detached garages and hot tubs.
• Concrete repair for early cracks or settled corners on builder slabs.

North Carolina rules, our process

Moyock is an unincorporated community, not a town, so there is no town hall in the permit chain; Currituck County and North Carolina rules apply instead of Virginia's. We check what Currituck County requires for your project, such as permits for new driveway connections or work close to the road. If your subdivision has an HOA, we review its rules on driveway width and patio placement with you before we finalize the design.

Stamped concrete for outdoor living

A stamped patio gives a new backyard a finished look without the shifting and weeds that can come with loose pavers. We choose a pattern, add color, stamp the slab while it is workable, and seal it once it cures. On level lots, we make sure the patio still has enough slope to drain, even if the yard around it does not.

A little local history

Moyock has an unusual past. In the 1930s, a dog racing club moved here from Norfolk County, Virginia, about half a mile south of the line. The site later became the Dog Track Speedway, which was paved and lengthened in 1964 and hosted seven NASCAR races from 1962 to 1966. It closed in 1966. Moyock is about 25 miles south of downtown Norfolk.

Commuter-friendly scheduling

Moyock is described as a commuter town, so many owners are at work all day. We plan the job so you know which days the driveway will be out of service and where to park in the meantime. After the pour, we tape off the slab and leave you clear dates for walking and driving on it. A typical driveway needs about a week before a car goes on it.

If you have a boat, trailer or RV, tell us early. Heavier vehicles need a thicker slab and more reinforcement, and we would rather plan for that up front than see the slab crack under a trailer tongue later.
