Concrete services available in Sunset Hills
Sunset Hills incorporated in 1957 and now covers about nine square miles of south St. Louis County, more ground than neighbors like Crestwood or Webster Groves. Lindbergh Boulevard and Interstates 44 and 270 pass through the city, and Laumeier Sculpture Park sits inside its limits. With that much room, properties vary widely, and so do the driveways and yards that go with them.

Retaining wallsIncorporated in 1957
Sunset Hills became a city in 1957, and its homes and commercial properties span the decades since.
About nine square miles
Sunset Hills covers more area than Crestwood or Webster Groves, so no single plan fits every property.
Lindbergh and the interstates
Lindbergh Boulevard and Interstates 44 and 270 run through Sunset Hills, so commercial curb and apron work near them needs careful planning.
Laumeier Sculpture Park
Laumeier Sculpture Park, owned by St. Louis County, sits within Sunset Hills.
Why concrete fails here
Driveway length and yard grade decide how much water a Sunset Hills slab has to handle
The more concrete a property has, the more rain it collects. A long driveway or a large patio gathers water over a wide surface, and if the yard rises or falls, that water picks up speed toward the low point, which is too often the garage or the foundation. Larger pours also need well planned control joints and a consistent base along their whole length, or cracking shows up where the ground changes.
- Full removal and excavation to stable soil when replacement is the right call.
- Proper compacted base rock to reduce settling and cracking.
- Reinforcement options selected for long-term durability in Midwest weather.
- Grading that moves water away from structures and finished surfaces.
Local proof
What Midwest Hardscapes checks before a Sunset Hills project
A stronger service-area page should prove local expertise without feeling like a city-name swap. These are the practical checks that separate a lasting project from a low-bid pour.
Long run planning
On longer driveways, pitch and joints are laid out along the full length so water and movement are handled section by section.
Grade and low points
We identify where the yard falls and where water ends up, then shape the slab so that point is not the garage or the house.
Walls where the ground drops
Retaining walls, steps, and walkways are designed with the concrete when a patio or drive meets a slope.
Outdoor living space
A yard with room to spare can hold patios, fire features, outdoor kitchens, or lighting, laid out around how the space will really be used.

Cost and value
The long-term cost comparison
Low-bid installation: less expensive upfront, but shallow base work, poor grading, and weak reinforcement can force early repairs or full replacement.
Built-to-last installation: proper base preparation, reinforcement, consistent thickness, and drainage planning cost more to do correctly, but protect the surface for decades.
Our goal is simple: build concrete and hardscapes that enhance curb appeal, handle St. Louis weather, and avoid the shortcuts that create failures five to ten years later.
Installation process
A cleaner way to replace concrete in Sunset Hills
Assess
Inspect the failed surface, drainage, access, use, and whether repair or replacement is the honest recommendation.
Remove
Take out failed concrete and expose the conditions that caused the original cracking, heaving, or settling.
Prepare
Build the compacted base, set forms, plan slope, and place reinforcement before concrete arrives.
Pour
Install consistent concrete thickness, finish the surface, cut clean control joints, and manage site cleanup.
Protect
Review curing, sealing, traffic timing, and maintenance so the new surface gets the best start.

FAQs
Sunset Hills concrete questions
Why do long driveways crack in the middle?
A long slab moves with temperature and with the ground under it. Without enough control joints, a consistent base, and correct pitch, cracks form wherever the stress collects.
Can a patio be built where my Sunset Hills yard slopes?
Yes. A sloped yard may need a retaining wall, steps, or a built up base, and drainage is planned so water moves around the patio rather than under it.
Can you add an outdoor kitchen or fire feature with a new patio?
Yes. Midwest Hardscapes designs outdoor kitchens, fire features, and outdoor lighting, and they can be planned together with the patio.
What concrete services are available in Sunset Hills?
Driveway replacement, concrete patio replacement, pool decks, concrete floors, curb replacement, and hardscape design, plus stamped concrete, paver patios, and ponds and water features.
Do Sunset Hills concrete projects need a permit?
Some driveway, wall, curb, and drainage related work may need permit review depending on the location and scope. The estimate identifies likely requirements before scheduling.
