Concrete Replacement in Bethany
Bethany is a fully built city on the west side of the metro, and most people hiring concrete contractors in Bethany are replacing concrete on homes from its biggest growth years. The population went from 5,705 in 1950 to 12,342 in 1960 and 22,694 in 1970, and was 20,831 in 2020. The city covers only 5.23 square miles, bordered by Warr Acres on the east and Lake Overholser and the Stinchcomb Wildlife Refuge on the west. We replace driveways, walks, steps and patios and pour new slabs and stamped concrete.
A town with deep roots
Bethany was founded on July 28, 1909, by members of the Church of the Nazarene and incorporated on August 8, 1910. The community soon founded Oklahoma Holiness College, now Southern Nazarene University. It reorganized as a first-class city in 1931. On November 19, 1930, an F4 tornado killed 23 people and destroyed 652 buildings. After World War II, defense jobs nearby drove the suburban growth that produced most of today's neighborhoods.
That means much of Bethany's flatwork dates from the 1950s and 1960s. On those lots we see narrow drives that owners want widened, walks lifted by mature trees, stoops that have settled and driveway aprons broken where they meet the street.
Replace or repair
On concrete this old, the base under the slab has often settled or washed out, and the surface has worn thin. When most panels have failed, a full replacement with a new compacted base and correct joint spacing gives you a driveway that will last for decades. When only one or two sections are bad, we replace those and match the broom finish and joint layout to the rest.
Lake side drainage
The west side of Bethany runs down to Lake Overholser and the wildlife refuge. On sloped lots, water from uphill neighbors can run across drives and patios. We check the grade before we form and add a slight crown, a swale or a curb where needed so runoff goes around the slab rather than under it.

Bethany Questions
Is my 1960s Bethany driveway worth repairing?
If only a few panels are bad, section replacement works. If most of the surface is worn or broken, a full replacement with a new base is usually the better value.
Can you widen a narrow driveway?
Usually, yes. We check the lot and setbacks, then add a matching strip or replace the whole drive.
Do you work on sloped lots near Lake Overholser?
Yes. We set the grade so runoff from uphill goes around the slab, adding a swale or curb when needed.
