Concrete
Concrete work, priced and built for Osceola County
New pours, tear-out and replacement, widening to the 24-foot county limit, aprons and turnarounds. 4 inches at 3,000 psi for cars, 6 inches with #4 rebar for boats and RVs.
60 and 80 mm concrete pavers, clay brick and permeable systems over a 6-inch compacted limerock base, with borders, bands and a concrete apron where the county requires one.
Clean, re-sand with polymeric sand, seal with a breathable or wet-look product, and a schedule for re-sealing that matches how much rain the deck sees.
Sunken areas by the garage or the downspout, failed edge restraint, ant hills and weeds in the joints, matching replacement pieces for discontinued lines.
Why the ground under Kissimmee changes how we build
Most of Osceola County sits on Smyrna, Myakka and Immokalee fine sands: flat, poorly drained, with a wet-season water table about 12 inches down (USDA Soil Data Access, county FL097). The Polk County ridge around Davenport, Haines City and Lake Wales is Candler sand, deep and excessively drained. The two need different base prep, so we look up your soil unit before we price the job.
On flatwoods sand the base has to be compacted in lifts and the slab has to shed water, because the ground under it will be saturated for weeks every summer. A driveway that sits in a low spot on Basinger sand (water table at the surface in June) needs a raised section and a swale, not just more concrete. On the ridge the problem flips: Candler sand is so free-draining that a base placed dry will not compact, so we wet it, compact it, and check it with a probe before any rock goes down. We explain the difference in our flatwoods-versus-ridge guide, and the Permit & Jurisdiction Finder tells you which county and which soil group your address falls in.
Rain is the other constraint. The Kissimmee 2 NOAA station averages 15.8 days with measurable rain in June, 16.7 in July and 17.7 in August, with 12 or 13 of those days over a tenth of an inch. From October to April the count drops to 6 or 7. That is why our summer pours start at first light and are usually finished and covered before the sea-breeze storms build after 2 p.m. The Pour Calendar shows the month-by-month numbers and the pour window we recommend.
Permits
Who issues your permit depends on which side of a line you live on
Inside Kissimmee city limits, driveway and sidewalk work goes through the City's Engineering Division on the EnerGov portal. In unincorporated Osceola County, §22-50.6 requires a county driveway permit for any new or widened residential driveway and caps width at 24 feet. In St. Cloud, pavers on a driveway are referred to Public Works rather than the Building Department. Polk County has its own rules and a paver release form.

Same driveway application when in the right-of-way
Florida's new HB 803 exempts single-family work valued under $7,500 from a building permit from July 1, 2026, with exceptions for structural, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, gas and flood-zone work, and only after a written exemption request. A small pad may qualify; a driveway in the right-of-way still needs its driveway permit. Details and the caveats are in our HB 803 guide.

Service area
Where we work across Osceola County and the Polk ridge
We estimate within roughly 40 miles of downtown Kissimmee. Osceola County is home turf, and the resort corridor and the Polk ridge along US-27 and I-4 are where most of the rest of the work is. The table gives each place's straight-line distance and a rough weekday drive estimate, so you can see where you sit relative to us before you call.
Population: Florida EDR 2025 estimates for incorporated cities; CDPs and communities have no municipal figure.

HOA and ARC rules we have read so you don't have to
Poinciana's Design Control Board (APV) calls for concrete, asphalt or brick pavers on driveways and treats a silent 30 days as a denial. Solivita requires replacement driveways in the original builder's style and materials. Solterra caps expanded driveways at three cars wide and bans painted or stained concrete. Celebration's ARC meets on the third Monday. Bellalago reviews twice a month through ConnectResident.
We quote the actual criteria, with section numbers, on each community page: Association of Poinciana Villages (APV), Solivita, Celebration (CROA), Bellalago & Isles of Bellalago and Solterra Resort. For Storey Lake, Tapestry, Reunion, ChampionsGate, Windsor Hills and Providence we have management contacts but not verified written criteria yet, so we say so rather than guess. The HOA / ARC Packet Checklist assembles what those boards typically ask for: site plan or survey, product sample, color, pattern, drainage note and the installer's insurance certificate.
Guides
Guides written for this county, not for the whole country
Iron in well water oxidizes on concrete and pavers. How to tell rust from tannin, oil and efflorescence, what removes each, and how to stop the sprinkler from re-staining.
Send the form, or email hello@kissimmeeconcrete.com with a photo and rough dimensions. We visit, measure, check the soil and the access, and send a written proposal that lists thickness, PSI, reinforcement, base depth and drainage so you can compare it line by line with anyone else's.
Yes. Kissimmee and St. Cloud are the two cities we estimate in most, and they have different permit offices: Kissimmee's Engineering Division handles driveway and sidewalk applications on EnerGov, while St. Cloud's Building Department covers patios and decks and sends driveway pavers to Public Works. Between them, unincorporated Osceola County follows §22-50.6 for driveways.
What should I check before hiring anyone for this work?
Insurance, in the form of a certificate sent by the agent rather than a photo. The exact business name, checked on Sunbiz. Two or three addresses of jobs finished more than two years ago that you can drive past. And a written contract that states thickness, mix, reinforcement, base depth, joint layout and drainage. Our guide walks through all four.
How soon can you come out?
We schedule site visits within two business days in Kissimmee, St. Cloud, Celebration, Poinciana and Buenaventura Lakes, and within three for the Polk ridge and the Four Corners resort communities. Spring is our busiest season: Google Trends for the Orlando market shows paver interest peaking in April and May every year, so book early if you want a pool deck done before summer.
Do you pour in the rainy season?
Yes, with an early start. June through September average 14 to 18 rain days a month at the Kissimmee 2 station, almost all of it afternoon storms. Forms and base are prepared the day before, trucks arrive at first light, and the slab is finished and covered before the storms build. If the morning forecast shows more than a 60 percent chance of rain before 2 p.m., we move the pour.
Concrete or pavers for a driveway?
Concrete costs less up front ($8.50 to $13.50 per square foot for a broom finish in our current index) and gives a clean, uniform look. Pavers cost more ($14 to $22 for standard concrete pavers) but can be lifted and relaid after settling or a utility repair, and many HOAs on the Osceola and Polk resort corridor prefer them. Our decision tool walks through use, budget, HOA, heat and resale in eight questions.
Do you work with HOAs and property managers?
Every week. We prepare the packet the architectural review committee asks for (survey or site plan, product and color sample, pattern, drainage note, our insurance certificate) and we schedule around guest turnovers for vacation rentals in Four Corners, ChampionsGate, Reunion and Windsor Hills.
What is the Kissimmee Concrete Cost Index?
A quarterly table of installed price ranges for 18 concrete, paver and coating items in the Kissimmee and Osceola County market, with the method published and the data downloadable as CSV and JSON under a CC BY 4.0 license. The Q3 2026 release is a market composite from supplier price lists and published regional ranges; as anonymized job quotes accumulate they will be added to the sample and the release notes will say so.
Who does the work and who owns this site?
Kissimmee Concrete is the Osceola County and Polk ridge service brand of a Central Florida concrete and paver contractor; the crews that install your job are the same crews behind our sister brands in West Orange and South Lake counties. The legal entity, insurance and warranty terms are listed on the About page and in every written proposal.
