Hollywood's 1920s beach cottages and newer west-side subdivisions all share the same enemy: concrete that cracks, settles and floods under summer downpours and salt air. Fort Lauderdale Concrete has been fixing driveways, sidewalks and pool decks across Hollywood (33020) and the surrounding Fort Lauderdale area for years, and we know exactly why your concrete fails here.
Whether you need a new driveway that won't sink into the sand, a sidewalk replacement that sheds water instead of holding it, or a pool deck that stays slip-resistant after a tropical storm, we show up on time, do the work right, and leave your property cleaner than we found it. Call us at (754) 218-2497 for a free estimate.
Concrete in Hollywood (33020)
Hollywood sits on sand over porous limestone with a very high water table fed by canals and the New River. Your driveway or patio doesn't fail because of poor workmanship, it fails because the ground beneath it shifts and settles when rain and tide push water up through soft, compacted base material. We see this every day: slabs that sink at the joints, driveways that crack in straight lines where the grade drops, and walkways that become trip hazards after a few years of settling. Older homes near the beach and the newer subdivisions west of I-95 are equally vulnerable, and the salt air accelerates spalling and discoloration on unsealed concrete.
Our team understands Hollywood's terrain. We compact base material properly, slope surfaces to shed water instead of holding it, and recommend sealing to protect against UV, algae and mildew that blacken concrete under year-round heat. We also know local permit rules, HOA requirements, and the tight lot access that comes with narrow driveways under old banyans and royal palms in Sailboat Bend and Colee Hammock, or the wider modern lots west of I-95 where proper drainage and a solid base make all the difference.

How a Job Works in Hollywood
We start with a free on-site visit. We look at the ground, the slope, existing drainage, access for our equipment, and what's causing the problem. If your driveway is sinking, we check whether it's settling base or a high water table. If your sidewalk is cracked, we assess whether it's a base failure or tree roots. We take photos, measure, and give you a clear estimate and timeline. No surprises.
On the day of the work, we arrive with crew and equipment ready to go. If you're in a neighborhood with HOA rules or tight lot access (common in older Hollywood), we coordinate around those constraints. We remove old concrete if needed, prepare and compact the base, pour or resurface to the right slope for drainage, and finish to your specification (broom finish for slip resistance, smooth trowel, or decorative stamping). We work efficiently so you're not disrupted for days.
Before we leave, we clean up all debris, sweep the site, and walk through with you to confirm the work meets your expectations. You'll have a solid, properly graded surface that sheds water and will last.
Concrete costs in Hollywood depend on size, access, existing condition, and urgency. A typical driveway replacement in Hollywood runs from $6 per square foot for a basic pour; sidewalk and walkway work starts at $6 per square foot; pool decks (common in Hollywood's subdivisions) run $8 per square foot and up because they need slip-resistant finish and proper drainage. If you're resurfacing existing concrete instead of replacing it, costs drop to $3 to $4 per square foot. Stamped or decorative finishes start at $10 per square foot. Concrete sealing, which we strongly recommend in Hollywood's salt air and heat, runs $0.75 per square foot and extends the life of your investment by years. The biggest cost factors are square footage, whether we're removing old concrete, site access, and whether the job is routine or urgent (storm damage, for example, costs more and moves faster).
