How Much Does a Concrete Driveway Cost in Missouri?

If you’re in Platte County or the Northland and pricing out a new concrete driveway in 2025, here’s the honest breakdown of what actually drives the cost — and what ‘cheap’ quotes are usually missing.

Square-foot pricing in Missouri (2025)

Standard broom-finish concrete driveways in the Northland generally run $8–$14 per square foot, all-in (demo, base, pour, finish, joints, clean-up).

Stamped or decorative concrete driveways run $14–$22 per square foot depending on pattern complexity, color, and sealing.

A typical 2-car driveway is around 600 square feet, putting most replacement projects between $4,800 and $8,400 for standard concrete.

What changes the price

Thickness: 4” is standard for cars, 5–6” with rebar is necessary for trucks, RVs, or trailer parking.

Reinforcement: rebar costs more than fiber mesh but is essential for heavy-use surfaces.

Tear-out: removing existing concrete adds $1.50–$3.00 per square foot depending on access and thickness.

Sub-base prep: poor existing soil may need additional base material — important to budget for.

What ‘cheap’ quotes usually skip

If you’re getting a $5/sf quote, ask whether it includes proper sub-base compaction, rebar reinforcement, saw-cut control joints, and haul-away. Most don’t — and those are the items that decide whether your driveway lasts 5 years or 30.
