I was quoted $80/yard + tax.
thats about $7.80 a sq ft... pretty high... but is it dump?? or pump... /wheel barrow... I get flat work for around $3.50 to $4.00..so about $2720.00 but,... I get pavers for 5 bucks a foot,... some times 5.5 or $6.... I would just do paversIm looking for concrete too in Henderson . I had out centennial for a quote and he wanted 5k for 8 yards of flat work that needs no grading . Just a simple pad for a shed and addition to a pool deck . That will not be happening anytime soon if these are the new normal prices.
LMFAO...... I think you need to get a contractor involved here.... first.. $3600 a yard for concrete????? what do they use???? moon rocks for aggerate and sand from mars????.... next, not bagging on what you did, but what the hell do you plan on walking on the side walk that you went 12'' thick???? even my math is off......16 cubic ft is less than a yard of mud.....I just got poured 16 cubic feed of sidewalks and patio here in idaho. $178 per cubic feet for just the mud. Dang ready mix has gotten expensive
for concrete in Vegas... where??? I needed 2 yards last week, used a mobile mix guy... $105 per yard and 100 buck delivery...it was for a 1 course block wall... CRM in havasu is over a 100 bucks I heard....I was quoted $80/yard + tax.
Oops. I meant to say 178 per cubic yard. Not footLMFAO......

With all due respect Steve I seriously doubt you're apples to apples on this one. $8 SF for a 6" 4500 psi slab with steel is fair IMO. Not sure what Keith is getting in the way of "drainage", but that adds to the cost as well.thats about $7.80 a sq ft... pretty high... but is it dump?? I get flat work for around $3.50 to $4.00..
why not just do pavers???Finally getting somewhere. RCDave got me hooked up with a guy here in town and now I have a reasonable quote for all the work and concrete. 4500psi, 6" slab with #4 rebar, 24"OC with drainage. We're moving in the right direction. Got a few more questions to answer and I'm ready to pull the trigger. Looks like about $14k for the job...not including a cover at this time.
I knew that, just bust'n your balls,... hope all is well for you and your'sOops. I meant to say 178 per cubic yard. Not foot
you're total correct,..$ 4 a ft is for 3.5' rail and dump... as with any thing,... hard to quote with out looking at the project, I have guys that give me a deal because I gave them work when there was none,.. So I think, or belive they charge others more...right now I have 2 12 x 20' driveways to do....it was cheeper to just do pavers.... same with the sabino house.... price for concrete was so close to pavers, I just went the paver route, but when I did nelson,.. every body was out of pavers,...With all due respect Steve I seriously doubt you're apples to apples on this one. $8 SF for a 6" 4500 psi slab with steel is fair IMO.

I have lots of concrete to do in Havasu, what kind of slab do you get for $4 sf?
do you have metal roofing panels...12'rs

Awesome. Its gonna be great! And done rightI know I got the secret squirrel buddy deal hookup (thanks RCDave!), but mine is coming out to about $7.16/sf all said and done. 6", 4500psi, #4 rebar 24" OC, drainage, cut below grade and backfilled with 30 tons of type 2.
How many yards did it come out to?Almost done. Concrete is poured, floated and brushed. He's on his way back now to do the saw cuts and clean up...almost there!
