2026?<\/h2>\n<p>Concrete cost per square foot depends on thickness, finish, and whether you want material only or a finished job. A 4 inch broom finish driveway lands at $7 to $12 per square foot installed. A 4 inch patio spreads wider, $5 to $15, because patio labor varies more by region. Add reinforcement at 6 inches and the rate climbs to $10 to $14. The honest answer is a range tied to a job.<\/p>\n<h2>What does a 4 inch concrete driveway cost per square foot?<\/h2>\n<p>Two local contractors post a dollar figure for their own driveway work.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sw__table-wrap\">\n<table class=\"sw__table\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"col\">Publisher<\/th>\n<th scope=\"col\">Basis<\/th>\n<th scope=\"col\">Per square foot, installed<\/th>\n<th scope=\"col\">Captured<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Local Concrete Contractor (Charlotte, NC)<\/td>\n<td>Broom finish, 4 inch pour<\/td>\n<td>$10 to $12<\/td>\n<td>Sept 5, 2026<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>DirtRock Dallas (Terrell, TX)<\/td>\n<td>Standard poured concrete, 4 inch with rebar<\/td>\n<td>$7 to $10<\/td>\n<td>Sept 5, 2026<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>Blend the two and a 4 inch driveway runs $7 to $12 per square foot installed, matching our own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.simplywise.com\/blog\/cost-to-pour-concrete-driveway\/\">cost to pour a concrete driveway<\/a> guide.
