Concrete · Same day
What to write the day you send a driveway replacement estimate
A same-day note is optional. It is not one of the three scheduled follow-ups. Use it when you are not sure the driveway replacement estimate for $9,800 arrived, or when one point from the visit is easy to forget.
Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.
Skip it if you already talked it through
If you handed over the paper and walked the job, another email that night is noise. Concrete bids stall on the tear-out, because the new slab price looks high until the old one is hauled away.
What the recap should say
Name what the price includes: removal of the old slab, a new driveway at the thickness we specced, and broom finish. Name what it leaves out: a sealer, and the city approach if the apron is in the right of way. Are we keeping the plain broom finish, or do you want a stamped price? Do not thin the slab to win the follow-up.

Your driveway replacement estimate from Nowak Concrete
Hi Lori, I sent the driveway replacement estimate for $9,800 earlier today. It includes removal of the old slab, a new driveway at the thickness we specced, and broom finish. It does not include a sealer, and the city approach if the apron is in the right of way. Are we keeping the plain broom finish, or do you want a stamped price? Thanks, Pete Nowak Nowak Concrete
