Licensed & Insured
A lot of Queens driveway work happens on low-rise residential lots, where the zoning district sets how wide a curb cut can be and how many a lot may have. Getting that wrong can mean redesigning a driveway after it has already been priced.
That is why we look at the lot frontage, the zoning and the existing apron before we quote, so the driveway you approve is one that fits the rules for your property.
Eden Sidewalk Contractors NYC is licensed (NYC DCA #1474625-DCA, GC #612117) and insured, with more than 25 years of concrete work across the city. For everything our driveway service covers, see driveway contractors NYC, and if the sidewalk in front needs attention, our Queens sidewalk contractors can handle it.

Case Studies
Three Queens projects, including a Springfield Gardens job where the curb cut at the driveway entrance was rebuilt along with 400 sq. ft. of damaged sidewalk.
How It Works
Your free written quote comes first, based on your lot and its zoning.
We measure the lot frontage and existing curb cut and confirm the zoning district before quoting.
Any required filings are prepared, then the old surface comes out and a compacted base is built.
Forms are set, 4,000 PSI concrete is poured and finished, and the site is cleared when the work is done.
Driveway Pricing
Queens driveway costs depend on how far the driveway runs from the street, whether the old slab has to come out, and how much base work the lot needs. Here is where most of our driveway jobs land.
Cracked or uneven driveway sections repaired and leveled.
A renewed top surface without changing the driveway’s size.
The old driveway removed and repoured in 4,000 PSI concrete.
A brand-new concrete driveway, base preparation included.
What you pay depends on the size of the job, site conditions, materials, permits, location and scope. The figures above are typical ranges, not a quote. Your written estimate is free.
Queens Zoning
If your Queens home is in an R2X, R3, R4 or R5 district (other than R4B or R5B), the Zoning Resolution limits curb cuts on residential lots that have no more than two parking spaces (ZR 25-631).
On a lot with less than 50 feet of street frontage, only one curb cut is allowed, and it can be no wider than 10 feet including the splays.
Lots with 50 feet or more of frontage can have one curb cut up to 18 feet wide, or two cuts of up to 10 feet each with at least 30 feet of uninterrupted curb between them. Any curb cut built after June 30, 1989 also needs 16 feet of uninterrupted curb space from the next one.
New or widened curb cuts are reviewed by the Department of Buildings, whose Queens office is at 120-55 Queens Boulevard in Kew Gardens. Our guide on driveway repair permits explains when routine repairs need one.

FAQ
Questions Queens homeowners ask us about zoning, partial repairs and driveway drainage.
Look up your address on ZoLa, the NYC Department of City Planning’s online zoning map. The district it shows, such as R3 or R5, decides which curb cut and driveway limits apply, so it is worth checking before any design work starts.
Yes. Where the driveway meets the street, the apron and curb are rebuilt to NYC DOT specifications. At a Springfield Gardens home, we reconstructed the curb cut at the driveway entrance as part of a 400 sq. ft. repair.
Yes. We work on driveways for detached, semi-detached and attached homes across Queens, including narrow driveways that run alongside the house and the aprons where they meet the sidewalk.
If the rest of the slab is sound, damaged panels can be cut out along the joints and replaced on their own. New concrete can look a little lighter than the old slab at first, which is worth knowing before you choose a partial repair.
It should not make drainage worse. The concrete is sloped so water runs toward the street or an approved drain instead of toward the house or a neighbor’s lot.
