DiamondDrive, the exclusive premium driveway mix. Well-designed homes deserve beautiful concrete driveways and walkways that will stand the test of time. The DiamondDrive exclusive premium driveway mix makes it possible – even in our challenging climate. DiamondDrive’s unique Tri-Tech formula offers triple protection for driveways. Our blend of premium materials creates denser, more durable concrete with greater resistance to water penetration, cracking and popouts.
Superior Strength
DiamondDrive delivers the 32 MPa compressive strength recommended by CSA for home builders working in our climate.
Built-in Resistance to Cracks and Pop-outs
DiamondDrive’s design prevents flaws that compromise the looks and performance of most concrete driveways.
Resists Moisture and Chemicals From Day One
Unlike standard concrete, DiamondDrive gives the concrete protection similar to sealed concrete from day one, protecting the driveway from damage during the first year of service. Sealer applied by the homeowner is recommended before the second winter to keep the driveway in ideal shape.
Durability
DiamondDrive is designed for a long service life with minimal maintenance, yielding a lowered life cycle cost.
