How Much Does Concrete Cost in Baton Rouge?
Real 2026 pricing from Parish Concrete Contractors for driveways, patios, shop pads and slabs, including what is in the price and what costs extra.
- Concrete from $6.05 / sq ft
- 3,500 PSI with fiber included
- The proposal price is the price
Concrete price per square foot.
Our broom-finish concrete is priced by the size of the slab. The bigger the pour, the lower the price per square foot. These prices are for typical residential properties with limited grade changes.
| Slab size | Broom finish |
|---|---|
| Under 600 sq ft | $8.15 / sq ft |
| 600–800 sq ft | $7.45 / sq ft |
| 800–1,000 sq ft | $7.00 / sq ft |
| 1,000–1,750 sq ft | $6.60 / sq ft |
| 1,750+ sq ft | $6.05 / sq ft |
What that price includes
- A commercial 3,500 PSI mix with fiber, included automatically
- Excavation
- Framing (forms)
- The pour and a broom finish
- Expansion joints where required
There is a $2,500 minimum job. The concrete plant charges a light load fee on deliveries under 6 yards, so small pours cost more per foot to deliver.
What can add to the price.
| Add-on | Price |
|---|---|
| Tear-out and haul-off of existing concrete | $3.50 / sq ft ($500 minimum) |
| Campers, RVs, boats or trailers parked on it | +$1.25 / sq ft |
| Stained finish | +$7 / sq ft |
| Stamped & stained finish | +$27 / sq ft |
| Steel highway mesh or rebar | Quoted by your project manager |
Properties with extensive grade changes need custom pricing. Rebar is not included in the base price. If a slab will carry commercial vehicles, heavy trailers or RVs, we recommend adding steel highway mesh or rebar, and your project manager quotes it at the walkthrough.

How much does a concrete driveway cost in Baton Rouge?
Most driveways fall between $7.00 and $8.15 per square foot for broom finish, depending on size. A 20 x 36 driveway is about $5,364. Tear-out of an old driveway adds $3.50 per square foot. See concrete driveways.
How much does a shop pad cost?
Larger pads get the lowest rates: $6.60 per square foot from 1,000 to 1,750 sq ft and $6.05 per square foot above that. A 30 x 40 shop pad is about $7,920. See shop pads.
Why is there a $2,500 minimum?
The concrete plant charges a light load fee on deliveries under 6 yards, and every job needs the same crew, forms and setup no matter how small it is.
Is rebar included?
Fiber is included in every pour. Rebar is not included in the base price. Your project manager quotes it on request, and we recommend steel highway mesh or rebar for slabs that will carry commercial vehicles, heavy trailers or RVs.
Will my price go up after you start?
No. The proposal price is the price unless you change the scope of the job.
