Cheney Concrete and Masonry is the masonry contractor Veradale homeowners call for driveway pavers, tuckpointing, retaining walls, and foundation repair. We have served homes across the Spokane Valley area since 2020 and respond within one business day.
Many Veradale homes still have their original 1960s or 1970s concrete driveways, and after 40 or more Spokane Valley winters, that flatwork is showing cracks and heaving that repair alone cannot fix. Our driveway paver installations flex with seasonal ground movement better than poured concrete and can be repaired panel by panel rather than torn out all at once.
Veradale homes with brick chimneys, fireplace surrounds, or accent brick walls all face the same challenge: Spokane Valley freeze-thaw cycles erode mortar joints steadily, season after season. Repointing open or recessed joints before water gets behind the brick is what prevents a relatively minor maintenance task from turning into a full brick replacement.
Veradale's mix of older ranch-era lots and newer subdivision grades means many properties have slopes or grade transitions where soil moves after spring runoff. A properly engineered retaining wall stops that erosion, protects your driveway and foundation, and gives you more flat, usable yard space.
Spokane Valley's freeze-thaw winters and spring snowmelt seasons put steady pressure on foundations, and ranch homes from the 1950s and 1960s often have shallower footings than current standards require. Sticking doors, uneven floors, or diagonal cracks at window corners are worth having looked at before the next freeze season.
Veradale homeowners with cracked or uneven front walkways face a trip hazard every time it snows, because ice hides in those low spots and settles along cracked seams. A new paver or concrete walkway with a properly prepared base stays flat and drains correctly through multiple Spokane Valley winters.
Older Veradale homes with brick chimneys or brick facade accents often have spalling bricks that have absorbed decades of moisture and UV exposure. Matching the original brick and replacing only the damaged units is a cleaner result than patching, and it keeps moisture from spreading to the surrounding structure.
Veradale sits in the Spokane Valley, which means the same hard winters that affect the whole region hit here directly. Spokane Valley averages around 40 to 50 inches of snow per year, and temperatures cross the freezing point repeatedly from November through March. That freeze-thaw pattern is the primary driver of concrete driveway cracking, mortar joint failure, and foundation movement in this area. What makes Veradale specific is its housing stock: a large share of the neighborhood was built in the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, when construction standards for driveways, walkways, and flatwork were less demanding than today. The original concrete from that era is now 40 to 70 years old, and in a Spokane Valley climate, most of it shows it.
The area also has a growing layer of newer subdivision construction from the 1990s through the present day, which brings its own maintenance needs. Newer homes may have polymer mortars and composite materials that require different repair approaches than the classic masonry on the older ranch homes a few streets over. A masonry contractor in Veradale needs to work across both eras, and know when to repair versus when to replace entirely based on the actual age and condition of the materials - not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Our crew works throughout Veradale regularly, and we understand the local conditions that affect masonry work here. Veradale is an unincorporated community in Spokane County, which means permits for structural work go through Spokane County Building and Planning rather than a city office. We know the county permit process and handle that paperwork on any job that requires it.
Veradale runs along the Sullivan Road and Sprague Avenue corridors, and we know those streets and the neighborhoods that branch off them. Whether your home is near the Spokane Valley Mall area along Sullivan Road or in a quieter street closer to Mirabeau Point Park, our crew has worked in that part of the valley and knows what the homes there typically need.
We also serve the areas that border Veradale. If you have neighbors in Opportunity to the west, or in Spokane Valley proper, we cover those communities on the same routes we run through Veradale every week.
Call us or fill out the contact form and describe what you are dealing with - cracked driveway, failing mortar, a wall that has shifted, or anything else. We respond to every Veradale inquiry within one business day and do not require any technical knowledge from you.
We come out to your Veradale property, look at the full scope of what needs to be done, and write you a clear price before work begins. The estimate is free, and we will explain the repair options in plain terms - including what happens if you wait versus addressing it now.
We schedule the job and show up on time. Most driveway paver and brick repair projects in Veradale are completed in one to three days. We handle any county permit requirements and keep the site clean throughout.
When the work is finished, we walk through everything with you and answer any questions. You have our contact information if anything comes up after we leave, and we stand behind the work we did.
No obligation. We come to your Veradale property, assess the job, and give you a written price before anything starts.
(509) 241-9778Veradale is a census-designated place in Spokane County, sitting inside the broader Spokane Valley area east of the city of Spokane. It is not its own city - it shares services and infrastructure with the surrounding Spokane Valley communities - but it has a distinct residential character that longtime residents identify with. The neighborhood is built primarily around single-family homes, with the older ranch-style houses from the postwar decades sitting alongside newer subdivision construction from the 1990s and 2000s. Most residents own their homes and have for years, which gives the area a stable, long-term quality you can see in how people maintain their properties.
Veradale runs along the Sullivan Road corridor, one of the main north-south spines through the Spokane Valley, and the area is close to community amenities like Mirabeau Point Park. We serve all of Veradale and the surrounding communities, including Spokane Valley to the north and west, with the same crew that works in this part of the valley every week.
