How Much Does a Concrete Driveway Cost in South Carolina?

Straight ranges for Upstate homeowners — and what actually drives the number.

Quick cost ranges

Driveway typeTypical Upstate range
Standard broom finish$6 – $10 / sq ft
Exposed aggregate$8 – $14 / sq ft
Stamped / decorative$12 – $20 / sq ft

A typical two-car driveway (about 600 sq ft) runs roughly $3,600–$6,000 for a standard finish. Bigger, decorative, or tricky-access jobs cost more.

What drives the price

  • Size & thickness. Square footage plus 4" vs. 5–6" for heavier loads.
  • Tear-out. Removing and hauling an old driveway adds $1–$3 / sq ft.
  • Base & grading. Sloped or poorly draining Upstate lots need more prep.
  • Finish. Broom is cheapest; exposed aggregate and stamped cost more.

Compare quotes fairly

Cheap bids often skip base prep, thickness, or reinforcement — the things that make a driveway last. Ask every contractor about sub-base compaction, thickness, and control joints, not just the total. We give you a clear written estimate that spells it out.
