Cumberland County concrete experience

Quick answer

Vander is a small community with no town hall, so a pour here goes through the Cumberland County permit desk in downtown Fayetteville. Fayetteville Concrete Pros is one of the concrete contractors in Vander, NC who read the county checklists. We check the 400 square foot accessory line and the soil, then write a free estimate.

No town hall in Vander: the county desk is downtown

Vander is a census designated place in Cumberland County, east of Fayetteville and south of Eastover, with Interstate 95 forming its western edge. About 1,388 people live on 3.72 square miles at roughly 128 feet of elevation. There's no mayor and no town inspector. The permit counter is Cumberland County Building Inspections and Permitting in the Historic Courthouse in downtown Fayetteville.

Applications go through the county's self-service portal. Code Enforcement handles zoning permits as well, and the county's All Other Permits page lists the residential checklists. They cover additions, new homes, decks and porches, fences, solar and accessory buildings. There's no separate checklist for a plain driveway, sidewalk or patio slab, so for flatwork you'll need to phone the county.

Confirm early whether your parcel sits inside Fayetteville's limits or its extraterritorial area, since that can change the rules. Our permit guide compares the counters.

The 400 square foot and 12 foot line for shop and shed slabs

The county splits accessory buildings by size. A building less than 400 square feet and less than 12 feet in any direction needs the zoning permit only. A building larger than 400 square feet or longer than 12 feet in any direction also needs the building permit. Both come with a site plan or plot plan drawn to engineering scale, showing every property line and setback.

The 12 foot rule snags small projects, and as concrete contractors in Vander, NC, we catch it before the slab is poured. A 10 by 20 foot storage shed is under 400 square feet but runs longer than 12 feet in one direction, so it lands on the heavier side of the line. Settle the permit tier before you order a building kit.

If the owner and the applicant are different people, the county wants an owner affidavit. Where the lot has a septic system or a well, Environmental Health has to sign off too. We bring a tape to the site walk and mark the pad against the lines on your plot plan. Slab pricing runs $7 to $12 per sq ft. A 20 by 20 pad is 400 sq ft, so $2,800 to $4,800, settled in a free written estimate. The slab page has the thickness details.

Candor sand next to Johnston loam: Vander's two kinds of ground

Vander mixes deep Sandhills sand with creek-bottom soil. Soil maps for 30 spots found Candor sand at 9, Johnston loam at 7, Leon sand at 3, Duplin sandy loam at 2, Udorthents loamy at 2, Cape Fear loam at 2, Autryville loamy sand at 2 and Wickham fine sandy loam at 1. Of those 30 spots, 12 were poorly or very poorly drained: Johnston, Leon and Cape Fear.

That's a big share for concrete contractors in Vander, NC to plan around. Candor is somewhat excessively drained and Autryville is well drained, so a lot on a sand ridge needs little beyond a compacted base. A lot on Johnston or Cape Fear loam holds water. We find the line between the two before we price, since a slab on wet loam needs extra base, a raised grade or a drainage swale.

Probe holes tell us what a soil map can't. If you've seen standing water in a low corner after storms, point it out at the walk. Our patio page shows how we handle drainage around a back-yard slab.

One acre or more: the erosion paperwork and the watershed question

The county's accessory building checklist has a parcel-size rule. Parcels of 1 acre or larger must meet the NC DEQ erosion and sediment control paperwork. Parcels under an acre need no DEQ approval before the permit is issued. Your acreage decides which side of that line you're on, so look it up before you plan a big pad.

Parcels inside the Cumberland County Water Supply Watershed are told to contact Current Planning at the county. We can't tell from the street which watershed a lot sits in, and the county's zoning map is the place to check. If yours is flagged, mention it at the first call so the paperwork starts before the pour date does.

Flood status is the other half. A FEMA check at 30 random spots inside the community found 25 in minimal hazard Zone X and none in a Special Flood Hazard Area, while 5 spots returned no result. It's a sample, so it can't speak for your parcel. Look up your address on the FEMA flood hazard layer before you finalize a plan. Planning an addition? The foundation page covers it.

Who controls your driveway: city, county or NCDOT

The driveway rule depends on the road, and as concrete contractors in Vander, NC, we ask which road before we draw anything. Inside Fayetteville, streets are maintained by either the City or NCDOT, and a connection to a state road requires an NCDOT driveway permit from the District Engineer. NCDOT's rule normally excludes residential driveway connections, but it can include them for safety hazards, highway projects or drainage problems, and there's no application fee.

If your parcel turns out to be inside Fayetteville, the city's UDO caps the first 12 feet of a driveway, measured from the street pavement edge, at 16 feet for a one-car garage and 24 feet for two or more cars. See the city's driveway standards. We don't guess which one applies. We ask who maintains the road.

On price, a 24 by 30 foot two-car driveway is 720 sq ft, which at our $7 to $12 per sq ft comes to $5,040 to $8,640. Our posted range for a typical 2-car driveway is $4,500 to $8,500, with tear-out adding $1.50 to $4 per sq ft. The driveway page and the driveway cost guide show how the number moves.

Concrete contractors in Vander, NC for county-permitted lots

You want a crew that reads the county checklist before quoting, asks about the soil and doesn't pour on wet loam without a plan. Fayetteville Concrete Pros is locally owned and Fully Insured, with 40+ years of experience behind each walk-through. We write Free Estimates after we see your lot.

Call (910) 996-0343 if you're looking for concrete contractors in Vander, NC. Bring your plot plan, your acreage and anything the county told you. We'll mark the pad, probe the soil and name the permit tier. Your contractor places the 811 call before any digging. Tell us about any fence, well or septic tank near the pad, since those decide where the forms can go and how a mixer truck gets in. The written estimate follows the site walk and lists the county tier, the soil plan and the price range before any work begins.

We also pour in nearby Eastover and Stedman, where the same county desk applies. For stamped patios or a sidewalk to the street, see the stamped concrete page and the sidewalk page.

David and his guys poured a new driveway and a slab for my shed in one trip. Price was fair and they didn't try to upsell me on stuff I didn't need. Came out clean and level. Glad I found a good concrete company in Fayetteville

Had them pour a walkway from the driveway around to the back patio plus a slab for the grill came out smooth with nice clean edges and they scored the control joints so it won’t crack up random. On time both days and cleaned up everything after. Really happy with how it came out

David and his team are really hard workers. They did an excellent job at my house. They had to do a front pathway/stairwell. I showed him what I wanted and next day they were here with machines at 8am working. They worked 8-8pm until the framing and shaping was finished. The cement job took them 5-6hrs with staining and stamping. Really fast, good job, great Price and good people. I recommend them to anyone.

After a nightmare experience with another contractor, I was nervous, but Fayetteville Concrete Professionals restored my faith. From day one, they were responsive, transparent, and actually listened to what I wanted. Their team poured a new driveway and even fixed some issues the last company left behind. You can tell they take pride in their work — the finish is smooth, clean, and built to last. Out of all the concrete companies in Fayetteville, this is the one I’d recommend in a heartbeat. If you want reliable concrete contractors in Fayetteville, start here. They really do go the extra mile.

Selina · Google review · Jun 2025
★★★★★

We recently hired Fayetteville Concrete Professionals to pour a new driveway and walkway for our home, and I genuinely couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the first phone call, their team was professional, down-to-earth, and clearly knew their craft. They showed up on time, answered every question I had (even the ones I thought were silly), and delivered results that totally exceeded our expectations. The crew worked hard, kept the area clean, and made sure everything was level and polished — they even helped us think through some design choices we hadn’t considered. It’s rare these days to find concrete contractors in Fayetteville who truly take pride in their work and treat your project like it’s their own home. If you’re comparing concrete companies in Fayetteville, save yourself the stress — just go with these guys. 10/10 would recommend.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I get a permit for a shed slab in Vander?

From Cumberland County. Vander has no town government, and the county takes applications through its self-service portal. A building under 400 square feet and under 12 feet in every direction needs the zoning permit only. Anything bigger or longer also needs the building permit. Bring a plot plan drawn to engineering scale.

Is a 10 by 20 foot shed slab covered by the small-building rule?

No. The zoning-only tier applies to buildings under 400 square feet and under 12 feet in any direction. A 10 by 20 foot building is 200 square feet but runs 20 feet in one direction, so it also needs the building permit. Check the county checklist before you order the kit, and ask the county to confirm the tier for your exact building.

Why does Vander soil vary so much?

Sandhills sand meets creek-bottom loam. In a 30-spot sample, 9 were Candor sand and 7 were Johnston loam, with Leon and Cape Fear making up the rest of the 12 poorly or very poorly drained spots. We probe the lot first and adjust base and drainage before we price the job.

Do I need erosion control paperwork for a big pad in Vander?

If your parcel is 1 acre or larger, the county's checklist says NC DEQ erosion and sediment control requirements apply. Under an acre, no DEQ approval is needed before the permit is issued. Confirm your acreage with the county. We'll list it in the free estimate so nothing surprises you, and we'll tell you which office to ask for the paperwork.

Which concrete contractors in Vander understand county permits?

Look for a crew that asks your acreage, your road's owner and your building size before it quotes. Fayetteville Concrete Pros brings all three to the free site walk, then writes the permit tier into the estimate. We tell you which office to call and we don't guess at a rule the county hasn't published.

Is my Vander driveway city, county or state?

It depends on who maintains the road and whether your parcel is inside Fayetteville. State roads need an NCDOT driveway permit, and city lots follow the UDO widths. Ask the county or city which applies, then tell us. Our free estimate names the permits to ask about, and the road owner decides which of them apply.
