Driveway Widening

If your driveway is too narrow for your current needs—whether you're parking multiple cars, accommodating a work truck, or just tired of squeezing in and out—driveway widening might be the perfect solution. At Driveway Contractors Boston, we specialize in widening driveways across Boston, offering services that are fast, clean, and built to last.

Whether your home is in Dorchester, South Boston, or West Roxbury, we provide full-service driveway widening services that go beyond just adding a few feet of pavement. We assess drainage, slope, materials, and match your existing driveway—whether it's an asphalt driveway, custom concrete, or gravel.

Many older homes in Boston were built with driveways meant for one vehicle—maybe two small sedans. But today, households often have multiple drivers, SUVs, work vans, or guests needing space. A widened driveway adds convenience, boosts curb appeal, and can even increase your home’s value. According to Zillow, homes with expanded driveways in urban areas like Boston sell 5% faster on average than homes with narrow or shared driveways.

We’ve widened driveways in tight lots in Cambridge, removed outdated stone edging in Jamaica Plain, and even added extra parking space for duplexes in Roslindale. Every job is different, and we customize the solution to fit your property.
