Chicago, again, is higher, with beginning finishers paid closer to $25 per hour.
As you can see, the price of the supplies is more than the concrete itself. That is because extra strength is needed to create the forms, thus resulting in a higher cost.

Finally, if your project requires a thicker slab than normal (6â), the price can go up.
