Concrete Driveway replacement

Need help -- I have contacted literally 10 different companies for a quote to replace my concrete driveway. Most haven't responded. One didn't show. One quoted $21K and the other quoted $12K -- suich a huge difference that I can't trust either of them. I need some other options. If anyone in Seattle has done any concrete work with other companies beyond the ones listed here, would be grateful for other recommendations.

Hi - I’m a GC and I can tell you this is unfortunately standard right now. There is more work than workers. Concrete also has been on strike for quite some time, so, anyone who is part of the union will not be calling you back until it is resolved and backlogs cleared. That being said, depending on your driveway size and drainage requirements that is a typical range. My suggestion, show the higher bidder the lower quote and see if there is room to either negotiate or explain the difference. Most likely, they have very good reasons for the higher price.
