Certified Heated Driveway Specialist

Our Heated Driveway Systems

Two proven technologies. One goal: a permanently clear, safe, maintenance-free driveway all winter long.

Hydronic Heated Driveway System

Starting at $12/sq ft installed

Heated fluid (water + antifreeze) circulates through PEX tubing embedded 2–4 inches below your driveway surface. Radiant heat rises upward, melting snow on contact. Ideal for large driveways and new construction projects.

  • Lowest long-term operating costs
  • 20–30 year system lifespan
  • Whisper-quiet, no above-ground moving parts
  • Ideal for new construction or full replacement
  • Can connect to existing boiler system
  • Best for large areas (1,000+ sq ft)

Electric Heated Driveway System

Starting at $8/sq ft installed

Resistance heating cables or mats are embedded beneath your driveway and connected to your electrical panel. Smart controllers activate the system automatically when snow or ice is detected.

  • Easiest retrofit — no major excavation
  • No boiler, no antifreeze, no pump maintenance
  • Precise zone-by-zone control
  • Fastest heat response time
  • Works with any driveway surface
  • Ideal for smaller areas and spot heating
