Concrete work in San Marino starts underground
We build driveways, patios, walks and the slabs and footings under them for homeowners in San Marino. Price follows the size, how much old concrete comes out, how much base the ground needs and the finish. The schedule follows the same list plus curing, the wait before the slab takes weight. I write the estimate on site, so you know what you're paying for before we start.
We're based in Arcadia and work across the cities around it, from Pasadena to Temple City. San Marino is among the cities closest to the Raymond Fault. We build here the way we do everywhere, with the base dug out and packed, steel in the slab and control joints cut on time.
Concrete work we do in San Marino
Get a quoteConcrete driveway building
A new driveway starts with tearing out the old one and digging to firm subgrade, the ground the slab sits on, then packing a base before we pour.
Concrete patio construction
When a patio has sunk, cracked or pools water against the house, we replace it with a slab that falls away from your walls.
Stamped concrete services
Stamped concrete is pressed with a pattern while it's still wet, so it looks like stone or brick, and it gets the same base as plain work.
Concrete sidewalk building
We pour walks from the street or driveway on a packed base, with control joints, cuts that tell cracks where to go.
Garage floor concrete
Garage floors carry cars daily, so we replace cracked or sunken ones with rebar inside, the steel that holds a cracked slab together.
Decorative concrete
Color, exposed stone and patterns for a patio or entry. They cost more than a plain broom finish, the texture that keeps feet from slipping.
Concrete retaining walls
Where a yard steps down or a slope leans on a driveway, a poured wall holds the soil back, and it needs drainage behind it to stay put.
Concrete floor installation
We pour interior slabs for additions and workshops, level over a packed base, with a vapor barrier underneath so moisture from the ground stays out of the floor.
Concrete pool decks
A pool deck has to shed splash water away from the pool and the house, and it needs a surface that grips when it's wet.
Concrete steps construction
Steps that have cracked, settled or pulled away from the house get broken out and re-poured with every step the same height and steel inside.
Slab foundation building
A slab foundation is the floor and footing of a garage, studio or addition in one pour, so the subgrade and the steel get checked before concrete arrives.
Foundation installation
For new structures that need a footing and stem wall foundation, we dig, form, set steel and pour, working to the plans and whatever inspections the job calls for.
Concrete parking lot building
Lots for a building, church or small business take heavier traffic than a driveway, so the base goes thicker and the joints are laid out for it.
Concrete footings
Footings carry posts, walls and patio covers. One that's too shallow or small lets whatever sits on it move, so we dig to the plans.
Foundation raising
When a slab or foundation has dropped and doors stick or floors slope, we lift it back toward level and fill the gap the settling left.
Concrete cutting
We saw-cut concrete for new openings, trench lines, utility runs and control joints that got skipped, with water on the blade to keep dust down.
