Concrete footings that carry what you build

A concrete footing is the base a wall, pier or column stands on. It's concrete with rebar, the steel bars set inside, poured in a trench to keep what's above from settling. Footings go in first on an addition, a garage or a patio cover, and nobody looks at them again. If your house is already sinking, that's a job for foundation raising.

We start with what the footing has to carry and what the plans call for, because a footing is only as good as what it sits on. The price follows depth and width. The schedule turns on the permit, and if your lot is in a mapped earthquake hazard zone, the permit process may require looking into that hazard and reducing it. The estimate gives you your number.

About us

Which footing your job needs

Get a quote
  1. Continuous footings

    These run the full length of a wall and spread its weight into the soil. They cost more to put in, and a wall is what calls for them.

  2. Pad footings

    A single pad under a post, pier or column, like a patio cover or deck post. Each one carries one point, so there's less digging.

  3. Wider footings for weak soil

    A soil test shows how well the ground holds weight. Weaker soil calls for a wider footing, which costs more, so testing first keeps the budget honest.

  4. Cutting into existing concrete

    When a new footing has to go under an old slab or driveway, we start with concrete cutting, so we open only what the footing needs.

Why owners hire us for footings

  • I write the estimate myself

    I come out to look at the job and write the estimate myself. Our crew pours with me on site, and we check the trench before any concrete goes in.

  • Building in Arcadia since 2017

    I hauled a lot of other people's broken concrete before starting this business in Arcadia in 2017. Hauling it taught me that what's underneath matters more than the top.

  • Fully licensed and insured

    In California, a concrete contractor's license covers forming, pouring, placing and finishing concrete. We're fully licensed and insured.
