About our Walnut Creek concrete contractor crew
How I got into concrete
Before I finished a single slab, I ran a small landscape supply yard. I kept wondering why some of the flatwork my customers built held up for years while some of it cracked and sank. By flatwork I mean the driveways, patios and paths. That question got the better of me, so I sold the yard, spent a few years learning the trade beside a seasoned finisher and started this business in Walnut Creek in 2013.
Thirteen years later, we're best known for the awkward jobs, like sloped backyards, cuts through old slabs and walls that have to handle water. Most of our calls come from homeowners, along with some builders and property managers. I still enjoy a tricky spot. I'd rather take extra time working out where the water goes and what's holding the slab up than guess and pour. You can see the work we take on from our home page.

What you can count on from us
You get the owner at your property
I come out to look at your job myself, ask what you have in mind and put it all in writing, so the person you meet is the one planning the tricky parts. Our own crew does the prep, the pour and the finish, and I'm on site for the parts that matter most.
We plan what's under the slab
We give the subgrade, the packed ground your slab sits on, and the rebar, the steel that holds the slab together, as much thought as the finish on top. If it comes down to time on the base or extra fuss on the surface, I'll pick the base every time, because a slab on loose dirt settles no matter how good it looked on day one.
Straight answers about cracking
Concrete cracks some, and I'll tell you that before we pour, not after. We cut control joints, grooves that give the slab a planned place to crack, early enough that the lines show up where we chose them.
Our licensing and city permits
Licensed and insured.
Walnut Creek's Community Development Department issues building permits for homes inside the city limits. It needs the signature of the legal property owner or a California licensed contractor before it issues one. Replacing the driveway approach or the sidewalk in front of your house takes an encroachment permit from the city. We work out early whether your job touches the street or needs a city or county sign-off, and when a permit is needed, we can handle the application and paperwork for you.
