Concrete contractor in California Citydone right the first time
We drive up from Lancaster for California City jobs, and most of them are the basics done properly. That means driveways, patios, garage slabs, footings and the slabs under new buildings. People here want flatwork that stays flat, and that starts with what's under it.
Price comes down to size, thickness, how much digging and base work the ground needs, and the finish you pick. The schedule turns on the city's permit review and on curing, the wait before a slab can take weight. Your written estimate lays out what's included and what isn't.
Call (661) 952-4153 or send the form, and I'll come out, measure and give you a free written estimate.
What we pour in California Cityfrom front walks to foundations
In California City we do the same full list of work we do around Lancaster, for houses, garages, shops and small business lots.
- Concrete driveway building Driveways for new homes and old ones, dug out and packed underneath so they don't settle with the dirt.
- Concrete patio construction Backyard patios sloped away from the house, because water running toward your wall is a problem you paid for.
- Stamped concrete services Patterns that look like stone or brick, pressed into the slab while it's still soft enough to take them.
- Concrete sidewalk building Front walks and side paths with control joints, cut lines that tell cracks where to go.
- Garage floor concrete Garage and shop slabs poured thick enough for what you park and store on them.
- Decorative concrete Color and textured finishes for entries and patios that should look like more than plain gray.
- Concrete retaining walls If your yard has a grade change, we build walls that hold it back, on footings with steel inside.
- Concrete floor installation Interior slabs for workshops, storage buildings and commercial spaces, finished smooth and level.
- Concrete pool decks Pool decks with a textured top for bare feet, sloped so water drains away from the house.
- Concrete steps construction Front and back steps with even risers, so nobody trips on the one that's a little taller.
- Slab foundation building The slab a new house or building sits on, poured on ground we've dug out, packed and leveled first.
- Foundation installation Foundations for new homes and additions, laid out square so the framers have nothing to fight.
- Concrete parking lot building Small business lots and drives built to take delivery trucks and everyday traffic.
- Concrete footings Footings for walls, patio covers and additions, dug to the size the plans call for.
- Foundation raising When part of a slab or foundation has sunk, we find out why before we talk about lifting it.
- Concrete cutting Saw cutting for new doorways, plumbing trenches or pulling one bad section without breaking up the rest.
Why California City calls usfor concrete that comes out square
Since 2013 we've poured flatwork and foundations around Lancaster, and the standard doesn't change with the drive. Square, level, and the way we said it would come out.
The owner is there on pour day
The crew on your job is one I trained, and I'm on site for the pour, because that's when mistakes get set in stone.
Base work we won't cut
When a budget gets tight, I'd rather you drop the fancy finish than the base, because nobody sees the base until the slab sinks.
Licensed and insured
We're licensed and insured. The state requires a license for any job needing a permit or running $1,000 or more, and a job can't be split to slip under that.
Permits handled for you
If your job needs a permit, we find out which office covers your address and take care of the paperwork and the inspections.
Satisfaction guaranteed on every job
Concrete doesn't give you a second try, so I'd rather pass on a job than pour one I'd have to apologize for.
Call to finished slabthe way every job runs
We keep it simple. The person who measures your job writes the estimate, the estimate says what's included and what isn't, and that same person is there when the concrete shows up.
Call or send the form
Call (661) 952-4153 or fill out the form with your address and what you want poured, and we'll set a time to come out.
I measure and write it up
I come out myself, look at the site, measure and ask what the concrete has to carry, then send a written estimate that says what's included and what isn't.
Permit, prep, pour and cure
Once any permit clears, we prep, pour, finish and cure. City review runs 5 to 10 working days for fast-track jobs like garages and about 4 weeks for work needing planning review.
Walk it together
Before we call it done, we walk the job with you, so you see the finish, the joints and the slope for yourself.
What California City jobs needbefore the first form goes in
Most of what makes a job here go right happens on paper and underground, well before the truck backs in.
Most home jobs need a permit
The city exempts only cosmetic work and a few small projects, and work done without a needed permit can draw a penalty of up to $1,000.
Every commercial job is permitted
The Building & Safety Division requires a permit for all work at a commercial location, so a parking lot or shop floor starts with paperwork.
Zoning check for new buildings
New construction plans go to the Planning Department for a zoning review first, so we count that time before we schedule a foundation.
Inspections by appointment only
City inspections are booked by appointment at 760-373-7162, so we line them up ahead of the pour date.
Earthquake hazard zones
You can type your address into EQ Zapp to see whether your lot sits in a mapped earthquake hazard zone before a foundation goes in.

Our work around California Citysame crew, same standard
We come up from Lancaster for homes, garages, pool decks and small business lots in California City, and the crew that pours them is the same one working in Mojave and Rosamond. Same forms, same base work, same owner standing there on pour day.
Plenty of calls here are for a house's first driveway or patio, or footings for a new building on an open lot. That's where a packed base and a slab that drains away from the house matter most, because there's no old concrete to tell you how the ground behaves.
