Concrete work we do around Hayward

Every job starts with me walking your site and asking what the concrete will carry and where the water runs. Price follows size, base work, steel and finish. The schedule turns on permits and weather, and your written estimate spells out each line in plain words.

  1. Concrete driveway building

    Replacing a cracked, sinking driveway or pouring a new one. We dig out and pack the base, add steel and slope it away from your house.

    Concrete driveway with broad white panels and dark gray bands leading to a tiled-roof house and garage.

  2. Concrete patio construction

    Backyard patios for furniture, grills and gatherings. We pour on packed ground and cut control joints, shallow grooves that steer cracking into straight lines we chose.

  3. Stamped concrete services

    Concrete pressed with patterns and color to look like stone, brick or slate, a good fit for patios and walkways where looks matter as much as wear.

  4. Concrete sidewalk building

    When a front walk or sidewalk heaves or trips people, we replace it with a broom finish, a brushed texture that gives shoes grip when wet.

    Concrete sidewalk runs along a blue house behind a white picket fence, with a small entry porch and ramp.

  5. Garage floor concrete

    A new garage slab, or a replacement for a cracked, oil-soaked one, poured over a packed base and reinforced for the weight of cars, shelving and a workbench.

  6. Decorative concrete

    Color, scored patterns and exposed aggregate, where the top is washed back so the stones show. It suits entries, patios and pool areas that should look finished.

  7. Concrete retaining walls

    A poured wall holds back a slope that keeps creeping into your yard. We tie in rebar, steel bars that hold it together, and drain water from behind.

  8. Concrete floor installation

    Interior concrete floors for shops, additions, warehouses and small commercial spaces, troweled smooth or left ready for tile or coatings, and kept level so racks sit right.

  9. Concrete pool decks

    New and replacement pool decks with a textured top for wet feet and a slope that carries splash water away from the pool and your house.

    Textured concrete pool deck with curved steps, stone edging, lounge chairs, and landscaped garden beds.

  10. Concrete steps construction

    Front and back steps that have cracked, settled or pulled away from the house, rebuilt with even step heights and steel tied into a solid base.

    Two low brick-edged concrete steps cross a speckled exposed-aggregate entry patio beside white doors.

  11. Slab foundation building

    A slab foundation is the floor and footing in one pour, for additions, ADUs, garages and sheds. Everything rides on the subgrade, the ground it sits on.

  12. Foundation installation

    New foundations for additions, rebuilds and outbuildings, from layout and digging to forms, steel and the pour. We line up the permit side early.

  13. Concrete parking lot building

    Concrete lots and aprons for small businesses, rentals and shared driveways, laid out so water drains off and heavy trucks don't break up the edges.

    New concrete driveway with control joints extends from a red brick house to a detached garage.

  14. Concrete footings

    Footings are the concrete under posts, walls and decks that spread the load into firm ground. We dig to the depth the plans call for and set steel.

  15. Foundation raising

    When a slab or foundation has settled and doors stick or floors slope, we lift it back toward level and deal with the ground that let it sink.

  16. Concrete cutting

    Saw cutting for new doorways, utility trenches, pulling out damaged sections or adding joints to an existing slab, with the dust kept down while we work.

Questions people ask before a pour

How much does a new concrete driveway cost in Hayward?

It depends mostly on size, how much digging and base work the site needs, the steel and the finish you pick. Breaking out an old slab, a steep or tight site and decorative work all add cost, so I give you a written number after I've seen the job.

Will my new concrete slab crack like the old one did?

Some cracking is normal for concrete, and I'll tell you that up front. We cut control joints so most of it lands in lines we chose, and we put the money into the base and steel first, because a nice finish on a poorly packed base is what fails early.

How long before I can drive on a new concrete driveway?

You'll be walking on it well before you can drive on it, because concrete keeps curing, slowly hardening, for weeks after the pour. Weather and the slab itself change the wait, so I'll tell you what to expect for your driveway before we pour.

Does my concrete project need a building permit in Hayward?

It depends on the job and your address, so we check early. The city's guidance says permits are required for almost all construction work, including structural work and demolition, and we figure out whether the city or the county handles your address, then file or walk you through it. You can also call the city's Permit Center at 510-583-4140.

Does a concrete contractor need a state license in California?

Usually, yes. The state licensing board requires a license whenever a project needs a building permit, uses any additional workers, or totals $1,000 or more in labor and materials on one or more contracts. A driveway, patio or foundation easily meets one of those, so ask anyone you're comparing for theirs.

Do you pour concrete outside Hayward, in places like Oakland or Fremont?

Yes. We work in many of the cities around Hayward on both sides of the bay, including Oakland, Fremont, San Mateo and Dublin. If your city isn't on our list, call and ask, because the list isn't everywhere we go.
