Concrete work in El Segundostarts with what's underneath
Most El Segundo calls are about a cracked or sinking driveway, a patio that sends water toward the house, or uneven steps. The price usually turns on the size, the old concrete coming out and the base work, and the schedule on the permit and the pour date.
From Manhattan Beach, our crew works across the cities around it, including Hawthorne and Lawndale, so El Segundo is a short drive. A small walk repair gets the same forming and prep as a new driveway.
Please call (424) 452-9329 or send the form, and I'll come out and put your figure in a written estimate.
What we pour in El Segundofrom front walks to foundations
We handle everything from flatwork, the driveways, patios and walks laid flat on the ground, to walls, footings and foundations for El Segundo properties.
- Concrete driveway building Old driveways that have cracked or settled, torn out and replaced over a base we dig out and pack.
- Concrete patio construction Backyard patios sloped away from the house, so rain runs off to the yard instead of pooling by the door.
- Stamped concrete services For a front walk or patio that should look like stone or brick but wear like concrete.
- Concrete sidewalk building Walks to the front door and side yard, and we raise any curb or public sidewalk work at the estimate.
- Garage floor concrete Garage slabs that have cracked, chipped or gone dusty, poured new so the car and the storage sit level.
- Decorative concrete Colored and textured finishes for entries and yards where plain gray concrete would look out of place.
- Concrete retaining walls Walls that hold back a raised yard or a slope at the property line, built on proper footings.
- Concrete floor installation Interior slabs for additions, workshops and commercial spaces, set flat and level before any flooring goes down.
- Concrete pool decks Decks around backyard pools with a finish that gives bare feet some grip and sheds splash water.
- Concrete steps construction Front and back steps built the same height top to bottom, so nobody trips on one that sits taller.
- Slab foundation building Slab foundations for garages, additions and new buildings, with the base and forms checked before the truck comes.
- Foundation installation Foundations for new homes and additions, laid out and formed straight to the plans before we pour.
- Concrete parking lot building Parking areas for El Segundo businesses and apartment buildings, graded so water runs off instead of sitting.
- Concrete footings Footings for walls, decks, posts and small additions, dug to depth and checked before the concrete goes in.
- Foundation raising Houses where a corner has settled and the floors slope, lifted back toward level once we find out why.
- Concrete cutting Clean saw cuts through old slabs, walls and walks for new doorways, drains, utility lines or partial replacement.
Why El Segundo hires usprep done before the truck arrives
I'll explain each step before we take it and tell you plainly what concrete normally does, so nothing about the job surprises you, from the first visit to the last walk-around.
The owner comes out, and stays
I give your estimate myself and stay involved until the job is finished, so you're talking to the same person from the first visit on.
Forms straight, prep finished first
I learned under a boss who made me reset forms until they were straight, so the forms and the prep are done before the truck arrives.
Slabs that shed water away
Before the forms go up, we check where rain runs on your lot, so the new slab falls away from the house instead of toward it.
Cracks where we choose them
Concrete shrinks as it dries and usually cracks somewhere, so we cut control joints, shallow grooves that give the crack a straight line to follow, while it's fresh.
Your satisfaction, guaranteed
We're licensed and fully insured, and I've run this business since 2020. When you're ready to talk about your job, please call (424) 452-9329.
How a job runs herefrom first visit to final walk
We keep the job simple by doing it in the same order every time and telling you what comes next, so you're never guessing what the crew will do tomorrow.
You call or send the form
Please call (424) 452-9329 or use the form and tell us a little about the job, and we'll set a time for me to come and look.
I look and write it up
I listen before I measure, then write you an estimate that says what's included. Once you say yes, we file the permit for our part and set the pour date around its approval.
We form, pour and finish
Our own crew forms, pours and finishes while I check the work as it goes. The city allows construction Monday to Saturday, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., and not on Sundays or legal holidays.
We walk it with you
Before we pack up, we walk the finished job with you and tell you how long to stay off it while it cures, so the slab can gain its strength.
What El Segundo jobs requirebefore the first shovel goes in
Concrete here runs into the city's permit and license rules as often as it runs into bad prep, so we plan for both.
Digging usually needs a permit
The city requires permits for most excavation, so we file with the city's Building and Safety division for our part before tearing out old concrete.
Sidewalk and curb work
Work on the public sidewalk, curb or street needs its own permit from the city's Public Works Department, so we raise it at the estimate and plan for it.
Walls and grading
Retaining walls and grading can call for their own city permits, which we sort out before any forms go up.
Licenses to ask any bidder for
The city wants a business license from every contractor working there, and the state wants a contractor's license on permitted jobs or ones of $1,000 or more.

Our work around El Segundofor homes and businesses alike
In El Segundo we pour for homeowners replacing a tired driveway or adding a patio, and for property owners who need a parking area, a wall or a foundation set right. Each of them gets the same order of work, with the base dug out and packed before anything else.
That base is where I won't cut corners. It's hidden the day we pour, which makes it the first thing people want to trim from a budget, but it decides whether the slab settles with the dirt under it. If money is tight, I'd rather keep the finish simple.
