Manhattan Beach Concrete is a concrete contractor based in Manhattan Beach, CA. We build driveways, patios, walks, steps, walls and foundations here, and we finish the ground prep and the forms before any concrete arrives.
Concrete work in Manhattan Beachdone from the ground up
Most of our calls come from right here in Manhattan Beach, and most of them are flatwork, which is our word for driveways, patios, walks and steps. The price and the schedule usually turn on the size, the tear-out, the base and the finish you choose.
The city's Community Development department takes permit applications for construction, repair and demolition work, so I check what your job needs before we set a date. We also work in Redondo Beach and Hermosa Beach.
Please call (424) 452-9329 or send the form, and I'll come out to look at your job and talk it through.
Our concrete services in Manhattan Beachfrom driveways to foundations
We form, pour and finish concrete for houses and properties across Manhattan Beach, from front walks to the slab a new home sits on.
- Concrete driveway building Cracked, sinking or chipped driveways torn out and replaced with a new slab sized for the cars it carries.
- Concrete patio construction Back patios that pool water get a new slab sloped away from the house, so rain runs off.
- Stamped concrete services A pressed pattern and color for patios and entries, laid over the same packed base as plain concrete.
- Concrete sidewalk building Front and side walks that have heaved or chipped, rebuilt with joints cut where the cracks should go.
- Garage floor concrete Cracked or uneven garage slabs replaced with a level floor that takes a car's weight and a workbench.
- Decorative concrete Colored, textured or polished finishes for entries and outdoor rooms where the concrete is meant to be seen.
- Concrete retaining walls Where a yard steps up or down, a wall built on a proper footing holds the soil in place.
- Concrete floor installation Interior slabs for additions, workshops and ground floors, poured level so finish flooring can go straight on top.
- Concrete pool decks A deck around the pool with a finish that grips wet feet and sends splash water away from the edge.
- Concrete steps construction Front and back steps formed straight and even, so every step feels the same underfoot.
- Slab foundation building The slab a new house or addition sits on, with rebar, the steel that holds it together, set first.
- Foundation installation Full foundations for new homes and rebuilds, dug, formed and inspected before any concrete comes down the chute.
- Concrete parking lot building Lots for small commercial and multi-unit properties, graded so water leaves the pavement instead of sitting on it.
- Concrete footings Footings for walls, posts, patio covers and additions, sized to the load they carry and dug to firm ground.
- Foundation raising When part of a house has settled, we lift and support the foundation so doors and floors come back toward level.
- Concrete cutting Clean cuts through old slabs and walls for new doors, drains or a tear-out, with less damage to what stays.
Why Manhattan Beach hires usfor straight forms and careful prep
Working with us is plain and unhurried. I explain what concrete normally does and what your job involves, so nothing about the work comes as a surprise.
The owner stays on your job
I give the estimate myself and stay involved until the job is finished, so you have one person to ask from start to finish.
Our own crew on the pour
Our own crew does the forming, pouring and finishing, so the people at your house are people I trained and work beside.
Base first, finish second
If the budget is tight, I'd keep the money in the base, the packed ground under the slab, because it decides how well the slab holds up.
Forms set straight before we pour
I learned under a strict boss who made me reset forms until they were straight, and I still check every form line before we pour.
Licensed, insured, in business since 2020
We're licensed and fully insured, and our own business has been forming and pouring concrete since 2020. Your satisfaction, guaranteed.
From call to finished slabhow a Manhattan Beach job runs
I keep a job simple by explaining each part before it happens, so you know what we're doing at your house and why.
Call or send the form
Please call (424) 452-9329 or send the form with a few words about the job, and we'll set a time for me to come out.
I look and listen first
I look at the site and listen to what you need before I measure anything. Your written estimate then lays out what's included, line by line.
Permit, forms and pour
If the job needs a permit, we file ours and plan the start around it, since the city allows no work until it's issued. Then our crew forms, pours and finishes.
We walk it with you
We walk the finished job with you before we pack up, and I'll tell you how long to stay off it while it cures, the wait that lets it harden.
What Manhattan Beach jobs ask forbefore any concrete goes down
These are the things we plan around on concrete work here, from the ground under the slab to the city's permit steps.
Loose base under old slabs
Older slabs often sink because their base was raked level rather than packed, so we dig it out and rebuild it before forming.
Water running toward the house
A slab that falls toward the house sends rain at the wall, so I check where the water runs before we set the forms.
Cracks in places nobody chose
Control joints, the grooves we cut across a slab, give it a planned place to crack, so we cut them on time instead of late.
Work near the sidewalk or street
Work that changes a public sidewalk, alley or street may need permits from other city offices, so I raise it at the estimate.
Recycling the tear-out
On new homes, additions and demolition work, the city wants at least 65% of the waste recycled, so we check whether yours counts.
