Concrete Contractor in Redondo Beach, CA - Driveways and Patios on a Packed Base
Manhattan Beach Concrete pours driveways, patios, walks and steps in Redondo Beach, CA, and builds walls and foundations too. I look at every job myself, and our own crew digs out, forms, pours and finishes it.
Your concrete contractor in Redondo Beachwith the prep done first
We're based in Manhattan Beach, and Redondo Beach is one of the cities around it where we pour driveways, patios, walks and steps, along with walls and foundations for property owners. Our same crew works in Hermosa Beach, Torrance and Inglewood.
The price mostly turns on the size of the slab, how much old concrete comes out and the finish you choose. The schedule turns on the city's permit and inspections, and your written estimate lists what's included.
Please call (424) 452-9329 or send the form, and I'll come out to look at the job and write up your estimate.
What we pour in Redondo Beachfrom front walks to foundations
Each job below gets the same careful prep, whether it's a small patio behind the house or a lot for a multi-unit property.
- Concrete driveway building Driveways built on a dug-out, packed base, because that's what keeps a slab from sinking under a parked car.
- Concrete patio construction Back yard patios sloped a little away from the house, so water runs off instead of pooling by your door.
- Stamped concrete services Stamped patterns pressed into fresh concrete for patios and front walks where you'd like the look of stone or brick.
- Concrete sidewalk building Front walks and side paths with control joints, grooves we cut so any crack follows a straight line.
- Garage floor concrete Garage floors replaced when the old slab has cracked or sunk, set level so the car and storage sit flat.
- Decorative concrete Color and texture for entries and courtyards, chosen with you on site before anything is ordered.
- Concrete retaining walls Retaining walls for yards that step up or down, with rebar, the steel bars inside, holding the wall together.
- Concrete floor installation Interior slabs for additions, studios and workshops, poured level so the flooring that goes on top lies flat.
- Concrete pool decks Pool decks with a broom finish, a light brushed texture that gives wet feet some grip.
- Concrete steps construction Front steps with every rise the same height, because an odd step is the one people trip on.
- Slab foundation building Slab foundations for new homes and additions, started from firm subgrade, the packed ground the whole slab rests on.
- Foundation installation Foundations for rebuilds and additions on tight lots, with forms set straight and checked before concrete is ordered.
- Concrete parking lot building Parking lots for small commercial and multi-unit properties, graded so rain drains off instead of standing at entrances.
- Concrete footings Footings under walls, posts and room additions, dug to the depth the plans call for.
- Foundation raising Foundation raising for houses that have settled over the years, to bring sloping floors back toward level.
- Concrete cutting Concrete cutting for doorways, utility trenches and pulling out one cracked section without breaking up the whole driveway.
Why Redondo Beach hires uswith the owner on site
I'd rather explain too much than surprise you later, so you'll know what each stage of your job involves and why we do it before it starts.
The owner gives your estimate
I come out myself to look at the job and listen to what you need before I measure anything, and I stay involved until it's finished.
Our own crew, start to finish
The people who dig out, form, pour and finish your concrete are our own crew, so you know who will be working at your house.
The base before the finish
The base is buried by day one, so it's the first cut people suggest, but I'd sooner save on the finish, since every slab settles with whatever is under it.
Straight forms, finished prep
I learned under a strict boss who made me reset crooked forms, and I've run this business that way since 2020, with the prep finished before the truck arrives.
Licensed, insured and guaranteed
We're licensed and fully insured for every job we take on in Redondo Beach, and our promise stays simple. Your satisfaction, guaranteed.
From your call to the pourand the walkthrough at the end
Concrete doesn't wait once the truck arrives, so the decisions get made at the estimate, and you know what's included and when we'll start before any work begins.
Call or send the form
Please call (424) 452-9329 or send the form with a few lines about your driveway, patio or other job, and we'll set a time for me to come out.
Your written estimate
I look the job over and write up an estimate of what's included. Once you say yes, we file the permit for our part and set a pour date around its approval.
We form, pour and finish
Our crew forms, pours and finishes within the city's hours, weekdays 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturdays 9 to 5, with Sundays and major holidays off, and I check each stage.
We walk it with you
We walk the finished job with you before we pack up, and I explain curing, the days concrete needs to harden before you walk or drive on it.
What Redondo Beach asks firstbefore any concrete is poured
In Redondo Beach the city's permits, inspections and licenses set the order of a concrete job, so here is what we plan around.
Permits from the Building Division
The city's Building Division at (310) 318-0636 issues permits, and homeowners can't pull one for jobs over $50,000 or two or more units.
Work that reaches the street
Work at the sidewalk, curb or street falls under the city's Engineering Division, so we raise it at the estimate and plan for it.
Inspections before the pour
The city wants inspections as work goes and before anything is covered, so we plan the pour around them, before concrete hides what's underneath.
A city business license
Redondo Beach requires every contractor, subcontractors included, to hold a valid city business license before it will issue a permit.
A state contractor's license
The state licensing board requires a license on permitted jobs or ones costing $1,000 or more, even when split into smaller contracts.

Redondo Beach houses we work onolder streets and growing yards
Redondo Beach has some older neighborhoods, and the Original Townsite between Diamond and Carnelian Streets is on the National Register of Historic Places. On older houses we often find walks and driveways that settled with the dirt under them, so we dig out and repack the base instead of pouring over it.
Most of what we pour here is flatwork, the driveways, patios, walks and steps around a house, but property owners also call us for parking lots, retaining walls and foundations. On each one we check where the water will run before the forms go in, so the slab drains away from the house.
