Concrete across the Modesto area
Patios, walkways, driveways, RV pads and slabs, formed, placed and finished by our crew on a compacted base.
Permits depend on where the work is. A slab behind the house is one thing and a new driveway approach at the street is another, and each city handles it its own way.
What’s included
- Tear-out of old concrete
- Base prep and compaction
- Forms and rebar
- Broom, smooth or exposed-aggregate finish
