New driveways, patios, walks, steps and slabs, and replacement for the concrete a repair will not save, poured on a base that is built right.
Free, no-obligation estimates. We answer the phone or call back the same working day.
New pours and replacements
We pour new concrete and replace failed concrete in Lake Elsinore: driveways, patios, walks, steps and slabs.
Plenty of our calls start as repair calls. When a repair will not last, replacement is the better choice, and we say so plainly, then quote the tear-out and the new pour together as one job.
The trade calls this work "flatwork": the slabs you drive, walk and sit on. What makes it last is mostly the work underneath it, so that is where we spend our time.
We pour new concrete where there was none before, and we tear out and replace concrete that a repair will not save.

New concrete is priced by the square foot, and the size, the finish, the site preparation, any old concrete that has to come out and the access to the site set where your job lands.
The typical ranges in the panel are for Lake Elsinore. They are not our quote: we come look, then quote the whole job before we start, with no surprise charges after.

Built from the ground up
We fix the cause of the old failure, compact the base, place and finish the concrete, then cure it right away so it reaches its strength.
Most of what makes concrete last is the work underneath it: excavation, compaction, drainage and a vapor barrier. The American Concrete Institute publishes the standards for how concrete is placed and cured, and this is the part you never see once the slab is down.
Every new pour runs these five steps, in this order:
Roots, poor compaction or bad drainage under the old slab get fixed before any new concrete goes in.
We excavate and compact the soil under the slab to the trade's "Proctor density" standard before any forms go up, so the slab sits on packed ground.
Forms go up, and in hot weather we pour early in the morning or late in the evening to stay out of the hottest hours.
We place and finish the concrete, with "evaporation retardant" on the fresh surface so it does not dry out too fast.
"Curing compound" goes on right after finishing to hold in the moisture, and sealer goes on once the slab reaches full strength.
In their own words
These are our own Google reviews, shown exactly as they were written.
I hired this concrete contractor for my driveway replacement and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The team was professional, showed up on time, and worked efficiently to get everything done ahead of schedule. The finish is smooth, durable, and really improved the curb appeal of my home. I would definitely recommend them for any concrete work.
Nick, and coworker did a outstanding job. Working on our front yard. My neighbor was so impressed he’s planning on hiring Nick, to do their front yard. Thanks, Nick

Where we pour
We do new concrete work across Lake Elsinore, California, and the nearby towns our service area lists.
That takes in the neighboring towns around the lake. A job farther out is a question for the call.
We take calls Monday through Saturday. Calls outside our hours go to voicemail, and we return them the next working morning.
Before the pour
These questions sit right next to new concrete work, and each answer points to where it is covered in full.
New concrete takes foot traffic after 24 to 48 hours and reaches full strength in about 30 days.
Here is how the wait breaks down:
Curing compound holds in the moisture concrete needs to get there.
Water added to the mix on site weakens the concrete and increases shrinkage cracking.
Concrete watered down on the truck cures out much weaker than its rated strength. A wetter mix spreads more easily, which is why it is tempting, and why it is the wrong trade for a slab you want to keep.
Concrete that is mostly stable with isolated damage, such as small cracks, minor chips or surface wear, can often be repaired rather than replaced.
When a repair will not last, replacement is the better choice. We look first and tell you which one your slab needs.
Straight answers
In Lake Elsinore, new concrete typically runs $6 to $12 per square foot for a broom-finish driveway and $4 to $8 per square foot for a typical slab. Size, finish, site preparation, removal of old concrete and access move a job within those ranges, and we quote the whole job before we start. What moves the price on repair work is set out in what concrete repair costs.
Ask how the base will be prepared, because most of what makes concrete last is the work underneath: excavation, compaction, drainage and a vapor barrier. Check the contractor's license with the Contractors State License Board, and get the whole job quoted before any work starts.
Water in the wrong place: water added to the mix on site weakens concrete and increases shrinkage cracking. Poor drainage under a slab is one of the causes we fix before new concrete goes in. Shrinkage and the other reasons a slab cracks are set out in why concrete cracks.
