Driveways, patios and foundations in Novato
Most calls are for a driveway, a patio or a foundation. Where an old slab cracked or sank, the subgrade, the dirt it sits on, usually wasn't dug out and packed, so that's where I start. The size, how much old concrete comes out, the steel and the finish move the price. Any permit and the cure, the wait before it's hard enough to drive on, set the schedule.
We're based in Santa Rosa and work in the cities around it, including Petaluma, San Rafael and Larkfield-Wikiup. Before I bid a Novato job, I check with the City of Novato's Building Division, which issues building permits there. If your job needs one, we handle the application and meet the inspector, and the estimate says so.
Concrete services for Novato properties
Get a quoteConcrete driveway building
A new driveway in place of one that's cracked, sunk or pooling water, poured over a dug-out, packed base with rebar, steel that holds the slab together.
Concrete patio construction
For a patio off the back door, we slope the slab so rain runs away from the house and give it a broom finish, light grooves for grip.
Stamped concrete services
Stamped concrete has a pattern like stone, brick or slate pressed into the surface while it's wet, for patios, walkways and pool decks that want more than gray.
Concrete sidewalk building
Sidewalks and walkways that have cracked into a trip hazard. We replace the bad sections and cut control joints, grooves that tell cracks where to go.
Garage floor concrete
If your garage floor has settled, cracked or turned dusty, we break it out and pour a new slab built to carry cars, tools and storage.
Decorative concrete
Color, exposed aggregate and stains for a driveway, patio or entry where plain gray won't do. We settle the finish at the estimate, before anything's poured.
Concrete retaining walls
Where a slope pushes toward a yard, driveway or patio, a poured wall with steel and drainage behind it holds the soil back and keeps water from building up.
Concrete floor installation
Interior slabs for an addition or outbuilding. We pack the base, lay a vapor barrier against ground moisture and finish the floor flat for what goes on top.
Concrete pool decks
A pool deck has to drain away from the house and give wet feet some grip, so we plan the slope and the surface texture together.
Concrete steps construction
Entry steps that have cracked, pulled away from the house or sit uneven. We form every step to the same height, because an odd one trips people.
Slab foundation building
The slab under a new home, addition or ADU, laid out from the plans, with the footings, steel and plumbing sleeves checked before we pour.
Foundation installation
Raised foundations for additions, new homes and outbuildings that need a crawlspace. We dig the footings, set the forms and steel, and pour to the plans.
Concrete parking lot building
Parking areas for rentals, shops and shared driveways, where a thicker slab and a deeper base carry more cars and heavier trucks than a single home's driveway.
Concrete footings
Footings are the buried concrete that carries a deck, wall, porch or addition. We dig to firm soil and set the steel before the pour.
Foundation raising
When part of the house has dropped and doors stick or floors slope, we lift that section and support it. What it takes shows once we dig.
Concrete cutting
Saw-cutting for a trench, a new opening or a bad section that needs replacing, with straight edges so the new concrete meets the old cleanly.

Why Novato homeowners call us
The base gets the budget
The base is buried on pour day, so it's the first place a budget gets cut. I won't, because a slab only stays flat on packed dirt.
Owner on site, own crew
I come out to every estimate and I'm on site on pour day, so the person who quoted the job watches our own crew pour it.
Straight talk before we start
I walk you through what to expect before we start, including the small cracks concrete gets. We're licensed and fully insured. Your satisfaction, guaranteed.
