Concrete work we do in Pittsburg, CA

C&K Pittsburg Concrete Company is a concrete contractor in Pittsburg, CA, and we handle 16 kinds of work, from a new patio to a slab that has to be cut open or a house that needs raising. Most calls start with something you can see, like cracks, a sinking slab or water pooling where it shouldn't. The price mostly turns on the size of the job, how much old concrete comes out, how much base work the ground needs and the finish you pick. The schedule turns on permits, the weather and curing, the wait new concrete needs before it can take weight. Your free on-site estimate puts your own figure in writing, with what's included.

Concrete driveway building
We build new concrete driveways on a dug-out, packed base, sloped so water runs toward the street, for homeowners replacing cracked, sunken or worn-out ones.
Concrete patio construction
Want a spot out back for a table and a grill? We pour concrete patios sized to your yard and sloped so rain runs away from the house.
Stamped concrete services
Stamped concrete is pressed with a pattern and colored to look like stone, brick or tile, a good fit for patios, walkways and pool decks where looks matter.
Concrete sidewalk building
Is a front walk lifting, cracked or holding puddles? We break it out and pour a new concrete sidewalk with an even surface and a slight slope to shed water.
Garage floor concrete
A cracked, stained or uneven garage floor can be broken out and replaced with a new slab thick enough for cars, tools and a heavy workbench.
Decorative concrete
Decorative concrete covers color, exposed stone, borders and special finishes, for people who want a driveway, path or patio that looks finished instead of plain gray.
Concrete retaining walls
We build concrete retaining walls that hold back soil on sloped yards, with drainage behind them, including steep lots where the design may need an engineer first.
Concrete floor installation
Need a concrete floor for a shop, shed or addition? We pour interior slabs flat and level, so whatever goes on top of them sits right.
Concrete pool decks
We pour concrete pool decks with a textured surface that's easier on wet feet and a slope that carries splash water away from the pool and the house.
Concrete steps construction
Crumbling or uneven front steps are easy to trip on. We form and pour new concrete steps with even step heights and a textured top for sure footing.
Slab foundation building
A slab foundation is the concrete base a house, addition or garage sits on, and we pour it over a packed subgrade, the soil it rests on.
Foundation installation
We install concrete foundations for new homes, additions and outbuildings, and when the plans come with an engineer's design or a soils report, we build to them.
Concrete parking lot building
For shops, rentals and small commercial lots, we build concrete parking areas thick enough for daily traffic, with drainage planned so water doesn't sit in the stalls.
Concrete footings
Footings are the buried concrete under posts, walls and additions that carries their weight. We dig and pour them to the depth and size the plans call for.
Foundation raising
Doors sticking or cracks running up the walls? A settled house can often be raised back toward level, and we'll tell you if an engineer should look first.
Concrete cutting
We saw-cut concrete for new openings, plumbing trenches, removing a section or making a clean edge, after checking for steel, pipes or wires inside the old slab.

Why people hire us for concrete work

Here's what you get when you hire us, whether it's your house, a rental, a shop or a small lot, from the first visit to the last pour.

The owner bids and runs it
I'm the one who comes out, looks at your job and writes the estimate, and I'm also on site running the work with our crew. What we talked about in your driveway is what gets built, with no handoff in between.
Glad to take tricky jobs
Some jobs have a puzzle in them, like cutting into an old slab, building a wall on a steep yard or raising a house that's settled. We like figuring those out, and they're a big part of why people call us.
Engineer or scan, we'll say so
If your job needs an engineer, a soils report or a scan of the old slab before we cut, I'll tell you up front instead of guessing. It takes a little time early and saves surprises once the concrete is open.
Bids you can compare
Your estimate spells out in plain words what's included and what isn't, so you can lay it next to other bids and see the real differences. When you're ready, call (925) 318-8157 to set one up.

How your concrete job goes, step by step

Here's what happens from the day you reach out to the day we walk the finished job with you. I'm there for each step, so you know who to ask.

Step 01
Call or send the form
Call (925) 318-8157 or send the form with a few lines about your job, like what's there now and what you'd like instead. We get back to you within one business day to find a time for me to come out and see it.
Step 02
I look it over and write it up
I come out, walk the site with you and ask a lot of questions about the ground, where the water goes and what might be under the old concrete. Then I write up a free estimate that says what's in it and what isn't, with no obligation to book.
Step 03
We do the work
If you go ahead, I run the job alongside our crew. We dig out and pack the base, set the forms and steel, pour, finish the surface and cut the joints, and you hear from me along the way about what we're doing and why.
Step 04
Clean up and walk through
When the work is done, we clean up the site and haul off our debris, then walk the finished job with you. I'll tell you how long to stay off it and when it's ready for a car, since new concrete keeps curing after we leave.

Who we are and how we work

The base gets the budget first
The packed ground under a slab is hidden the day we pour, so it's the first thing a cheap bid cuts. If money's tight, I'd rather keep a solid base and go plainer on the finish, because a nice top won't save a slab that sinks.
Water runs away from your house
Before any forms go up, we check where rain runs on your property. A slab that tips toward the house sends water at your foundation, so we set the slope to carry it toward the street or the yard.
Plain words at every step
If we open up an old slab and find something that changes the plan, I'll show you what we found and explain what it means for your job before we go any further.

How I got into concrete

I started C&K Pittsburg Concrete Company in 2021, after learning concrete as a helper on a small crew, mixing, setting forms and watching how the older guys read a job before they touched it. We're fully licensed and insured, we offer 16 concrete services from our base in Pittsburg, CA, and homeowners call us most, along with owners of rentals, shops and small lots.

Common questions about concrete work

How much does a new concrete driveway cost in Pittsburg, CA?

It depends on your driveway, so the real number comes from a free on-site estimate instead of a price list. The big swings are size, tearing out and hauling off the old slab, how much digging and base work the ground needs, and the finish you pick. Access matters too, because a driveway we can't reach with a truck means more hand work.

Does stamped concrete cost more than a plain concrete patio?

Yes, stamped concrete usually costs more than a plain broom finish because of the color, the pattern mats and the extra hands it takes to press it before the concrete sets. A broom finish is the light ridged texture dragged across the top so it isn't slick when wet. Plenty of people go plain on the main slab and stamped on a border, which keeps most of the look for less.

How long before I can drive on a new concrete driveway?

You can usually walk on new concrete well before you can drive on it, and I'll give you both waits for your slab before we pour. The wait depends on the mix and the weather, and parking on it too early is one of the easiest ways to crack a new driveway, so plan to park on the street for a while.

Does a concrete contractor need a business license to work in Pittsburg, CA?

Yes, the City of Pittsburg requires every business doing paid work in the city to hold a current City Business License before work starts, including subcontractors and companies from out of town. A Contra Costa County license only covers the unincorporated parts of the county, so it doesn't count inside city limits. C&K Pittsburg Concrete Company is fully licensed and insured.

Do you remove the old concrete before pouring a new slab?

Usually, yes, because pouring over cracked or sinking concrete carries the old problems into the new slab. We break it out, haul it away and look at the ground under it before we rebuild the base. When only part of a slab has to go, we can saw-cut a clean line and keep the rest.

Do you guarantee your concrete work?

Yes, our promise on every job is your satisfaction, guaranteed. That promise sits on top of a written estimate we both agree on, so before we start you know what the finished job includes.

Will my new concrete slab crack like the old one?

A new slab can still crack, but a packed base and joints cut on time keep most cracks small and in the spots we picked. Control joints are the straight grooves we cut across the slab, so when concrete shrinks and cracks, the crack runs in the groove instead of across the middle. Steel inside, usually rebar, helps hold any crack tight, and we avoid pouring in midday heat, which can leave a weak, dusty top.

Do I need a permit for concrete work in Pittsburg, CA?

Often, yes, because the city's engineering permit list names concrete work, along with grading and work in the right of way, the strip along the street the city owns. Rules differ from city to city, so we check with the local building office early in planning, walk you through what they tell us and pull the permit when one is needed. City staff have the final word on what your job requires, and you can ask the city directly too.
