Truecast Rancho Cucamonga Concrete pours driveways, patios, slabs, steps and retaining walls for homes across Rialto, CA. We're based nearby in Rancho Cucamonga, and I look at every job myself before our crew pours.
Rialto is mostly single-family neighborhoods, from older single-story houses near the middle of town to newer tracts farther north, with warehouses and industrial lots along the edges. At the older places we see original driveways that cracked, sank at the garage or lifted where a tree root got under them, and back patios poured with no slope, so water sits against the wall. Newer homes usually came with a driveway and a small back slab, and those owners call us to add a patio, widen the drive or run a walk along the side yard. It's the same kind of work we do in Fontana and San Bernardino, and the houses read a lot alike across that stretch.
The ground matters more than the house. A lot of what we dig into here is sandy and loose, which drains well but settles under a slab that went down on dirt raked flat, and that's behind most of the sunken driveways we're called to replace.
Most Rialto driveway calls are older slabs that cracked or sank at the garage. We break it out, pack a new base and pour one sloped to the street.
Explore serviceYou want a back patio that sheds water instead of pooling at the door. We slope the slab away from the house and pick the finish together.
Explore serviceStamped concrete presses a stone or brick pattern into the slab while it's soft. We settle color and pattern before pour day, because there's no redo after.
Explore serviceWe build front walks, side yards and paths to the gate, each sloped to shed water off the edge with joints cut where cracks should go.
Explore serviceA cracked or uneven garage floor usually means the base gave way. We remove the old slab, rebuild the base and pour a floor that sits level.
Explore serviceDecorative concrete covers color, exposed aggregate and custom borders on walks and patios. We match it to your house so the new work doesn't look bolted on.
Explore serviceA retaining wall holds back a slope that's washing out. We plan the footing and the drainage behind it, because trapped water is what pushes walls over.
Explore serviceInterior floors for shops, additions and converted garages need to be flat and kept dry from below. We pour to the finish your flooring calls for.
Explore serviceAround a pool, the deck has to drain away from the water and not turn slick when wet. We plan the slope and a textured finish bare feet can grip.
Explore serviceFront steps that have settled or split away from the porch are a trip hazard. We pour new steps at even heights, tied to the slab with steel.
Explore serviceWe build slab foundations for additions, ADUs and detached garages. The approved plans set the thickness and steel, and we prepare the ground to carry it.
Explore serviceWhen a new structure needs a foundation, we dig, form and pour it to the engineer's layout. Square and level saves every trade after us a headache.
Explore serviceProperty owners call us for lots and drive aisles that see trucks and daily traffic. Thickness, steel and drainage get set for the loads the lot will carry.
Explore serviceFootings are the concrete pads and strips that carry walls, posts and patio covers. We dig them to the size the plans give, down to firm ground.
Explore serviceWhen a slab or foundation has dropped at one corner, lifting it can beat replacing it. I check what's underneath first, because the cause decides the fix.
Explore serviceNeed a trench for a line or one bad section of driveway taken out? We saw-cut it so the edge is clean and the rest stays whole.
Explore serviceRialto's Building Department issues the permits for building, altering or removing a structure in the city, and on a lot of jobs its review sets the start date more than our crew does. By the city's tentative estimates, a patio or block wall permit can often be reviewed and issued within 10 business days, other permits take about 20 business days of plan review and about 10 more to issue, and any corrections start the 20 over. Before you hire anyone, look up their license with the Contractors State License Board and ask for their Rialto business license, which the city requires of every contractor who bids or works here.
We're licensed and fully insured, and if your job needs a permit, we apply for it with the city and keep track of it so you don't have to, then set the pour date once it's issued. Price here mostly turns on the size of the slab, how much old concrete comes out, how much digging and base the ground needs, whether the truck can reach the forms or we need a pump, and finishes like stamping or color. The schedule turns on the permit, the supplier's trucks and the cure before you use the slab. We come over from Rancho Cucamonga, and the written estimate I give you after looking at the job spells out what's included.
Send the form or call (909) 552-8210 and tell us about the driveway, patio or slab you're dealing with. We reply within one business day, then I come out to your property, measure and look at the ground, and you get a free written estimate that spells out what's included. There's no obligation and no pressure to book.
(909) 552-8210Plan on one, because patios are on the city's list of work it issues permits for, along with retaining walls, masonry walls and pools. The list ends with "and more," and driveways and walkways aren't named on it, so for those, check with the city's Building & Safety Division before work starts. If your job needs a permit, we apply for it and track it for you.
A contractor needs a state license whenever the project needs a building permit, uses employee labor, or has contracts that add up to $1,000 or more in labor and materials. That covers nearly every driveway, patio or slab job. Ask any contractor you're considering for their license number and look it up with the board before you sign.
Yes, the city's own building code findings say two fault systems, the San Jacinto and the Rialto-Colton, run inside city limits. That finding covers the whole city and doesn't map any single lot, so it won't tell you anything about your house in particular. On foundations and footings, we build to the approved plans, steel and all.
It may get a hairline crack, because concrete shrinks as it cures, but it shouldn't break up and sink the way most old Rialto driveways do. The ones we replace were usually poured on dirt that was never packed, with joints cut late or not at all. We pack the base, add rebar, steel bars that hold the pieces together if a crack opens, where the slab calls for it, and cut joints so any crack follows a line we picked.
We're based in Rancho Cucamonga and take jobs in many cities around it across the Inland Empire, including the ones listed here. If your city isn't on the list, call and ask.
Call (909) 552-8210 or use the form, because a cracked slab lets water into the base, and the sooner I see it, the better the odds we replace one section instead of the whole thing.
