Concrete work for Country Club homes

We're based in Lodi and work in the cities around it in San Joaquin and Sacramento counties, and Country Club is one of them. Most calls from here are for the work a lived-in house needs: a driveway that's cracked and dropped at the garage, a patio that holds water after it rains, a walk that's lifted at a joint. We hear from people who live in their homes and from owners of rentals, and we pour here the same way we do in August and Stockton.

When a slab has settled, the trouble is usually underneath, in a base that was raked flat instead of dug out and packed, so most of our jobs here start with tearing out the old concrete and fixing what it sat on.

What we pour in Country Club

Homes here mostly need everyday flatwork redone where the old slab cracked or sank: driveways, patios, walks and steps. If you want more than a broom finish, the light texture that keeps feet from slipping, we also do decorative concrete with color or a pattern.

What the county's rules mean for your pour

In Country Club, building permits come from the San Joaquin County Building Division, which covers new construction, additions and remodels. Its examples of permit work are roofing, water heaters and electrical or plumbing work, which doesn't settle a driveway or patio, so we check your job with the county and help with the paperwork before we dig. That check, tear-out, base work and finish set the price and the start date, and I give you a figure after I measure.

If your lot is on one of the county's flood maps, Water Resources staff at the county Department of Public Works will help you look it up at (209) 468-3089. That matters most on a new slab foundation, because for permitted work in a flood hazard area, proof of the lowest floor elevation has to reach the county's floodplain administrator before final inspection.

I measure the job myself, tell you plainly what to expect, joints and hairline cracks included, and I'm on site with our crew when we pour.

Questions from Country Club homeowners

Here's what people in Country Club ask before they hire us. If yours isn't here, call (209) 280-3061 and ask me.

Do I need a permit for a concrete driveway in Country Club?

The county's guidance doesn't settle it for driveways, so ask before anyone digs. The San Joaquin County Community Development Department answers that question in person or at (209) 468-2098, and we check it for your job and help with the paperwork. Starting permit work without the permit adds an investigation fee equal to the permit fee.

Who can get a building permit in San Joaquin County?

Only the current property owner or a California licensed contractor on file with the county can get one. Either can name someone to act for them in writing, with forms from the department, so if you rent, the owner has to apply or authorize it.

Does a small concrete job need a licensed contractor in California?

Yes once it passes $1,000, and often below that. The state raised its small-job exemption from $500 to $1,000, but any job that needs a permit, or where the person hires workers, needs a licensed contractor at any size. We're fully licensed and insured, and the county asks for the contractor's license number in a signed statement before it issues a permit.

Does a concrete contractor need a San Joaquin County business license?

In the county's unincorporated areas, yes, unless they already hold a business license from the county or a city in it. The county Treasurer-Tax Collector issues it and it renews every year, so it's a fair thing to ask any contractor you're comparing.

Will my new concrete driveway crack like the old one?

It may get hairline cracks, because all concrete shrinks as it dries, but it shouldn't break up and sink the way a slab on a weak base does. We dig out and pack the base so the slab doesn't settle with the dirt, and we cut control joints, shallow grooves that give cracks a planned line to follow, before the slab picks its own.

What affects the cost of a new concrete driveway in Country Club?

Size, tear-out and base work move the price most, so I give you a figure after I measure on site. Hauling the old slab, thickness, rebar, the steel that holds cracks tight, and the finish all add to it. If the budget's tight, cut the stamped pattern before the base, because nobody can fix the base once it's poured.

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

Longer than before you can walk on it, because concrete keeps gaining strength for days while it cures. Heat and slab thickness change the wait, so I give you the dates for your pour. On hot days we pour early, since midday sun can leave a weak, dusty top.
