View serviceMuch of Universal City was built decades ago, and the original driveways and walks are thin, un-reinforced, and sitting on soil that has shifted many times since. When we replace them we rebuild the base, add steel, and set joint spacing to the actual dimensions instead of copying whatever was there. Roots and old utility trenches under the existing concrete are common, so we plan for both.
That is the difference between a concrete installation that still looks right in ten years and one that needs repair before it is paid off. We would rather spend an extra day on base and steel than come back for a warranty crack.

Pricing depends on square footage, thickness, reinforcement, access, and how much demo or dirt work the site needs. A standard residential driveway replacement in Universal City is priced very differently than a shop slab or a patio cut into a slope, so we measure on site and give you a fixed number with the spec written on it. Most quotes go back within 24 hours of the walk.
Typical residential flatwork in Universal City runs two to four working days on site: demo and prep, forms and steel, then the pour and finish. You can usually walk on it the next day and drive on it after seven days, depending on temperature and the mix we used.
Yes. We pull what the jurisdiction requires and build to the local detail for approaches, sidewalks, and driveways, including right-of-way work where the city inspects the tie-in. On commercial jobs we hand back compaction and pour documentation for your file.
All concrete shrinks, so the honest answer is that we control cracking rather than eliminate it. Compacted subgrade, correct thickness, rebar on chairs, and control joints cut at the right spacing on pour day are what keep shrinkage in the joints instead of across the middle of your slab.
We self-perform both. Clearing, excavation, trenching, grading, and compaction are our own crews and our own equipment, which is why we can stand behind the pour on Bexar County soils instead of pointing at whoever prepped it.
