"I recently had the pleasure of working with Ben and his team on a major concrete project at my property in San Mateo, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Our project involved constructing a 180-foot-long sidewalk and a 16-car garage driveway on a busy street, which required precision, organization, and expertise. Ben and his team exceeded my expectations in every way. From the very beginning, Ben was professional, transparent, and detail-oriented. He walked me through the entire process, including securing the necessary city permits and clearly marking all underground utility lines to avoid any issues. His attention to detail and proactive approach gave me complete confidence in his abilities. During the project, we encountered an unexpected challenge: two segments of a corrupted underground sewer line. Ben handled the situation with remarkable professionalism and flexibility. He coordinated seamlessly with my plumber, adjusting his team's schedule to allow for the replacement of a total of 40 feet of 3" sewer lines. Additionally, he replaced the incoming copper water line without any delays or complications. This level of collaboration and problem-solving truly set Ben apart. The execution of the project was flawless. Ben and his team were incredibly organized and committed to staying on schedule. They arrived early every morning and worked diligently until late afternoon, ensuring consistent progress. It was clear that Ben treated my project as a top priority, and his dedication as a project manager was evident throughout. The quality of their work is outstanding. The finished sidewalk and driveway are not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. Ben's quote was fair and reasonable, and he delivered exceptional value for the investment. I am so grateful to have found Ben and his team. If you're looking for a reliable, skilled, and professional concrete contractor who can handle unexpected challenges with ease, Ben is the best person for the job. I will definitely hire him again for any future projects and highly recommend him to anyone in need of top-notch concrete work. Thank you, Ben and team, for making this project such a positive experience! Your expertise, flexibility, and dedication are truly appreciated."

Patios questions, answered by experts

A concrete patio lasts an average of 30 years, but the length of life you’ll get from yours depends largely on the climate. In harsh conditions, including excessive rainfall and snowfall, a concrete patio may only last for 15 years. In a moderate climate and with non-expansive, supportive soil below, a concrete patio could last for up to 50 years.

Yes, concrete steps need rebar to reinforce the structure and ensure it can hold weight over time. Place a lattice of rebar inside the form before pouring concrete to give the steps their maximum strength. Tie each intersection together with rebar ties to hold the structure all together. Without rebar, concrete steps can sink, crumble, and lose their longevity.

Some local authorities and building codes require that you secure concrete stairs to the foundation wall or to your concrete slab. Check with your local building department for guidance. For older homes without a foundation, you’ll need to install a new footing or base beneath the steps. This could be a simple gravel bed or a more complex concrete footing, which a professional concrete contractor can help you with.

While some areas may allow for a slope of up to 20%, this is often the maximum slope for driveways, with a few exceptions of up to 25%. Other regions may have a maximum of 12%, 15%, or 18%, so check with your local building department to ensure you’re laying a driveway that is up to code for your location.

A concrete pathway is very durable and can last upward of 30 years under normal conditions. Heavy snowfall and excessive heat may decrease this lifespan over time, as can vehicle traffic and salt applications during freezing conditions. Homeowners in extreme climates might notice cracking and deterioration after just 15 years, while those in more temperate climates should see multiple decades of life from their concrete.
