Why I went from framing houses to pouring concrete
I spent years framing houses before I switched to concrete, and too many of those houses sat on slabs that were out of square or out of level. Fighting that every day made me want to be the one getting the slab right, so I learned flatwork, the driveways, patios and walks that lie on the ground, on a concrete crew, and started this business in Garden Grove in 2017.
Most of our calls come from homeowners here and in the cities around us, plus builders who need footings or a slab they can frame on without fighting it. We're best known for concrete that sits flat and drains, and that comes down to the part nobody sees, because what's under the concrete matters more to me than what's on top. We're licensed and fully insured. You'll find everything we pour on our home page, and when you'd like me to come look at yours, use our contact page.
What you can expect when we take your job
Your ground gets our time first
We put our hours into digging out and packing the subgrade, the soil your slab sits on, and setting the forms before the truck shows up, so your new concrete sits flat and sheds water away from the house. A base that's only raked level settles with the dirt under it, so that's the one corner I won't cut to bring a price down.
The person who quotes it watches it get built
I come out to look at your job myself, and I'm there on pour day with the crew I've worked with for years. Nobody shows up that morning hearing about your driveway for the first time.
A straight answer, even when it's a small job
If a repair will do, I'll tell you that instead of selling you a new slab. I'll also explain the control joints, the cuts we make so the slab cracks along a line we chose, before you ever notice a crack and wonder what went wrong.
City permits handled for you
When your job needs a city permit, we pull it and handle the inspections, so you're not left working out which office to call. At the estimate I'll tell you what I know about your city's steps, and I'll check with their office when I'm not sure.
Cities we work in
Solid Form Garden Grove Concrete is based in Garden Grove, California, and we work across the cities around it, from Westminster to Anaheim.
