Whittier Concrete Company handles driveways, patios, foundations, and more for homes and businesses across the Whittier area. Local crew, licensed and insured, free estimates.
Whittier Concrete Company is a concrete contractor serving Whittier, CA and the surrounding Los Angeles area. We build and repair concrete driveways, patios, sidewalks, foundations, retaining walls, pool decks, and more - 16 services total, covering nearly every concrete need a homeowner or business has. Many of our clients have homes built in the 1950s through 1970s with aging concrete that is overdue for replacement. We do the work right, starting with the ground prep, not just the surface pour. We serve 12 cities and communities in the region.
Cracked or uneven driveway? A new concrete driveway adds curb appeal and handles heavy traffic for decades - built with the right base for Whittier's clay soil.

No usable backyard? A poured concrete patio gives you a clean, level outdoor space your family can actually enjoy - properly sloped so water drains away from your home.

Want the look of stone or brick without the price? Stamped concrete adds pattern and color to any driveway, patio, or walkway while keeping the strength of solid concrete.

Uneven or heaved sidewalk panels are a trip hazard and can get you flagged by the city. We replace damaged sections and build new walkways that stay level through Whittier's seasonal ground movement.

Dusty, cracked garage floor? A fresh concrete slab seals out moisture, hides oil stains, and gives you a surface that is easy to keep clean - with finish options from plain to polished.

Plain gray concrete does not have to be your only option. Decorative concrete - with color, texture, or pattern - upgrades the look of any surface inside or outside your home.

Sloped yard losing soil every time it rains? A concrete retaining wall holds the grade in place, stops erosion, and can be built to blend with your landscaping.
Learn More
New construction or a garage conversion? A properly poured and leveled concrete floor is the foundation everything else builds on - done right the first time.
Learn More
Cracked or slippery pool deck? We pour and finish concrete pool decks with the right texture for wet feet and the right slope to keep water off the deck and out of the pool.
Learn More
Chipped or uneven entry steps leave a poor first impression and create a safety issue. We build concrete steps that are level, durable, and matched to the scale of your home.
Learn More
Adding a room, garage, or ADU? A properly prepared concrete slab foundation starts with the right soil work and correct thickness - the part that determines whether your addition stands for decades.
Learn More
Foundation work done wrong creates problems that are expensive to fix later. We install concrete foundations built to local soil conditions and Whittier's seismic requirements.
Learn More
High-traffic lot wearing out fast? Concrete parking lots outlast asphalt by decades and hold up to commercial vehicle loads without constant patching.
Learn More
Footings are the part of your project you will never see - but they determine whether everything above stays put. We pour footings correctly the first time, to code.
Learn More
A settling foundation causes cracks, sticking doors, and uneven floors. We raise and stabilize foundations before the damage spreads to the rest of your home.

Need to open a section of concrete for plumbing, electrical, or drainage work? We cut clean, precise lines without damaging the surrounding slab.
Learn MoreReach out by phone or the contact form on this site. We respond within 1 business day. You tell us what you need - driveway, patio, foundation, or something else - and we schedule a time to come take a look at no charge.
We come to your property, measure the area, check the soil and drainage, and talk through your options. You get a written estimate that breaks down exactly what is included - materials, prep, labor, and any permits needed - before any work begins. No pressure.
Once you approve the quote, we pull any required permits, schedule the crew, and get to work. From demolition and base prep to the final pour and finish, we manage every step. We clean up when we are done and walk you through the finished work before we leave.
We hold a valid CSLB contractor license, which you can verify on the state website. General liability and workers' comp coverage are in place on every project - so you are not exposed if something goes wrong on your property.
Every quote starts with an in-person visit so we can see the actual site, not just guess from a description. You get a written estimate with line-item detail before we ask for anything. No phone-only quotes, no surprise charges.
We are a local company, not a national franchise. We work in Whittier and the surrounding cities every week and we know this area's soil, permit process, and seasonal conditions - which means fewer surprises on your job.
If something is not right with the finished work, we come back and fix it. We stand behind the quality of every pour - not with a verbal promise but with a written guarantee you have in hand before the job starts.

"They showed up when they said they would, pulled the permit themselves, and finished the driveway in two days. No cracks after the first rainy season - which was my main worry given how old the original slab was."
Robert M., Whittier - Concrete driveway building
"The backyard patio came out better than I expected. They graded it so water drains away from the house, which my previous contractor had never done. Really made a difference when the winter rains hit."
Diana L., Downey - Concrete patio construction
"I needed two sections of my front sidewalk replaced after the city sent a notice. They handled the permit, matched the texture of the existing concrete, and were done the same day. Reasonable price too."
Frank T., Norwalk - Concrete sidewalk building

Concrete outlasts asphalt in hot climates because it does not soften in high temperatures. Asphalt can rut and deform when summer heat in Whittier pushes into the 90s repeatedly - concrete stays rigid.
Whittier's clay soil swells when wet and shrinks when dry, putting constant stress on concrete from below. A slab without a compacted gravel base underneath will crack with the seasons - proper base prep is the fix.
Foot-traffic areas like patios and sidewalks use 4-inch slabs. Driveways and areas where vehicles park need 6 inches to handle the load without cracking. The right thickness is one of the first questions a good contractor asks.
If cracks are wider than a quarter-inch, sections have shifted, or the surface is flaking, replacement is more cost-effective than repeated patching. The Portland Cement Association notes that patches on a failing base are a temporary fix at best.
Driveways and most significant replacements require a permit from the City of Whittier. Patios at ground level may not, depending on size. Your contractor should check before work starts - pulling the permit is their job.
You can walk on new concrete after 24 to 48 hours, but vehicles should stay off for at least 7 days - and ideally 28 days for heavy vehicles. Concrete does not just dry - it cures chemically, and that process takes time.

We have completed projects across all 16 of our concrete services, from driveways and patios to slab foundations and parking lots.
Learn more about usA significantly lower quote usually means something is being left out - base preparation, the permit fee, the sealant, or proper demolition. Ask for a line-item breakdown on every quote so you can compare the actual scope, not just the final number.
Go to the California CSLB website and search by license number or company name. The listing shows whether the license is active, what work it covers, and whether any complaints have been filed. Takes about two minutes and tells you a lot.
Yes - especially in Southern California's climate. UV exposure and occasional heavy rain wear down an unsealed surface faster. The American Concrete Institute recommends sealing new flatwork within 28 days of the pour and reapplying every two to three years.

Whittier is a city of about 87,000 people in Los Angeles County, located about 12 miles southeast of downtown LA. The city has a distinct identity - with its walkable Uptown Whittier district, the hillside Friendly Hills neighborhood in the south, and the wide open space of the Whittier Narrows Recreation Area to the north. It is a community where people tend to stay and invest in their homes.
A large share of Whittier homes were built in the 1940s through 1970s - many within a few blocks of Whittier College and throughout the flat residential streets that make up most of the city. These homes are owner-occupied at a rate of about 55%, and their concrete - driveways, patios, sidewalks, and steps - is often 50 to 60 years old. Much of it is overdue for replacement. The city also sits near the Whittier Fault, and the 1987 earthquake that struck nearby reminded a lot of homeowners that foundations and concrete flatwork need periodic inspection and upkeep.
Whittier Concrete Company is built for this market. We know Whittier's clay soil, its permit process, and the kinds of jobs that older homes here typically need. If your home is in Friendly Hills, on one of the flat residential streets near Uptown, or anywhere else in the city, we have likely worked nearby. Call us or submit a request and we will come take a look.
