About our Santa Maria concrete company
We pour driveways, patios, walks and foundations for homeowners in Santa Maria and the cities around it. I walk every job myself, and we put real time into the base, joints and curing.

Built from the base up
I came to concrete in my late thirties, after years in other work, and learned the trade on another finisher's crew. I started J&D Santa Maria Concrete Company in 2017, and I'm still the one who answers the phone and walks every job. I remember being new to this, so I explain what your job needs in plain terms.
We're based in Santa Maria and work across the Santa Maria Valley and the cities around it, from southern San Luis Obispo County down to Lompoc and Buellton. Most of our calls come from homeowners and small property owners. We're best known for flatwork, the driveways, patios and walks around a house, and for getting it straight so it holds up.
Concrete wins or loses in what nobody sees later, like the subgrade, the ground it sits on, the joints we cut to steer cracking, and curing, the wait while it hardens. If a budget has to give, I'd rather cut the finish than the base, because a nice top over loose dirt still settles and cracks. And I'll tell you straight when your job needs less, or a different fix.

How we run a job
- Same person, estimate to pour day. I look at your job and write the price myself, then I'm there with our own crew on pour day, so nothing gets lost in between.
- A written estimate, line by line. Your estimate is written out line by line, from tear-out and hauling to the base under the new slab, so you can see what's in it.
- Water checked before we form. Before we set forms, the boards that shape the slab, we check where your water runs so the new slab drains away from the house.
- Licensed, insured, permits handled. You can check our license, or anyone's, with the state licensing board. When a job calls for a permit, we file it and set up the inspections.
What we pour and build
- Concrete driveway building A new driveway, from tearing out the old cracked or sunken slab to packing the base and pouring. It's worth doing once patching stops keeping up.
- Concrete patio construction When the patio is uneven, sinking or holding puddles, the trouble usually starts underneath, so that's where we start too.
- Stamped concrete services Concrete pressed with a pattern while it's still wet, so it looks like stone, brick or tile. A good pick for patios and walks you see every day.
- Concrete sidewalk building Front walks and side paths, replaced when a raised edge starts catching feet. We give them a broom finish, a lightly brushed texture that helps shoes grip.
- Garage floor concrete A new garage slab when the old one is cracked or sinking at the door. It carries your car every day, so we pour it thicker than a walk.
- Decorative concrete Color, exposed stone and other finishes for slabs that sit out front or around the yard, where plain gray would look out of place.
- Concrete retaining walls Concrete walls that hold back a slope or a raised bed. We look at the drainage behind it first, because trapped water is what pushes walls over.
- Concrete floor installation Interior concrete floors for shops, additions and other rooms that need a hard, flat surface, either as the finished floor or under tile and wood.
- Concrete pool decks The slab around your pool sees bare feet, splashing and chlorine. We give it a textured finish so wet feet get some grip.
- Concrete steps construction Front and back steps rebuilt when they've cracked, pulled away from the house or settled unevenly. Each step gets the same height, so they feel even to climb.
- Slab foundation building The slab a new garage, addition or small building sits on. Packing the ground and getting it level here sets up everything built on top.
- Foundation installation Foundations for new homes, additions and outbuildings, reinforced with rebar so the steel holds the concrete together if it cracks. These jobs usually need a permit.
- Concrete parking lot building For small property owners with a lot or shared drive, we pour slabs built for steady traffic, with joints and drainage planned across the whole lot.
- Concrete footings The concrete pads and strips under posts, walls, decks and patio covers. They're small, but they carry the load, so we dig them down to firm ground.
- Foundation raising If a slab or foundation has settled and doors stick or floors slope, we find out why it sank first, then raise and support it.
- Concrete cutting Saw-cutting openings, trenches and clean edges in existing concrete, for a new doorway, a plumbing line or taking out just the broken section.
What concrete work looks like
Driveways, patios, steps, walls and foundations all start with the same groundwork, so look through these example photos of the trade.
