Commercial Concrete Work We Do
We work as a concrete subcontractor on commercial projects of all sizes — from retail tenant improvements at active shopping centers to ground-up construction. Our scope typically includes:
Ground-Up Construction
Foundations, structural slabs, CMU block walls, and site concrete for new commercial buildings. We coordinate with your GC and structural engineer from permit through final inspection.
Tenant Improvements at Active Sites
Concrete work within or adjacent to operating retail centers and commercial properties requires tight scheduling, dust and noise management, and coordination with property management. We have done this work at some of the most active commercial corridors in Los Angeles.
Structural Slabs and Foundations
Engineered slab-on-grade, elevated slabs, mat foundations, spread footings, and caisson systems for commercial buildings.
CMU Block Construction
Concrete masonry unit walls for commercial buildings, retaining structures, and screen walls. We hold a C29 Masonry license in addition to our C8 Concrete classification.
Commercial Flatwork and Site Concrete
Parking lots, drive aisles, loading docks, sidewalks, curb and gutter, and site flatwork for commercial and mixed-use developments.
Featured Commercial Projects
We've worked on commercial projects throughout Los Angeles County, including:
The Grove at Farmers Market — Ground-Up Restaurant Construction
IT'SUGAR — Retail Tenant Improvement, Universal CityWalk
Citadel Outlets Commerce — Logistics Building, Ground-Up Construction
High Point Academy — Concrete & Masonry, Pasadena
Commercial Foundations and Structural Concrete
Commercial projects often require foundation systems that go well beyond a standard residential slab. We build structural concrete foundations for commercial buildings — spread footings, mat foundations, grade beams, and caisson systems. On hillside or canyon-adjacent commercial sites, we also handle hillside and caisson foundation work where unstable surface soil requires deep-foundation solutions. Commercial retaining walls and structural slabs are also a regular part of our commercial scope.
Working with General Contractors
Most of our commercial work comes through general contractors who need a reliable, licensed concrete subcontractor. We understand what GCs need from a sub:
- Accurate scope and schedule from the start — no surprises mid-job
- Coordination with structural engineers, special inspectors, and other trades
- Crews that show up on schedule and work efficiently on active job sites
- Proper documentation — submittals, RFIs, inspection coordination
- Licensed, bonded, and insured with current certificates of insurance
- Experience with DSA, LADBS, and LA County Building & Safety inspection processes
