Concrete Contractor in Upland, CA - Driveways and Patios Built on a Solid Base
Superior Eastvale Concrete is a concrete contractor based in Eastvale that pours driveways, patios, walkways, steps and slabs for homes in Upland, CA, starting with a dug-out, packed base under every one.
Upland jobs start below the surface. That's where we look first.
We drive up from Eastvale to pour driveways, patios, walks and front steps for homes in Upland, the same work we do in Ontario and Home Gardens. Upland has 9 locally designated historic districts, so at an older house I check whether it's a listed property before we plan.
Price moves with size, thickness, base work, tear-out and finish. The schedule turns on any permit and the curing wait, and I put your figure in writing after seeing the site.
We check the ground first. Then we price the slab.
Before I plan a slab, I want to know what it carries, what's under the old one and where water goes when it leaves. The city's building page lists a design rainfall of 4 inches an hour, so a slab that tips toward your house is one we won't pour.
- Whether the base needs digging out and packing
- Where water runs off the slab
- What the slab carries, cars or just feet
- Where control joints go before the pour
More than driveways. Here's what else we pour in Upland.

Pay for the base once. Skip it and pay again.
Rake the dirt level instead of digging it out and packing it, and the slab settles with the dirt. Pour at midday and the top can turn weak and dusty. Cut the joints late, and the cracks pick their own spots.
So we dig out and pack the subgrade, the ground the slab sits on, add rebar, the steel that holds the slab together, where the load calls for it, and pour in the cooler part of the day. That base is hidden on day one, which is why it's the first thing people cut. I'd rather trim the finish.
Here's how it goes. One call, one visit, one crew.

Upland questions, answered plainly. Most of them, anyway.
Here are straight answers on permits, cracks and timing for concrete work in Upland. If your question isn't here, call and ask me.
Do I need a permit for concrete work in Upland?
It depends on the work, and the city's Building and Safety Division is the office that handles building permits. Its no-permit list covers fences 6 feet or less and block walls 2 feet or less, not driveways or patios. When it's unclear, we ask the division before we start, and we pull the permit when one's needed.
How do I request a building permit in Upland?
Online, because the division takes building permit requests only through the city's building permits page. The application asks for an upload of the contractor's license and a current Upland business license, so ask anyone you're comparing for both. On our jobs, we pull the permit.
Does my older home in Upland need extra review for exterior concrete work?
Only if it's a designated historic resource, not just because it's old. Exterior changes that alter a designated property's appearance need a Certificate of Appropriateness, a design approval from the city's Planning Division, and the local register holds over 580 properties. I check your status before we plan.
Will my new concrete driveway crack like the old one?
Some, probably, because concrete cracks, and I'd rather tell you now than after. What we control is where. Control joints, grooves cut into the slab, give it a place to crack in a straight line, and a packed base and rebar help keep cracks from sinking or spreading.
How long will I be off my driveway after the pour?
Until the concrete cures, which is the wait while it hardens enough to take weight. A driveway waits longer for cars than a patio does for feet. We'll go over the wait for your slab at the estimate, so you can plan around it.
