Concrete work we handle in Perris, CA
Prime Perris Concrete is a concrete contractor in Perris, CA, with 16 services that run from a new patio or front walk to footings, foundations and small parking lots. Most calls start with something you can see, like a driveway that's cracked and sinking or water pooling against the house, and we build the new work to come out level and drain away. Price moves with the size of the area, how much old concrete and dirt comes out, the base work, the slab's thickness and the finish you pick. The schedule turns on permits, the weather and curing, the days new concrete needs to harden before it takes foot traffic and then cars. Your written estimate lists what's in it and what isn't.
Concrete driveway building
We build new driveways and replace worn-out ones, digging out and packing the base first, because a slab is only as steady as what's under it.
Concrete patio construction
Want a solid spot out back for a table and chairs? We pour patios that slope slightly away from your house, so rain runs off the edge.
Stamped concrete services
Stamped concrete is colored and pressed with a pattern while it's still soft, for homeowners who want a patio or walkway that looks like stone, brick or tile.
Concrete sidewalk building
We build sidewalks and front walks for homes and small properties, with control joints, shallow grooves that tell the concrete where to crack.
Garage floor concrete
Garage floor cracked, stained or sloping the wrong way? We break out the old slab and pour a new one that sheds water toward the big door.
Decorative concrete
Decorative concrete covers stained, scored and textured finishes for homeowners who want a patio, entry or walk to match the house instead of plain gray.
Concrete retaining walls
We build concrete retaining walls that hold back a slope or level out a yard, with a footing below and drainage behind so water can't build up against it.
Concrete floor installation
Need a hard, level floor inside a shop, shed or small commercial space? We pour interior concrete floors flat and trowel them smooth.
Concrete pool decks
Pool decks around a new or rebuilt pool get a textured top for wet, bare feet and a slope that carries splash water away from the house.
Concrete steps construction
We form and pour concrete steps for front entries, porches and changes in yard grade, with every rise the same height so nobody catches a toe.
Slab foundation building
A slab foundation is the concrete base a house, addition or garage sits on. We pack the subgrade, the ground beneath it, and set steel to the plans.
Foundation installation
Building an addition, a shop or a small commercial building? We lay out, dig and pour the foundation, checking each form against the plans first.
Concrete parking lot building
For small business owners and property managers, we pour concrete parking lots and drive aisles graded to drain, with joints laid out for daily traffic.
Concrete footings
Footings are the buried concrete that carries a wall, post, patio cover or addition, and we dig and pour them to the size the plans call for.
Foundation raising
Doors sticking, or a crack climbing from a corner? Foundation raising lifts a settled slab or foundation back toward level, and we look for why it sank first.
Concrete cutting
We saw-cut concrete for doorways, plumbing trenches, control joints and clean edges where old slab meets new, so the break lands where it should.
Why homeowners and property owners hire us
Most of what makes concrete last gets decided before the pour. These are the habits I brought over from commercial work, and how we handle your job from the estimate on.
Checked before the truck rolls
I learned on commercial jobs where every form got checked against the plans before a truck came. We do the same on your driveway or slab, because concrete doesn't give you a second try once it sets.
One person from estimate to pour
I come out to look at the job and write the estimate myself, and I'm on site with our crew when it's poured. You won't get handed off to someone who never saw your yard.
Straight talk about cracks
Concrete shrinks as it dries, and most slabs crack somewhere. We tell you that up front, and I'll show you where each control joint goes and why, so cracking tends to follow lines we chose.
An estimate you can compare
Your written estimate spells out what's included and what isn't, line by line, so you can set it next to another bid and compare the same things. Call (951) 418-3042 to set up a visit.
Our process, from your call to pour day

Call or send the form
Call (951) 418-3042 or send us the form with a few lines about the job and your city. We reply within one business day to set a time for me to come out. A rough size and what's bothering you about the old concrete help me show up ready.
I measure and write it up
I come out, measure, ask how you'll use the space and look at where the water goes. You get a free written estimate, line by line, showing what's included and what isn't. If the job needs a permit, we sort that out before we set a date.
We prep and pour
Our crew digs out, packs the base and sets the forms. On pour day I'm on site, and we check the forms, the base and the joint layout before the concrete arrives. Then we place it, finish the top and cut the joints while the timing is right.
Curing and walk-through
Curing is the wait while new concrete gains strength, so we tell you when it's ready for feet and when it's ready for cars. We pull the forms, clean up and walk the finished job with you before we call it done.

Perris and the weather we pour in
Perris is home to the Southern California Railway Museum, where weekend visitors ride trolleys and rail cars behind old locomotives, and downtown, the historic Santa Fe Depot houses the Perris Valley Historical Museum and its exhibits on the city's early years. Nearby, Lake Perris sits in a valley ringed by mountains between Moreno Valley and Perris, and the Lake Perris State Recreation Area draws people for water sports and hiking trails.
The weather shapes concrete work here. Summers are hot and dry, and most of the little rain we get falls in winter, with February the wettest month, so we watch when we pour and make sure every slab sheds water away from the house. We're based in Perris, so this is the weather we plan around on every job.

Questions about concrete work in Perris
How much does a new concrete driveway cost in Perris?
It depends on your driveway's size and what's under it, so I give you a figure after I measure, not over the phone. Tear-out and haul-off, base material, slab thickness, steel and the finish each show up as their own line on your free estimate.
Is stamped concrete more expensive than a plain broom finish?
Usually, yes, because stamping adds color, a pattern pressed in by hand while the concrete is still soft, and a sealer, which all take more labor on pour day. A broom finish, the light brushed texture that gives shoes and tires grip, costs less and is the usual pick for driveways and walks.
How long will I be without my driveway when it's replaced?
You're without it from tear-out until the new slab has cured enough to take a car, and we'll tell you that day for your slab once it's poured. Curing time depends on the mix, the thickness and the weather, and you can walk on it well before you can drive on it.
Does a concrete contractor need a license in California?
Yes, the Contractors State License Board requires a state license when a job needs a building permit, uses any additional workers, or totals $1,000 or more in labor and materials. A bigger job can't be split into smaller contracts to stay under that amount, and we're licensed and insured.
Do I need a permit for concrete work in Perris?
Some concrete jobs do, including new construction, additions, foundation repairs and retaining walls over 3 feet tall, and for anything else, such as a driveway or patio, ask the city's Building & Safety Division. The city notes that work without a construction permit may still need another kind of review. When a permit is needed, we take it out and handle the paperwork, or tell you early what we need if you'd rather pull it yourself.
Do you guarantee your concrete work?
Yes, our work is satisfaction guaranteed. We'll also be honest that concrete can crack, which is why we cut joints so cracks are more likely to follow them than wander across the middle of the slab.
Will my new concrete slab crack like the old one?
It may get a hairline crack or two, but it shouldn't break up and sink like the old one if the base is dug out and packed and the joints are cut on time. Old slabs that fail usually sat on dirt raked level instead of compacted, so they settled with it. If your budget's tight, I'd rather you cut back on the finish than the base, because nobody can fix what's under a slab without tearing it out.
Is it OK to pour concrete in the Perris summer heat?
Yes, as long as the timing is right, because a hot, dry afternoon pulls water out of the top too fast and can leave a weak, dusty surface. In summer we'd rather start early in the morning and keep the slab damp while it cures.
