Concrete contractor for Pleasant Grove homes

Pleasant Grove sits between Lindon and American Fork, a short drive from our base in Orem, and it's mostly homes, with shops and offices along the main roads. Near the center of the city you'll find older houses whose driveways, walks and steps have done their years, and farther up, newer subdivisions where the lots climb toward the mountain.

That means a lot of our jobs here start with tearing out old concrete at a house you're still living in, which is the work I started this business to do. Before anything new goes down, I want to know why the old slab gave up, because the answer decides how we rebuild it.

Concrete work we do in Pleasant Grove

What Pleasant Grove homes ask of new concrete

Most of the sunk and cracked slabs I look at here have a problem underneath, not on top. A lot of older concrete went down on dirt that was raked level instead of dug out and packed, so the subgrade, the ground the slab rests on, kept settling and pulled the concrete down with it. We dig to firm ground and compact a real base before any forms go up. If the budget's tight, that's the last place I'd cut, because you can redo a finish later but you can't fix a base without tearing the slab back out.

Slope is the other thing we plan around on lots that rise toward the mountain. We check where the water runs before we set forms, so your new driveway or patio drains away from the house instead of toward it. Concrete does crack, so we cut control joints, shallow grooves that give the slab a planned place to crack, early enough that the cracks follow our lines and not their own.

Pleasant Grove concrete questions

How much does a new concrete driveway cost in Pleasant Grove?

The price of a Pleasant Grove driveway comes down to its size, how thick it needs to be, whether the old concrete has to be broken out and hauled away, and how much base work the ground needs. A plain broom finish, the light brushed texture that gives tires and shoes some grip, costs less than stamped or colored work, and a steep driveway or a tight spot for equipment adds labor. I'll walk the site with you and give you your number at the estimate.

How long does it take to replace a concrete driveway in Pleasant Grove?

The work itself is usually the shorter part, and curing, the wait while fresh concrete hardens enough to take weight, is what keeps you off the driveway longest. Tear-out, base repair and how the slab meets the garage and the street set the days we're on site, and you can walk on the new slab well before you can drive on it. I'll lay out the schedule for your job at the estimate.

Do I need a permit for concrete work in Pleasant Grove, UT?

If the work builds, alters or moves a building or structure, Pleasant Grove's city code says the city's building inspection division has to issue a permit before the work goes ahead. An issued permit is the city's sign-off from both the community development director and the building official. Whether your particular driveway, patio or wall falls under that is the city's call, so we check with the city before we schedule, and when a permit is needed we handle the paperwork and the inspections.

Does a concrete contractor need a business license in Pleasant Grove?

Yes, the city's business license rule requires any business working inside Pleasant Grove city limits to get a city business license first. Where the state requires a business to hold a state license, the city wants that in place before it issues its own. It's a fair question to ask anyone you're thinking of hiring, and we're licensed and insured.

What building code applies to concrete work in Pleasant Grove, Utah?

Utah uses one State Construction Code statewide, with state and local amendments, and it covers building, alteration, remodeling and repair. From July 2025 to July 2026 it was based on the 2021 International Building Code and International Residential Code, and that version has since been replaced. Because the code changes, we go by what the city applies when it looks at your job, not an old checklist.

How do I check if my Pleasant Grove lot is in a geologic hazard area?

You can look up your address on the Utah Geological Survey's geologic hazards map, but a blank spot doesn't mean your lot is clear. Most hazards have been mapped only in specific study areas, not across the whole state, so a place with no data can still have them. If something about your ground worries you, bring it up at the estimate and I'll tell you what we find once we dig.
