Concrete Contractor in Camarillo, CA - Driveways and Patios Built on Solid Ground

Yes, the City of Camarillo issues a grading permit for any grading, with a separate permit for each site, and one permit can cover both digging and fill. The application lists how much earth you expect to move. When your job needs one, we prepare and file it and meet the inspector on site.

No, the city takes permit plans only online now, through its permitting and licensing system. If you'd rather ask a question in person, the public counter is at 601 Carmen Drive, and you can call it at (805) 388-5340. When we handle your permit, we file it for you.

Yes in most cases, because the Contractors State License Board requires a license when a job needs a building permit, uses employee labor or costs $1,000 or more in labor and materials. A home improvement contractor has to hold that license before bidding, though the board lists a few exemptions. We're licensed and fully insured.

Yes, anyone doing business in Camarillo pays a yearly city business tax, and a business license from another city doesn't take its place. The contractor applies with the city's business tax office, so it's a fair thing to ask about when you're comparing bids.

Concrete can still crack, but many cracks in old slabs trace back to a base that was raked level instead of dug out and packed, or to joints cut late or skipped. We pack a firm base, slope the slab away from the house and cut control joints early, so a crack usually follows a straight groove we chose.
