Concrete work built from the base
for homes and smaller businesses
I learned concrete at a large commercial outfit, pouring slabs, footings and paving for buildings and parking lots. That's where I saw that the parts nobody sees later, like the base, the forms and the layout, decide how a slab holds up, and I started Premium Gilroy Concrete to bring that same care to homes and smaller commercial jobs.
We're based in Gilroy and take work in many of the cities around it. Call (408) 427-8265 or send a note through our contact page, and if you're not sure we cover your address, just ask. You can read more about us and how we work.
What goes under your concrete gets the same attention as the surface you'll see every day.
Base and drainage settled first
We plan your concrete like a commercial job, so the base, the joints and where water runs are decided before the truck arrives. The base is hidden on day one, and it's the last place I'd cut to save money.
An estimate you can read
Your estimate is written line by line, so you can see whether removal, finish and reinforcement are in it. That makes it easy to set beside another bid and compare the same work.

Groundwork that holds up
under every slab we pour
Most cracked and sinking slabs fail underneath, so we spend our time on the base, the reinforcement and the drainage before anyone picks up a trowel.
The base is the first thing people want to trim from a budget, because it's buried on day one and the finish is what you look at. I'd go the other way. We dig out and pack the subgrade, the ground the slab rests on, so it doesn't settle with loose dirt later.
Ground here matters too. The city requires a soil report for all new construction in Gilroy because of its expansive soil, the kind that swells and shrinks with water. That's one reason we check where water runs and cut control joints, grooves that steer cracks onto lines we chose instead of letting them wander.
How we work
Call or send a message
Call (408) 427-8265 or send us a message about your project, and we reply within one business day to set a time for me to come out.
Measure and write it up
I measure the job, look at what's under and around it, and write the free estimate line by line so you see what's in it and what isn't.
Layout, pour and cure
We walk the layout with you first, joints and drainage included, then our crew pours to that plan and cures and protects the concrete before we hand it over.
Why people hire us in Gilroy
Owner on site for pours
I take the measurements myself and I'm on site for the layout and the pour, so the person who wrote your estimate is the one checking the work.
Plain talk about cracking
Concrete cracks, and I'll tell you where yours is likely to, plus what upkeep a stamped or colored finish needs, so you choose with the whole picture.
Permits pulled for you
When your job needs a permit, we pull it and line up inspections. In Gilroy that's the city's Building Division, and elsewhere I check with the office for your address.
Our own crew does the work
The people pouring your concrete work for us, not a crew we met that morning, and they build to the layout we agreed on with you.
If something about your job is still a question, we settle it on paper before the pour.
Our own crew
on site from layout to cleanup
Our crew handles a full range of concrete work for homes and businesses, including:
- Concrete driveway building
- Concrete patio construction
- Stamped concrete services
- Concrete sidewalk building
- Garage floor concrete
- Decorative concrete
- Concrete retaining walls

- Concrete pool decks
- Concrete steps construction

We set forms and protect what's next to the work, like lawn edges, siding and walkways, and we clean up each day. Before we leave, I'll tell you when the new concrete is ready for foot traffic and when it can take a car, because curing, the slow hardening that sets its strength, can't be rushed.

Clear answers on Gilroy jobs
before you sign anything
I'd rather you ask the question on the driveway than wonder about it later. I'll explain why the slab is the thickness it is, where the joints go and which way it drains, in plain terms, and if a cheaper option gives up something underneath, I'll say so before you decide.
You'll know what you're paying for, line by line, and why each part of the job is in there.
Tell us about your concrete job
Describe the job, its size and your address, and we'll reply within one business day to set a time for me to come measure it. The estimate is free, with no pressure to book.
