We review the site conditions, check for anything that might affect the job - soil, slope, tree roots, existing concrete - and handle the permit application with the city on your behalf. You see a detailed written proposal so there are no surprises about scope or price when work starts.
Our crew shows up on the scheduled day and completes the job to spec. After the concrete cures, we walk the finished work with you to make sure everything looks right. If the project required a city inspection, we coordinate that too. You only pay when the job is done to your satisfaction.
We hold an active California Contractors State License Board license. Every job carries full liability insurance and workers compensation - so if anything goes wrong on your property, you are not left holding the bill.
We come to your property, measure the area, look at the site conditions, and give you a written quote. No phone estimates, no vague ranges. You know the exact scope and price before you commit to anything.
We are a local business, not a regional chain. We know the permit process at Union City's Building Division, the clay soil conditions across the East Bay, and what driveways and patios in this neighborhood actually go through.
The price on your written estimate is the price you pay. We do not add line items after the job starts. If something unexpected comes up that affects cost, we tell you before we touch it.

They came out to look at my driveway on a Tuesday and had a written quote in my inbox that same day. The crew showed up exactly when they said they would, pulled the permit themselves, and the new driveway was ready to drive on in a week. Exactly what they told me upfront.
Marco T., Union City - Concrete driveway building
I had a patio in the backyard that had cracked and sunk in two spots. They tore it out and poured a new one with a proper base. No more water pooling near the back of the house after it rains, which was the whole reason I called them. Clean work, no mess left behind.
Priya S., Fremont - Concrete patio construction
Wanted stamped concrete on the front walkway to match the look of the house. They brought samples to show me the color in outdoor light, not just a photo from a catalog. The finished result looks like real stone. Neighbors have asked me about it twice since.

(510) 738-1780Union City Concrete is based in Union City, CA and serves 12 cities across the East Bay, including Fremont, Hayward, Newark, and San Leandro. Most jobs can be scheduled within the same week. We cover a roughly 20-mile radius and know the permit requirements and soil conditions in each area.
Clay soils in the East Bay swell when it rains and shrink when it dries. That cycle puts stress on slabs from below every year. Proper base compaction and control joints are the main defenses against it.
Concrete typically outlasts asphalt by 10 to 15 years in dry, mild climates like Union City's. Asphalt softens in summer heat and needs sealing more often. Concrete costs more upfront but less over its lifetime.
Patching works for small isolated cracks. Once sections start heaving, sinking, or crumbling, patching delays the inevitable. Most driveways in Union City built before 1990 are at or past replacement age.
A contractor removes old material, excavates several inches of soil, and compacts a gravel base before any concrete is poured. This step is what separates a slab that lasts 30 years from one that cracks in five. Portland Cement Association on subgrade preparation.
Walk on it after 24 to 48 hours. Drive on it after seven days. The concrete keeps gaining strength for 28 days. Most damage happens when people drive on a new slab too soon - tire marks and surface cracks that cannot be undone.
Not dramatically after a single event, but cumulative minor ground movement adds up over decades. Slabs built with adequate thickness and proper control joints handle this far better than thinner, under-reinforced work.
Union City Concrete is a licensed and insured Concrete Contractor company based in Union City, CA, serving 12 East Bay cities since 2025.
We hold an active license through the California Contractors State License Board, the state authority that licenses, bonds, and oversees all contractor activity in California. Every job we take on is covered by liability insurance and workers compensation.
Since opening, we have completed concrete projects across all 16 of our service categories - from driveway replacements in Union City to foundation pours in Fremont and Pleasanton.

Many Union City neighborhoods - particularly newer planned communities - have HOA rules about driveway finishes, patio coverage, or exterior changes. Check with your HOA before signing a contractor agreement. Changes required after the pour can be expensive.
Concrete poured during heavy rain can be permanently damaged before it cures. The safest window is April through October. If your project is urgent in winter, we work around dry stretches and use the right techniques to protect the pour.
Make sure each quote covers the same scope: removal of old material, base preparation, concrete thickness, finish type, and permit fees. A bid that skips base prep or leaves out the permit is not actually cheaper - it just moves the cost down the road.

Union City was incorporated in 1959 and grew quickly through the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. Most of the housing stock dates from that era, which means a large share of homes are now 40 to 60 years old. Original driveways, patios, and sidewalks from those decades are at or past the end of their useful life - and that is the most common reason people call us. Learn more about Union City on Wikipedia.
The city has about 75,000 residents and sits in Alameda County, with easy access via the Union City BART station and Interstate 880. Neighborhoods range from older ranch-style homes near Mission Boulevard to newer townhomes near Union Landing. Median home values are well above $700,000, and most homeowners here take maintenance seriously. See Union City census data.
The clay-heavy soil that runs through much of the city is the single biggest factor shaping concrete work here. It moves with the seasons, and any contractor who does not account for it is setting up a project for early failure. We have built our process around those soil conditions - proper base compaction, the right concrete thickness, and control joints placed where they actually protect the slab. That is what makes concrete work in Union City last.
