GetItDone Claremont Concrete is a Concrete Contractor in Glendora, CA, handling decorative concrete, driveway replacement, and retaining walls for homeowners throughout the city. We have served the eastern San Gabriel Valley for years and respond to all new inquiries within one business day.
Glendora homeowners invest in their properties, and many want flatwork that reflects the care put into the rest of the home. Our decorative concrete services include exposed aggregate finishes, broom textures, color hardeners, and custom designs that hold up to the intense San Gabriel Valley sun without fading or peeling.
Most homes in Glendora were built between the 1950s and the 1970s, and their original driveways are now at the end of their service life - cracked, heaved by roots, or stained beyond cleaning. Replacement here means dealing with clay subsoils and, in foothill neighborhoods, drainage planning to keep water from migrating under the new slab.
Northern Glendora properties near the Angeles National Forest often sit on sloped or terraced lots where retaining walls hold back soil on steep grades. Walls here need to be sized for the soil load and designed with drainage to handle winter runoff from the hillsides above.
Glendora enjoys a long outdoor season, and a properly poured and finished patio adds usable living space for most of the year. We build patios to drain away from the house, size them to the lot and use, and finish them to whatever level of texture or color the homeowner wants.
Hillside properties near Glendora's northern neighborhoods frequently need steps to connect different levels of the yard or to replace original concrete steps that have settled unevenly over decades. We build steps anchored to prevent future movement and code-compliant for rise and run.
Tree-lined streets in Glendora Village and older central neighborhoods see sidewalk panels cracked or lifted by root systems working under the slab over decades. The city can require homeowners to repair adjacent panels, and we handle the permits and inspections required by the City of Glendora.
Glendora sits at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains, and that foothill position creates concrete challenges that flat Inland Empire cities do not face in the same way. Homes in the northern part of the city - closer to the Angeles National Forest - sit on sloped, sometimes hilly terrain where drainage, grading, and soil stability all affect how long concrete surfaces hold up. Expansive clay soils run throughout much of the city and follow the same wet-dry cycle as the rest of the San Gabriel Valley: they swell during winter rains and shrink back under the summer sun. That annual movement puts stress on every concrete slab from below, and flatwork that was not installed over properly compacted and prepared subgrade shows cracks and heaving within a few years.
The housing stock in Glendora is mostly owner-occupied single-family homes built between the 1950s and 1970s - stucco ranch houses with attached garages, concrete driveways, and mature trees in the yard. These homes have high value and long-term owners who take maintenance seriously. The original concrete from that era is now well past its expected lifespan. Glendora summers regularly reach 95 to 100 degrees, and that heat accelerates sealer breakdown on decorative finishes and can cause shrinkage cracking in fresh concrete if the pour is not properly cured. Homes in designated fire hazard zones in the foothills also need to be mindful of material choices, as outlined by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE).
Our crew works throughout Glendora regularly, and we understand the local conditions that affect concrete work here. Glendora is served by the 210 Freeway and sits about 25 miles east of downtown Los Angeles. The city runs from the flatter grid streets near Glendora Village and Citrus College in the central and southern sections up to the winding hillside roads in the north that back up against the Angeles National Forest. Properties at higher elevation have different drainage and slope considerations than homes on the flats, and our site assessments account for that difference.
The housing stock we encounter most in Glendora is the single-story stucco ranch home from the 1950s through the 1970s - lots with mature trees, concrete driveways, and block wall fencing. These homes often have root systems that have grown under flatwork over decades, and addressing root pressure is part of how we prepare the subbase for any driveway or walkway replacement. Homeowners near Citrus College and the older Glendora Village neighborhoods tend to have the most root-related concrete damage, since those trees have had 50 to 70 years to spread.
Glendora borders Diamond Bar, CA to the south and is adjacent to San Dimas to the west. We serve homeowners in all three cities and are familiar with permit requirements across this part of the eastern San Gabriel Valley. Work that spans property lines or involves shared driveways and walls between neighbors is something we handle regularly in this area.
Reach us by phone or through the contact form and we will get back to you within one business day. Describe what you need and the general location on the property - a few details upfront speeds up the estimate.
We come to your Glendora property to measure, assess soil and drainage conditions, and review any slope or root factors. You receive a written estimate covering all labor, materials, and permit costs - no surprises after the fact.
On permitted jobs, we handle all filings with the City of Glendora before any work begins. We schedule the pour around weather and season - avoiding peak summer heat for large slabs when possible to ensure proper curing.
We complete the job, handle any required city inspections, and leave the site clean. Before we leave, we walk you through the finished work and explain the maintenance schedule - sealing timelines and what to watch for as the concrete cures.

(909) 788-2719Glendora is a city of about 52,000 residents in the eastern San Gabriel Valley, situated at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains where the Angeles National Forest begins. The city is known for its tree-lined streets, walkable downtown district centered on Glendora Village, and one of the highest rates of owner-occupied housing in the San Gabriel Valley. Citrus College, founded in 1915, anchors the central part of the city and is one of Glendora's most recognizable institutions. The 210 Freeway runs along the southern edge of the city, connecting Glendora to Pasadena to the west and the Inland Empire to the east.
Most of Glendora's housing was built between the 1950s and the 1970s during the postwar suburban expansion of the San Gabriel Valley. Ranch-style single-family homes dominate, with stucco exteriors, attached garages, and lots featuring mature trees. The northern part of the city transitions to hillier terrain with larger lots and more irregular grades, while the southern and central areas are flatter and more grid-like. Glendora borders San Dimas, CA to the west and is close to La Verne, Azusa, and Diamond Bar - a cluster of foothill communities that share similar housing stock and concrete maintenance needs.
