No usable backyard? Cracked or uneven patio? GetItDone Claremont Concrete builds concrete patios that handle Claremont's clay soil, tree roots, and summer heat - with permits managed and drainage built in from the start.

Concrete patio construction in Claremont means excavating the area, building a level gravel base, pouring a properly mixed slab with a drainage slope built in, and finishing the surface - most patios take one to three days of active work plus seven or more days of curing before you can place furniture on them.
Most homeowners in Claremont come to us with one of two situations: an outdoor space that is mostly dirt or patchy grass that turns to mud after rain, or an existing patio that has cracked and shifted because the original contractor skipped proper base prep. Both are fixable - the difference is just in how much demolition is involved at the start. If you want to complement your new patio with decorative finishes, stamped concrete services can be incorporated into the same project.
We handle the City of Claremont permit process from start to finish and include a city inspection before we close out the job. The permit is your protection - it means an independent set of eyes confirmed the work meets local standards.
If your backyard is mostly dirt, gravel, or patchy grass that turns to mud after rain and bakes hard in summer, you are losing usable living space every season. A concrete patio gives you a clean, stable surface for furniture, a grill, or a dining area that works year-round in Claremont's climate without constant upkeep.
Cracks wide enough to catch a finger, sections that have shifted up or down, or surface areas that crumble when pressed are signs the slab has failed structurally. In Claremont, this kind of damage is often caused by clay soil moving underneath the slab over years of wet and dry cycles.
If standing water collects against your house after a rainstorm, the grade around your home may be directing water toward the foundation rather than away from it. A properly sloped concrete patio redirects that water and protects your foundation from long-term moisture damage.
Sections of your patio pushed up from below, or a surface that is no longer level, are signs of root intrusion. Claremont's mature tree canopy is one of the city's most loved features - but it also means root systems are widespread, and a new patio needs to account for root proximity from the start.
Every patio project starts with a free on-site visit. We measure the space, check soil conditions and root proximity, assess existing drainage patterns, and give you a written estimate that separates materials, labor, and permit fees. We discuss finish options at the estimate stage so you understand exactly what each choice costs before signing anything.
After the permit is pulled, our crew excavates the area, compacts the soil, lays a gravel base, and builds formwork to hold the slab shape. On pour day, we fill the form, work quickly to level and finish the surface, and cut control joints before the concrete sets. If you also need covered water features nearby, our concrete pool deck service can extend your outdoor project in the same mobilization.
The most practical everyday choice. A brushed texture adds grip when the surface gets wet and suits any outdoor furniture arrangement.
Small stones exposed on the surface create a textured, slip-resistant look that handles direct Southern California sun without fading.
Patterns that mimic brick, slate, or wood. Popular in HOA communities where appearance matters and a plain slab would look out of place.
Claremont is known as the City of Trees - which is beautiful, but also means large root systems are common under residential yards. Before we dig, we assess how close major roots are to the patio area and whether the slab placement needs to be adjusted. We may also recommend a root barrier depending on the tree species and proximity. Skipping this step is how patios in this neighborhood end up lifting within a few years of installation.
The clay-heavy soil in the Pomona Valley also requires extra attention to base compaction and drainage. Homeowners in La Verne and San Dimas face the same conditions and we apply the same preparation approach across the entire service area. For background on concrete patio standards, the Concrete Network covers patio construction, drainage, and finish options in plain language.
We respond within 1 business day to schedule a free on-site estimate. We visit your property to measure, check root proximity and soil, and discuss finish options before giving you a written price.
We submit the permit to the City of Claremont before work begins. Permit processing typically takes a few business days to a couple of weeks. We handle the scheduling and notify you when the crew will arrive.
The crew removes existing material, grades and compacts the soil, lays a gravel base, and builds formwork. The pour typically happens in a single day, with the crew starting early in summer to avoid afternoon heat.
Light foot traffic after 24 to 48 hours. Keep furniture and heavy items off the slab for at least a week. The city inspector visits, and we do a final walkthrough with you to confirm the slope, joints, and finish meet your expectations.
We respond within 1 business day and all estimates are free with no obligation. After you submit this form, someone from our office will call to schedule a free on-site visit so we can give you an accurate written quote.
(909) 788-2719We check for major root systems near the patio area before breaking ground. For high-risk locations, we adjust placement or recommend a root barrier. Skipping this step is the main reason patios in Claremont's tree-lined neighborhoods fail within a few years.
We apply for and track the city building permit on every flatwork project. You do not visit City Hall. The inspector signs off before we close out the job, so your patio is fully documented - which matters at resale.
We have been working in this soil and climate since 2019. That means we understand how clay soil, heat, and the local tree canopy interact with a concrete slab - not from a manual, but from jobs we have completed in this neighborhood.
Every quote includes a site visit and a written price that separates materials, labor, and permit fees. You know exactly what you are paying for. The American Concrete Institute publishes guidance on what a properly built patio should include - we use those standards on every job.
A properly built patio in Claremont starts below the surface and ends with a city inspection. Contact us to schedule your free on-site estimate and see what that looks like in practice.
