Ventura Concrete Co installs driveways, patios, stamped and decorative concrete, slabs, foundations, and retaining walls for homeowners and businesses across Ventura and the surrounding Ventura County communities.
Concrete on the Ventura coast has to contend with conditions that inland work never sees. Salt air and the marine layer keep surfaces damp for long stretches, clay-heavy soils shift with the seasons, and the hillside neighborhoods above Foothill Road sit on very different ground than the beach-adjacent flats of Pierpont. We account for all of it — air-entrained mixes, sealers rated for coastal exposure, and expansion joints placed for how the ground here actually moves — because concrete poured without that local judgment is concrete that cracks early.

We’ve built our process around what coastal Ventura County actually does to concrete.
Residential and commercial concrete — new installation, decorative finishes, and repair — across Ventura and the surrounding coastal communities.
A properly installed concrete driveway lasts 30 or more years with minimal upkeep. We assess slope, drainage, and soil before pouring, and size the slab to the traffic it will carry — 4 inches for passenger cars, 5 to 6 inches for trucks and RVs.

A concrete patio is a practical, low-maintenance outdoor surface for Ventura’s year-round outdoor weather. We design and pour patios to fit your yard, with finishes from smooth brushed concrete to stamped patterns.

Stamped concrete delivers the look of natural stone, brick, or slate at a lower cost, with no individual pieces to shift or settle. Ashlar slate, cobblestone, flagstone, wood plank, and more.

Raised foundations, slab-on-grade, and monolithic pours built to current California Building Code — footing depth, rebar placement, and vapor barriers matter in a seismically active coastal county.
Learn more
Walkways poured on compacted bases that resist the clay-soil movement common in Ventura County, with proper slope and drainage, control joints at correct intervals, and ADA-compliant ramps where required.

From hairline crack injection to bonded overlays that restore a worn surface at a fraction of replacement cost. We assess whether damage is structural or cosmetic before recommending anything.

Ventura’s hillside terrain and seasonal rain make retaining walls a necessity on many lots. Poured concrete, CMU block, or natural stone — every wall we build includes proper drainage behind it.

A slip-resistant, textured finish that reveals the natural stone within the mix — practical for pool decks, driveways, and walkways in Ventura’s damp coastal conditions.

Integral color mixed into the pour, acid stains with a mottled variegated look, or water-based dyes for uniform tone — all protected with UV-stable sealers rated for coastal exposure.

Industrial slabs, parking lots with ADA-compliant stalls and ramps, and retail or office flatwork across Ventura County — scoped with a written quote before work begins.

We walk the site, assess slope, drainage, and soil conditions, and talk through finish options before recommending anything. You get a written quote — no obligation.
We excavate, grade, and compact the base, set forms to final dimensions, and place reinforcement sized to the load the slab will carry. Permits are pulled first where the city requires them.
We pour, screed, and finish the concrete — broom, stamped, exposed aggregate, or colored — and cut control joints at calculated intervals so cracking is managed, not random.
Once cured, we apply a sealer rated for coastal exposure, walk the finished work with you, and cover care and resealing intervals so the surface lasts.
Typical residential concrete installation in Ventura County often falls between $6 and $12 per square foot for standard poured work — a 20x20 driveway, for example, commonly lands in the $2,400 to $4,800 range before decorative upgrades. Stamped, stained, and exposed aggregate finishes run higher, and factors like slab thickness, site preparation, reinforcement, and access all move the number. The only accurate way to price your project is to see the site in person — your free estimate will lay out prep needs, finish options, and a written quote before any work begins.
We install and repair concrete for both residential and commercial properties throughout Ventura. Our services include driveways, patios, slabs and foundations, sidewalks and walkways, retaining walls, and commercial concrete flatwork. On the decorative side, we offer stamped concrete, exposed aggregate, and stained or colored concrete. Every project starts with a free on-site estimate and a written quote before any work begins.
Cost depends on the size of the project, site preparation, slab thickness, finish type, and reinforcement. Typical residential projects in Ventura County often fall in the range of $6 to $12 per square foot for standard poured concrete, with stamped and decorative finishes running higher. The only accurate number is a written quote after we’ve seen your site — every estimate is free and carries no obligation.
For a standard residential driveway used by passenger vehicles, 4 inches is the minimum accepted thickness. However, 5-inch concrete offers noticeably better resistance to cracking under heavier loads like trucks, SUVs, and RVs. In Ventura County, where clay-heavy soils can shift with seasonal moisture changes, the extra inch provides more structural margin.
We offer three main decorative finishes. Stamped concrete uses textured molds to replicate stone, brick, or slate at a lower cost than pavers. Exposed aggregate reveals the embedded stone beneath the surface for a naturally textured, slip-resistant finish. Stained or colored concrete uses acid stains, water-based dyes, or integral color mixed into the pour itself.
It depends on the scope. Decorative flatwork like patios and walkways often does not require a permit. Foundations, retaining walls over a certain height, and structural slabs typically do require a permit from the City of Ventura Building and Safety Division or Ventura County, depending on your property’s jurisdiction. We advise you on what applies to your project before work starts. In California, any concrete work valued at $500 or more in combined labor and materials legally requires a licensed contractor — we are fully licensed and insured.
The right method depends on the type and extent of the damage. Hairline cracks and minor spalling can often be addressed with polyurethane or epoxy fillers followed by a resurfacing overlay. Wider structural cracks or significant deterioration may call for full slab replacement of the affected panels. We inspect the surface in person before recommending any approach, and provide a written quote before work begins.
