What We Pour

Concrete From the
Footing to the Curb

We grade and compact the base ourselves before we pour, so the concrete doesn't crack, settle, or lift.

City Sidewalks

Remove and replace lifted, cracked, or trip-hazard sidewalk in the public right-of-way, under city permit and to the city's standard plans.

Driveway Approaches

New, widened, or replaced driveway approaches and curb cuts, permitted and inspected by the city.

Footings & Foundations →

Footings and foundations for ADUs, additions, and new construction, dug, reinforced, and poured to the approved plans.

Slabs & Pads

Slabs on grade, equipment pads, and parking pads on a properly compacted base.

Curb, Gutter & ADA Ramps →

Curb and gutter, rolled curb, valley gutters, and ADA curb ramps for cities, developers, and commercial sites.

Walkways & Flatwork

Commercial walkways, entries, and flatwork around buildings and parking lots, often paired with our asphalt work.

City Sidewalk Work

Why Our License Matters for Sidewalks

Sidewalks, curb ramps, and driveway approaches usually sit in the public right-of-way, which belongs to the city. Work there needs a city permit, and cities expect a contractor with the right license classification and insurance to pull it. Many concrete contractors only work on private property.

Our Class A General Engineering license covers public right-of-way concrete. We pull the permit, build to the city's standard plans, and get it inspected and signed off.

  • Sidewalk repair notices from the city
  • Trip hazards and root-lifted sidewalk
  • New or widened driveway approaches and curb cuts
  • ADA curb ramps and accessible walkways
  • Public works sidewalk and curb contracts (DIR-registered)

How We Build It

The Base Decides How Long It Lasts

Most failed concrete fails from below: soft soil, poor compaction, or water running under the edge. We hold grading and paving licenses (C-12 and C-21) and own our equipment, so we prepare the base ourselves before we pour.

  • Remove old concrete and haul it off
  • Grade and compact the subgrade
  • Form to the city standard or approved plans
  • Reinforcement where the plans call for it
  • Pour, finish, joint, and cure
  • Inspection and sign-off
Concrete + Asphalt

One Crew, Both Materials

Many jobs need both: a new driveway approach and the asphalt behind it, or ADA ramps and walkways along a parking lot. We do the concrete and the asphalt, so there's one contractor, one schedule, and one bid.

FAQ

Concrete FAQ

Yes. Our Class A General Engineering license covers concrete work in the public right-of-way, including sidewalks, curb ramps, driveway approaches, and curb and gutter. We pull the permit from the city (the Bureau of Engineering in the City of Los Angeles, LA County Public Works in unincorporated areas, or the local public works department elsewhere), build to the city's standard plans, and schedule the inspections.
It depends on the city. California law allows cities to make the adjacent property owner responsible for sidewalk repair, and many do. If you received a repair notice from your city, send us a photo of it. We can handle the permit, removal, and new concrete to the city's standard.
Yes. We excavate, set rebar and anchor bolts to the approved plans, call for inspection, and pour footings and foundations for ADUs, additions, and new construction. See our footings and foundations page.
Yes. We form and pour curb and gutter, rolled curb, valley gutters, and ADA curb ramps for cities, developers, and commercial properties. See our curb and gutter page.
Typically foot traffic after 24–48 hours and passenger cars after about 7 days. Concrete keeps gaining strength for about 28 days, so heavy trucks should wait longer. We give you the timing for your specific pour.
Yes. QGP is DIR-registered for prevailing wage public works and holds A, B, C-12, C-21, and C-36 licenses. We bid sidewalk, curb ramp, and curb and gutter work as a prime or as the concrete and paving subcontractor.
