About our concrete contractor company in Merced

How I came to pour concrete in Merced
I worked summers on concrete crews all through school. That's where I learned to read a job site and move fast without cutting corners. In 2023 I started Standard Merced Concrete here in Merced so I could run jobs the way I was taught. Most of what we pour is flatwork, the flat slabs like driveways, patios and garage floors, and we also set footings and foundations.
Most of our calls come from homeowners, plus property owners who need a slab or a lot done. What I care about most is the part you can't see once it's poured. That's the ground the slab sits on, the joints we cut so cracks follow a straight line we chose, and the curing, the days of slow drying before you put weight on it. A slab only holds up if that work is right, so that's the part we don't rush. You can see everything we pour on our home page.

How we handle your concrete job
These are the things you'll notice from the first visit to the cleanup, because they decide whether your driveway or patio holds up and whether the job runs the way you were told.
The person who bids it runs it
I come out to look at your job myself, and I'm on site running the crew when we do the work. You get straight answers on the spot, and nothing gets lost between the estimate and the pour.
Ground, joints and curing come first
We sort out the base, the joints and the curing before anyone sets a form, because that's what keeps a slab from sinking and cracking. The base is buried on day one, so it's the first thing people want to cut, and we'd rather your money go there than into the finish.
Your written estimate says what's in it
The size of the job, how much digging and base work your ground needs, and the finish you pick are what move the price. Your estimate comes in writing with what's included and what isn't, and you can ask for one by phone or through our contact page.
Licenses and permits for Merced concrete work
City of Merced business license
The city requires a contractor to hold a City of Merced business license before applying for a permit, so it's fair to ask any contractor to show it before that step starts. Work on the city's land along the street, like a sidewalk or the end of a driveway at the curb, also needs the city's encroachment permit, and when your job needs a permit we check with the office that covers your address and take care of those steps with you.
Licensed and insured
We're licensed and insured. Ask us about either one when we come out to look at your job.
