Concrete driveway building in Beverly Hills CA - a slab built for what you park

Driveway cracked, sinking or holding puddles? We dig out, pack the base and pour a new slab with joints planned before the pour.

A concrete driveway meets a closed black metal gate between brick pillars, with a large house and angel statues beyond.

What does building a new concrete driveway in Beverly Hills involve?

Concrete driveway building in Beverly Hills means breaking out the old drive, digging down to firm ground, packing a solid base and pouring a new slab for your cars that meets the street at the driveway approach, the ramped part of the sidewalk where the curb drops.

Most people call when the old driveway has cracked, sunk at one end or started holding water, and by that point patching usually isn't worth it. The price moves with the size and shape of the slab, how much old concrete has to come out, how heavy the vehicles are and how much work the street end needs. The schedule mostly turns on the permits and on curing, the days after the pour when the concrete gains strength and has to be left alone. I'll measure everything with you on site, and the written estimate lays out your options and what each one includes.

Why people pick us for Beverly Hills driveways

We take the time to explain what goes under the surface, so you understand the base, the steel and the joints before you sign anything.

  • The owner comes out

    I look at your driveway myself and write the estimate, then I run the job on site while our crew works.

  • In business since 2021

    I learned the trade on a small concrete crew by asking the finishers why they did each step.

  • Licensed and insured, ask anytime

    We're licensed and insured, and you're welcome to ask about either at the estimate before you decide anything.

  • Our satisfaction guarantee

    Your new driveway is backed by our satisfaction guarantee, and our crew cleans up the site before we leave.

  • Talk it over on site

    Call (424) 550-5006 and I'll come out, look over the driveway with you and answer your questions on the spot.

The concrete driveways we build here

We pick the slab around what you'll park on it and how the street end meets your lot, and we plan both parts together before anything gets broken out.

  • A slab for everyday cars

    For passenger cars, which covers most homes, we dig out to the subgrade, the ground the slab sits on, pack a firm base over it and set rebar, the steel that holds the slab together if it cracks. The base gets buried on day one and it's the first thing people want to cut, but I won't skimp on it, because steel can't make up for soft ground and a slab only stays flat if what's under it stays put.

  • Built for heavier vehicles

    If you'll park a work truck, an RV or a trailer on it, tell me at the visit, because heavier loads can call for a different slab design. It's far easier to plan for the weight now than to replace a slab that wasn't built for it.

  • Driveway and street approach together

    We plan the slab on your lot and the curb cut at the street as two parts of one job, and we look into the street end early because it has its own permits and inspections. That way the two meet cleanly and the street side doesn't hold up the rest.

  • A patio or walk in the same job

    If you're also thinking about a concrete patio or a new walk to the door, it's worth planning it with the driveway so the slabs line up. If you'd like a pattern on any of it, we can talk through stamped concrete at the same visit.

What happens when you call about a new driveway?

We plan the job around how you use your driveway, so before the pour you'll know when to park on the street and which parts to keep off.

  1. You get in touch

    Call us or send the form with your address, and we'll set a time for me to come look at the driveway.

  2. I look at the job

    I walk the driveway and the street end with you, ask what you'll park on it and answer whatever questions you have.

  3. Your written estimate

    You get a written estimate that lays out your options and explains what's included, so you can compare them side by side.

  4. Permits, pour and handover

    Once you say yes, we handle the permit side and the prep, pour the slab, then walk you through looking after the new concrete.

Questions about Beverly Hills driveways

Do I need a permit for a new concrete driveway in Beverly Hills?

Yes, paving in a front yard needs a building permit from the city, and the approach at the street needs its own permits on top of that, which we go over in the section below. We find out what the city asks for at your address and take care of the paperwork, and if something has to come from you, like drawings, we tell you early.

How much of my front yard can I pave in Beverly Hills?

South of Santa Monica Boulevard, the city allows no more than 400 square feet of paving in a front yard, and north of it, no more than 33% of the front yard. That limit sets how big your driveway can be and what shape it takes, so I'll measure with you at the visit, and the city can confirm the details for your lot.

What does a concrete driveway cost in Beverly Hills?

A reinforced concrete driveway slab on a flat lot in Beverly Hills usually costs about $12 to $20 per square foot. That's the usual range for the slab itself on level ground, not a quote from us. After I see your lot, the written estimate lays out what your driveway includes and each option you have.

Will my new concrete driveway crack?

Probably a little, because no one can stop concrete from cracking entirely, but well-designed control joints keep it small and in the right places. Control joints are cuts that give the slab a planned place to crack, and before we pour, I'll show you where ours go so you know what to expect. Whoever you hire, ask how they'll lay out the joints.

How long does a new concrete driveway need before I can drive on it?

Longer than it looks, because concrete keeps gaining strength after you can walk on it, and a dry color or a hard top doesn't tell you it's ready for a car. Curing starts right after we finish, and the new edges and corners need protecting from tires early on. I'll tell you when your slab is ready for the car before we leave.

How do I choose a contractor for a driveway in Beverly Hills?

Start with the license, because the city requires a licensed contractor on any project worth $1,000 or more, and for driveway approach work it requires an insured contractor holding a Class A, C-8 or C-12 license. Owner-builder work is limited to owner-occupied single-family homes and condos, and condos are held to interior work, so most driveway jobs go to a contractor.

Concrete driveway building in Beverly Hills, from lot to curb

In Beverly Hills, the approach where your driveway meets the street is its own piece of the job, with its own rules from the city. Approach permits are applied for in person at the city's Permit Center with a plot plan and a request for a pre-inspection, fees are due when it goes in, and the city also asks for Heavy Hauling and Street Use permits because the work happens in the street. An inspector checks the forms before the pour and comes back for a final, and the city says the approach should be plain concrete that matches the sidewalk color. The city also pauses work in the street from November 16, 2026, through January 4, 2027, so if your approach needs replacing, we plan around those dates and take care of the approach application with the rest of the permit paperwork.

Most driveway calls we get here are replacements, where an older slab has cracked or settled and the approach at the curb is tired too. We're based in Beverly Hills and work across many of the cities around it, and we build the same two-part job in West Hollywood and Santa Monica, checking each city's own requirements before we start. If your city isn't on our list, ask us anyway.
