Serving Colton, CA and surrounding areas. (909) 679-6575
Colton Concrete Company is a licensed concrete contractor serving Ontario, CA, handling driveway replacement, parking lot building, patios, and flatwork repairs across all of Ontario's neighborhoods - from the older homes near Euclid Avenue to the newer subdivisions on the south side. We hold a valid California C-8 license and reply to all requests within 1 business day.
Ontario is one of the largest logistics and commercial hubs in the Inland Empire, and concrete parking surfaces hold up far better than asphalt under the heavy truck traffic and intense summer heat common across the city. Whether you operate a commercial property, a multi-family building, or a large residential lot, we build parking surfaces designed for the ground conditions and vehicle loads specific to Ontario. See our concrete parking lot building service for full project details.
Ontario's mid-century ranch homes near downtown and the Euclid Avenue corridor have driveways that are 40 to 60 years old - many are cracked and uneven from decades of clay soil movement and heat cycling. We replace aging driveways with properly prepared bases suited for Inland Empire soil conditions, so the replacement outlasts the original by a wide margin.
Ontario's warm climate means backyard patios see year-round use. We pour outdoor patio slabs with proper drainage slope so water moves away from the home rather than pooling against the foundation - a step that protects older Ontario homes from the moisture intrusion that causes stucco cracking and slab damage over time.
Sidewalks in Ontario's older neighborhoods near Euclid Avenue and downtown are often cracked and heaved from decades of clay soil movement. Damaged sidewalks create trip hazards and can expose property owners to liability. We replace failing sections and pour new sidewalks that meet City of Ontario grade standards for pedestrian safety.
Some Ontario properties - especially those on sloped lots near the foothills or with graded yards from older development - need retaining walls to keep soil in place through winter rains. A concrete retaining wall built with proper drainage behind it handles the hydrostatic pressure that causes block walls to lean and fail over time in this climate.
Ontario's attached garages - common on both mid-century ranch homes and newer subdivisions - often have thin original slabs that crack under vehicle weight and temperature cycling. We pour replacement garage floors at the right thickness for Ontario's climate, with control joints that let the concrete flex without cracking.
Ontario has about 185,000 residents and one of the most varied housing stocks in the Inland Empire - older Craftsman and Spanish Colonial homes near Euclid Avenue and the historic downtown, a large wave of mid-century ranch homes from the 1960s and 1970s, and newer two-story stucco subdivisions built in the 1990s and 2000s. Each generation of housing has its own concrete condition. The Euclid Avenue neighborhood homes are now 70 to 100 years old, and their driveways and walkways have been cycling through Ontario's clay soil expansion and contraction for most of that time. The ranch homes are in the 40-to-60-year range where original slabs commonly show cracking and uneven settling. The 1990s and 2000s tract homes are hitting 20 to 30 years, which is when concrete that was never sealed starts to show surface deterioration.
Ontario's climate adds consistent pressure. Summer highs regularly exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit, which bakes unsealed concrete and causes it to become porous and crack-prone faster than in cooler areas. Winter rains - while infrequent, averaging only about 15 inches per year - hit clay-heavy soil that cannot absorb water quickly, causing runoff to pool against foundations and driveways. Fall brings Santa Ana winds that can exceed 60 miles per hour, knocking debris onto flatwork and pulling moisture out of fresh pours. A contractor who works regularly in Ontario plans around these conditions rather than treating a job here the same as one in a coastal city.
We pull permits through the City of Ontario Development Services Department for driveway approaches, parking surfaces, and any flatwork that requires city sign-off. We know the Ontario permitting process, what the inspectors check at the base preparation stage, and how to keep projects on schedule through that process without unnecessary delays.
We work across all of Ontario - from the historic homes on and near Euclid Avenue to the commercial corridors near Ontario International Airport and the residential neighborhoods on the south and east sides of the city. The mix of home ages here means we regularly encounter everything from original-era concrete that has never been replaced to newer slabs that just need proper crack repair and sealing.
We also serve the communities around Ontario. Rancho Cucamonga is just to the north and has a comparable mix of mid-century and newer housing where flatwork replacement is a common need. We also cover Fontana, which borders Ontario to the east and shares the same soil conditions and seasonal climate patterns.
We respond within 1 business day. Tell us what you need and where the property is, and we schedule a free on-site visit at a time that works for you. No commitment required to get an estimate.
We assess the ground conditions, measure the area, and give you a written estimate covering all costs. We confirm with the City of Ontario whether a permit is needed and handle that process for you. Cost is locked in at this stage - no changes unless you change the scope.
We remove the existing concrete, grade and compact the base with the right gravel layer for Ontario's clay soil, and verify drainage before the pour. This step gets more attention in Ontario than in cities with more stable ground - it is what makes the new slab last.
Concrete is poured and finished with your chosen surface texture. We use curing measures appropriate for Ontario's climate - early morning pours in summer, curing compounds to retain moisture. We walk the site with you before leaving and coordinate the city inspection if a permit was pulled.
We serve all of Ontario - from the neighborhoods near Euclid Avenue to the newer subdivisions on the east and south sides. No obligation, no pressure.
(909) 679-6575Ontario is a city of about 185,000 people in San Bernardino County, located about 35 miles east of downtown Los Angeles along the I-10 freeway. It is one of the core cities of the Inland Empire and serves as a major logistics hub for Southern California, with Ontario International Airport and a large network of distribution centers and warehouses that employ much of the local workforce. The city has a recognizable historic core centered on Euclid Avenue, a tree-lined boulevard listed on the National Register of Historic Places that runs through the middle of the city. The neighborhoods closest to Euclid and the historic downtown have homes built in the early to mid-1900s; moving outward, you find mid-century ranch homes and then newer tract housing on the city's edges.
About half of Ontario's housing units are owner-occupied, and the city also has a significant rental population in apartments and multi-family buildings scattered across residential neighborhoods. Neighboring Rancho Cucamonga sits to the north and shares Ontario's mix of housing eras and soil conditions. To the east, Fontana has a comparable concentration of postwar ranch homes with aging concrete flatwork that we serve regularly.
