About our Santa Barbara concrete contractor crew
How I came to concrete in Santa Barbara
I came to concrete in my late thirties, after years at a desk job where getting the numbers right was the whole job. I learned the trade here in Santa Barbara on a flatwork crew, pouring the driveways, patios and walks that sit on the ground. I worked my way through forms, pours and finishing, and I started Premier Santa Barbara Concrete in 2017, once I felt I could stand behind every part of the work.
What I care about most is what you can't see once the concrete is down: the ground work, the forms and where the water goes. Concrete cracks, and I'll tell you that plainly at the estimate. I'll also explain how we cut control joints, grooves that give a crack a place to run, so I'm not promising a slab that won't move. Homeowners call us, and so do property owners and builders who want a careful crew. You can see the work we take on from our home page.

What working with us looks like on your job
These are the things you'll notice from the first visit to the day the forms come off. They come from how I learned the trade and how I run every job we take on.
The same person from estimate to pour
I measure your job, write your estimate and I'm on site when we pour, so what you agreed to is what gets built. Nothing gets lost between the person who priced it and the crew doing it.
Plain talk about cracks and curing
We tell you up front what concrete can and can't do, so cracking, curing time and what the city asks for don't catch you off guard. Curing is the wait after the pour while the slab gains strength, and we'll tell you when it's ready for feet and when it's ready for a car.
Your site ready before the truck comes
We have the ground dug out and packed, the forms set and the water's path checked before we call the concrete truck, because concrete that sits waiting on a crew doesn't finish as well. That prep is the first thing people want to trim from a budget, and it's the last thing I'll cut.
Licensing, insurance and permits for your job
Fully licensed and insured.
Premier Santa Barbara Concrete is fully licensed and insured. Bring it up when I come out to measure, and I'll go over it with you before you decide anything.
Building permits in the City of Santa Barbara
Inside the city, the Building and Safety Division issues building permits, and the city's Permit Center helps with permits and approvals for construction. We check with the city or county office that covers your address before we set a date, and if your job needs a permit, we pull it or walk you through it and plan around review and inspections. If you're not sure which office covers you, ask us through our contact page.
