About Boulder City, NV

Boulder City feels different from the valley as soon as you drive in from Henderson. The older streets around the Historic District are lined with smaller homes whose walks and driveways have been patched more than once. Past them you get newer neighborhoods, manufactured homes and a handful of small commercial lots, so the calls we get here run from a cracked front walk to a worn-out parking area.

That mix shapes the job, because on an older lot we're usually tearing out concrete someone poured long ago and working around what's already there, and on a newer one we're more often starting clean.

Services in Boulder City, NV

  • Concrete driveway building

    Older driveways here often crack and sink because nobody packed the base under them. We dig out to firm ground and compact the subgrade the slab sits on before we pour.

  • Concrete patio construction

    Many backyards here still have an old slab that tips toward the house. We pour a new patio that falls away from your walls, so rain runs off instead of pooling.

  • Concrete steps construction

    Steps on older houses and manufactured homes often crack or pull away from the door. We build concrete steps on a solid footing with even step heights, so nobody catches a toe.

  • Concrete retaining walls

    Sloped yards need a wall that holds the dirt without leaning out over time. We set concrete retaining walls on a footing and drain the back so water doesn't push them over.

  • Concrete sidewalk building

    Older front walks here have often lifted and cracked over the years. We replace the bad sections and cut control joints, grooves that give cracks a planned place to form.

  • Concrete parking lot building

    Small commercial lots here usually wear out first where trucks turn in. We rebuild those spots with a deeper base and rebar, the steel inside that holds the slab together.

What's different about pouring concrete in Boulder City

Boulder City runs its own permits, and whether your driveway, patio or wall needs one is the call of the city's Community Development Department, which handles building permits and inspections here. We check that for your address first, and when a permit's needed we handle the paperwork and keep you posted, because the pour date can't be set until the city's done with it. Boulder City also isn't part of the Las Vegas Valley business license many contractors carry, so anyone working here needs a separate Boulder City business license, and the city's Business Licensing Department is where that gets confirmed. It's a fair thing to ask whoever you hire.

We're based in Sunrise Manor, and the drive down through Henderson is part of how I plan a Boulder City pour, because the concrete truck has to show up when the forms are set and the crew is ready. What moves your price is how much old concrete comes out, how much base work it needs underneath, the size and finish you pick and whether the city wants a permit or a design approval. The schedule mostly turns on that city review. My written quote lists each of those, so you see your own number.

Boulder City, NV properties and local conditions

A lot of the old concrete we tear out in Boulder City was poured on dirt that was raked level, not dug out and packed, so it settled with the ground and cracked where nobody planned. That's the part I won't skimp on. The base is hidden on day one and it's the first thing people want to cut, but a fancy finish on a bad base cracks just the same. If the budget's tight, I'd rather keep a plain broom finish, the light texture that gives your shoes grip, and spend the money underneath.

Sloped lots here send water somewhere, and too often it's toward the garage or the back door. Before we form anything, I check where the water runs now and set the slab to fall away from the house.

How a concrete job goes when you call us in Boulder City

  1. Call us or send the form

    Tell us what you're thinking about and where the property is, and we'll set a time for me to come look. It helps if you're home so you can show me what's been bothering you.

  2. I measure and write a quote

    I walk the site, measure, ask how you'll use the space and check where the water runs. The quote lists what's in it, from tear-out and base to finish, so you can see where the money goes.

  3. We handle any permit

    When the job needs a permit, we apply online, the city checks that the submittal is complete and then emails for a non-refundable plan review deposit. Review starts once that payment is verified, so we plan the pour date with you after that.

  4. We pour and clean up

    Our crew does the work with me on site the whole time, from digging out to cutting the last joint and cleaning up. Before we leave, I tell you how long to stay off it while it cures, the wait concrete needs to get hard enough to use.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a concrete driveway cost in Boulder City?

I give you a price after I've walked your driveway, because what's under the old slab moves the cost more than anything you can see from the street. Tear-out, base work, size, thickness, finish and any permit or design approval the city requires all add up, and the written quote shows each one.

How do I know if my Boulder City home needs a COA for new concrete?

Search your address on the Interactive Map Viewer linked from the city's historic preservation page, which shows whether your property is in the Historic District. Inside the district, the city wants a Certificate of Appropriateness, its design approval, for exterior changes beyond standard maintenance that need a building permit and can be seen from a public street, and the city's approval matrix sets the level of review. A new front driveway or walk is the kind of job we check on before anything gets scheduled.

Do I need a permit for a short retaining wall in Boulder City?

Not if it's under 2 feet high, because the city exempts retaining walls under that height. Anything taller is a question for the city, so we check it for your address and handle the paperwork when a permit's needed.

Who approves concrete steps attached to a manufactured home in Boulder City?

The city issues the permit and does the inspections, and the State of Nevada Manufactured Housing Division reviews and approves plans for structures attached to or directly accessible from the home. If your new steps or landing attach to the home or lead straight into it, plan on both reviews, and we'll sort out which ones apply before we set a date.

Does a small shed need a permit in Boulder City?

The city's undated FAQ says a shed under 120 square feet needs no permit, though setbacks, the required distance from your property lines, still apply and the city wants a site plan. If you want a concrete pad under it, I'll check with the city about the pad before we pour and lay it out where the setbacks allow.

What causes new concrete to crack in Boulder City, and can you prevent it?

Most cracks come from a base that wasn't dug out and packed, water getting under the slab or joints cut late or skipped, and we control all three. Concrete still shrinks as it dries, so I won't promise a slab never cracks, but a packed base, a slope away from the house and joints cut on time keep cracks in the joints where they belong.
