PSB Chino Concrete Works serves Pomona, CA homeowners with driveways, patios, retaining walls, and sidewalks - all pulled to permit, built with proper clay-soil base prep, and backed by a free on-site estimate within 1 business day.
Pomona has one of the highest concentrations of mid-century homes in the eastern San Gabriel Valley - and many of those houses still have their original driveways from the 1950s and 1960s. If yours is cracking, sinking, or too narrow for how you live today, our concrete driveway building service covers demolition, clay-soil base preparation, the pour, and all required permits.
Pomona's smaller residential lots - typically 5,000 to 7,000 square feet - mean that backyard space is limited and homeowners want every square foot to count. A poured concrete patio is one of the most durable ways to get a clean, usable outdoor surface without the ongoing upkeep a wood deck requires in this climate.
Properties along Pomona's hillside streets and near the foothills deal with slope and drainage issues that flat lots do not. A concrete retaining wall holds graded areas in place, keeps soil from migrating toward the street after winter rain, and solves drainage problems that can otherwise damage a foundation over time.
Sidewalk repairs and replacements in Pomona often involve the City of Pomona Public Works Department when work touches the public right-of-way. We handle the permit and encroachment approval process and build to the city's ADA-compliant standards for residential sidewalks.
Many of Pomona's older homes - particularly in Lincoln Park and the streets around downtown - have original concrete steps at the front entry that have cracked or shifted over decades of clay-soil movement. Replacing them is one of the fastest ways to improve the appearance and safety of an older home's front approach.
Pomona sits at the eastern end of Los Angeles County, where the San Gabriel Valley meets the Inland Empire. The soil here has a high clay content - it expands after winter rain and contracts during the long dry summers, creating a cycle that stresses concrete slabs from below year after year. This is the main reason driveways and patios in Pomona crack and shift faster than homeowners expect, even when the surface looked fine when it was first poured. The fix is not a thicker slab - it is a properly compacted base that absorbs that ground movement before it reaches the concrete.
A large share of Pomona's housing was built between the 1940s and the 1960s, which means the concrete around most of these homes is now 60 to 80 years old and well into the deterioration phase. Homes in Lincoln Park and the streets around downtown Pomona often have original concrete that was never designed for today's vehicle weights. In contrast, properties near Cal Poly Pomona on the eastern edge of the city tend to be newer and in better structural condition, but the clay soil creates the same long-term pressure on any slab that was not built with a proper base.
We file permits with the City of Pomona Building and Safety Division for flatwork projects, and we handle the separate encroachment permit for any work that touches the public right-of-way along the street. Pomona's permit process for standard residential concrete is straightforward, and most approvals come back within one to two weeks.
Pomona spans about 23 square miles and sits between the 10, 60, and 71 freeways. Most of our work here is in the established residential streets that run between Garey Avenue and Indian Hill Boulevard, and in the older neighborhoods near the Fairplex on the north side of the city. The Lincoln Park historic district has some of the oldest housing in the Inland Valley - homes here need contractors who know how to work carefully around original materials. The neighborhoods near Cal Poly Pomona on the east side are newer but still face the same clay-soil challenges as the rest of the city.
Our base is in Chino, which puts us about 15 to 20 minutes from most Pomona neighborhoods. We also serve Ontario to the east, so if your property is near the Pomona-Ontario border, our team is already familiar with the concrete conditions on your side of the line. We work throughout the area and also serve Corona to the south, giving us a wide view of how soil conditions vary across this region.

(840) 200-1378Pomona is a city of over 150,000 people at the eastern end of Los Angeles County, where the San Gabriel Valley meets the Inland Empire. It is home to Cal Poly Pomona, one of the largest universities in the Cal State system, and to the Fairplex, the site of the Los Angeles County Fair every September. The city covers about 23 square miles and has a dense mix of single-family neighborhoods, older multi-family buildings, and commercial corridors along its major streets. A large share of the housing stock dates to the 1940s through 1960s - ranch homes, bungalows, and modest stucco houses on lots that are smaller than the regional average.
The Lincoln Park historic district in central Pomona is the most architecturally distinctive part of the city - it has Victorian, Craftsman, and Colonial Revival homes from the late 1800s and early 1900s, many of which are on the National Register of Historic Places. Homeowners in Lincoln Park often need contractors who can work carefully around original materials and understand that exterior changes may be subject to additional review. Pomona borders Ontario to the east, and many properties near the city line share similar soil and construction conditions with our Ontario service area. We also serve Corona to the south, reaching homeowners throughout this corner of Southern California.
