Pasadena concrete for mid-century homes and working driveways
East of Houston along the Ship Channel, Pasadena is a city of post-war ranch houses, long-time owners and driveways that have seen sixty years of trucks.
Pasadena grew up with the refineries and plants along the Houston Ship Channel, and much of the city was built in the 1950s and 60s: brick and frame ranch houses on modest lots, many owned by the same families for decades. Further south toward Armand Bayou and Clear Lake the homes get newer. The concrete on the older streets is often original, and it shows: driveways broken into slabs, ribbon drives, carports with sunken floors, and walks lifted by trees that were saplings when the houses went up.
Pasadena homeowners also tend to use their concrete hard. Work trucks, trailers and boats park on driveways designed for one sedan. When we replace a Pasadena driveway we usually recommend more thickness and heavier steel than the original, and a wider pad if there's room and the city allows it.
We also pour slabs for carports, workshops and room additions, built to plans and permitted through the City of Pasadena where required, and we take on the repair work that keeps older concrete going a few more years when that's the sensible choice.

Pasadena questions
My driveway is original from the 1950s. Replace or repair?
Usually replace, especially if it's thin and broken across most of its length. If you're planning to sell soon, a few targeted panel replacements might make more sense; we'll price both.
Can you pour a carport slab?
Yes, with thickened edges or footings where the posts land, built to the plan the city permits.
Do you work in Deer Park and South Houston too?
Often. Call with the address and we'll tell you if we can schedule it.
