We pride ourselves on providing exceptional craftsmanship while remaining on schedule and within budget.
This article breaks down five areas in which our work meets and exceeds each General Contractor’s needs and expectations.
Estimating
Led by Bob Martinez, who has been in the concrete industry for over 42 years, our estimating team clearly understands what it takes to break down a project and assign values to different components of the work. We establish trust by being transparent and straightforward in our communication. We ask the necessary questions to ensure that pricing is accurate and fair. Then, we create a detailed plan and get to work.
Supervision
We demonstrate genuine care for our work by providing exemplary job site supervision and management. Our president, Matt Shaw, shows up every day to each project. Through being personally involved in scheduling and overseeing job sites, both Matt and Bob ensure first-class workmanship every time. Their accessibility to employees and clients alike means that our team works thoroughly and efficiently - this highlights our worth ethic and sets us apart from competitors.
Administration
Our billing is straightforward and fair, and we always include appropriate releases and required paperwork. Even when hired by a General Contractor, we remain mindful and aware of their client's specific needs and desires. In light of this, we pay our suppliers on time, giving the General Contractor the necessary paperwork to assure their client that all bills are being taken care of in a timely manner.
Production
Partnering with some of Santa Barbara’s best contractors, we work on complex projects with aggressive schedules. We continually demonstrate dedication and qualified expertise to get the work done accurately and promptly. With our Class A General Engineer Contractor License along with our C-8 concrete license, we are able to offer all structural and architectural concrete services.

When working with a General Contractor, we understand that we represent their business and services while in the field. With this in mind, we demonstrate excellent customer service while interacting with clients. We remain focused and on-task, clean the job site at the end of each day, and communicate professionally and politely.
