Our story

CSLB-Licensed and Based on Chicago Avenue, Riverside

Riverside Concrete Pro is a locally owned concrete contractor in Riverside, CA. Founded in 2021 by a contractor with 15 years on Inland Empire crews, we handle residential and commercial concrete across 20 cities in Riverside and San Bernardino counties.

We pour driveways, patios, slab foundations, retaining walls and stamped finishes across a city that has been building since 1870, which means half our work is deciding what to take out before anything goes back in. Every pour is backed by a written workmanship guarantee.

We hold an active C-8 Concrete license with the California Contractors State License Board, carry liability insurance on every job, and file both the building permit and the encroachment permit that any work in a Riverside parkway needs. Every estimate is measured and written on site.

Who you will be dealing with

Marco Delgado, Founder of Riverside Concrete Pro

One person measures the job, writes the figure and stands over the pour, and it is the same person on every one. What came before that is 15 years of somebody else's crews.

Marco Delgado

CSLB C-8 licensed, Lives in Arlington, On site for every pour

Marco Delgado spent 15 years on Inland Empire concrete crews before opening Riverside Concrete Pro in 2021. He started as a laborer setting forms, moved onto the finishing end, and ran flatwork crews through the years when the tracts east of the 215 were still going in. What stayed with him is how much of a job in this city is decided before any concrete arrives on the street.

He lives in Arlington, a few minutes from the office, and he is on site for every pour rather than sending a crew and a phone number. That is a working decision rather than a courtesy: a finish is judged in the twenty minutes when a slab is ready for it, and nobody makes that call from a truck on the other side of the city.

The C-8 license from the California Contractors State License Board is held in his own name rather than rented from a qualifier who never sees a job site. He carries liability insurance on every job, hands over a written workmanship guarantee against defects in how it was built at the walk-through, and returns calls within 1 business day. Every estimate is measured and written on site.

“I have opened lots here where the old fill ran past three feet. You want to find that with a probe on the estimate visit, not with a crew there and a truck already rolling.”

Our standards

Six Rules on Every Riverside Pour

Six rules that do not bend for the job, the street or the month. They came out of 15 years of watching what fails in this valley, which is nearly always the part nobody can see once the concrete is down.

Probe before you promise

The subgrade is opened and probed at the estimate visit, so the base depth is a measured number on the page before any truck is booked.

The written figure holds

Every estimate is measured and written on site, itemized by demolition, base, mix, steel and area. The number you sign is the number invoiced.

Materials named, not implied

Class 2 base under the flatwork, 3,500 psi ready-mix and number 3 rebar in a driveway, each written on the estimate rather than assumed.

One crew, start to finish

Marco Delgado measures the job and stands the pour, and the four who set the forms are the four who finish it. Calls back within 1 business day.

The guarantee is a document

Every job carries a written workmanship guarantee against defects in how it was built. A claim is then a call, not an argument.

The phone rings in a truck

There is no franchise behind this name and no call center in front of it. The crew lives in Arlington, La Sierra and Casa Blanca.

How it got here

From a Riverside Crew to a Chicago Avenue Office

Eight dates, in the order they happened: 15 years learning the trade on other people's crews, then 2021 onward under this name and out of this office.

2006

First season on a crew

Marco Delgado started as a laborer on an Inland Empire flatwork crew, setting forms and pulling screed through a Riverside July.

2014

Onto the finishing end

Eight years in, he was running the finish on tract flatwork, the end of the job where the twenty minutes after the pour decide the surface.

2021

Founded on Chicago Avenue

Riverside Concrete Pro opened with one truck and took residential driveways and patios first, on the streets between Magnolia and the 91.

2021

Licensed in his own name

The C-8 Concrete license from the California Contractors State License Board, the class covering every service on this site, held by the owner.

2022

A crew of four

Two laborers and a finisher joined, which is the size that lets a residential slab go in and out inside one working week.

2023

The guarantee, in writing

The workmanship guarantee moved onto the estimate itself, in the same words on every job, so nothing about it depends on who remembers what.

2024

Out to the county line

The coverage list reached 25 miles in every direction, north past Fontana and west into Corona, from the one office on Chicago Avenue.

2026

Where it stands now

16 concrete services across 2 counties, calls back within 1 business day, and the owner still measuring and pouring every one of them.

What can be checked

Licensed, Insured and Documented in Riverside

Eight things a homeowner can verify without taking our word for any of them. Each card is one fact with a place to go and look it up or ask for the paper.

CSLB C-8 license

A C-8 Concrete license from the California Contractors State License Board, held in the owner's name and searchable by name on cslb.ca.gov.

Liability insured

We carry liability insurance on every job. The certificate goes out before the first day on site, and to a Canyon Crest HOA that asks for one.

Crew covered on site

Workers' compensation covers every person on the job, so an injury in your driveway lands on our policy and never on your homeowner's.

Built to CA code

Footings and slabs under structures go in to the California Residential Code, which is also where the Expansion Index 20 line on clay comes from.

Guaranteed in writing

The guarantee is written into the estimate you sign, covering the base, the thickness, the joints and the finish.

Estimates on paper

Every estimate is measured and written on site and left with you that visit, so there is nothing to compare against a quote nobody wrote down.

Batch tickets kept

Each load arrives with a delivery ticket naming the mix and the yardage, and a copy goes in your file, so 3,500 psi is checkable afterward.

Reviews under our name

The business is reviewed under its own name on Google, Facebook and the BBB. Read them before you call, and look for a job like yours.

Counted, not claimed

Riverside Concrete Work by the Numbers

Around town

The Riverside Streets We Are On Every Week

The office is at 3820 Chicago Ave, on the stretch between the university and Hunter Park, and it is a place to reach us rather than a showroom to visit. Most of the working day is spent somewhere else in the city, which is a wide one: Riverside runs from the Santa Ana bottomlands up onto the benches and out to the tracts on the eastern edge, and the drive across it is half an hour.

The calls sort themselves by where the houses came from. The older grid west of Brockton wants driveways taken out and replaced, because those lots have had a century of trenches through them. Arlington and La Sierra, built out in the fifties and sixties, mostly want a patio, an RV pad or a garage floor that has settled. Orangecrest, Mission Grove and Canyon Crest are newer and call about extensions rather than replacements.

Beyond the city the same drive reaches every town inside 25 miles, across Riverside and San Bernardino counties, and the ready-mix comes from a plant inside that circle so a load is not an hour old when it tips. Riverside has been the county seat since 1893, so the counter that signs off a footing here is the one this crew has stood at all along.
