Concrete Contractor in Fowler, CA

Fowler began as Fowler's Switch, named for rancher and 1870s state senator Thomas Fowler. Its post office opened in 1882 and the city incorporated in 1908. Today it's a city of 6,700 (2020 census) covering about 2.5 square miles, surrounded by vineyards and farmland at an elevation of about 308 feet.

In a town this size, most of our calls are practical:

• A driveway that's cracked, sunk, or too narrow for today's trucks
• A front walk or steps that have become a trip hazard
• A backyard patio for shade and summer evenings
• A concrete pad for a shed, carport, or work trailer

For a small house lot, we'll often recommend a driveway extension or a few replaced sections instead of a full tear-out. See concrete driveways for how we build a drive that lasts in Valley heat.

Farm country around Fowler is flat, and that's both good and bad for concrete. Flat lots are easy to form, but water doesn't run off on its own, so every slab gets a slight slope built in. Much of the ground in the Fresno area has a cemented hardpan not far below the surface, so we check before planning anything deep, like footings.

We pour in the early morning from late spring through early fall, keep the subgrade damp, and cure the concrete properly. Rushing a pour in triple-digit heat leads to surface cracking and a weak top layer.

Fowler has its own city government, so work on sidewalks or driveway approaches goes through the City of Fowler. We confirm the requirements for your address before scheduling.
