Concrete Contractor services in Castro Valley
Castro Valley is not a city. It is an unincorporated community, so Alameda County, not a city hall, issues its permits and looks after its roads. The center of the valley is fairly level and filled with ranch-style homes from the 1950s and 1960s. Around the edges the land folds into canyons and ridges: Crow Canyon, Cull Canyon, Palomares Hills and Five Canyons, where newer homes sit on cut and filled pads. Fill that was placed decades ago can keep settling, and that shows up as a patio that has pulled away from the house or a driveway with one low panel. Lots are larger than in the cities by the bay, so we see more requests for long driveways, RV pads, shop slabs and sport courts. Summer afternoons run warmer here than on the Oakland waterfront, so we start pours early and begin curing right away.

Permits and local rules
Alameda County cites Streets and Highways Code section 5610, which makes each owner responsible for the sidewalk next to the property. The County runs a sidewalk repair program that reimburses 50 percent of the repair cost, up to $750 per property. Confirm the current terms with the Public Works Agency before you rely on them.
