Manteca has grown fast. It went from 67,096 people in 2010 to 83,498 at the 2020 census. About 44 percent of its homes were built in 2000 or later, and more than one in four before 1980. Concrete work here runs two ways, new pours in the subdivisions and tear outs on the older streets.
Concrete Solutions is based in Modesto. We drive out to Manteca up Highway 99, and the town sits well inside our range. We pour a new driveway or a backyard patio, plus slabs, sidewalks, footings and commercial flatwork. Call or text (209) 606-9904 for a free estimate on site.

Roughly 5 percent of Manteca homes went up in 2020 or later, and 17 percent between 2010 and 2019. Around Union Ranch, Northgate and the tracts off Lathrop Road, the builder pours the basics. That means a house slab, a short driveway and a small back patio. The rest of the yard is left as dirt.
The calls from these streets are about adding on. People want the patio pushed back to the fence or a side yard walkway poured. Others need a pad for an RV or a boat, or a wider driveway for a third car. We handle the forming, base prep, rebar and pour.
Back yards that start as bare dirt are also where a stamped and colored finish gets asked for most. A stamped patio costs more than a broom finish, and it takes longer to lay out and cure. We look at the yard with you and talk through both before you decide.
About 27 percent of Manteca housing was built before 1980, and the median home here dates to 1995. The blocks near downtown, Library Park and Moffat Boulevard hold most of the older stock. Driveways poured in the 1950s through the 1970s were often thin, with little or no rebar. Fifty years of vehicle weight, tree roots and summer heat finish them off.
Patching a driveway that has broken into plates does not hold. We tear out the old concrete, rebuild the base and set rebar. Then we pour a new slab at a thickness that suits the vehicles on it. Where a front walk has lifted, we replace the panels.
If the slab is sound and only looks bad, replacement is not the answer. A micro topping or a colored overlay gives solid concrete a new surface. We tell you which one the concrete calls for when we come out.
The USDA named a soil series after this town. Manteca soils are fine sandy loams over a cemented hardpan 20 to 40 inches down. Parts of the developed city sit on Delhi sand, which drains fast but needs real compaction. On the southwest side there is Galt clay, which cracks open in summer and holds water in winter.
Sand and loam mean we spend real time on base prep. We grade and compact the base, then check the fall before any concrete shows up. Slope matters as much as thickness. Water has to run away from the house and out toward the street.
Weather sets the schedule here. Manteca gets about 11 to 12 inches of rain a year, almost all of it in winter. Summer pours start early, and we keep moisture on the surface and use a curing compound. Winter brings dense tule fog and cold nights, so we work around the wet.
Ask the city before you assume a permit. In Manteca, building permits and inspections run through the Building Safety Division, part of Development Services. Work in the public right of way needs an encroachment permit from the city's engineering side instead. That covers sidewalk, curb, gutter and driveway approach work, and we pour to what the city approves.
New construction brings structural concrete, and that does get permitted and inspected. We form and pour footings and stem walls to the plans your engineer or builder provides. California's ADU rules have made back yard units common across the state. In Manteca that usually starts with a slab or pad sized for the build.
Manteca's industrial side runs along Airport Way, Industrial Park Drive and the Highway 99 and 120 corridors. Warehouses and distribution buildings there need equipment pads, dumpster pads, loading areas, curb and gutter and parking lot concrete. Over the past year we did industrial work in the Modesto area. That included a winery, a bottling plant and a metal fabrication shop.
