Concrete Contractor serving Whittier, CA

Historic Homes and Modern Concrete Solutions

Whittier has beautiful historic homes that deserve concrete work matching their character and quality. Original concrete from the 1920s through 1950s often needs replacement after decades of service. The challenge is creating new work that looks appropriate for the home rather than jarringly modern. We use traditional finishes and scoring patterns when restoring driveways and walkways on older properties. Stamped concrete can replicate vintage brick or stone patterns that complement period architecture perfectly. Front porches and entry steps on historic homes require careful attention to proportions and details. Many older properties have settled unevenly over the years, creating drainage problems that new concrete work must address. Foundation repairs need to tie into existing structure without compromising the integrity of vintage construction. Some historic district properties have specific guidelines about exterior modifications, and we work within those requirements. Matching existing concrete color and texture becomes important when doing additions or repairs rather than full replacement. Modern concrete technology actually gives us better options for durability while maintaining traditional appearances. We can add strength and longevity that original concrete never had while keeping the look appropriate. Properties listed on historic registers sometimes qualify for special restoration considerations. Our team respects the craftsmanship of the past while bringing modern expertise to every project. Whittier homeowners who love their historic properties appreciate contractors who understand both old and new approaches.
