Concrete services in Bothell, WA
C&S Bothell Concrete Contractors is a concrete contractor in Bothell, WA, offering 16 services, from driveways, patios and steps to footings, foundations and parking lots. Most calls start with something you can see, like cracks, a slab that's sinking or uneven, or water pooling against the house. The price usually turns on the size and thickness of the slab, whether old concrete has to be broken out and hauled away, how much digging and base work the ground needs, and the finish you choose. The schedule turns on permits, site prep and curing, the wait while new concrete hardens before you use it. Your written estimate spells out what's included and what isn't.
Concrete driveway building
We build new concrete driveways from the dug-out base up, sized and sloped so water runs away from your garage and the slab carries your cars.
Concrete patio construction
Want a level spot for a table and chairs? We pour concrete patios on a packed base, sloped slightly so rain runs away from the house.
Stamped concrete services
Stamped concrete is patterned and colored while it's still wet, giving a patio, walk or driveway the look of stone or brick without laying separate pieces.
Concrete sidewalk building
A sidewalk that heaves or lifts at the edges usually sits on a poor base. We build walkways from the ground up, with joints cut where cracks should land.
Garage floor concrete
We pour garage floors with steel inside the slab and a slight fall toward the door, so water runs out instead of pooling under your car.
Decorative concrete
What counts as decorative concrete? Colored, textured or patterned finishes on patios, walks and entries, for owners who want something more than a plain gray slab.
Concrete retaining walls
We build concrete retaining walls that hold back a slope or terrace a yard, with a footing below and drainage behind so the soil doesn't push them over.
Concrete floor installation
We install concrete floors for basements, shops and commercial spaces, set level on a prepared base and ready for equipment, storage or flooring on top.
Concrete pool decks
Is the deck around your pool cracked or slick? We pour pool decks with a textured surface for bare feet and a slope that carries splash water off.
Concrete steps construction
Front steps that wobble or chip are a trip hazard. We form and pour concrete steps with even rises and a solid footing, so every step feels the same.
Slab foundation building
For builders and owners adding a garage, addition or outbuilding, we pour slab foundations on a compacted base with steel reinforcement laid out before the concrete arrives.
Foundation installation
We install the poured concrete foundation walls and footings a house or addition sits on, set to the plans and checked before each pour.
Concrete parking lot building
Small property owners and businesses call us for concrete parking lots and pads built thick enough for steady traffic, with drainage planned so water leaves the lot.
Concrete footings
What's a footing? It's the wide concrete base under a wall, post or deck that spreads the weight into firm ground, and we dig and pour each one.
Foundation raising
When a slab or foundation has settled and left floors or walks uneven, we lift it back toward level and look at what made the ground move.
Concrete cutting
We saw-cut concrete for new doorways, utility trenches, removals and clean edges, for homeowners and builders who need a neat opening in an existing slab or wall.
Reasons to hire us for concrete work
Most of our calls come from homeowners, along with small property owners and builders, and they want to know who they'll deal with, what they're paying for and whether the slab will last.
One person from estimate to finish
I come out to look at your job, write the estimate myself and lead our own crew on site through the last day, so you deal with one person who knows the details.
Estimates that list what's included
Every written estimate says plainly what's in and what's out, such as removing and hauling away old concrete, so you can compare bids fairly and know exactly what you're paying for.
Ground prep before the pour
We dig out and pack the subgrade, the soil the slab sits on, and check the drainage before pouring. If a budget needs trimming, I'd trim the finish before the base, because the base can't be redone later.
Permit paperwork handled with you
We look at the permit side when we come out, and if one's needed we can prepare and file it with the right city or county office. Please call (425) 384-1147 to ask about yours.

Site visit and written estimate
I come out, look at the ground, the drainage and any old concrete, and ask what the space needs to do. Then you get a free written estimate that spells out what's included and what isn't. There's no obligation, and I'm glad to walk through any line on it.
Permits, a date and the work
Once you're ready, we sort out any permit questions and set a start date that fits around them. Our own crew digs out, packs the base, sets the forms and steel, then pours and finishes, and I lead the work on site so the plan we agreed on is what gets built.
Walk the finished job
When the work is done, we clean up and walk the finished job with you. I'll tell you how long to stay off the new concrete while it cures, show you where the joints were cut and answer any questions before we leave.

About C&S Bothell Concrete Contractors
C&S Bothell Concrete Contractors is a licensed and insured concrete contractor in Bothell, WA.

Bothell, the city we work from
Bothell is a growing city that spans King and Snohomish counties, with Kenmore, Woodinville and Kirkland right next door. A lot of life here runs along the Sammamish River, from the Park at Bothell Landing, where people tour the restored historic buildings and launch hand-carried boats, to the paved trail that heads east toward Marymoor Park in Redmond. West of I-405, North Creek Forest keeps a wooded hillside on Maywood Hill with informal trails and wetlands, and between the river flats and the hills, the yards we work in range from flat lots to steep ones.
Permits for work inside the city go through the City of Bothell's Permit Center, which handles everything from home repairs to new commercial buildouts. Applications are accepted online only, through MyBuildingPermit.com, and the counter takes walk-ins Monday to Thursday from 8 AM to noon and 1 to 4 PM, and Fridays from 8 AM to noon. We're based here, and we bring the same careful ground prep to every job in the cities around Bothell.

Questions about concrete work in Bothell
What affects the price of a concrete driveway or patio in Bothell?
Size and thickness set most of the price, followed by the ground prep, removing any old concrete and the finish you pick. A plain broom finish costs less than stamped or colored concrete, and a site the truck can't reach adds labor. Your written estimate lists each of these for your job.
Why are concrete bids so different from one contractor to the next?
Bids usually differ because they don't cover the same work, especially the base prep, the steel and removing the old slab. A low number often means the ground gets raked level instead of dug out and packed, and that slab tends to settle with the dirt. Our estimates spell out what's in and what's out so you can compare.
How long until I can drive on a new concrete driveway?
You can usually walk on new concrete well before you can drive on it, because the slab keeps gaining strength after it looks hard. We'll tell you the wait for your slab and plan the date with you, so you know ahead how long you'll be without the driveway.
Are you a licensed and insured concrete contractor?
Yes, C&S Bothell Concrete Contractors is licensed and insured. Our own crew does the work, and I lead it on site rather than handing your job to someone you've never met.
Do you remove the old concrete before pouring a new slab?
Yes, when the job calls for it, we break out the old concrete and haul it away before we dig out and pack the new base. Your estimate says plainly whether removal is included, so there's no surprise on the day.
Do you guarantee your concrete work?
Yes, our work comes with satisfaction guaranteed. Before we start, I go over the base, the joints and the drainage plan with you, so you know what you're getting and why each step is there.
Will my new concrete slab crack like the old one?
Concrete can crack as it shrinks and the ground shifts, but a well-built slab usually cracks where you planned instead of across the middle. We cut control joints, shallow grooves that give cracks a straight line to follow, and pack the base so the slab doesn't settle. Rebar, the steel bars inside the slab, helps hold any crack tight.
Do I need a permit for concrete work in Bothell?
It depends on the job, so it's worth checking with the City of Bothell's Permit Center before anything is poured. The city's exempt list doesn't name driveways or patios, though it does exempt retaining walls up to four feet from footing bottom to wall top unless they hold back extra weight, like a driveway or slope above them. We look at the permit side when we come out for the estimate.
