Concrete Contractors in Pueblo, CO

We are concrete contractors in Pueblo, Colorado, working as Pueblo Concrete Contractor Pros. We tear out and replace driveways, pour patios and stamped concrete, build sidewalks and walkways, set slabs for garages and sheds, and repair concrete that has cracked, sunk or started to flake. Most of our work is for homeowners, on houses that range from pre-1940 homes in the older parts of the city to newer builds in Pueblo West. Each project begins with a free look at the site and a price on paper.

What Pueblo weather does to a slab

Pueblo has a semi-arid climate. Wikipedia's Pueblo climate data puts the average January high at 48.4 degrees and the average January low at 15.4 degrees. That gap is the problem. On a typical winter day, snowmelt or sprinkler water seeps into the surface during the afternoon and freezes inside the concrete overnight. The city only averages 28.3 inches of snow a year, but it gets about 78 percent of possible sunshine, so the thaw comes back almost every day. Concrete that was mixed without entrained air, finished while water sat on top, or left uncured goes through that cycle dozens of times a winter, and the top layer starts to scale and pop off.

Summer brings the opposite trouble. July highs average 93.4 degrees, the record is 109, and the air is dry, with about 12 inches of precipitation a year. Fresh concrete in those conditions loses water fast. If the surface dries before the slab below it, you get shrinkage cracks and a weak, dusty top. We pour early in the day in summer and keep new concrete damp or covered while it cures.

A city with a lot of old concrete

Pueblo grew as a steel town around the Colorado Fuel and Iron mill, which Wikipedia says was the largest employer in Colorado for nearly a century. Much of the housing dates from those years. Census survey figures summarized by Point2Homes put the median year built at 1965, with 21.2 percent of homes built in 1939 or earlier and another 16.7 percent in the 1950s. Only about 15 percent were built in 2000 or later.

That age shows up in the concrete. We see thin driveways poured long before anyone owned a pickup truck, walks lifted by tree roots, patios that have settled toward the house, and slabs patched so many times the patches have their own cracks. Old concrete was not always built with a compacted base, steel, or joints in the right places. When we replace it, we fix those things rather than pour new concrete over the same mistakes.

The ground under it

According to the Colorado Geological Survey, swelling clay soil is the biggest geologic hazard in the state, and broken, lifted driveways, walks, patios and garage floors are among the ways it shows up. Not every Pueblo lot sits on swelling clay, and we do not assume it does. At the estimate we dig into the base where we can, look at how the old slab has moved, and check where roof water and sprinklers send water. Water is usually the trigger. A slab that sheds water away from the house and has a firm, compacted base under it holds up far better on any soil.

Permits in Pueblo changed in 2026

Building permits for the City of Pueblo and the Town of Boone moved to the new Southern Colorado Building Department on January 1, 2026, replacing the old Pueblo Regional Building Department. Unincorporated areas, including Pueblo West and Colorado City, now go through the Pueblo County Building Division. Both departments post this change on their websites. If you have an old permit handout or a bookmark to the regional department, it may no longer apply. We look up which office covers your address and whether your project needs a permit before we schedule the pour.

What concrete costs

HomeGuide's national cost guides put a standard concrete driveway at $6 to $10 per square foot and a plain concrete patio at $4 to $12 per square foot, with stamped finishes higher. Removing old concrete, adding steel, regrading or thickening the slab all add to that. Each service page has a cost table with the source named. Those are published ranges, not our prices. Your written quote is the price, and it lists each item so you can compare it with other bids line by line.

Our approach

No price goes out before someone has stood on the site with a tape measure. We tell you what the old concrete is doing and why. We put the thickness, base, reinforcement and finish in writing. And we set the slope and joints so the new concrete has a better start than the old one did. Phone (719) 662-8708 or fill out the form, and we will find a time to stop by.

We work throughout the City of Pueblo, including older neighborhoods such as Bessemer, and in the Pueblo County communities around it: Pueblo West, Blende, Salt Creek, Vineland, Avondale, Boone, Colorado City, Rye and Beulah Valley. West along U.S. 50 we also take jobs in Fremont County, in Cañon City, Lincoln Park, Brookside, Florence, Penrose, Williamsburg, Rockvale and Coal Creek, and south on I-25 in Walsenburg. Tell us the address when you call, since a house inside Pueblo city limits and one in the county deal with different building offices.
