Onestop Fontana Concrete provides concrete floor installation, driveways, patios, and steps for Pomona homeowners. A large share of homes here were built between 1940 and 1970, and the original slabs on those properties are now 50 to 80 years old - aging alongside the clay-heavy soil that has been pushing against them since day one. We have served Pomona since 2024 and understand what concrete needs to perform in this part of the San Gabriel Valley.

Pomona has a large share of mid-century homes with original concrete garage floors and interior slabs that are decades past their useful life - cracking, flaking, and sitting on soil that was never properly compacted for a slab in the first place. A new floor starts with ground preparation: removing the old material, grading the soil, and laying a compacted base before a single pour. We build floors with the vapor barriers and reinforcement that Pomona's clay soils require for long-term performance. See full details on our concrete floor installation services.
Many of Pomona's older residential streets have driveways that date to the same era as the homes - 50 to 70 years of clay soil movement, tree root pressure from mature street trees, and hard-water mineral buildup have left many of them cracked and sunken. Replacing an aging driveway with a properly reinforced, correctly sloped slab addresses the drainage and structural problems at once. On Pomona's smaller lots, getting the drainage pitch right from the start is especially important to keep water from pooling near the foundation.
Pomona's climate offers year-round outdoor use, but many homes in the city's older neighborhoods have backyards with cracked, overgrown, or non-existent patios. A new concrete patio turns a neglected backyard into usable outdoor space - and on a modest 5,000 to 7,000 square foot lot, a well-designed slab can change how the whole property lives. We build patios with the slope and base compaction that Pomona's soils require so they stay level and drain properly through the wet season.
Front steps on Pomona's older homes are often crumbling at the edges or separating from the porch slab - a safety hazard and a visual problem that visitors notice immediately. Steps connected to aging foundations can also shift if the soil underneath them moves, creating uneven risers that present a trip hazard. We pour steps that are properly keyed into the adjoining slab and sized correctly for the rise and run, so they stay level and look right for the style of the home.
Pomona's Lincoln Park neighborhood and other historic streets have homes where plain gray concrete looks out of place next to Victorian and Craftsman architecture. Stamped and stained concrete can match the character of an older home without the cost of real stone or brick. In Pomona's intense summer sun, a UV-resistant sealer is essential to keep decorative finishes from fading - we use sealers rated for Southern California's UV exposure and reseal schedules that keep color consistent year to year.
Pomona's older residential streets have sidewalk panels that have been lifted by decades of tree root growth - the same mature trees that give the city its character create ongoing concrete displacement. Cracked or raised sidewalk sections are a liability issue for homeowners, and the city sometimes requires owners to repair sidewalk frontage adjacent to their property. We replace damaged panels and correct the grade so they drain properly and remain compliant with local standards.
Pomona sits at the eastern end of Los Angeles County, where the San Gabriel Valley meets the Inland Empire. The city covers about 23 square miles and has a population of over 150,000, making it one of the larger cities in the region. A significant portion of the housing stock was built between 1940 and 1970 - ranch-style and bungalow homes on modest lots, many still with their original driveways, walkways, and garage slabs. That original concrete flatwork is now 50 to 80 years old, and on most properties it has been working against unfavorable conditions since the day it was poured.
The soil under many Pomona neighborhoods contains clay, which swells when it absorbs winter rain and shrinks during the long, hot summer. That seasonal movement pushes against slabs from below, widening cracks that started small and eventually shifting sections apart. Pomona also gets genuine summer heat - temperatures regularly climb above 95 degrees Fahrenheit, with heat waves pushing past 105 - which accelerates the drying and cracking cycle. Santa Ana winds in fall add to the stress by drying the soil out rapidly after the wet season. For concrete to hold up in Pomona, it needs a properly compacted base, correct reinforcement, and a contractor who accounts for what is happening underground.
Our crew has been working in Pomona since 2024 and pulls permits through the City of Pomona Building and Safety Division for permitted flatwork projects. The permit process is a normal part of concrete jobs here - it brings a city inspector to verify the work, which protects homeowners at resale. We have worked on a range of property types across Pomona, from original mid-century ranch homes in the older interior neighborhoods to the multi-unit residential buildings near downtown.
Pomona's geography gives it character that you learn by working here. The 10, 60, and 71 freeways all run through or near the city, and most of the residential neighborhoods fall in the area bounded by Garey Avenue to the west and the 71 freeway to the east. The Lincoln Park historic district in central Pomona has some of the oldest homes in the Inland Valley - Victorian and Craftsman houses that require more careful work than a standard tract-home pour. Homes near the Fairplex and out toward Cal Poly Pomona on the east side tend to be mid-century single-family properties with larger lots and more concrete to work with.
We also serve neighboring Corona to the south and Chino to the west, so if you have a property spanning two areas or are looking for work done on both sides of the county line, we can cover it.
Reach out by phone or through our contact form and we will respond within one business day. We ask basic questions about the scope - what surface, what size, what condition - so we can give you a realistic sense of cost before arriving on site.
We visit the property, assess the existing surface and soil conditions, and give you a written quote that breaks down labor, materials, demolition, and permit fees separately. On older Pomona properties, we look closely at base conditions because the cost of proper preparation varies significantly from job to job - you should not get a firm price over the phone.
We handle any required permits through the City of Pomona. Before the pour, the crew removes the old material, grades the soil, and lays a compacted gravel base. You will need to clear the work area of vehicles and stored items before we arrive. This preparation phase is where the quality of the finished slab is really determined.
In Pomona's summer heat, the crew starts early to beat peak temperatures. After the pour, the concrete needs 24 to 48 hours before foot traffic and seven days before vehicles. We walk you through the finished work, point out the control joints, and explain the care schedule - including when the first resealing will be needed.

(909) 738-1647Pomona is a city of over 150,000 people at the far eastern end of Los Angeles County, right where the San Gabriel Valley meets the Inland Empire. It is bordered by Ontario to the east, Chino to the southeast, Diamond Bar to the south, and Claremont to the north. The city is one of the more affordable in the region, which has made it a destination for working families and first-time homebuyers. About half of households are owner-occupied, and those homeowners have a real stake in maintaining properties that have climbed significantly in value - median home values in Pomona have reached well above $500,000 in recent years. The Lincoln Park historic district in central Pomona is one of the most intact collections of Victorian and Craftsman homes in the Inland Valley, with some houses dating to the late 1800s. The Fairplex on the western edge of the city - home of the Los Angeles County Fair - is a landmark nearly every Pomona resident knows by name.
The housing stock in Pomona spans a wide range of ages and types. The oldest residential streets near downtown have bungalows and Victorians on narrow lots, while the neighborhoods toward Cal Poly Pomona on the east side lean toward mid-century ranch homes. Newer infill development has added multi-family buildings in some corridors. In terms of concrete, older neighborhoods tend to have the most need - original driveways, walkways, and garage floors that have been working against clay soil movement for 50 to 80 years. We cover all of Pomona, and also serve nearby Corona and Ontario for homeowners who need work on both sides of the county line.
