Concrete flatwork for homes and businesses around Dixon

Trinity Paving and Concrete is a concrete contractor for homes and businesses in Dixon and the towns around it. We pour concrete flatwork: walkways, sidewalks, entry landings, curbs and gutters. We also pour slabs for sheds and shops, and pads for equipment and dumpsters. When old flatwork breaks up or heaves, we tear it out and replace it.

We look at the job and put the quote in writing before any work starts. On a replacement, the old concrete comes out first. Then a compacted base goes in, and forms are set so water runs off the finished slab. The same groundwork sits under our concrete driveways and stamped concrete patios.

  • Walkways and sidewalks for homes and businesses
  • Entry landings at front and back doors
  • Curbs, gutters and catch basin surrounds

Concrete Flatwork on the Clay Soils Around Dixon

Most of Dixon sits on Yolo silty clay loam and loam, well-drained valley soils. There is expansive clay in places, and it cracks when it dries and swells when it gets wet. Ground that moves like that can lift a walkway or crack a slab.

So the work under the concrete matters more than the finish on top. Soft spots and loose topsoil come out first, and the subgrade is graded and compacted. Class 2 aggregate base goes on next, compacted to a firm, even bed. The base is dampened just before the pour.

Dixon's sidewalk spec calls for a fine broom finish across the walk and edges rounded with an edging trowel. We finish flatwork the same way. Most of the year's rain falls from November to March. The broom texture gives shoes some grip on wet concrete.

Who Repairs the Sidewalk in Front of Your Property?

California's Streets and Highways Code, section 5610, puts sidewalk upkeep on the owner of the lot it fronts. Dixon's Sidewalk Repair Policy cites that law. The policy also has a reimbursement program that can pay back part of an owner's repair cost. Ask the city about it before work starts.

Sacramento's city code says the owner repairs the sidewalk even when a tree root did the damage. Sacramento keeps up the curbs, gutters and curb ramps itself. In April 2026, the Davis City Council passed the first reading of a similar ordinance.

Concrete work in the public right-of-way needs a city permit. In Dixon, the Engineering Department issues an encroachment permit for sidewalk, curb and gutter repair. The city's construction specs hold the pour until the City Engineer approves the forms and subgrade. Vallejo issues a sidewalk permit, and its inspector checks the work before the concrete goes in.

ADA Ramps and Concrete for Business Lots

Business and HOA lots need concrete where the asphalt ends. We pour curbs and gutters, catch basin surrounds and dumpster pads. Gutters and basin surrounds carry water to the drains, so we set their grades with the lot's grading and drainage.

ADA pathways and curb ramps have slope limits in the federal ADA Standards. A walking surface steeper than 1 in 20 counts as a ramp. A ramp can be no steeper than 1 in 12, with a level landing at the top and bottom. Side to side, the slope stays at 1 in 48 or less.

A curb ramp keeps the same 1 in 12 limit and needs a landing at the top. Where it meets the street, the gutter slopes no more than 1 in 20. California's building code adds its own access rules. We form each ramp to the slopes on the plan or the city's standard drawing.

FAQ

Concrete Flatwork Questions, Answered

Common questions about concrete flatwork around Dixon and the towns of Solano, Yolo and Sacramento counties. If yours is not here, call or text and ask.

Call (707) 396-7730

Can you replace just the broken sections of a sidewalk?
Yes. The broken panels come out to the nearest joint or a clean saw cut. We fix and compact the base under them, then pour new concrete to match the grade on each side. In the public right-of-way, the city's permit and its standards apply.
Do I need a building permit for a walkway or slab on my own land?
Often not. The state building code exempts at-grade sidewalks and driveways on private land from a building permit. A walk on an accessible route needs one, and so may a shed or shop on a new slab. Your city or county building office answers that for your lot, and we point you there.
Is concrete or asphalt better for a walkway, a pad or a parking area?
Concrete holds a crisp edge and a set slope, so it suits walks, curbs, ramps and pads. Hot mix asphalt suits long drives and parking lots, and it can take an overlay later. Many business lots pair asphalt paving with concrete curbs and ramps. We do both, so one written quote can cover the whole site.
Do you pour slabs for sheds, shops and equipment?
Yes. We pour slabs and pads for sheds, shops and equipment on a compacted base. A pad for heavy equipment gets a thicker slab, and the joint spacing changes with it. House foundations and paver stones belong to other trades.
Why does concrete crack, and what do control joints do?
Concrete shrinks as it dries, and clay under it moves between the wet and dry seasons. Control joints give those cracks a straight, planned line. The ready-mixed concrete industry's guidance spaces joints no more than 10 feet apart in a 4 to 5 inch slab. Each joint is cut at least a quarter of the way through.
How much does concrete flatwork cost?
Size and thickness drive the price, along with any tear-out of old concrete. Subgrade work on clay matters too, and so does access to the site. The quote comes to you in writing after we see the job. Call or text (707) 396-7730 to set up a time.
