Serrato Builders is Pasadena's trusted C-8 licensed concrete contractor. We provide expert concrete driveways, stamped patios, structural foundations, pool decks, and concrete replacement throughout Pasadena. Licensed, bonded, insured — we pull permits through City of Pasadena and deliver craftsmanship worthy of the Crown City.
Pasadena — the Crown City — is one of Southern California's most architecturally significant communities. From the grand Craftsman homes of Bungalow Heaven to the mid-century gems of the San Rafael Hills, Pasadena properties demand concrete work that honors their character. Serrato Builders, as a C-8 licensed concrete contractor (License #1115625), has delivered exactly that for Pasadena homeowners across the 91101-91107 zip codes.
Concrete work in Pasadena comes with unique considerations. The City of Pasadena has its own Building & Safety department — separate from LA County or City — with specific requirements. Historic overlay zones in neighborhoods like Bungalow Heaven and the Historic Highlands may have additional design review. Hillside properties in the San Rafael area need engineered foundations. Our team navigates all of this expertly, ensuring your project is compliant, respectful of Pasadena's character, and built to last.
Pasadena homeowners have high standards — and rightly so. Here's why they choose us:
A Pasadena driveway often involves more than just concrete — it's the arrival experience for a historic or architecturally significant home. We pour driveways with finishes that complement your home's era: classic broom finish for mid-century homes, stamped concrete in period-appropriate patterns for Craftsman properties, and elegant exposed aggregate for modern estates. Every driveway is properly graded, reinforced, and finished with the care that Pasadena homes deserve.
Pasadena's garden culture is legendary — and concrete hardscape is the foundation of great outdoor spaces. We pour custom patios, garden paths, and terraces with finishes that complement your landscaping. Stamped concrete, colored concrete, and modern smooth finishes — all with integrated drainage that handles Pasadena's occasional heavy rains.
Pasadena has seen a surge in ADU construction, and every ADU starts with a solid foundation. We pour structural concrete foundations for accessory dwelling units, room additions, and new construction — all engineered for Pasadena's soil conditions and permitted through the City of Pasadena. Whether your lot is flat or on a slope, we deliver a foundation built to code and built to last.
