Before hiring any concrete contractor in California, check with your local building department to determine whether your project requires a permit. According to the California Building Standards Code, most construction work—including concrete work on driveways, slabs, foundations, and similar structures—requires a building permit. Code requirements vary by city and county, so contact the San Francisco Building Department to learn what applies to your project.

Concrete contractors in California must hold a valid state license. The license type you need depends on the work: a C-8 (Concrete Contractor) license covers concrete slabs, driveways, foundations, and similar work. You can verify a contractor's license and check for complaints using the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB) online database. Search by license number or business name at cslb.ca.gov. Before signing a contract, ask the contractor for their license number and verify it yourself.

When requesting estimates and contracts, ask the contractor whether they will handle permit applications and any required inspections. Clarify who is responsible for grading and site preparation, how long curing will take before the concrete is ready for use, and what finish options are available for your project.
