Concrete Contractors in Beaverton, OR

Beaverton sits just north of Tigard, and homeowners there call concrete contractors in Beaverton for the same core reasons we see at home: worn-out driveways, patios that have tipped, walks lifted by trees and steps that feel unsafe. What changes is the ground. Wikipedia puts the city's elevation anywhere from about 132 feet to about 698 feet, so a flat lot near the old downtown and a hillside lot near Sexton Mountain call for different plans.

Fifty years of fast growth

Beaverton incorporated in 1893, but most of its homes are much newer. The city had 18,577 residents in 1970, 53,310 in 1990, 79,277 in 2000 and 97,494 in 2020. The 2020 census counted 42,288 housing units. That means a large share of Beaverton's driveways and patios were poured between the 1970s and the early 2000s and are now reaching the age when panels settle, aprons crack and surfaces wear thin.

Beaverton recognizes 13 neighborhoods, from Central Beaverton, Vose and Greenway to Five Oaks, Triple Creek, Highland and Sexton Mountain. Older blocks near downtown, where the Beaverton Downtown Historic District sits, often have narrow drives and small front walks. Neighborhoods built in the 1980s and 1990s tend to have two- and three-car driveways, larger back patios and HOA rules about finishes.

Grading on Beaverton's slopes

On the higher ground toward Sexton Mountain and the south side, driveway slope is the main design question. Too steep and cars scrape or tires slip in the rain. Too flat at the garage and water runs inside. We set grade with that in mind, add a broom finish for traction, and lay out joints so the slab can move without cracking across the middle of a panel.

On flatter lots, the problem is the opposite: water has nowhere to go. Beaverton's climate table lists 39.05 inches of precipitation across 151 days a year with measurable rain, against just 1.9 inches of snow. We pitch patios away from the house and make sure downspouts empty past the slab edge, not under it.

Sidewalks in front of Beaverton homes

Beaverton has run a residential sidewalk repair grant. In a 2021 discussion among Oregon city managers, a city representative described it as restricted to residential sidewalks and paying half of the repair cost up to a cap. Program terms change, so if your problem is a public walk, we suggest checking the current terms with the city before you schedule. We can quote the repair and pull any required right-of-way permit once you know where you stand.

Growth still under way

In 2018 the Metro Council voted to expand the urban growth boundary to include the Cooper Mountain urban reserve on Beaverton's southwest side. New streets there bring new driveways and patios, while older neighborhoods closer in bring tear-outs and replacements. We handle both.
