Concrete Contractors in Green Valley, AZ

Concrete contractors in Green Valley work for a community unlike any other part of the Tucson area. Wikipedia calls it an unincorporated retirement community made up of 59 homeowner associations. At the 2020 census it had 22,616 residents, a median age of 73.1, and 79.9 percent of residents were 65 or older. That shapes the jobs we do here. The most common request is not a fancy patio. It is a walk, step or driveway that has shifted enough to become a tripping hazard, and an owner who wants it level, with a surface that grips.

Growth from the 1970s on

Green Valley had 5,717 residents in 1980, 13,231 in 1990, 17,283 in 2000 and 21,391 in 2010. That means much of the concrete is 30 to 45 years old. At that age we see settled front walks, cracked garage aprons, patio slabs that tilt toward the house, and steps that have pulled away from the entry. Many of these can be fixed by replacing a section or two rather than the whole slab, and we will tell you plainly when that is the case.

Accessibility-minded work

For a lot of Green Valley households, concrete is about getting around safely. We pour walks with gentle slopes, wide enough for a walker or wheelchair, and with a light broom finish instead of a slick troweled surface. We can replace a stepped entry with a sloped walk where the grade allows, add a landing outside the door, or widen the path from the driveway to the porch. Exact layouts depend on your lot and your HOA, so we measure and sketch it on the visit.

HOAs and county services

With 59 associations, rules on driveway color, patio size and exterior changes vary from street to street. Bring your HOA's architectural guidelines and we will design within them. Because Green Valley is unincorporated, most government services come from Pima County. In unincorporated Pima County, structures and improvements within a regulatory floodplain, including areas along washes and areas with sheet flooding, need a Floodplain Use Permit before construction starts. If your lot backs up to a wash, we check that before quoting.

Desert setting

Green Valley sits at about 2,979 feet on the west side of the Santa Cruz River, roughly 20 miles south of Tucson, with the Santa Rita Mountains to the east and large copper mines nearby. Its climate is borderline hot semi-arid and hot desert, with a monsoon from July through September. Summer pours start early in the morning, and every slab is pitched to shed storm water away from the house.
