Block Walls in Costa Mesa Get Concrete Repairs

Why Choose B.C.I for all your Concrete Repairs

We are a confident and experienced company that any property manager, resident, or commercial property owner should consider for concrete repair services as well as any other service we offer at Bernardo. We were recently hired to reconstruct a block wall in Costa Mesa. The commercial property owner hired us for concrete repairs on several block walls. After fifty years of continuous hits and damage to the block walls it was time for them to be replaced. With over 20 years of experience on concrete repairs and concrete removal and replacement work we were nothing less than confident when it came to repairing the block walls for this customer. Our goal is to work hard and confidently, because it always shows in our work.

Working to Complete the Concrete Repairs

Since there had been a large amount of damage done to the block walls, the simplest way to complete all the concrete repairs was to knock it down completely. We established all new block walls in several areas from the ground up. Once we removed the existing block wall we dug the new footings and placed new rebar about 32 inches apart to help support the block wall. We had to construct a 6 ft high wall using tan precision block and cement. The rebar was placed vertically and horizontally within the walls and grouted for structural strength to help prevent any damage. A round cap was placed at the top of the walls to complete the project. All new walls were built to the city standards of Costa Mesa. The cleanup back filling and grading was all done by us at Bernardo to leave the project as least impacted to the customer.

Concrete Removal Orange County

Just this week B.C.I was hired as a concrete removal contractor to perform some work on a concrete curb and redo an asphalt flow line in Costa Mesa. Costa Mesa is a popular city near Newport Beach, Santa Ana, Irvine, and Fountain Valley. Part of the process for this job required us to remove the existing asphalt flow line and replace it with a concrete flow line. A concrete flow line lasts a lot longer than an asphalt flow line. We also replaced the existing concrete curb because it had been cracked and damaged over time. The entire concrete removal project only took B.C.I two days to complete. We not only specialize in concrete removal construction but many other services such as, sidewalk repairs, block wall repairs, and colored concrete. Look through our service page for a complete list of the services we offer.

Starting The Concrete Removal Project

The first day of this concrete removal job started out with saw cutting the area that had to be demoed and removed. Next we began to demo the existing asphalt flow line and concrete curb. After the concrete and asphalt was removed it was hauled away to the nearest dump where it can be recycled. Once the area was clear we set up and formed the perimeter for the concrete flow line with 2 by 4’s and steaks. Along with the formation of the flow line we placed the rebar; which supports the concrete flow line.

The Ending to the Concrete Removal Job

Now that the concrete removal part of the job was done we were able to construct the new concrete flow line and curb. Once the concrete arrived we immediately started to pour and form the concrete for the flow line. With a concrete flow line it is very important to get the elevation on both sides correct in order for it to actually be able to flow with whatever it may come in contact with. We also poured the concrete for the curb and we formed it by using certain tools to form the curb within the perimeter. Due to the hot weather we were currently having we were able to complete the job just 2 hours after the concrete was poured and returned three days later to complete the asphalt patch back. Since the concrete dried so fast it made our job a lot easier and we ended by removing all the forms barricades and cleaning up the area.
