Terms and Conditions

Agreeing to these terms

These terms cover your use of the H&J Gardena Concrete Contractors website and any estimate, scheduling or work you arrange with us through it. When you use the site, call us or send a request, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

A signed written contract for your job comes first. If that contract says something different from this page, the contract controls for that job.

What we do

H&J Gardena Concrete Contractors is a concrete contractor in Gardena, CA. We build driveways, patios, sidewalks, steps, slabs, foundations and other concrete work for homes and businesses in Gardena and the cities around it. The home page lists our services, and the about page tells you more about our crew and how we work.

What's on this site is general information about concrete work. It isn't a promise that a given service, finish or schedule fits your property. That depends on what we find when we come out and look at your site.

Estimates and pricing

We give free estimates at your property, and an estimate doesn't obligate you to book. Your price depends on the size of the job, the condition of the ground under the slab, removal of old concrete, access for our trucks and equipment, the finish you choose and any permit the work needs.

An estimate is based on what we can see and measure before work starts. Some conditions only show up once the old slab is out or the ground is open, such as soft soil, buried debris, roots or old pipes. If we find something that changes the scope or cost, we'll stop, tell you what we found and get your approval in writing before we do extra work.

Unless the estimate says otherwise, it stays good for 30 days, since material and hauling costs can change.

Scheduling, weather and cancellation

We'll set a start date with you once you accept the estimate. Concrete is weather work, so rain, extreme heat, supplier delays or a permit inspection can push a pour date back. We'll let you know as soon as we know, and we won't pour when conditions would hurt the slab.

If you need to reschedule or cancel, please call us at (424) 528-1322 as early as you can. If you cancel after materials are ordered or work has begun, you're responsible for materials bought for your job and work already done. Any cancellation rights you have under California law aren't limited by this page.

Payment

Payment terms, including any deposit and when the balance is due, are written in your contract before work starts. Any deposit we ask for follows California law for home improvement work.

If a payment is late, we may pause work until it's caught up. You're responsible for reasonable costs we have to pay to collect an unpaid balance, to the extent California law allows it.

Your part of the job

We'll ask you to show us property lines, sprinkler lines, buried utilities you know about and anything in the work area you want protected. Please keep people, pets and vehicles off fresh concrete until we tell you it's ready, because a slab gains strength while it cures, the waiting time after the pour, and early use can mark or crack it.

We'll go over curing and care with you when the job is done. Damage from using the concrete too early, or from not following the care steps we give you, isn't covered.

Warranty and what concrete does

Any warranty on your job is the one written in your contract. Apart from that written warranty, the website and our work are provided without other warranties, to the extent California law allows.

Concrete can get small hairline cracks even when it's built right. That's why we cut control joints, planned lines that give the slab a place to crack where you won't notice. Normal hairline cracking, slight color differences between pours and changes caused by ground movement, tree roots, standing water, de-icing products or loads heavier than the slab was built for aren't defects.

Limits on our liability

To the extent California law allows, H&J Gardena Concrete Contractors isn't liable for indirect or consequential losses, such as lost use of your property or lost income, connected to the website or our work. Our total liability on a job is limited to the amount you paid us for that job.

Nothing on this page limits liability that California law doesn't allow a contractor to limit, including liability for our own negligence that causes injury.

Using this website

The words, photos and design on this site belong to H&J Gardena Concrete Contractors. You're welcome to read and share them for your own use, but please don't copy them for commercial use without asking us.

Links to other websites are there for your convenience. We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for what's on them.

If there's a disagreement

If you're unhappy with something, call us first. Most problems get fixed faster when we come back out, look at it together and talk it through.

If we can't settle it that way, either of us can take the matter to the courts in Los Angeles County, California, unless your contract names a different way to resolve it.

Governing law

These terms and any work we do for you are governed by the laws of the State of California.

Changes to these terms

We may update this page from time to time. The version posted here is the one that applies when you use the site, and changes won't alter a contract you've already signed.

If you have a question about these terms, reach us through our contact page or call (424) 528-1322.
