Commercial Concrete in Los Angeles



Los Angeles is a major city that brings together many industries and people, and with that comes a wide range of ways people describe it. One characterization that may offer an overarching theme is it’s that of a place with an ever-changing cityscape. Los Angeles is a city as fluid and flexible as the materials that created the city. Beneath the evergreen transformation of the city lies concrete, an important component of each project due to its strength, durability, and versatility. In order to meet the constant demand for reshaping the city is the need for a skilled commercial concrete contractor in Los Angeles.

Notable New Projects

Like many major metropolitan areas across the US, Los Angeles is growing. New construction projects dot the city, such as ongoing public transportation projects digging deep below the streets, uncovering fossils along the way, as well as many large multi-use buildings adding to the amount of residential units and commercial square footage. Concrete is a common element in these projects, and The Conco Companies, a commercial concrete contractor, has provided expert concrete services to several projects. Conco has partnered with notable architects and developers across the city to construct new buildings and renovate landmarks in Los Angeles. One of these projects, the Cumulus Tower, combines the LA construction trends of public transportation development and multi-use buildings. One of the first high-rise buildings in its part of the city, the Cumulus Tower project will bring 1,210 apartments and 100,000 sq. ft. of commercial space, while promoting public transit by creating housing and retail stores next to the new metro rail stations. For this project, Conco poured over 8,000 cubic yards of concrete to complete 40,000 square feet of finished slab work.

Exciting Renovations

In addition to commercial concrete contracting services, Conco also provides concrete pumping services for projects such as the historic LA Memorial Coliseum renovation. This project presented several unique challenges as this $270 million upgrade included an eight-story modern structure with press boxes and luxury suites that needed be constructed so as not to interfere with the 2018 and 2019 football seasons of both the USC Trojans and LA Rams. For this project, Conco provided not only concrete pumping services, but also formwork, finishing, shotcrete, and construction trucking.
