An owner-run concrete crew based in Mason City, Iowa
Mason City Concrete is my business. I started it in 2020 after learning the trade on someone else's crew. We're best known for flatwork, the driveways, walks, patios and floors that lie on the ground, done right underneath. We're fully licensed and insured.
Every job starts with me at the site, looking at the ground and asking how you'll use it. The work is done by me and our own crew. We're based in Mason City and work across the cities around it.
I'd rather lose a bid than sell you work you don't need, and I'd rather you knew what you're paying for before we start. There's more about us and how we work if you want it before you call.

Concrete in Mason City - done right underneath
At Mason City Concrete every job starts with the ground. Price follows the size, thickness and base work the spot needs, timing follows permits and pour weather, and your written estimate lists what's included and what isn't.
- Learn more about Concrete driveway building
Concrete driveway building
Driveway cracked, sinking or pooling water? We tear it out, dig to firm ground, pack a new base and pour a slab that drains away from your house.
- Learn more about Concrete patio construction
Concrete patio construction
We build concrete patios that give your yard a flat, dry spot for a table and grill, on a packed base and sloped so rain runs off.
- Learn more about Stamped concrete services
Stamped concrete services
Stamped concrete is a regular pour pressed with patterned mats while it's still soft, so a patio or walk looks like stone or brick without loose pieces.

Concrete sidewalk building
Got a sidewalk notice from the city? We replace heaved or broken walks with new concrete, cut with control joints so cracks follow a groove we chose.
- Learn more about Garage floor concrete
Garage floor concrete
When a garage floor has had enough, we break out the slab, rebuild the base and pour a new floor sloped toward the door so snowmelt runs out.
- Learn more about Decorative concrete
Decorative concrete
Decorative concrete covers colored, stained and textured finishes for patios, walks and entries, for homeowners who want concrete that suits the house instead of plain gray.
- Learn more about Concrete retaining walls
Concrete retaining walls
We pour concrete retaining walls for sloped yards that need the soil held back, with footings below and drainage behind so water doesn't push the wall over.
- Learn more about Concrete floor installation
Concrete floor installation
Need a basement, shop or office floor? We pour interior slabs over a packed base, with steel rebar inside to hold cracks tight where loads call for it.
- Learn more about Concrete pool decks
Concrete pool decks
A pool deck is the slab around an in-ground pool, finished with enough texture that wet feet keep their grip and sloped so splash water drains away.
- Learn more about Concrete steps construction
Concrete steps construction
We build poured concrete steps for front doors and back entries, every step the same height, with a broom finish, a brushed texture that keeps shoes from slipping.
- Learn more about Slab foundation building
Slab foundation building
Building a garage, addition or shed? We pour slab foundations that the building sits on, starting with the subgrade, the soil under the slab, dug and packed firm.
- Learn more about Foundation installation
Foundation installation
For new homes and additions, we form and pour foundation walls and footings to the plans, so the house above has a straight, level start.
- Learn more about Concrete parking lot building
Concrete parking lot building
Parking lots take heavier loads than a driveway, so we pour them thicker, with steel where trucks and plows run, for businesses, churches and apartment buildings.
- Learn more about Concrete footings
Concrete footings
Footings are the wide concrete pads that carry a wall, deck or post, and we set them below the frost line because frozen ground above it can heave them.
- Learn more about Foundation raising
Foundation raising
Is a slab or foundation settling? Foundation raising lifts the sunken section back toward level from below, so you can often fix the low spot without tearing it out.
- Learn more about Concrete cutting
Concrete cutting
We saw-cut concrete for new doorways, window wells, plumbing trenches and clean edges where an old slab meets new work, with water on the blade to keep dust down.

Questions we hear about concrete
How much does a new concrete driveway cost in Mason City?
It depends on the size, the thickness and how much digging and base work your spot needs, so I price each driveway after seeing it. Tearing out an old slab, tight access for the truck and a decorative finish all add to it. The on-site quote is free.
Why do concrete quotes from different contractors vary so much?
Usually because they aren't pricing the same job underneath. One quote digs out and packs a new base, another rakes the old dirt level and pours on top, and that hidden base is the first thing people cut to save money. I'd spend it there every time, because a slab on loose dirt settles with the dirt, and our estimate lists what's included so you can compare line by line.
How long before I can drive on a new concrete driveway?
Not until it has cured, the slow hardening concrete keeps doing for days after the pour, and I'll give you the dates for your slab when we pour it. Walking comes first and cars later, because weight on a green slab is how edges break. Cold weather slows curing, so fall pours can take longer.
Does a concrete contractor need to register with the state of Iowa?
Yes, Iowa requires contractors who earn at least $2,000 a year from construction to register with the state's Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing. The state reads construction broadly, and a homeowner working only on their own property doesn't have to register. We're fully licensed and insured.
What happens before the concrete gets poured on my job?
We dig out to firm ground, pack the base and set forms that slope water away from your house. Where the slab will carry heavy loads, we add rebar, steel bars that hold the slab together if it cracks. Then we plan the pour around the weather, because concrete poured in hot midday sun can set too fast and leave a weak, dusty top.
Do you guarantee your concrete work?
Every job is backed by our satisfaction guarantee. Before that matters, I put the time into the base and the mix, because that's what decides how a slab holds up years from now, and we walk the finished job with you before we leave.
Will my new concrete driveway crack like the old one?
Concrete can still crack, but on a well-built slab the cracks usually stay in the control joints we cut, not across the middle. Old driveways around here often failed because they sat on unpacked dirt or held water that froze every winter, so we pack the base and slope the slab to shed water.
Do I need a permit for concrete work in Mason City?
It depends on the job, and that's the city's call, so we check with them on each one instead of guessing. Permit applications in Mason City go through the city's Development Services Department. We handle the paperwork for our part and tell you up front which city or county office your job goes through.
