Concrete Contracts, Estimate Forms & Pricing Calculator

Most concrete disputes start with something nobody wrote down: a hairline crack the customer didn't expect, a driveway apron poured without the city's permit, an old driveway cracked by the ready-mix truck, soft soil found after tear-out with no agreed price, or a payment asked for before the work was done. This kit gives a flatwork contractor the paperwork and the pricing to write down the slab plan, the permit and right of way, the 811 ticket and private lines, the truck route and what normal cracking looks like, tie payments to finished steps, and finish every job with a walkthrough and a signed completion certificate.

You get 8 contract templates: a concrete work agreement with a slab plan and material schedule and a schedule of progress payments, a proposal and estimate with broom, stamped and stamped-and-sealed options on the same job, a permit, property line and right-of-way agreement, a one-page customer terms sheet, a site conditions and underground lines waiver for named items only, a cracking and finish disclosure that quotes published industry guidance on joints and cracks, a demolition, haul-away and truck access authorization, and a workmanship warranty with a completion certificate. 8 job forms cover the site visit and measurement sheet, the property condition record, the 811 locate and private lines record, change orders, a ready-mix order and pour day plan, a pre-pour checklist, the final walkthrough and punch list, and concern reports. 6 customer care sheets cover what to expect, before pour day, pour day and the first weeks, caring for new concrete, stamped and sealed concrete, and cracks, warranty and after we finish.

The Pricing Calculator (Excel and Google Sheets, no macros) prices patios, driveways, sidewalks and shed slabs in 4 sizes from your own costs: person-hours, labor cost, tools, drive and overhead for your work, ready-mix by the cubic yard with your supplier's price, ordering step and short-load fee, other materials per square foot and the permit fee. It adds tear-out, stamped finish, sealer, steps, soft spots and a pump, slope and access surcharges, a deposit with an optional cap, progress payments by step, fees and change orders, a yardage take-off (yards, base, form boards, bars, joint feet), and logs jobs, balances, approvals and concerns. A 2-page editable price list uses the same numbers. The 51-page guide explains the site visit, permits and right of way, 811 and private lines, tear-out and truck access, cement burns and silica dust, licensing examples, each clause, cracks, state contract notices and the 3-day cancellation rule, pricing and running the job, with worked examples and sources checked in November 2026. The contracts are samples to have reviewed for your state; they are not attorney-drafted, not legal or engineering advice and not a California-compliant contract. Thickness, base, reinforcement and joints come from your plan and local code, the kit is not safety training, and the example prices are not advice on what to charge.
