Terms and Conditions

Effective January 1, 2026

Agreeing to these terms

These terms cover your use of this website and your dealings with One Call Lincoln Concrete, a concrete contractor in Lincoln, CA. By browsing the site, calling us, sending our contact form or booking work with us, you agree to them.

If you don't agree, please don't use the site or book work through it. A signed written contract for your job is separate from these terms, and where the two differ, the contract wins.

What we do

We build and repair concrete for homes and businesses, including driveways, patios, sidewalks, steps, garage floors, pool decks, retaining walls, footings, slab foundations and decorative or stamped work. You can see the full list of services on our home page and read more about how our crew works on our About page.

What you read on this site describes our work in general. It isn't a promise that a given service, finish or schedule fits your property. That's settled at the estimate and written into your contract.

Estimates and pricing

We give free quotes on site, and asking for one doesn't obligate you to anything. We need to see the job before we can price it, because the size of the area, the condition of the ground under the slab, access for trucks and equipment, tear-out of old concrete and the finish you pick all change the cost.

An estimate is our best figure based on what we can see before work starts. Some conditions only show up once the old slab is out or digging begins, like soft or wet soil, buried debris, roots or old footings. If we find something that changes the scope or the cost, we stop, explain it to you and get your approval in writing before we go ahead with the added work.

Unless your estimate says otherwise, a quote stays good for 30 days, since material prices can change. Prices on this website, if any appear, are general information and not an offer.

Scheduling, weather and cancellation

Start dates are set together and written into your contract. Concrete depends on the weather, so we may move a pour for rain, high heat, high wind or freezing temperatures, because pouring in the wrong conditions can leave a weak or flaky surface. We'll let you know as soon as we can and set the next workable date.

Delays can also come from permit or inspection timing, material supply, utility marking or conditions found on site. We aren't responsible for losses caused by delays outside our control, but we'll keep you informed and get back to work as soon as we can.

If you need to cancel or reschedule, please call us at (916) 884-6595 as early as possible. If you cancel after we've ordered materials, scheduled a concrete delivery or started work, you agree to pay for materials bought for your job, any delivery or cancellation charges from suppliers, and the work already done. Your contract may set out a different cancellation period, and any right to cancel that California law gives you still applies.

Payment

Your contract sets the amount, any deposit, any progress payments and when the balance is due. Any deposit we ask for will stay within the limits California law sets for home improvement contracts.

Final payment is due when the work in your contract is finished, even if the concrete is still curing, which is the waiting period while it hardens before you can drive or put weight on it. If a payment is late, we may pause work and charge late fees or collection costs as your contract allows. Like any California contractor, we may also have the right to file a mechanics lien on the property for unpaid work.

Your part of the job

You agree to give our crew safe access to the work area, keep pets, children and vehicles clear while we work, and tell us about anything buried that we should know about, such as sprinkler lines, drain pipes, septic parts, private utilities or old tanks. We call to have public utilities marked before digging, but private lines usually aren't marked, and we aren't responsible for damage to lines we weren't told about.

You're responsible for knowing where your property lines are and for any approval your homeowners association requires. If your job needs a permit, it has to be in place before work starts, and your contract will say who is getting it.

After the pour, you agree to follow the care instructions we give you, including how long to wait before walking or driving on the new concrete. Damage from using it too soon isn't covered.

Warranties and what concrete does over time

Any warranty on your job is the one written into your contract, and nothing on this website adds to it. Unless the contract says otherwise, and as far as the law allows, we don't give any other warranties, spoken or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.

Concrete shrinks as it dries and moves with the ground under it, so small hairline cracks are normal and aren't a defect. We cut control joints, which are grooves that give the slab a planned place to crack, to keep most cracking along those lines, but no contractor can promise a slab that never cracks.

Our warranty doesn't cover damage from things outside our control or our work, including settling or movement of soil we didn't prepare, tree roots, drainage changes made after the job, heavy loads beyond what the slab was built for, deicing salts or harsh chemicals, sealers or coatings put on by others, normal wear, small color differences between batches, or natural events like floods or earthquakes.

Limits on our liability

As far as the law allows, One Call Lincoln Concrete isn't liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, such as lost use of your driveway, lost income or the cost of other arrangements while work is underway or concrete is curing.

As far as the law allows, our total liability for any claim about a job is limited to the amount you paid us for that job. Nothing in these terms limits liability that California law doesn't allow us to limit, such as liability for our own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Using this website

The information on this site is general and is meant to help you understand concrete work. It isn't engineering, legal or permit advice for your property, and we may update it at any time without notice.

The words, photos and design on this site belong to One Call Lincoln Concrete or are used with permission. You may view and share pages for personal use, but you may not copy them for commercial use without our written permission. Links to other websites are offered for convenience, and we aren't responsible for their content.

Settling disagreements

If something about your job isn't right, please call us first. Most problems get sorted out once we come back out and look at them together. You agree to give us written notice of the problem and a fair chance to fix it before taking any other action.

If we can't settle it between us, either side may take the matter to small claims court if it qualifies, or to the state or federal courts serving Placer County, California, unless your contract sets a different process. You also keep any right you have to file a complaint with the state contractors licensing board.

Governing law

These terms and any work we do are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to rules that would apply another state's law.

If a court finds any part of these terms unenforceable, the rest still applies. If we don't enforce a term right away, that doesn't mean we've given up the right to enforce it later.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time, and the version posted on this page is the one in effect. Changes don't affect a contract you've already signed with us.

If you have questions about these terms, call us at (916) 884-6595 or reach us through our Contact page, and we'll respond within 1 business day.
