Concrete footings we build for Anaheim homes
Pad footings for posts
A single block of concrete under one post or column, used for patio covers, decks and porch supports where the weight comes down at separate points.
Strip footings under walls
A continuous run of concrete under a wall or a room addition, spreading the load along its whole length so the wall bears evenly from end to end.
What do concrete footings do, and what goes into building them in Anaheim?
Concrete footings are the base under a post, wall or addition that carries its weight down into the soil, and in Anaheim, CA we dig and pour them to your approved plans so the structure above has firm support.
Most footing calls start with a project the homeowner already has in mind, such as a patio cover, a room addition or a new wall, and plans that show footings going under it. The price moves with how many footings the plans call for and how large they are, how easily we can reach the spot, and whether old concrete has to come out first. The schedule turns mostly on the paperwork, because the plans have to be drawn and approved and the city has to sign off along the way before any concrete goes in. When I come out, I measure and give you an estimate for your own job, so you aren't planning around a guess.
Concrete footings from the plans to the pour
I start by reading your plans and looking at what's already on the ground, and if part of the house has settled, we may talk through foundation raising before new footings go in.
Reading the approved plans
We build each footing to the approved plans, so type, size and depth come from your designer, not a guess on site.
Opening old concrete
If a slab or patio sits where a footing goes, we use concrete cutting to open only that spot and keep the rest whole.
Clean, dry holes
We dig each hole and keep it clean and dry, because concrete over loose dirt or standing water won't carry the load properly.
Inspection, then the pour
The holes are ready for the inspector before any concrete arrives, and we pour only after they pass, then clean up your yard.
Why homeowners choose Advanced Anaheim Concrete Company
I learned concrete pouring foundations on new construction, and in 2017 I started this business to work on homes people already live in. That means planning footings around your family, your yard and the concrete already there, and caring as much about what sits underground as what shows.
The owner prices your footings
I come out myself to look at the job and give the estimate, so you hear the plan from the person responsible for it and can ask anything before you decide.
Licensed and fully insured
California's licensing board counts forming, pouring and finishing concrete as a concrete contractor's work, and that's what a footing job is made of. We're licensed and fully insured.
Care for your lawn and walls
We protect the lawn, keep dirt off your walls and keep the street tidy for the neighbors, because the rest of your property matters as much as the new concrete.
What happens when you call about footings in Anaheim?

Questions about footings in Anaheim
How much do concrete footings cost in Anaheim?
Across the US, installed residential strip footings usually run about $5 to $19 per linear foot, covering the concrete, labor, digging and forms, according to 2026 national cost data. That's the market's range, not our price, so I'll price your own job at the estimate once I've seen the plans and the yard.
Who draws the plans for footings on my Anaheim project?
A qualified person has to prepare the construction plans, and for most project types Anaheim wants a California licensed architect or engineer. The city's building staff don't draw plans, so set aside time and budget for the design before you apply. Once the plans are approved, we build from them.
What is the best way to know which type of footing my project needs?
Your plans decide it, because the designer picks the footing type for the structure it will carry. The choices include isolated pads, continuous strips, trench footings, footings built into a slab, and piers, which is a lot to sort through, so ask your architect or engineer which one the plans call for. I'm glad to go over it with you when I come out.
When does the city inspect concrete footings in Anaheim?
For a patio cover, Anaheim's handout says to call for the first inspection once the footings are dug and the required hardware is on site. The inspector checks the size and depth of the footings at that visit, so plan for it between the digging and the pour.
How do I find out if I need a soils report for footings in Anaheim?
Ask the Building Division, because it lists a soils report waiver bulletin for residential structures among its foundation bulletins. Staff there can tell you how that waiver fits your project.
How long does a concrete footing job take in Anaheim?
Most of the time usually goes to the steps before the pour, getting the plans drawn, the permit issued and the dug holes inspected. The digging and pouring are usually the smaller part, and I'll walk you through where your project stands on each step at the estimate.
Other work that often goes with footings
Foundation raising
If a corner of the house has dropped and doors have started to stick, lifting it back toward level may need to come before any new footing work.
Explore Foundation raisingConcrete cutting
For a doorway in a block wall, a trench through the garage floor or a slab that has to come out in pieces, saw cutting does it cleanly.

When the plans call for a full foundation under a room addition or new building rather than a few footings, we plan and pour the whole base.

Building concrete footings in Anaheim and nearby
In Anaheim, the city's Building Division issues the permit needed before any structure is built, enlarged, altered, repaired, moved or removed. Its handout on work that needs no permit names retaining walls up to 4 feet tall from the bottom of the footing, unless they hold back extra weight, but footings on their own aren't on that list, so check the current rules with the Building Division at 714-765-5153. When a job needs a permit, we handle the application with the city and book the inspections, and if we're unsure what the city wants, we ask them before we start. Even work on the no-permit list gets a zoning check with a city Planner at 714-765-5139.
Most footings we pour here go in beside homes people already live in, often next to an older patio or in a tight side yard, so we plan the dig around what's there. Most cities in Orange County are classed as Seismic Design Category D, an earthquake design rating, which is one more reason we build to the plans exactly as drawn. We're based in Anaheim and do the same work in Fullerton, Orange and the cities around it across Orange County and nearby, so please call even if your city isn't listed here.
