Service Area

Burnaby, BC Location

Burnaby’s a busy place—with tight lots, steep slopes, and homes packed shoulder to shoulder. If your concrete job isn’t done right the first time, you’ll feel it every time it rains, every time you park, every time you walk across uneven ground.

That’s where General Concrete comes in.

We’ve been serving Burnaby and the surrounding areas for over 45 years. From replacing old driveways in Capitol Hill to pouring patios in South Slope and building solid retaining walls in Burnaby Heights—we’ve done it all. And we’ve done it right.

We show up when we say we will. We prep the job the right way. And we leave your site cleaner than we found it.

Because when your concrete is built to last, you shouldn’t have to think about it again.

What Makes Concrete Work in Burnaby Unique

Concrete work in Burnaby isn’t a one-size-fits-all deal. Between steep hillsides, compact lots, and ever-changing weather, projects here need a different kind of planning.

Here’s what we factor in:

• Steep grades and slopes: Especially in North Burnaby, poor prep leads to drainage issues, shifting slabs, and early cracking. We get the grade right—every time.
• Older infrastructure: Many homes in Burnaby were built decades ago. We know how to work around fragile landscaping, aging structures, and tricky access.
• Tight access and high density: Back lanes, narrow driveways, shared access—we’ve poured concrete in some of the tightest spots in the city.

We don’t just bring the trucks—we bring the strategy and experience that urban projects demand.

Why Burnaby Clients Choose General Concrete

“We live on a tight lot and weren’t sure how a crew would even manage to get the work done. General Concrete showed up early, explained everything clearly, and did a beautiful job on our new driveway and steps. Super clean, super professional.”
— Jessica M., Burnaby, BC

Real Questions from Burnaby Homeowners

Can you work around limited access or shared driveways?
Yes—we deal with narrow access points and tight backyards all the time. Our team knows how to navigate tight urban spaces without creating a mess or damaging nearby structures.

Do I need a permit for my project?
Driveways, retaining walls, and larger foundations often require permits. We’ll help you figure out what’s needed and either guide you through the process—or handle it for you.

What if my old concrete is cracked and unstable?
We’ll remove the old slab, check the base for issues, and rebuild with the proper depth, reinforcement, and slope to make sure your new surface lasts.

How long will it take?
Most projects take between 2–5 days, depending on complexity. We’ll give you a firm timeline before we start—and stick to it.

Do you take care of drainage and water management?
Absolutely. Burnaby gets its fair share of rain, and we make sure every slab is poured with the right slope and grading to move water away from your home—not toward it.
