Adding a room to your Tempe home means tying a new foundation into an existing structure without cracking, settling, or mismatched grade. We've poured additions for homeowners across Tempe, from Kiwanis Park area to South Tempe.

As a third-generation, family-owned concrete company led by an active firefighter, we bring the same precision and dependability to your project that the job demands — work built to hold up under pressure.

Why Tempe Property Owners Choose Cortez Concrete for Room Addition Concrete Slabs & Foundations

Tying a new foundation into an existing home requires matching grade, managing differential settlement between old and new concrete, and keeping drainage working correctly around the addition. Tempe's older, denser lots mean tighter equipment access and mature tree roots that have to be worked around during excavation.

Here's what makes the difference on a Tempe project:

Permit-ready foundation work coordinated with your general contractor or architect
Precise grade matching so the new slab ties cleanly into your existing home's elevation
Minimal disruption to existing landscaping, driveways, and hardscape during construction
Drainage planning so the addition doesn't redirect water toward your existing foundation
Engineered footings sized for your addition's structural load

Our Room Addition Concrete Slabs & Foundations Process

Site Assessment — We evaluate your existing foundation, grade, and structural tie-in points.
Excavation & Footings — Footings poured to the engineered specs for your addition's load requirements.
Slab Pour — The new slab is poured to match your existing floor elevation.
Grade & Drainage Tie-In — We regrade around the addition to keep water moving away from both structures.
Final Grade & Cleanup — Site restored and graded, ready for your framing crew.

Local Knowledge for Room Addition Concrete Slabs & Foundations in Tempe

Tempe permits through the City of Tempe, and its older, denser lots frequently mean tight equipment access and mature tree roots we have to work around during excavation.

As a built-out college town, most Tempe concrete work is replacement and renovation rather than new construction, which calls for careful demo next to existing structures.

That local knowledge is the difference between room addition work that lasts and work that fails early — and it's why Tempe property owners keep calling Cortez Concrete.

A Family Name Arizona Has Trusted for Three Generations

Cortez Concrete isn't a franchise or a fly-by-night crew. We're a family business, now in our third generation, built on the same values our grandfather started with — showing up, doing the work right, and standing behind it. Our owner still works as an active firefighter, and that same sense of discipline, safety, and attention to detail carries over into every project we pour in Tempe and across the Valley.

Hire Cortez Concrete and you're working directly with the family whose name is on the truck — not a call center, and not a crew you'll never see again.
