Contra Costa County stretches from the industrial shoreline of Richmond and Hercules to the affluent suburbs of Danville, San Ramon, and Walnut Creek — one of the Bay Area's most diverse and rapidly growing residential markets. Souza & Son's Inc serves every city in Contra Costa County, from the bayside communities of Richmond and Pinole to the rolling foothills of Diablo Valley and the Delta waterfront communities of Brentwood and Oakley.
Paver driveways, patios, and outdoor entertaining areas are consistently among the highest-demand services in Contra Costa County's upscale Diablo Valley communities. We install Belgard Cambridge, Unilock Richcliffe, and EP Henry Coventry paver systems across all Contra Costa jurisdictions, pulling permits through each city's building department.
The eastern and northern foothills of Mount Diablo — reaching into Clayton, Alamo, Lafayette, Moraga, Orinda, and the hillside neighborhoods above Walnut Creek — present some of the Bay Area's most technically demanding retaining wall environments. Souza & Son's builds Contra Costa retaining walls with geogrid-reinforced segmental block, hand-placed natural boulders, or cast-in-place concrete depending on wall height, soil conditions, and visual requirements.
The Contra Costa Water District (CCWD) and EBMUD both serve portions of the county and maintain active WaterSmart turf replacement programs with rebates of up to $2.00 per square foot for qualifying synthetic grass installations. Our synthetic grass installations use premium, UV-stabilized turf fibers with double-backing and proper drainage design.
Pool removal and backyard conversion has become one of the most popular projects we complete in the county, typically converting the footprint to a combination of paver patio and synthetic turf. Permit requirements vary by city and our team handles the entire permitting process.
