Deluxe Shotcrete: Our Story

Deluxe Shotcrete began in 2000 with a small crew and a single rig. We're still family owned, and we've built our name across the Bay Area one job at a time.

Our specialty is structural shotcrete. We build the walls that hold hillsides in place and the concrete that keeps buildings standing when the ground moves. That means soil retention walls, soil nail walls, underground garages, and seismic retrofits. We also shoot pools and winery projects that call for the same skill: cellars and tanks cut into slopes, and retaining walls that have to look as good as they perform.

Shotcrete is only part of what we do. We're a full-service concrete contractor, and we handle the job from dirt work to finished concrete. Excavation, grading, drilled piers, soil nail installation, forming, reinforcing, placing, and finishing all come from one team, so you're not coordinating five subcontractors or wondering who's responsible when something goes wrong. One crew, one point of accountability, one standard from the first cut of soil to the last finished surface.

Shotcrete rewards experience. The mix, the pressure, and the hand on the nozzle decide whether a wall lasts a few years or a few generations. It goes where forms can't, like steep cuts, tight excavations, curved walls, and old buildings that need strengthening without being torn apart. Those are the jobs we're known for.

Jesse Humphreys founded Deluxe on a simple idea: build a business on integrity, and build a company culture that protects it. That belief still drives every decision we make. We say what we'll do, do what we said, and treat our crew and our clients the way we'd want to be treated. Our integrity is why engineers specify us, general contractors trust us with tight schedules, and homeowners recommend us to their neighbors.

Any shape. Any slope. Solid every time.
