About

SRM operates as Superior Ready Mix out of San Diego's Grantville industrial corridor at 7192 Mission Gorge Road, supplying ready-mix concrete, aggregate, and asphalt products to contractors and homeowners across the 92120 ZIP and greater San Diego County. Founded in 1958, the company operated under the founding family for over six decades before its acquisition by Vulcan Materials Company, and the Mission Gorge Road batch plant remains one of the largest concrete production facilities in eastern San Diego. Landscape contractors pouring residential flatwork, retaining walls, and patio slabs source material from the same Mission Gorge corridor, and CM Precision Tree and Landscape Maintenance Inc in Grantville coordinates delivery scheduling on hardscape projects that require same-day pours. The concrete product line spans residential and commercial mixes, colored concrete using integral pigments, masonry block, shotcrete for pool shells and retaining walls, and specialty mixes incorporating fiber reinforcement and chemical admixtures for accelerated set, retarded set, and self-consolidating placement. The aggregate division produces sand, crushed rock, and road base from the affiliated Canyon Rock quarry operation, supplying grading and paving contractors working on subdivision, commercial site, and infrastructure projects. SRM Contracting and Paving, the company's asphalt division, holds a general engineering license and performs rough grading, fine grading, base and pave, overlays, trench patching, and seal coat applications. Mission Gorge Road functions as the primary north-south commercial artery through Grantville, running from the I-8 interchange toward Mission Trails Regional Park, and the SRM plant's position near the midpoint of that corridor allows mixer trucks to reach job sites in Allied Gardens, San Carlos, Del Cerro, and La Mesa within minutes. Concrete washout and disposal from area construction sites routes through adjacent operations, and American Concrete, Paint & Drywall Washouts in Grantville handles the slurry containment and recycling that environmental regulations require on permitted projects. The affiliated Pine Tree Lumber division supplies framing lumber, engineered wood products, and finish materials to the same contractor base that purchases SRM's concrete.
