Concord Truss Manufacturer for Remodels, ADUs & Commercial Infill
Concord is Contra Costa's largest city and largely a post-war build-out, which makes it a remodel and ADU market before a new-construction one. Walker engineers replacement and addition trusses that land correctly on 1950s and 60s framing, plus commercial and floor truss packages for the downtown and BART-adjacent infill.
Your Local Truss Manufacturing Experts Serving Concord, CA
Concord is Contra Costa County's largest city and one of its oldest suburban build-outs. Much of the housing stock went up in the post-war decades, which makes Concord a renovation market first and a new-construction market second. Add the long-running redevelopment of the former Naval Weapons Station and the steady commercial infill around Todos Santos Plaza, and the truss demand is genuinely varied. Mike Walker Lumber Co Inc has supplied this kind of mixed market since 1974.
Our family-owned business has spent over five decades perfecting truss fabrication from our plant at 6915 30th Street in North Highlands. With more than 10,154 completed projects and a team of nearly 50 skilled employees, we bring real manufacturing capacity to Concord work. Concord sits on our established delivery route, so packages arrive on the framing schedule without special arrangement.
Understanding Concord's Unique Construction Landscape
With about 125,000 residents, a median home value near $700,000, and an average housing stock age around 55 years, Concord's construction market is dominated by work on existing buildings:
Post-War Remodels and Additions: Ranch homes from the 1950s and 60s make up much of Concord's stock. Remodel Trusses and New Addition Trusses have to integrate with 2x6 rafter framing and original plate heights that no longer match current practice.
ADU Construction: Concord has processed substantial ADU volume, both detached and garage-conversion. We engineer compact roof packages that work within rear-yard setbacks and the height envelope the city applies.
Commercial and Mixed-Use Infill: Downtown around Todos Santos and the Monument Boulevard corridor continues to see commercial shells and mixed-use construction, calling for Commercial Trusses and long-span profiles.
Multi-Family Development: Transit-adjacent parcels near the Concord and North Concord BART stations support higher-density residential where Floor Trusses carry both the span and the mechanical runs.
Comprehensive Truss Services Tailored for Concord
Mike Walker Lumber Co Inc offers a full range of truss manufacturing and design services for the Concord market. Every package is built in Doug Fir lumber, engineered to the project's actual load conditions, and stamped for submittal to City of Concord Building Division.
Our custom Residential Trusses form the structural backbone of homes across Concord. We work directly with architects and builders to design roof and floor systems that satisfy the specific load requirements, ceiling geometry, and local code provisions each project carries.
ADU Trusses let Concord property owners add living space without relocating. Our design team delivers compact, cost-effective roof packages that maximize usable volume while holding to the height and setback limits the local jurisdiction enforces.
Remodel Trusses and New Addition Trusses are custom-engineered to integrate with what is already standing. Older Concord structures rarely match modern framing dimensions, and we design the new system to land correctly on the existing bearing rather than forcing the contractor to rebuild underneath it.
For larger work, our Commercial Trusses and Multi-Family Trusses cover retail shells, office buildings, and higher-density residential in Concord. We engineer long-span profiles with clear spans up to 70 feet and coordinate with steel-fabricator partners where a project pairs steel girder elements with Doug Fir truss systems.
Floor Trusses provide superior span capability and stiffness for multi-story Concord projects. They also let plumbing, electrical, and HVAC run straight through the floor system instead of boring solid joists, which produces cleaner finishes and a faster mechanical rough-in.
When fire damages a structure, our Fire Restorations service moves quickly. We assess the damage, engineer replacement trusses that match the original geometry, and get Concord property owners back under a roof without avoidable delay.
Our work begins well before fabrication. Truss Design Consultation puts our engineering team alongside yours to optimize the structure early, and Value Engineering identifies material and labor savings that do not compromise structural performance — often the difference between a Concord project penciling out or not.
Where existing trusses have been damaged, altered, or overloaded, our Truss Repairs and reinforcement service restores structural capacity with an engineered, stamped solution rather than a field improvisation.

"Concord is a remodel town. The stock is fifty-plus years old, and the plate heights and rafter sizes from that era don't line up with how anybody frames now. Our job is engineering a new truss that lands correctly on an old wall and doesn't force the contractor to rebuild everything underneath it. That's most of what we do out here."
