Concrete Repair & Replacement

Not every crack or damaged section needs full replacement. Sometimes a targeted repair saves you money and extends the life of your concrete. Other times, trying to patch old, failing concrete is like putting a bandaid on a broken bone. You need to know the difference, and we will give you an honest assessment of what makes sense for your situation.

Minor cracks, small chips, and surface damage often respond well to repair. We can fill cracks, patch spalled areas, and restore surfaces that have lost their finish. If the underlying structure is sound and the damage is limited, repair is usually the right choice. You get years of additional service at a fraction of replacement cost.

Replacement makes more sense when you have extensive cracking, significant settling, or structural damage. If more than 25 to 30 percent of your concrete is damaged, replacement typically costs less in the long run than trying to repair everything. We will walk you through the options and help you make the choice that gives you the best value. Visit our main page to see the full range of concrete services we offer.

Cracks are the most common issue we see. Some cracks are just cosmetic, while others signal serious problems. Hairline cracks that do not go all the way through the slab are usually not urgent. Wider cracks or cracks that allow water penetration need attention before they get worse. We assess the type and severity of cracks and recommend the appropriate concrete repair method.

Settling and sinking create trip hazards and drainage problems. This happens when the soil under your concrete compacts or washes away, leaving voids that let the concrete drop. We can raise sunken concrete through a process called mudjacking or polyurethane injection. This is much faster and cheaper than replacement and eliminates dangerous trip hazards.

Surface damage like spalling, scaling, and pitting makes concrete look bad and gets worse over time. Spalling is when the surface flakes or chips away, often caused by freeze-thaw cycles or poor concrete quality. Scaling creates a rough, pitted surface. We can resurface damaged concrete to restore both appearance and function, giving you a smooth, attractive surface again.

Issues We Address

• Cracks of all sizes, from hairline to structural
• Sunken or settled sections that create trip hazards
• Spalling, scaling, and surface deterioration
• Broken or damaged edges and corners
• Discoloration and staining that detracts from appearance
• Drainage problems caused by improper slope
• Structural damage from freeze-thaw cycles or impact

We start by thoroughly inspecting your concrete to identify all issues and determine what is causing them. Surface problems often have underlying causes that need to be addressed. We look for signs of poor drainage, inadequate reinforcement, or soil problems that contributed to the damage. Fixing the symptom without addressing the cause just leads to the same problems coming back.

For crack repair, we clean out the crack, remove any loose material, and fill it with appropriate repair products. Small cracks might need epoxy or polyurethane injection. Larger cracks require routing and sealing with flexible materials that can handle some movement. We match repair materials to your existing concrete for the best appearance and performance.

Resurfacing damaged concrete involves removing the deteriorated surface layer and applying new material. We use specialty concrete overlays that bond to the existing surface and create a fresh, durable finish. You can choose from various textures and colors to match or update the look of your concrete. This approach costs much less than replacement while delivering excellent results.

For replacement sections, we carefully remove the damaged concrete and prepare the base properly before pouring new concrete. We make sure new concrete ties into existing sections correctly and matches the surrounding surface as closely as possible. Whether you need to replace a small section or an entire driveway, we handle it with the same attention to detail.
