Concrete is durable, but it is not indestructible. Over time, driveways, patios, sidewalks, and slabs develop cracks, settle unevenly, or show surface damage. The good news is that many concrete problems can be repaired without the cost and disruption of complete replacement. Professional repair and restoration can extend the life of your concrete for years and restore both function and appearance.
Here in Pittsburg, CA, temperature changes, soil movement, and water infiltration contribute to concrete damage. Small cracks turn into bigger cracks. Sunken sections create tripping hazards. Surface spalling makes concrete look worn and old. We evaluate your concrete damage, identify the underlying causes, and provide repair solutions that actually work. In many cases, repair is faster and more affordable than replacement while still giving you a surface you can rely on.
Common Concrete Problems We Fix
Concrete damage takes many forms. Here are the most common issues we see and repair:
- •Cracks: Hairline cracks, settlement cracks, or structural cracks in slabs and driveways
- •Sunken Slabs: Sections that have settled due to soil erosion or poor base preparation
- •Spalling: Surface flaking or peeling caused by freeze-thaw cycles or poor finishing
- •Trip Hazards: Uneven joints where one slab section is higher than another
- •Deteriorated Joints: Broken or missing control joints and expansion joints
- •Surface Damage: Stains, discoloration, or worn finishes
We assess the extent of damage and determine whether repair is the right solution or if replacement makes more sense. Our team gives you honest recommendations based on the condition of your concrete and your budget.
Our Repair Methods
Different problems need different solutions. We use proven repair techniques that address the root cause of damage, not just the symptoms. Here is how we fix common concrete issues:
For cracks, we clean out loose material, fill the crack with high-quality concrete repair products, and seal the surface to prevent water infiltration. Small hairline cracks can be sealed with flexible sealants. Larger structural cracks may need epoxy injection or full-depth repair.
For sunken slabs, we use slab jacking (also called mudjacking or concrete leveling) to lift settled sections back to the proper height. This involves drilling small holes, pumping material underneath the slab, and raising it until it is level. This method is much faster and less expensive than replacing the entire slab.
For surface damage like spalling, we remove the deteriorated concrete, prepare the surface, and apply a concrete overlay or resurfacing product that bonds to the existing slab. This gives you a fresh, smooth surface without starting from scratch. Our driveway services include repair options, and our patio work means we know how to restore outdoor concrete surfaces properly.
When to Repair vs Replace
Not all concrete damage requires full replacement. Here is how we help you decide:
Repair makes sense when the damage is localized, the concrete is structurally sound, and the repair will last for years. Examples include isolated cracks, minor settling, surface spalling, or trip hazards. Repair is faster and costs significantly less than replacement.
Replacement is the better choice when the concrete has widespread damage, severe structural issues, or when repair costs approach replacement costs. If your driveway has multiple large cracks, major settling, or was poorly installed to begin with, replacement gives you a fresh start with proper base preparation and modern techniques.
We evaluate your situation honestly and explain the pros and cons of each option. Our goal is to help you make the right decision for your property and budget, not to sell you something you do not need.
