Concrete Repair
Concrete repair covers the full range of services for damaged concrete: leveling, crack repair, resurfacing, and replacement. A concrete repair contractor can evaluate sunken driveways, cracked sidewalks, spalling patios, and other damaged surfaces, then recommend the right fix.
Types of Concrete Repair
Not all concrete damage is the same. The four main types of concrete repair are: leveling (raising sunken slabs), crack repair (filling and sealing), resurfacing (applying a thin overlay), and slab replacement (removing and repouring).
Concrete Leveling
Concrete leveling raises sunken or uneven slabs back to their original grade. Methods include mudjacking and foam leveling. Most jobs cost $3 to $10 per square foot.
Crack Repair
Hairline cracks and moderate settlement cracks can be filled with epoxy or polyurethane sealants. This prevents water from seeping beneath the slab and causing further erosion.
Resurfacing
Resurfacing applies a thin overlay (typically 1/4 to 1/2 inch) over existing concrete to restore a smooth, clean surface. It fixes cosmetic issues on slabs that are level but look worn.
Slab Replacement
When a slab is cracked into multiple pieces, badly spalled, or has settled more than 4 to 6 inches, full replacement is the right call. The old concrete is demolished, hauled away, and new concrete is poured.
How to Choose the Right Repair
The right concrete repair depends on the type and severity of damage. A slab that has sunk but is otherwise intact is a straightforward leveling job. A slab with cosmetic wear but no settlement may only need resurfacing. A slab that is cracked into pieces probably needs replacement.
The best approach is to have a qualified contractor evaluate your concrete in person. They can assess the structural integrity, check soil conditions, and recommend the most cost-effective repair. For guidance on vetting contractors, see our how to choose a contractor guide.
