Concrete Repair & Replacement

When to Repair vs. Replace Your Concrete

Not all damaged concrete needs to be torn out and replaced. Sometimes a repair is all you need to extend the life of your concrete surfaces by years. The decision comes down to the extent of the damage, the age of the concrete, and what caused the problem in the first place.

Small cracks, surface spalling, and minor settling can often be fixed with targeted repairs. We use techniques like epoxy injection for crack repair, resurfacing for worn surfaces, and slab jacking to lift sunken concrete back into place. These methods save you money and time compared to full replacement.

However, if your concrete has widespread cracking, major settling, or the base has failed, replacement is usually the smarter choice. Patching over serious structural issues is just a temporary fix that will fail again. We will inspect your concrete and give you an honest assessment of whether repair or replacement makes the most sense for your situation and budget.

Common Concrete Problems We Fix

Concrete damage happens for many reasons. Georgia soil, weather cycles, and settling can all take a toll on your slabs over time. We have seen and fixed just about every type of concrete problem you can imagine in Evans and the surrounding areas.

• Cracks: Hairline cracks, settlement cracks, and structural cracks can all be repaired depending on severity
• Settling and sinking: Slabs that have dropped or tilted due to soil erosion or poor compaction
• Surface damage: Spalling, scaling, and flaking caused by freeze-thaw cycles or poor finishing
• Uneven surfaces: Trip hazards from lifted edges or sunken sections that create drainage issues
• Water damage: Erosion under slabs, drainage problems, and moisture-related deterioration

Each problem requires a different solution. We match the repair method to the specific issue so you get results that last. Sometimes that means patching a few cracks. Other times it means addressing drainage problems before we can even think about fixing the concrete itself.

Our Concrete Repair and Replacement Process

Every repair or replacement project starts with a thorough inspection. We look at the damage, check for underlying causes like drainage issues or soil problems, and determine the best path forward. You get a detailed explanation of what we found and what we recommend.

For repairs:

We clean and prep the damaged area, apply the appropriate repair material using proven techniques, and finish the surface to match the surrounding concrete as closely as possible. Small repairs can be completed in a day. Larger projects may take longer depending on curing times and the extent of the work.

For replacements:

We remove the old concrete, address any base or drainage issues, prepare a solid foundation, and pour new concrete using quality materials and proper techniques. Replacement gives you a fresh start with concrete that will last another 25 to 40 years when properly maintained. We also offer decorative finishes if you want to upgrade the look while you are replacing the slab.

Whether we are repairing or replacing, we clean up completely when we are done. Your property will look better than when we started, and you will have concrete you can count on for years to come.
