Concrete Repair & Replacement
Fix cracked, uneven, or damaged concrete before small problems become expensive disasters.
When Concrete Needs Repair or Replacement
Concrete lasts decades when installed correctly, but even good concrete can develop problems over time. Settlement, tree roots, water damage, and normal wear eventually take their toll. Small cracks become big cracks. Uneven sections create trip hazards. Surface scaling makes concrete look old and worn. The good news is that catching problems early usually means repair works fine and costs far less than replacement.
We help homeowners in Aliso Viejo decide whether repair or replacement makes more sense for their situation. Sometimes a simple repair fixes the issue and extends the life of your concrete by years. Other times, the damage is too extensive or the underlying problems cannot be fixed, making replacement the smarter choice. We give you honest advice based on what we see, not what makes us more money.
Signs your concrete needs attention include cracks wider than a quarter inch, sections that have sunk or tilted, surface deterioration that exposes aggregate, standing water from improper drainage, or sections that rock when you step on them. Any of these issues should be evaluated sooner rather than later. Problems do not fix themselves, and concrete damage gets worse over time.
Concrete Repair Services We Provide
Not all concrete problems require complete replacement. We offer several repair options that fix damage, improve appearance, and extend the life of your existing concrete:
- •Crack repair and sealing: We clean out cracks, fill them with flexible sealant or epoxy, and prevent water from getting in and causing more damage.
- •Concrete leveling (mudjacking or foam injection): We lift sunken sections back to their original height by injecting material underneath to fill voids and stabilize the slab.
- •Surface resurfacing: We apply a new layer of concrete or specialized overlay material to cover surface damage and give old concrete a fresh appearance.
- •Spall and scaling repair: We remove damaged surface concrete and patch with high-quality repair materials that bond permanently to the existing slab.
- •Edge and corner rebuilding: We reconstruct broken corners and crumbling edges to prevent further deterioration and restore clean lines.
Each repair technique has specific applications where it works best. During our evaluation, we explain which approach makes sense for your situation and what results you can expect. Repairs are most successful when the underlying cause is addressed too, whether that means improving drainage, removing tree roots, or stabilizing the base.
When Replacement Makes More Sense
Sometimes concrete is beyond repair. Extensive cracking, major settlement, structural failure, or severely deteriorated surfaces usually indicate replacement is the better option. Trying to repair concrete that is too far gone wastes money on fixes that will not last. Complete replacement gives you a fresh start with new concrete that will last another 30-50 years.
Replacement also makes sense when you want to change the size, shape, or appearance of your concrete. If your patio is too small or your driveway needs widening, replacement lets you redesign the space to work better for your needs. You can also upgrade to decorative finishes, add proper drainage, or correct slope problems that cause water issues.
We remove the old concrete, haul it away, prepare the base properly, and pour new concrete using the same quality processes as any new installation. The result is concrete that looks perfect and performs reliably. We match existing sections when needed or create completely new designs based on your preferences.
One major advantage of replacement over repair is warranty coverage. New concrete comes with our standard warranty, while repairs typically have shorter coverage because we cannot control the condition of the existing concrete underneath. If your concrete has served its time and needs replacement, we handle everything from demolition to final finishing.
