Concrete Repair & Restoration
Fix cracks, settle uneven surfaces, and restore your concrete to like-new condition.
Concrete is one of the most durable materials you can use, but it is not indestructible. Over time, weather, settling, tree roots, and heavy use can cause cracks, chips, uneven surfaces, and other damage. The good news is that many concrete problems can be repaired at a fraction of the cost of replacement.
We provide concrete repair and restoration services for homeowners and businesses throughout Martinez, CA. Whether you have a cracked driveway, a sunken walkway, or damaged patio, we can evaluate the problem and recommend the right fix. Our team uses proven repair methods and quality materials to restore your concrete so it looks better and performs reliably.
Common Concrete Problems We Fix
Concrete damage comes in many forms. Some issues are cosmetic, while others affect safety and function. Here are the most common problems we see and repair in the Martinez area.
Types of Concrete Damage We Repair:
- Cracks from settling, shrinkage, or tree roots
- Sunken or uneven slabs that create trip hazards
- Spalling and surface deterioration from freeze-thaw cycles
- Chips, holes, and broken edges
- Discoloration and staining
- Failed joints and control cracks
We start every repair project with an inspection to identify the cause of the damage. If the problem is still active, like ongoing settling or water damage, we address the root cause first. Then we make the repairs so the problem does not come back.
How We Repair and Restore Concrete
The right repair method depends on the type and extent of the damage. Small cracks can be filled and sealed. Larger structural cracks may require routing, reinforcement, and patching. Sunken slabs can often be lifted back into place using specialized equipment. We explain your options and recommend the repair approach that makes the most sense for your situation and budget.
For surface damage like spalling or chips, we grind down the damaged area, clean it thoroughly, and apply a repair compound that bonds to the existing concrete. The result is a smooth, durable surface that blends with the rest of the slab. For cracks, we use flexible sealants or epoxy injections to fill the void and prevent water intrusion. If your concrete has settled or become uneven, we use mudjacking or polyurethane foam lifting to raise it back to the correct level.
Repair vs. Replacement: What Makes Sense?
Not all damaged concrete needs to be replaced. In many cases, repair is faster, more affordable, and just as effective. We help you understand when repair makes sense and when replacement is the better investment.
Generally, if the damage is limited to small cracks, minor settling, or surface issues, repair is the way to go. If the concrete is severely cracked throughout, badly deteriorated, or has major structural problems, replacement may be more cost-effective long-term. We give you honest advice based on the condition of your concrete and your goals for the property.
