    Types of Concrete and Paver Repairs

    Cracks
    Less Maintainnance
    Cracks

    Cracks can be a big problem with concrete when there are not enough control joints installed. These cracks can appear as soon as two weeks after the concrete has been poured. Cracks are not only unsightly, but they also can allow water to seep into the pad which worsens the damage.

    Spalling or Pitting

    Spalling is the chipping or flaking that occurs when concrete is exposed to a severe freeze- thaw cycle or sometimes when concrete was mixed improperly. When the mixing process does not include the appropriate amount of air incorporation to allow for water expansion spalling is more likely to occur.

    Settlement

    When voids or air pockets occur under the concrete pad, the concrete surface begins to settle into the void and causes cracking or breaking. Even a small amount of settling can lead to much larger issues if not addressed appropriately.

    There are many ways the concrete contractors will try to cheat you. Here are two of the most common:

    Concrete Skin Patching

    When a contractor wants to patch over areas that should be completely removed and replaced is one way that contractors will try to take advantage of you. They “repair” the concrete with a thin layer of overlay that will not withstand normal wear and tear and will fall apart within a couple of weeks. This patch lasts just long enough for the contractor to get paid and disappear.

    Improper crack fills

    Some contractors may perform concrete crack repair with products that do not prevent water from penetrating them, which causes larger issues down the road.

    Lifting

    Lifting is a consequence of the freeze- thaw cycle. It is also a result of tree root grown nearby that causes a large area of concrete to lift beneath the pad. Lifting must be addressed immediately in order to prevent further damage.

    Sealed Concrete
    Less Maintainnance
    Improper Sealing

    Often times a crooked contractor will water down the sealer that is used to get more coverage with less materials and increase their own profits. This scam makes you think that your concrete needs to be sealed more often, further lining the contractors pockets.

    Concrete Overlays
    Less Maintainnance
    Overuse of Concrete Overlays

    This may be one of the biggest problems to avoid in concrete repair services. Often a contractor, who focuses the majority of their work on concrete overlays, will convince you that an overlay will solve your repair needs, when your concrete needs a complete overhaul. Not only will they recommend an overlay, but they will do it with subpar practices, leaving you footing the bill for repair and maintenance down the road.

    Brick Re-pointing

    You may have noticed that the mortar between the joints of your brick or stonework seems to have receded or that it is simply not as stable as it once seemed to be. Flaking, crumbling, or large cracks in the mortar may be indications that you need to have your brick or stone repointed. Repointing should be done by a professional,and we are here to service all of your repointing needs to restore the integrity of your structure.

    Tuck Pointing

    When the mortar has deteriorated around your brick or stone structures, you may want to consider tuck pointing. Tuck pointing involves removing a portion of the deteriorated mortar, filling the joints with new mortar and a thin layer of putty to cosmetically enhance the appearance of the worn out mortar joints.

    Types of maintenance

    Routine maintenance can extend the life of your concrete and Pavers

    Concrete Pavers

    Paver Maintenance

    Typical routine maintenance simply involves removing dirt and leaves by sweeping and an occasional rinsing. Sometimes as pavers settle, it may become necessary to reposition the affected pavers. Overtime as erosion occurs with the subbase, pavers can be easily removed, to reinstall the subbase and reset the pavers. Sealing the pavers can also help to prevent future shifting and settling.

    Concrete Maintenance

    Concrete can be easily maintained to extend the life of the concrete and keep it looking like brand new. Keeping your concrete clean to remove dirt and debris is a great way to maintain your concrete on a regular basis. When stains do occur, it is also a good idea to clean them as quickly as possible to keep the staining from further seeping into the porous surface. Hiring a professional pressure washing company once a year is a great way to keep your concrete clean. Also, sealing your concrete surfaces is an important way to extend the life of your existing concrete. Sealers should be applied every three to five years to keep your concrete properly maintained.
