Our Concrete Repair Services

We provide tailored concrete repair services depending on the condition and use of the surface. Here are our most common solutions:


🔧 Crack Repair & Joint Sealing

Cracks are more than just eyesores—they allow water to seep beneath the surface, which can cause more damage during freeze-thaw cycles. We use high-quality epoxy or polyurethane injections and flexible joint sealants to repair cracked concrete and restore structural integrity.


🔧 Concrete Patching

For localized damage such as holes or spalls, we offer concrete patching to restore the area without the need for full replacement. We carefully match texture and color to ensure seamless results.


🔧 Concrete Resurfacing

If your concrete surface is worn or outdated but still structurally sound, concrete resurfacing is a cost-effective alternative to replacement. We apply a new layer of high-strength overlay to revitalize patios, driveways, and sidewalks with a clean, fresh finish.


🔧 Concrete Leveling (Slab Jacking)

Uneven concrete is a trip hazard and drainage problem. We offer concrete leveling (also called slab jacking or mud jacking) to raise sunken slabs back to their original position. This process fills voids beneath the surface, stabilizing the slab and eliminating unevenness.


🔧 Concrete Restoration

For more extensive deterioration, we offer full concrete restoration services that may include partial demo, reinforcement, patching, and surface finishing. Ideal for older or neglected concrete.


Concrete Repair Applications

We offer concrete repairs for virtually all residential and commercial concrete surfaces:

  • Driveways: Repair cracks, edge damage, or sunken slabs without full replacement
  • Sidewalks & Walkways: Eliminate trip hazards and restore clean walking paths
  • Patios & Pool Decks: Resurface or patch outdoor living areas for safety and beauty

  • Commercial Parking Lots: Repair high-traffic areas with minimal downtime

If it's made of concrete and needs attention, Prime Concrete has you covered.


When to Repair vs Replace Concrete

Not all damaged concrete needs to be torn out and replaced. In many cases, repairs can restore both function and appearance at a fraction of the time and disruption. Hairline cracks, surface chipping, or slightly sunken areas can often be repaired effectively. On the other hand, if the concrete is severely deteriorated, has widespread cracking, or is failing structurally due to base issues, replacement may be the better long-term solution. Every situation is different, which is why it's important for our team to inspect your concrete in person. We consider factors like terrain, drainage, access for equipment, and the underlying base condition. Once we assess the area, we’ll provide an exact estimate along with repair and replacement options, so you can make the most informed decision.


We’ll provide an honest assessment and help you decide which route makes the most sense for your property and budget.
