When You Need Concrete Repair
Concrete damage happens over time. Freeze-thaw cycles, heavy loads, tree roots, and settling soil all take their toll on your driveway, patio, or foundation. If you see cracks wider than a quarter inch, chunks breaking off, or sections sinking, it is time to take action. Waiting only makes things worse and more expensive to fix.
Here in McAllen, TX, our hot summers and occasional heavy rains can speed up concrete damage. Small cracks let water seep in, which weakens the base material underneath. Before you know it, a small repair job becomes a full replacement project. That is why we tell homeowners to call us as soon as they notice a problem.
We handle everything from minor crack filling to complete section replacement. Our team evaluates your concrete to determine whether repair or replacement makes the most sense. Sometimes a targeted repair can add years to your surface. Other times, starting fresh is the smarter investment. We give you honest recommendations based on what we see, not what costs more.
Common signs you need concrete repair:
- •Cracks wider than a quarter inch or growing over time
- •Uneven sections that create trip hazards
- •Spalling or flaking on the surface
- •Water pooling in areas where it used to drain properly
- •Sections that have sunk or shifted out of place
Our Repair Process
Every repair job starts with a thorough inspection. We look at the damage, check the base material, and test the surrounding concrete. This helps us understand what caused the problem and how to fix it permanently. You do not want a repair that only lasts a few months.
For crack repair, we clean out the damaged area completely and fill it with high-strength materials designed for your specific situation. Surface repairs get special attention to match the existing finish. If sections need replacement, we remove the damaged concrete, fix any base issues, and pour new concrete that blends with what is already there.
We also look for the root cause. If settling soil caused the damage, we address that before pouring new concrete. If drainage problems led to erosion, we fix the grading. Our goal is to solve the underlying issue, not just cover up the symptoms. That is how you get repairs that actually last. When we finish, you get a detailed explanation of what we found and what we did to fix it.

Repair vs Replacement: Which One Do You Need?
This is the question we hear most often. The answer depends on how much damage exists and where it is located. If less than 30 percent of your surface is damaged, repair usually makes sense. If damage covers more than half the area, replacement often costs less in the long run.
Age matters too. Concrete typically lasts 30 to 40 years with proper care. If your surface is already 25 years old and showing multiple problems, replacement might be the smarter choice. You avoid repeated repair costs and get a fresh surface that will last decades.
Some damage cannot be repaired effectively. Deep structural cracks, severe heaving, or widespread deterioration all point toward replacement. We walk you through the options and show you what each approach will deliver. You make the final call based on your budget and long-term plans for the property.
What affects the repair or replace decision:
- •Total percentage of surface that is damaged
- •Current age of the concrete and overall condition
- •Severity and depth of cracks or structural issues
- •Underlying base conditions and drainage problems
