Look beyond the crack

A single surface crack is different from a slab that has lifted, settled or broken through. The cause helps determine whether a targeted repair or replacement is appropriate.

Uneven edges also deserve attention because they can create a trip hazard.

Check water and roots

Drainage, expansive soils and nearby tree roots can all move concrete. Addressing the source helps protect the next repair.

A site visit is the best way to understand the full condition.

Match the solution to the property

New sections should meet adjoining surfaces cleanly and direct water appropriately.
