Decision Guide
Concrete Repair vs. Replacement
Repair extends the life of concrete you already have. Replacement resets the clock. This guide covers how to weigh the two.
Type and Extent of Damage
Localized cracks or spalling on an otherwise sound slab often favor repair. Widespread damage, structural issues, or major settling generally favor replacement.
Remaining Life
An older slab near the end of its expected life may not justify significant repair investment. A newer slab with a specific issue often does.
Cost Comparison
Repair costs less up front but may not last as long. Compare repair estimates against replacement to see the long-term picture.
Making the Call
Share photos or request an on-site review. See repair and replacement pages.
