Concrete repair & resurfacing.
Capitol Concrete reviews damaged concrete before recommending a repair, resurfacing or replacement scope. We work on residential and commercial surfaces, with attention to the condition beneath the visible damage.
Free consultation. No obligation.
Separate finish damage from continuing movement
A worn surface, an isolated damaged edge and a settled slab are different conditions. We review the extent of deterioration, changes in level and water patterns before discussing a treatment. A cosmetic layer does not establish that the base or structure is sound.
Compare repair with replacement
Repair can be appropriate where the existing concrete remains suitable for the intended treatment. Widespread deterioration or movement may change that decision. The proposal should explain removal limits, preparation and the resulting finish so the comparison includes both the work and its limitations.
Match the scope to the surface’s use
Driveways, pedestrian areas and working floors have different traffic and access requirements. Tell us how the area is used and whether the property will remain occupied. Finish compatibility, care and return-to-use requirements are discussed for the selected work rather than assumed from a generic repair product.
Pricing the complete scope
What affects the estimate?
Repair area, depth and condition, preparation, access, finish expectations and the extent of removal affect pricing. Small visible damage can involve a larger scope if movement or water conditions are contributing to the problem.
Before we meet.
Start with the property address and a description of the work. These details help us prepare for a useful conversation:
- Photos showing the whole area, close-ups and level changes
- The age and known history of the concrete, if available
- Vehicle or pedestrian use and access needs during work
We discuss the scope and arrange a site visit. Your proposal identifies the included work, responsibilities and project-specific warranty terms. Changes to scope, cost or timing are documented before the changed work begins.
Tell us about your projectCan damaged concrete simply be covered?
Only a condition review can establish whether resurfacing is appropriate. An overlay may improve a suitable surface, but it should not be presented as a fix for continuing movement or unsuitable underlying conditions.
Will repaired concrete match the original?
Age, finish, color and weathering can make repairs visible. We discuss appearance and finish expectations during planning rather than promising an invisible match.
