"Ryan was super responsive and professional. He provided quotes quickly and updated them, when needed. We had to wait for warmer weather to get started, and Ryan reached out to me promptly when the weather changed to get us on the books. He and his team were thorough and professional. The day they were supposed to lay the concrete, he canceled the delivery last minute because the weather was not conducive to proper curing. I was thankful he did that, because I would not have known the difference. I'd highly recommend them. Our driveway looks great. We just had to get some topsoil to fill in the edges after the frame was removed."

Concrete Resurfacing questions, answered by experts

Yes, adding a patio or other concrete feature can increase your property taxes, particularly if it's considered a permanent improvement. The general rule is that if the project requires a permit, your property taxes will likely go up.

Permanent structures like a poured concrete patio are considered capital improvements that require a permit, which will trigger a reassessment of your property's value. Other concrete projects that typically increase taxes include:

  • Pool decks

  • Walkways

  • Driveways

  • Steps

  • Foundations

In contrast, 'temporary' installations, such as a paver or flagstone patio, may not require a permit and are less likely to affect your property taxes.

Permit costs for a concrete patio can range from $75 to $200. While the tax increase varies based on your location and the project's size, it is often a minimal amount. Always contact your local building department before starting a project to confirm permit requirements and any potential impact on your taxes.

Deciding whether to repair, resurface, or replace your concrete driveway depends on its age, condition, and the cost of the potential work.

If your driveway is over 20 years old and showing significant deterioration, replacement is often the best option. Similarly, if the cost of repairs is 50% or more of the replacement value, it's more cost-effective to replace it. For newer concrete with minor issues, resurfacing can be a good choice, especially if you have maintained it well with regular sealing.

For a definitive recommendation, contact a reputable concrete contractor. They can assess the driveway's condition and advise whether repair, resurfacing, or a full replacement (which costs between $1,400 and $12,100) is the most sensible path.

The easiest way to handle extra-wet cement is to pour it, let it harden, and then recycle it using one of the methods above. You can also crush it down and sell it for base materials, although this can be pretty time-consuming. Your best bet is to start with less concrete than you need and make more as you go to avoid this problem.

If your cement garage floor is sinking and cracking, your first step should be to call a local structural engineer to assess the problem. They can determine if it’s a minor amount of sinking related to normal settlement or if the issue is structural in nature. If you do have structural damage, the engineer or a foundation repair company that you hire will come up with a plan to fix the issue, which often consists of mudjacking for less severe issues or underpinning for more extensive problems.

You can dry pour concrete over existing concrete, but it’s best to use wet pour concrete instead. Dry pour concrete is easier to apply, but in order for new concrete to adhere to old concrete, it needs the right mixture for slow, uniform curing. Additionally, dry pour concrete is less durable and less resistant to cracking and concrete sinking, so dry pouring over an existing slab may result in surface imperfections appearing prematurely.
