Why is my concrete cracking?

<div><p>Concrete can crack from general wear, improper installation, or in response to uneven support from the soil underneath. Small, thin cracks on the surface of aging concrete are usually a result of normal wear and tear, while <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-freshly-poured-concrete-normally-crack.htm">cracks on new concrete</a> more likely indicate a problem with installation. Larger cracks or uneven steps can signify a much more severe issue. A concrete contractor should be able to diagnose the cause and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-repair-concrete-cracks.htm">repair concrete cracks</a> for you.</p></div>

How long does a concrete driveway and steps last?

<div><p>A concrete driveway lasts between <b>25 and 30 years</b>, provided you maintain it correctly. Other factors that impact the lifespan of a concrete driveway include your location’s climate and the amount of wear and tear it receives. Heavier vehicles, like RVs and trucks, notoriously create more wear and tear than lighter vehicles and, therefore, might reduce the concrete driveway’s overall lifespan. </p><p>With proper maintenance, exterior concrete steps can last<b> 25 to 50 years</b> or more. In most cases, your steps will require some minor repairs over that time frame, including sealing surface cracks and resurfacing to keep them in good condition. Interior concrete steps should last even longer, usually between 50 and 75 years, as they don’t have to stand up to the elements.</p></div>

How much does concrete resurfacing cost?

<div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/concrete-resurfacing-cost.htm">cost of resurfacing concrete</a> is <b>$6 per square foot</b> on average, though that cost can range from <b>$3 to $9</b> <b>per square foot</b>. </p><p>For a driveway that is 200 square feet, you can expect to pay $600 to $1,800, and for a driveway that is 500 square feet, that cost averages $1,500 to $4,500. Resurfacing your driveway will give you the look and feel of a new surface without the hefty cost.</p></div>

What should I do at the same time as repairing concrete steps?

<div><p>You may want to hire a concrete floor contractor to check out your home’s concrete surfaces or inspect your home’s foundation for minor damages that they can fix while on site. They may be able to fix <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-causes-concrete-and-asphalt-driveway-cracks.htm">cracks in your driveway</a> or garage floor the same day they fix your concrete steps, as well. General concrete repair experts usually won’t be able to handle larger jobs, like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/diy-mudjacking.htm">leveling a sunken foundation</a>, so you’ll need to hire a structural engineer for bigger projects.</p></div>

John, owner of Frogiero Contracting, is an expert in concrete work. Day 1 - excavation: John came with a full crew, bobcat, and demolition removal truck. Day 2 - concrete pour. Relief joints were all very well done. John even cut a straight line on the joining concrete at no extra charge.

"Timmy was an absolute pleasure to work with. He explained the process in depth, had great communication throughout the job and has an amazing team who were very nice. They left the job site each time throughout the process as clean as could be, which says a lot with the extent of work they do. I received other quotes and theirs was extremely fair especially considering the high quality craftsmanship of the finished driveway. No cut corners, no random up-charges, just great quality work at the quoted price. I would recommend Timmy and his crew to anyone looking for good people that stand by their word. I will be calling them in the future without hesitation for any future projects."

"We couldn’t be happier with the incredible job Jose and his team from JG Landscapers did for us. We had been struggling for months to tackle a massive overgrowth of unmanageable shrubs, bushes, and — to our surprise — thick poison ivy, oak, and sumac that had completely taken over the front of our home. My husband and I felt overwhelmed and defeated. Jose’s team came in with professionalism, skill, and efficiency and transformed our entire landscape in just a short time. They removed everything with care and precision, leaving behind a perfectly prepped space that’s now ready for fresh grass and a clean new look. What we appreciate most is how they gave us a renewed sense of pride in our property. The front of our home looks refreshed and open, and we can’t wait to watch the new grass grow in. We’re already planning to use JG Landscapers for future projects! Highly recommend — if you’re feeling stuck or discouraged with your yard, this is the team to call."

FAQs for concrete driveway service projects in Copiague, NY

Concrete can crack from general wear, improper installation, or in response to uneven support from the soil underneath. Small, thin cracks on the surface of aging concrete are usually a result of normal wear and tear, while cracks on new concrete more likely indicate a problem with installation. Larger cracks or uneven steps can signify a much more severe issue. A concrete contractor should be able to diagnose the cause and repair concrete cracks for you.

A concrete driveway lasts between 25 and 30 years, provided you maintain it correctly. Other factors that impact the lifespan of a concrete driveway include your location’s climate and the amount of wear and tear it receives. Heavier vehicles, like RVs and trucks, notoriously create more wear and tear than lighter vehicles and, therefore, might reduce the concrete driveway’s overall lifespan.

With proper maintenance, exterior concrete steps can last 25 to 50 years or more. In most cases, your steps will require some minor repairs over that time frame, including sealing surface cracks and resurfacing to keep them in good condition. Interior concrete steps should last even longer, usually between 50 and 75 years, as they don’t have to stand up to the elements.

The cost to install a concrete driveway is $4 to $15 per square foot on average. Your price heavily depends on your desired concrete finish and driveway size.

For a driveway that is 200 square feet, you can expect to pay an average cost of $1,900. For a driveway at double that size (400 square feet), the average price is closer to $3,800. Plain concrete is significantly more cost-effective, averaging $7 per square foot, whereas stained concrete averages around $19 per square foot.

The cost of resurfacing concrete is $6 per square foot on average, though that cost can range from $3 to $9 per square foot.

For a driveway that is 200 square feet, you can expect to pay $600 to $1,800, and for a driveway that is 500 square feet, that cost averages $1,500 to $4,500. Resurfacing your driveway will give you the look and feel of a new surface without the hefty cost.

You may want to hire a concrete floor contractor to check out your home’s concrete surfaces or inspect your home’s foundation for minor damages that they can fix while on site. They may be able to fix cracks in your driveway or garage floor the same day they fix your concrete steps, as well. General concrete repair experts usually won’t be able to handle larger jobs, like leveling a sunken foundation, so you’ll need to hire a structural engineer for bigger projects.
