Concrete Repair for Bernalillo Homes and Businesses
A driveway in Las Cocinitas and a patio in Bosque Encantado each wear out in their own way, and the fix should follow the cause. We repair cracked, sunken and worn concrete all over town, at houses and at shops.
The estimate costs nothing. We pick up, or ring you back the same working day.

Concrete Repair in Bernalillo
We repair cracked, sunken and worn concrete for homes and businesses in Bernalillo: the drive, the front walk, the back patio, the steps and the slab under a carport.
- 1992Median year a house in town went up
- 81.4%Share of homes lived in by the people who own them
Much of the concrete around those houses has now been through a lot of winters and summers, and it shows the usual signs: a corner cracked off the drive, one walk panel sitting lower than the next, a top gone rough and pitted. The trade calls that last one "spalling"; most owners just call it flaking.
Shops and offices get the same treatment. A broken walk or a settled slab at a door along Camino del Pueblo is fixed where it sits, and the sound concrete beside it stays put.

Concrete Repair Matched to Bernalillo Conditions
We match each concrete repair to what caused the damage, whether that means patching a crack, leveling a slab or resurfacing the top.
Winter is the hard part on concrete here. Water works into cracks and into the pores of the surface, freezes overnight, swells and pops the top off in flakes, and each round makes the opening a little bigger. So we seal cracks early, and we seal the concrete we repair and keep it sealed.
Summer pushes the other way. Heat makes a patch or an overlay set fast and lose its water, so we start early in the day, slow the set with "retarders" or an "evaporation retardant" when the weather calls for it, and cure the work straight away.

Before you tear it out
A Concrete Repair Question From Bernalillo
Cracked or sunken concrete can often be repaired rather than replaced, provided the slab underneath is still stable.
Repair works well when the concrete is mostly stable and the damage is isolated, such as small cracks, minor chips or surface wear. A slab like that gets patched, lifted or given a new top, and the rest of it stays in service.
That is the first thing we check when we come out, and we tell you plainly which side of the line your slab is on.

FAQ
Patch answers.
Two things owners ask once they have decided to fix the slab instead of replacing it.
What is the best material to patch concrete?
The best patch is the one that suits the damage. A crack is cleaned out, filled and sealed, while a sound slab with a flaking, pitted top takes a thin bonded "overlay" rather than a scatter of spot patches.
Whatever goes in has to bond to clean concrete and be cured right away, because in summer heat a patch sets fast and dries out.
How do you stick new concrete to old concrete?
By getting the old surface clean and open first. "Diamond grinding" takes off contaminants and opens the surface so a repair or coating can bond to it.
The new material then goes on, and we cure it straight away; on a hot day we slow the set so it grips before it dries.
