Concrete Repair, Replacement & Flatwork

wiBuilder helps keep driveways, walkways, patios, and slabs safe and clean — from simple crack sealing to full panel replacement and new concrete pours.

We focus on solving the underlying issue, not just covering it up: drainage, soil movement, tree roots, and heavy vehicle loads are all factored in so the repair lasts instead of failing again in a year or two.

See How Our Concrete Repair Process Works

Watch a short overview of how wiBuilder approaches concrete repairs — from trip hazards and cracked driveways to small slabs and patios.

  • On-site assessment focused on safety, drainage, and how you use the area.
  • Side-by-side options for patching, panel replacement, or full re-pour where needed.
  • Respectful crews who manage dust, protect adjacent landscaping, and clean up daily.

The goal is to leave you with concrete that looks clean, drains properly, and holds up to everyday use — not just for listing photos or the first rainy season.

Common Concrete Repair Questions

Here are a few questions we hear often. We’ll talk through your specific driveway, walkway, or slab in more detail during the site visit.

Not necessarily. Hairline and non-moving cracks can sometimes be routed and sealed, while wider, lifted, or sinking sections usually benefit from panel replacement or re-pouring. We’ll explain what’s cosmetic, what’s a safety issue, and where replacement is more cost-effective long term.

Light foot traffic is often allowed after about 24 hours, while typical passenger vehicles usually need 5–7 days, and heavy vehicles may need longer. We’ll give specific guidance based on thickness, mix, and weather conditions.

Yes. If water is running toward the house or pooling in specific spots, we can adjust slopes, add surface or trench drains, and re-direct water. Fixing drainage at the same time helps the new concrete last longer and protects nearby structures.

Photos of the damaged areas, approximate age of the concrete, any known utility lines underneath, whether heavy vehicles use the area (RVs, work trucks), and if there are HOA or city requirements. Sharing this up front helps us bring the right options and rough ranges to the first visit.
Typical concrete projects: Many concrete repairs and small flatwork projects range between $800–$45,000+, depending on area size, thickness, base conditions, and finish level.
