What is Concrete Patio Repair?
Concrete patio repair involves using specialized materials to restore damaged patio areas to their original state or better. These repairs address concrete cracks, sinking, pitting, and other issues.
Reinforcing the slabs and underlying soil is the best way to address concrete patio damage. Tar Heel Basement Systems does this with our exclusive PolyRenewal™ concrete lifting system. It tackles soil instability and oversaturation, addressing the root causes of concrete deterioration for a long-term result.
This standalone product raises patios to their ideal level and is part of our broader whole-home solutions. By opting for concrete lifting, homeowners repair the patio and contribute to the overall stability of their entire home.
Signs Your Concrete Patio Needs Repair
Visible concrete patio damage or irregularities may indicate it is time for a repair. Here are the signs to look for:
- Pronounced cracks
- Sinking concrete slabs
- Water accumulation after rainfall
- Patio separation from adjoining structures
- Concrete pitting, flaking, or staining
- Other concrete damages (driveways, sidewalks, and steps)
Identifying concrete deterioration early will save you time and money. When you notice the signs, contact a local concrete repair expert like Tar Heel Basement Systems.
Is Concrete Patio Repair Necessary?
Yes, concrete repair is necessary. Addressing patio issues ensures long-term concrete durability and protects your home’s safety. However, we do not recommend “quick fixes” or traditional “tried and true” repairs like mudjacking or concrete repouring. These methods don’t address the underlying causes of damage, resulting in a temporary fix.
Your home deserves comprehensive, permanent protection. Tar Heel Basement Systems provides holistic home solutions to prevent foundation issues.
