Concrete Problems Common in Margate

Concrete in Margate is some of the oldest we work on, and most of the problems we see come from age and from the base underneath.

Signs Your Margate Concrete Needs Work

Homeowners in Margate usually call us about one of these:

Original 1970s driveways often sit on a thinner base than today’s 4 inch road rock rule. A driveway that keeps cracking and sinking should be replaced on a proper compacted base.
Cracks in the seams between slabs let rain reach the sand underneath. Each rainy season washes more of it out, so the cracks should be sealed or the slab leveled.
Sunken walkways and patio edges settle on Broward sand that can stay saturated from June to September. A sunken slab should be leveled or replaced before it becomes a trip hazard.
Flaking driveway surfaces show the weak top layer of old, sun-baked concrete. A flaking driveway should be resurfaced before water gets under the chips.
