CRACKS, SPALLING & CONCRETE REPAIRS
We cut it out, work out what caused it, fix that, then make the patch disappear under the finish. No skim coat over a live crack, no painted-over pitting that comes back the first wet summer.
And if the slab is beyond saving — heaving, lost its base, broken into pieces that move independently — we will say so. Covering that up is money you would be throwing away.

What you get
DONE PROPERLY, START TO FINISH
Most repairs we do are cosmetic and cheap. The ones that get expensive are the ones somebody already patched twice without asking why it kept coming back.
- +Hairline, shrinkage and settlement cracks cut and stitched
- +Spalled and pitted surfaces rebuilt with repair mortar
- +Exposed, rusting reinforcement treated before patching
- +Patches blended so they disappear under the finish
- +Honest advice when replacement is the cheaper answer

REPAIRS & SPALLING QUESTIONS
The questions we get asked on the driveway about this one. Anything else, ring us — you will get a person.
ASK US — 0404 859 045
Can every crack be repaired?
Nearly all of them. What matters is whether the crack is still moving. Dormant cracks get cut out and filled; live ones need the cause fixed first, or stitching so the movement is shared.
Will the repair be visible?
On bare concrete a good patch is visible but tidy — colour never matches perfectly. If you want it gone completely, we resurface the area over the repair and the patch disappears.
When is replacing cheaper than repairing?
When the slab is heaving, has lost the base under it, or has broken into sections moving independently. Past that point every repair is temporary and you are paying twice.
