Concrete Contractors Seattle WaConcrete can not only be a porous material, but it can also be temperamental. Depending on the conditions in which it was poured, the mixture that was used and even how much was used can all play an important role in how your concrete steps, retaining wall, or even concrete sidewalk hold up to the elements.
As a material with a great compaction value, concrete has mass and weight, and with that weight comes shifting. It is not uncommon for the weight newly poured to a freshly excavated piece of land to settle and crack. Luck for you we do concrete crack repair! |
When performing concrete repair, Seattle has some of the best local concrete contractors. When pricing out the cost of a fix, most concrete companies will have very different prices because they are going to have very different scopes of work. We always suggest to our clients that they make sure they are getting an apples to apples comparison for concrete repair. Seattle is know for it's hot summers and it is not unusual for certain types of mixtures to no adhere well when poured on a particularly hot day. As concrete dries out this really opens up any weaknesses in the slab. These cracks will erode over time and begin to chip away. When repairing foundations this can be of the utmost importance to keep the slab your home was built on safe from any more structural damage.

Concrete Cracks
This includes not only surface cracks, but sometimes we can spot cracks within the structure, for foundations this can be the difference between extended life or failure. There are essentially two types of cracks, the first is non-working cracks; these are cracks that are only surface deep, they can be resurfaced, grouted and skim coated to get a good finished product. The other kind is working cracks, these cracks are actively pulling apart and may require expansion joints to account for load and heaving.
Holes
Small holes, craters and pits can be covered up or they can be masked with something as simple as an overlay. This decision to cover up this surface deep flaw can be dependent on how deep the holes may be. Some concrete floors may need to be grinded down before they can be have epoxy applied to them. Sometimes they may even require two pours, one to top off and level the holes, and the second to develop the smooth surface with your choice of dye or stamp or any other concrete finish.

Concrete over time has the tendency to discolor, especially when outside and exposed to the Washington sun. We use different bases depending on the desired outcome, a coating of acid or water based stain will work wonders for any old concrete patio. When performing concrete repair, Seattle is going to be different than other places if only because the sun exposure.
