Is it better to resurface or replace concrete?

When it comes to your concrete, there are two options: resurface or replace. Before you make a decision on which option is the best for you, we want to help you understand what each solution entails and how they can benefit your home or business.

Is it Better to Resurface or Replace Concrete?

The answer is it depends on the condition of your concrete. If it’s in good shape, resurfacing is a much cheaper option than replacing. However, if your concrete is in poor condition, resurfacing might not be an option at all and you’ll have to replace the entire surface instead.

Resurfacing kits are available for most surfaces including driveways, sidewalks and patio floors but not all types of surfaces can be resurfaced successfully. If you want to know more about this process before trying it yourself then speak with an expert about what options are available for your needs - such as having a professional come out and do it for you or buying a kit online so that they can give instructions on how best use them (or both).

The Lifespan of Resurfaced Concrete

Concrete resurfacing is a cost-effective way to extend the life of your concrete. This can be an option for you if you want to change the color of your concrete and have a small area to cover, or if you’re looking for an alternative that doesn’t require removing all of the old material.

If you require more than just new color or texture, however, concrete replacement may be a better solution for your project. In most cases, resurfacing will only last about five years or less before cracks start forming again and other problems begin to arise.

The Process of Replacing Concrete

The process of replacing concrete is similar to that of resurfacing. However, there are some differences:
  • Remove old concrete and debris
  • Prepare the area for new concrete installation (e.g., leveling, compacting soil)
  • Finish the surface by sweeping it with a broom or rake, brushing it with an edger tool and sweeping again until smooth, then adding any finishing touches as desired (e.g., colored stains)
  • Clean up all tools, material and debris before leaving site

Either option is a smart choice for your project, as long as you hire the right team to do the work.

Whether you choose to resurface or replace, hiring the right team is crucial to getting the best results. The project should be done by professionals who know what they’re doing and can answer any questions you have about the process. 

It’s also important for business or homeowners to understand how much it costs for resurfacing versus replacing concrete. While both options will require payment for labor, materials, equipment and taxes; generally speaking, resurfacing costs less than replacement because there are fewer instances where new material needs to be brought in on-site (e.g., crushed stone). However, this doesn’t mean that either option won’t be expensive! Hiring an experienced company with expertise in both types of jobs will help keep costs down while still providing excellent results.

Additionally--and perhaps most importantly--it’s vital that business or homeowners understand all aspects related not just during but also after completing any given job (such as warranty information).

Conclusion

At the end of the day, it’s not just about resurfacing or replacing concrete. It’s about finding a surface that will last for years to come and doing what it takes to make sure that happens.
