Local Conditions
Why Does Concrete Fail on Allerton Properties?
Concrete in Allerton usually fails from water, weak bases and heavy loads. Many lots here hold a driveway, a side yard and a rear patio, and each one handles water and weight differently. Slabs that were poured thin or on loose fill crack and settle.
Allerton has attached and semi detached brick houses, detached frame houses and low rise apartment buildings. The house lots are often narrow, so a side path runs close to the wall of the neighboring home. When that path slopes toward a foundation, rain has nowhere to go.
Winter makes it worse. Water in a hairline crack freezes, expands and opens the crack wider. After a few seasons a small crack becomes a broken panel with a lip that catches your foot.
On an apartment property, the entrance path and the service walk behind the building see constant use. Those slabs wear at the edges and break down where carts, bins and deliveries pass.
How Is Old Concrete Replaced?
We saw cut the edges, break out the old slab and haul it away. Then we grade and compact the base, set forms, pour new concrete and finish the surface. The slope is set so water moves away from your foundation and does not sit on the slab.
Before pouring, we look at what failed. If the old slab sank because the base washed out, a new pour on the same base will sink again. We fix the base first, and the estimate says what that involves.
Repair or replace?
A panel with a few hairline cracks may only need sealing. A panel that is heaved, crumbling or pitched toward the house is better replaced. We tell you which one applies to each part of your property, and you decide.
Work next to the sidewalk
If your new concrete meets the public sidewalk, the two surfaces have to line up. Anything on the public sidewalk generally needs a DOT permit, and we file it. Work entirely on your private property does not need the DOT sidewalk permit, though structural work or retaining walls can bring DOB permits.
Tell us which slabs are cracked and we will price the removal and the new pour together.

What Affects Concrete Replacement Cost in Allerton?
Area to replace
Cost follows the square footage of concrete that comes out and goes back in.
Access
A narrow side yard limits equipment. Hand work takes longer than machine work.
Base condition
A soft or washed out base needs more material before the pour.
Thickness and finish
A slab that carries a car is thicker than a walkway. The finish also changes the work.
Every property is different, so we price after a visit. Your written estimate lists the area, the base work and the finish.
