Why would someone want to resurface concrete versus replacement?
The benefit of resurfacing is instead of just fixing a problem like cracking, pitting or damage from mold you can make a home improvement. Right now if you have concrete that’s cracked or un-level, you can repair or replace it with new concrete, but you’ll just have new concrete. It doesn’t increase the curb appeal of your home. It doesn’t increase the value of your home. With resurfacing, we add design and we carve the cracks into the existing pattern after we repair them, so you’ve got something that looks like you spent money to do a home improvement and not just a home repair. That makes it more valuable financially and aesthetically.

Why do you use polymer cements?
Our polymer cements are the best alternative for exterior projects because they resist erosion. Applied properly, they do not peel, flake or delaminate. They are absorbed into the existing concrete, grow spines that expand creating a new cement surface that is incredibly durable as well as stain and chemical resistant.  

How long does your work last?
Resurfacing has been around since the 1960s. It is not new technology but I have personally had jobs down for over 25 years in South Jersey. We offer a two-year warranty that can be extended. If the bond is done properly, it will last a lifetime with some routine resealing maintenance.
