What Is The Average Cost To Repair A Driveway?

If your driveway is cracked, sinking, lifted, or crumbling, you may be wondering how much it will cost to repair or replace it. In Houston, driveway repair costs vary depending on factors like damage severity, concrete thickness, and accessibility.

When we go to a residential property for concrete repair or replacement work, we bring our entire crew—the same team that works on everything from parking lot installations to foundation slabs. We do not offer patchwork, concrete leveling or mudjacking; instead, we completely remove damaged concrete and pour new, reinforced material. We replace sections or the entire driveway to ensure long-term, high-quality results. Continue reading to learn about the factors that influence driveway repair costs, the specifics of our process, and what to expect when working with us.

Factors That Influence Driveway Repair Costs

The cost of repairing or replacing a driveway depends on several key factors:
– Extent of Damage – Small cracks or surface wear may not require full replacement, but crumbling, lifting, or sinking sections will need removal and re-pouring.
– Driveway Size – Larger driveways require more materials and labor, increasing the overall cost.
– Concrete Thickness & Rebar Reinforcement – We pour 4-inch thick slabs for standard residential driveways and use #3 rebar for reinforcement, ensuring strength and durability. Remember that the concrete strength you select—for example, 3000 psi (pounds per square inch) versus 4000 psi—will affect the overall price, as higher psi mixes are more expensive but also more durable, meaning they last longer.
– Accessibility & Permits – If your driveway is difficult to access or requires a permit for replacement, this may add to the overall project cost.
– Hauling & Disposal of Old Concrete – Removing the damaged sections requires breaking up and hauling away old debris, which is factored into the estimate.

Our Driveway Repair Process

Jerson’s Concrete does not provide temporary fixes such as patching cracks or resurfacing damaged areas. Instead, we completely remove the damaged or aged concrete and replace it with new, reinforced concrete to ensure a long-term solution.

1. Breaking Up the Damaged Concrete

If your driveway has cracks, is lifting, or is sinking, our crew will use a concrete breaker to remove the damaged sections. We focus on breaking up the concrete between expansion joints, ensuring a clean and precise removal process.

2. Hauling Away Debris

Once the damaged concrete is removed, we haul away all debris, keeping the site clean and ready for new work.

3. Pouring New Concrete with Reinforcement

We pour new 4-inch-thick concrete slabs, reinforced with #4 rebar to ensure structural strength and longevity.

4. Finishing with a Professional Broom Finish

Once poured, we finish the concrete with a broom-swept surface for optimal traction and a clean, professional look. The edges are smoothed for a polished, finished appearance.
