About Our Concrete Resurfacing Services
Concrete resurfacing refers to removing the top layer of a concrete surface, sealing off minor cracks, and creating a new surface without replacing the whole cover. A resurfacing material that looks and acts as normal concrete is used, and some special bonding agents are added to allow it to form a connection with the existing concrete. This ensures that a strong and cohesive surface is created in the process.
One major benefit of resurfacing concrete is that a resurfaced surface can extend for another 15 years before developing another crack. If it is done well and by a competent contractor, you will not need to replace your driveway or patio surface because of some ugly patches that keep reappearing. Get Hayward Concrete and Masonry to do the work for you and enjoy service with a difference.
Hayward Concrete and Masonry is here to offer you concrete resurfacing services as may be needed. Concrete resurfacing is the preferred method of giving the concrete a new face by rehabilitating its tone because there is no need for reconstructing the whole structure, thereby spending less on it. Before we resurface your concrete surfaces, however, we ensure to evaluate them well to ascertain that it was the right call.
Our resurfacing options include:
- Bonded Resurfacing: With bonded resurfacing, plain cement concrete slurry or grout are used for bonding the old and new layer. To make the concrete mix, Portland cement and water are used.
- Unbonded Resurfacing: This method is preferable in areas where the underlying layer is too weak and highly distressed.
The Process
The common steps to concrete resurfacing are:
- Cleaning: where the old surface is washed using a power washer to clear grime and dirt.
- Repairing the cracks then follows with priming the cracks, reinforcing the fabric, and then covering it with polymer concrete.
- Repairing the holes with epoxy mortar.
- Covering the surface follows once all the repairs are done, and the surface is primed and covered with the resurfacer or primer concrete.
- Coloring and sealing then follow. Decorative coloring can be applied if one desires, so while a seal coat may also be applied to protect the new surface.
- After all the steps, it is time for curing, which may be between 48-72 hours to ensure that the surface dries up completely.

- Address discoloration
