Understanding Concrete Repair in Maryland: Common Issues and Solutions

Concrete is one of the most durable and cost-effective building materials, but it’s not immune to wear and tear. Whether you're dealing with cracks, potholes, or surface damage, concrete repair in Maryland is essential for ensuring the safety and longevity of your structure. Aurora Paving & Concrete is here to help you understand the common issues that can occur and how they can be repaired.

• Cracks in Concrete
  Concrete cracks are a common problem that can arise for a variety of reasons, including settling foundations, temperature changes, or excessive weight. In Maryland, where the climate fluctuates from hot summers to cold winters, concrete can contract and expand, leading to cracks.
  
  
• Spalling Concrete
  Concrete spalling occurs when the surface of the concrete begins to flake or peel away. This typically happens due to moisture entering the concrete, causing it to freeze and expand during the winter months.
  
  
• Potholes
  Potholes in concrete driveways or sidewalks are not only unsightly but also hazardous. These often form after prolonged exposure to water, freezing, and thawing cycles, which are common in Maryland’s seasonal changes.

• Crack Filling and Sealing
  One of the most effective solutions for cracks in concrete is filling and sealing. The repair involves using specialized sealants that prevent moisture from penetrating and causing further damage. Aurora Paving & Concrete offers top-notch crack filling services to restore the structural integrity of your concrete surfaces.
  
  
• Concrete Resurfacing
  When spalling or surface damage is widespread, concrete resurfacing may be the best solution. This process involves applying a thin layer of fresh concrete over the existing surface to restore its smoothness and appearance.
  
  
• Pothole Repair
  Potholes can be repaired by removing the damaged concrete, filling the area with new material, and ensuring proper compaction. Our team at Aurora Paving & Concrete specializes in pothole repair and resurfacing, restoring your concrete surfaces to their original condition.
