Repair can fit localized damage
Small defects, isolated cracks or damaged edges may justify a targeted repair when the surrounding concrete is stable.
Replacement fits broader failure
Large settled areas, repeated movement, extensive deterioration or poor drainage can make piecemeal repairs less attractive.
Resurfacing sits in the middle
A stable slab with widespread cosmetic wear may be a resurfacing candidate, but surface treatments should not be used to hide active structural problems.
Get the whole driveway assessed
An on-site review helps separate cosmetic issues from base, drainage or movement problems.
Frequently asked questions
Is one crack enough to replace a driveway?
Usually not by itself. Crack pattern, width, movement and surrounding condition matter.
Can just one driveway section be replaced?
Often, yes, if panel boundaries and surrounding conditions make a partial replacement practical.
