Cost to Repair Concrete Driveway
When it comes to repairing a concrete driveway, professional installation is always the best option. Heavy-duty machinery is usually required for the job. The repair may even necessitate the use of poured concrete. Typically, contractors will not charge for providing an estimate for concrete repairs. Professionals assess the extent of the damage and determine whether it is more cost-effective to replace rather than repair. Many concrete repair jobs range between $2.00 and $4.00 per square foot. Contractors may charge an hourly rate ranging from $65 to $85 per hour.

The cost rises if specialized materials, such as imprinted or stamped concrete are used on the driveway. Instead of $2.00 to $4.00 per square foot, costs can reach $7.00 or more. Resurfacing jobs are typically completed in a single day, whereas resealing jobs take two to four hours on average for standard-size driveways. In most cases, the driveway is unusable for at least two days after the job is completed.
 

Factors Influencing the Cost of Concrete Driveway Repair
Keep in mind that the cost of a concrete driveway repair is determined by the type of driveway you have and its square footage. Properties with extremely long driveways will require more money to repair than a two-car standard driveway. Before a contractor provides an estimate, the following are the top cost considerations.

• Size. The total cost of the project is determined by calculating the square footage of the damaged area.

• The type of repair.  Small patches are less expensive to install than resurfacing projects. Contractors will provide you with an estimate that includes the materials needed for the job as well as the labor hours.

• Driveway age. Tree roots, erosion, and concrete disintegration can all cause extensive damage to older driveways.

• Problems with drainage. The landscape around the driveway is evaluated to ensure that the repairs will not cause moisture buildup and exacerbate future problems.

• Leveling. The cost of driveway repairs may be affected by leveling issues. For example, if the driveway is sloped, the job may necessitate more time or materials to complete.
