Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycles destroy concrete faster than most states. Before we coat any floor, we address underlying damage with proven repair methods. Our process varies by neighborhood - in St. Paul's historic districts, we use lime-based patching compounds to match original mixes, while Maple Grove's newer developments receive polymer-modified repairs.
For frost heaves common in Plymouth, we install flexible control joints that move with seasonal ground shifts. Spiderweb cracks in Bloomington garages get stabilized with epoxy injections that prevent moisture intrusion. Every repair includes moisture testing and pH balancing to ensure long-term adhesion of subsequent coatings. We even offer slab leveling for sunken basement floors in Minneapolis' clay-rich soils.

Our Process
- 01 Step 1: Structural assessment with borescope imaging
- 02 Step 2: Removal of unsound concrete
- 03 Step 3: Application of bonding agent
- 04 Step 4: Placement of repair material matched to existing slab
Benefits
- Prevents coating failures at cracks
- Restores load-bearing capacity
- Mitigates trip hazards
- Extends slab lifespan by 15+ years
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you repair garage floor spalling?
Yes - we replace deteriorated concrete with a steel-reinforced polymer concrete that withstands salt corrosion better than original material.
Do repairs qualify for homeowners insurance?
Many policies cover our structural repairs when damage stems from freeze cycles or plumbing leaks - we provide documentation for claims.
