Driveway Resurfacing Las Vegas, NV

In today’s paving market, the variety of options keep on increasing. Although often used as a sub-base, concrete is now a viable alternative to appealing but expensive paving materials. It has reached the status of being an impressive aesthetic enhancement to, not only the garage or basement but to all other concrete surfaces in Las Vegas, Nevada, residential or commercial property. As a concrete driveway, it has become an ideal alternative to asphalt.

Driveway Problems & Repair Solutions

The concrete driveway is always exposed to Las Vegas weather and temperature changes. It gets rained on, is exposed to UV rays, and more. The most common issues that concrete driveways encounters are:

Cracks

Concrete is not flexible so you best believe that it could crack once it is exposed to pressure or impact. While cracks look terrible, they can easily be filled in. However, working cracks need a different solution. Working cracks are those that recur, often caused by regular movement underneath the slab, either by soil or water. Instead of filling it in, the concrete is scored, incorporating the crack into the design. This way, the slab is free to move without creating new cracks.

Spalling

Spall offs are often caused by freeze-thaw damage. During winter, when snow and ice occur more often, most homeowners use deicing salts on their concrete driveways for added traction. This could actually weaken the concrete and cause water to enter the slab. The water freezes and thaws repetitively within the slab, breaking the concrete into pieces. The most common indication that a driveway is suffering from spalling is a brittle surface with bits of concrete breaking loose. This can be resolved with a resurfacing overlay and a good sealer.

Discoloration

Concrete has the tendency to discolor as it ages. Although this is superficial, it can affect curb appeal and property resale value. Another way concrete can get discolored is when it gets stained. An ideal solution is to stain the surface to cover up the discolored areas and to give the driveway a whole new look. Driveway resealing in Las Vegas Nevada is highly recommended to eliminate porosity.

Driveway Resurfacing and Refinishing Options

However, driveway resurfacing and refinishing work are effective solutions to most types of damage repair. It effectively restores concrete driveways while giving them a new look, better function, and a longer lifespan.

Stamped Concrete Overlay

Stamped concrete is a cementitious overlay that is great for covering up minor surface damage on a concrete driveway. Many driveway owners opt for this overlay because of the wide selection of patterns available, such as brick, flagstone, ashlar, travertine, fractured slate, and more.

Stained Concrete

Driveway staining is highly recommended for covering up stubborn oil or grease stains. It can also be used as an additional enhancement for resurfaced concrete floors. It can make natural stone patterns look more realistic by adding vibrant colors.

Spray Knockdown Texture

Although popular for use on pool decks, this troweled concrete finish can also be used on other outdoor decorative concrete surfaces, like the driveway. It features a unique texture that is absolutely slip-resistant. The cool surface helps keep rubber tires from melting, especially in super hot summers.
