Concrete Patio Repair in Ann Arbor, MI
Concrete patio repair addresses the settlement, cracking, and surface breakdown that happens when a patio slab is exposed to Michigan weather for years without maintenance. Patios often show problems before driveways do because they were typically poured thinner and over less compacted fill. A settled corner that drains toward the house is a foundation concern, not just an eyesore. We fix the underlying settlement and restore the surface where the concrete is still structurally worth keeping.

When to Call
When You Need Concrete Patio Repair
- One corner of the patio has dropped and now drains toward the back door threshold
- Cracks have opened wide enough that weeds are growing through them every season
- The surface is scaling and flaking badly after years of freeze-thaw without sealing
- Your patio slab has separated from the house foundation wall and water gets behind it
How It Works
Our Process for Concrete Patio Repair
- 1
Drainage and Settlement Check
We check how water moves across the patio surface and identify settled sections before doing anything cosmetic. Drainage problems drive most patio failures.
- 2
Crack and Joint Assessment
We categorize cracks by whether they are surface-only or full depth. Full-depth cracks and movement joints both need different treatment than surface crazing.
- 3
Lift and Stabilize
Settled sections are lifted and the void beneath is filled so the slab sits on solid support again. We do not resurface over a slab that is still moving.
- 4
Surface Restoration
Once the slab is stable, surface damage is addressed with appropriate repair material. We match texture where possible so the patch does not look worse than the original damage.
Ann Arbor Context
Why this matters in Ann Arbor
Many Ann Arbor homes built in the 1960s through 1980s have patios poured over backfill that has been slowly compressing for decades. Combined with how wet springs can be here, those slabs shift significantly and need periodic attention to keep drainage away from the home.
Straight Talk
About pricing & scope
A patio that was poured on poorly compacted fill over a basement backfill zone is harder to stabilize than one over undisturbed soil. We factor that into the scope honestly. Surface repairs on top of ongoing settlement do not hold.
