Concrete Repair
Concrete is a great versatile material. In its most basic form, concrete is made from cement, aggregate, sand, and water. Known for its durability, and long lifespan concrete requires less maintenance than asphalt. Although concrete is used in everything from roads, parking lots sidewalks, and floors, it is not completely resistant to damage or needing repair.
Johan offers concrete services in Chicago Illinois and the surrounding area.
Crack repair
As concrete ages, externals factors such as traffic, the elements, and chemicals begin to undermine the integrity of the material, which can lead to cracking and irregularities.
Concrete Lifting
Do you have uneven concrete slabs? Is it a trip hazard? Perhaps you are afraid it is going to get worse and need replacement?
Uneven or sunken concrete can cause you, or visitors to your house, to trip and fall. Not to mention how irritating it can be to have to constantly watch your step or stumble. These hazards can lead to minor, and sometimes, major injury. We are sure you do not want this for yourself, your family or your friends that come to visit.

Frequently Asked
Questions
Concrete vs Cement?
Cement is an ingredient used to make concrete. The cement is what reacts to the water in the mix and become the glue of the cement, holding it together and making it strong.
How can I fix a damaged concrete foundation?
Typically, you need a contractor for foundation repair. If there are visible cracks in your concrete, or you notice uneven floors or separation around doors and windows, the damage is substantial enough to consult with a professional..
Can cracked or eroded concrete stairs be repaired or should they be replaced?
Patch cracked stairs with a crack filler. If large chunks of concrete are crumbling away, remove the damaged sections and use a quick setting filler that can be molded and shaped.
What causes concrete settlement and damage?
Driveways, walkways and sidewalks are exposed to a lot of wear and tear. When the soil supporting it becomes weak or a void is formed, concrete slabs can crack and sink. There are many things that can create a void beneath a concrete slab, such as erosion from rainwater or gutter runoff, or a tree root that has rotted over time. Clogged gutters, downspouts that are not installed correctly, and poor yard drainage can make erosion worse. Dirt fill underneath the slab that has not been well compacted can also create voids beneath concrete.
What kind of caulking do you use for concrete repairs?
We use NexusPro silicone-based sealant to fill and seal cracks and control joints after lifting and leveling the concrete steps with PolyLevel. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro resists UV rays, which means it won’t crack, bubble or dry. Plus, the drying time is a fraction of that needed for other urethane-based caulking products, and it’s been proven to last more than twice as long.
What kinds of concrete cracks can be repaired with caulking?
We can repair small and mid-size cracks with NexusPro silicone-based caulking sealant. During installation, we prepare and clean the concrete cracks, insert the product and then finish it off with native sand to give the whole surface a clean, finished look.
