Removal & Installation
Failed concrete taken out, the ground underneath corrected, and new concrete installed properly, for driveways, commercial flatwork and parking areas across Greater Cincinnati.
Remove & Repour
Concrete rarely fails because of the concrete. It fails because the base under it washed out, was never compacted properly, or has had water sitting in it for years. Resurfacing, lifting or overlaying leaves all of that in place and simply hides it until it comes back.
Affinity removes the failed concrete, corrects what is underneath, and pours new. It is more work up front than a surface fix, and it is the reason the replacement does not become an annual line item.
The Scope
01
Concrete that has scaled, settled or cracked through gets broken out full depth. Work is cut back to a clean edge against whatever is staying, so the new pour has a straight joint to tie into rather than a ragged break.
02
Broken concrete is loaded and hauled off rather than stockpiled somewhere on the property. On an occupied commercial site that matters as much as the concrete work, because the lot has to stay usable while the job runs.
03
This is the step that separates a replacement from a repeat. The exposed sub-base gets inspected, soft material is dug out, stone is brought in and the whole area is re-compacted before anything is poured back.
04
New concrete goes in at the thickness the use calls for, tied to the existing grade so water still runs where it should, jointed to match the surrounding layout and finished to sit flush with the work around it.
Preparation
Once the pour is finished, every contractor's work looks about the same. The difference shows up in year four, and it was decided during the day spent on the base: digging out what was soft, bringing in stone, and compacting it before forming.
