Racine Concrete Contractors for Driveways, Walks and Slab Repair

On the blocks around the Racine Zoo and across the city, a walk that has started to sink or a driveway panel that has heaved costs less to lift or patch now than to tear out later. We pour new concrete and fix the slabs you have.

Estimates cost nothing and commit you to nothing; miss us and we ring back before the working day ends.

The short answer

Concrete contractors in Racine

Sophisticated Concrete pours new slabs in Racine and repairs, levels and resurfaces old ones, for homes and businesses on both banks of the Root River.

Racine is part of the area we cover from Kenosha, and a job here gets the same terms as one at home: we come out and measure, quote the whole job before we start, and clean up when the work is done. Whether it is a new driveway or a walk that has dropped at one end, call and we will tell you plainly what it needs.

Concrete jobs for Racine owners

In Racine we pour new driveways, patios and front walks, and we repair, level and resurface slabs that are already down. Each kind of job we take on, tile by tile:

  • Driveways

    Torn out, graded and poured over a compacted gravel base, sloped so water runs off the slab and not under it.

  • Walks and sidewalks

    Front walks, side walks and public sidewalk panels, cut out at the joints so the new pour meets a clean edge.

  • Patios

    New and replacement patios with a broom finish for grip, sized to the yard and the way you use it.

  • Stamped finishes

    "Stamped concrete", patterned and colored to look like stone, tile or slate, on patios, walks and drives.

  • Garage slabs

    Garage and pad slabs poured to carry what parks on them, with the cut lines placed where cracks should go.

  • Concrete repair

    Cracked, chipped and flaking concrete repaired once we know what caused it, so the fix holds through spring.

  • Leveling

    Dropped stoops, walk panels and slabs pumped back up with foam or "mudjacking" instead of being broken out.

  • Resurfacing

    A bonded "overlay" over a worn or scaled slab that is still sound underneath, finished and sealed.

Unsure if your slab wants patching or a fresh pour? We will tell you on the visit.Call for an Estimate

Ground and winter

Concrete built for Racine winters and ground

Concrete in Racine is poured, drained and sealed to survive lakeshore winters and the clay-heavy ground under it.

The soil across Racine County drains slowly. Water that gets under a slab stays there, freezes, and pushes the slab up, then lets it settle unevenly when it thaws, which is how a walk ends up with a trip edge or a driveway panel tips toward the house.

The median home in Racine was built in 1953, so plenty of the stoops, walks and driveways beside them have taken decades of that cycle, with de-icing salt on top. That is why the "scaling" and sunken panels we see here are rarely just a surface problem.

Before the job

A question Racine owners ask

The question we hear first from Racine owners is how to get a job booked, and the answer is below.

Booking concrete work in Racine

Phone us with the job in Racine, and we book a visit to look at it and then hand you a written estimate. After that first call, the steps go like this:

  1. You call us

    Tell us where the concrete is and what it is doing, or what you want poured.

  2. We come and look

    The estimate starts on site: we measure, go over the look you want and ask what the concrete has to carry.

  3. The estimate lands in writing

    Every line of the job is priced before work begins, nothing gets added later, and once you sign off we arrive on the day we gave you.

FAQ

Hiring a concrete contractor

How to find a good concrete contractor?

Pick one who comes out to see the job before pricing it, quotes the whole job in writing before starting, and answers the phone. Ask what goes under the slab and where the water will drain, because the base and the slope matter as much as the concrete. Our own promises are listed here, and you can hold us to each one.

Got concrete in Racine that needs work?

Ring us about the sinking walk, the cracked drive or the patio you have in mind. We measure it on site and put the whole price in writing before a pour date is set.

The estimate is free and carries no obligation, and we arrive when we say we will.
