Concrete Crack Repair Surrey — Fix It Before the Floor Fails

Structural and cosmetic crack repair for slabs, driveways, basements, and commercial floors before polishing or coating.

(604) 800-4556

Cracks in a concrete floor are normal — but left untreated, they grow. Water enters a crack, freezes in BC winters, and forces it wider. A cosmetic crack becomes a structural issue. A hairline crack under an epoxy coating telegraphs through the finish within months. Proper crack repair before any floor treatment is the difference between a floor that lasts 30 years and one that fails in three. We repair cracks correctly — matching the filler material to the crack type and the finish system going over top.

What's Included

Crack mapping and classification — active vs dormant, structural vs cosmetic, through-slab vs surface
Epoxy injection for structural cracks that require load transfer re-establishment
Semi-rigid polyurea fill for cracks subject to thermal movement and vehicle crossing
Rigid epoxy grout for cosmetic and non-moving cracks under polish finishes
Crack routing and cleaning before fill for maximum adhesion
Colour-matched fills for decorative surfaces where the repair needs to blend
Caulk or backer rod and sealant for expansion joints
Post-repair grinding to flush the repair with the surrounding slab

When You Need This Service

1

You have cracks in your garage slab or basement floor that are growing year on year

2

You want to polish or coat the floor but the cracks need to be fixed first so they do not telegraph through

3

Your driveway has a settlement crack that is becoming a trip hazard or allowing water to undermine the base

4

Your commercial floor has joint damage from forklift traffic that is creating unsafe edges

5

Your strata or property management inspection flagged cracks in the parkade or underground slab

Our Process

1

Crack Inspection and Classification

We probe cracks with a feeler gauge, tap the surrounding area for delamination, and photograph each one. We classify each crack as active, dormant, structural, or cosmetic to determine the right repair method.

2

Crack Preparation

Each crack is blown clean with compressed air, wire-brushed, and if necessary routed to a consistent width for proper filler depth. Loose concrete edges are ground smooth.

3

Filler Application

Structural cracks get low-viscosity epoxy injected under pressure so it fills the full depth. Moving cracks get semi-rigid polyurea that flows in and cures flexible. Cosmetic cracks get rigid epoxy or tinted grout.

4

Feather and Grind

Once cured, all repairs are ground flush with the surrounding slab. Colour-matched topping may be applied over repairs in decorative areas.

5

Documentation

We photograph every repair before and after. If a structural crack repair is involved, we provide a written report you can include in your building records.

Concrete Polishing Questions

The questions we get most often. If yours isn't here, give us a call.

How long does concrete polishing take in Surrey?
Most residential jobs — a garage, basement, or kitchen floor — take one to two days. Commercial floors are phased over multiple shifts. The exact timeline depends on the size of the slab and the finish level you choose.
How much does concrete polishing cost in Surrey, BC?
Pricing depends on the size, condition, and finish level. Residential floors typically range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars for a full polish. Commercial floors are priced per square foot. We provide written quotes with no obligation — call or fill out the form and we'll come out and measure.
Can you polish concrete floors in a condo or apartment?
Yes. We use dust-free grinding equipment with HEPA-filtered vacuums that capture concrete particles at the source. This makes polishing practical in occupied buildings, strata complexes, and residential highrise units where traditional grinding would be prohibited.
What is the difference between polished concrete and epoxy flooring?
Polished concrete is the slab itself — mechanically refined to a smooth, dense surface. Epoxy is a coating applied on top of the concrete. Polished floors look more natural and never peel. Epoxy coatings are thicker, can add colour flake for grip, and are great for garages and commercial kitchens where chemical resistance is the priority.
Will polished concrete be slippery when wet?
A well-specified polished concrete floor with the right sealer is not significantly more slippery than tile. We recommend adding anti-slip aggregate to the sealer topcoat in wet areas like bathrooms, commercial kitchens, and exterior patios. We will discuss the right slip-resistance rating for your space during the quote.
Can you polish over existing concrete that has tiles or carpet glue on it?
Yes. Grinding removes old adhesives, thin-set mortar, glue-down carpet, and most coatings. Some adhesives require multiple grinding passes with aggressive tooling, but there is almost no substrate we cannot prepare. We assess the condition of the slab before quoting so there are no surprises.
