## Why Toronto Concrete Breaks Down

Toronto concrete faces two enemies: **de-icing salt** and **freeze-thaw**. Salt draws water into the surface, and each freeze pops off a thin layer. That is **scaling**. Deeper down, water and chlorides reach the steel, causing **rebar corrosion**. Rust expands and breaks the concrete above it, which is **spalling**.

## Concrete Repairs We Do

| Problem | Repair | Cause we fix first |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Surface scaling | Grind, bond and resurface or patch with freeze-thaw rated mortar | De-icing salt and poor surface finishing |
| Spalled wall or slab edge | Cut back, treat rebar, form and place repair concrete | Rebar corrosion from water and chlorides |
| Random cracks | Rout and seal, or inject structural cracks | Shrinkage, settlement or missing joints |
| Heaved slabs and trip hazards | Grind, lift or replace sections | Frost heave, tree roots or a washed-out base |
| Missing control joints | Saw-cut joints to control future cracking | Joints left out or cut too shallow when poured |

## Repair or Replace?

> **Our rule of thumb**
> 
> If damage is shallow and covers less than about a third of a slab, repair is good value. If the slab is heaving, broken through or mostly failing, we will tell you replacement is the better spend.

Codes + Standards

## Which Codes and Standards Apply to Concrete Repair in Toronto?

Toronto masonry is regulated work. These are the rules we build to on every concrete repair job, and why they matter to you.

### Air-Entrained Concrete

Microscopic air bubbles give water room to expand when it freezes, resisting scaling.

### Bonding Agents

Bonding agents improve adhesion between old concrete and new repair material.

### Control Joints

Joints cut at the right spacing make cracks happen in a straight line, not randomly.

5-Stage Process

## How Does Our Concrete Repair Process Work?

Timeline: 1-4 days plus curing. Each stage lines up with a draw on your fixed-price contract, so you only pay for work that is done.

Proven Results Across Toronto

## What Customers Say About Our Concrete Repair Work

> "Bricks were spalling above our second-floor windows and pieces were landing on the walkway. Marty pulled the scaffold permit, replaced the damaged brick with reclaimed units that match the Annex red, and had a BCIN qualified review of the lintel before closing it up. Written quote, fixed price, no surprises."

Hannah W.The Annex$4.3KSpalled Brick Replacement

> "We wanted to paint our tired 1920s brick and expected a contractor to just roll it. Instead Toronto Elite told us which bricks were already spalling, replaced them, repointed the worst joints and recommended a breathable limewash rather than latex paint so the wall could still dry out. They showed us test patches in two tones before committing. Two years in, no peeling and no new spalls, and the house looks the way we pictured it."

Tom G.Riverdale$7.2KBrick Repair + Limewash Coating

> "Our house sits in the Cabbagetown Heritage Conservation District and two other masons told us approvals were our problem. Toronto Elite Masonry's expeditor filed the Heritage Preservation submission, Marty mixed three lime mortar samples on a test panel and the city signed off on the first one. The front elevation now looks like 1885 again, and the recipe is on file for next time."

Questions We Hear Every Week

## Concrete Repair FAQs

How much does concrete repair cost in Toronto?

Concrete repair in Toronto typically costs $800 to $15,000, depending on area, depth, rebar damage and access.

Why is my concrete flaking?

Scaling is usually caused by de-icing salt and freeze-thaw on concrete that was not air-entrained or was finished poorly. We repair with freeze-thaw rated materials.

Should I repair or replace my concrete?

If damage is shallow and limited, repair is good value. If the slab is heaving, broken through or more than about a third is failing, replacement is usually better.

Can you fix trip hazards?

Yes. Heaved sections can be ground, lifted or replaced to remove trip hazards.

What is spalling in concrete?

Spalling is when pieces of concrete break off, often because rebar inside has rusted and expanded, or water has frozen in the surface.

Should I seal my concrete?

A penetrating sealer helps resist salt and water on walkways and driveways. We advise based on the surface.

How long before I can walk on repaired concrete?

Usually 24 to 48 hours for foot traffic, longer for vehicles.

Do you resurface concrete?

Yes, on sound slabs. See concrete resurfacing.
