What we do in Pickering
Every concrete surface, one contractor
From a single cracked step to a full driveway rebuild — repair, resurface or replace, whichever yours actually needs.

Cracked, sunken or flaking — repaired where the base is sound, replaced where it's failed.
Porches & Steps
Spalled edges, loose railings, unsafe treads. Repaired in a day or rebuilt to shape.
Resurfacing & Overlays
Worn but sound concrete made new — no demolition, a fraction of a rebuild.

Dusting slabs and damp entrances — repaired, sealed, polished or coated.
Graniflex System
A 10-year-warranty resurfacing system built for Durham's freeze-thaw winters.
Epoxy & Coatings
Flake, epoxy and polyaspartic systems for garages, shops and interiors.
New Concrete
Full removal, proper base, reinforced repours — driveways, walkways, pads and steps.

Stamped finishes and pool deck resurfacing that grips when wet.
Commercial too — warehouse floors, loading docks and property-manager repairs, with overnight and weekend scheduling.
Local knowledge
Why concrete fails in Pickering
Pickering sits on the heavy clay that runs across Durham Region — and that clay, plus GTA winters, is behind almost every failing driveway and porch we're called to. Knowing which of these is happening to yours decides whether it's a repair or a replacement.
Clay soil movement
Durham's clay swells when wet and shrinks when dry. That constant motion lifts, cracks and sinks slabs — often long before the concrete itself has worn out.
Freeze-thaw cycles
Water seeps into the surface, freezes, expands and flakes the top layer away. It's the reason so many Pickering driveways spall along the edges.
Road salt
Salt off the 401 and Highway 7 drips from vehicles all winter and eats away at unsealed concrete. A sealed or coated surface survives it far better.
Base that was never compacted
If the granular base wasn't laid in proper lifts, it settles under load. The slab has nothing to sit on and drops — however good the concrete was.
The good news: most of this is surface damage on a sound slab — a repair or resurfacing job, not a tear-out. The honest exception is when the clay has moved the base itself. Then replacement is the only answer that lasts — and we'll tell you when that's the case, with the reason, not just the number.

Good to know
Concrete in Pickering — common questions
Do you serve all of Pickering and Durham Region?
Yes. We cover Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa and the surrounding Durham Region, along with the wider GTA. We're based in Mississauga and our own crews travel across the region — same crews, same standard, whatever the postal code.
How much does concrete work cost in Pickering?
It depends on the surface and whether it's a repair, resurface or replacement. Localised repairs typically run a few thousand dollars; resurfacing a driveway or porch is roughly half the cost of replacement; full replacement is priced by area. Every quote comes back with two or three options so you can see the trade-offs. Text three photos and you'll have a written figure within one business day.
Can my Pickering driveway be repaired instead of replaced?
Usually, yes. If the damage is on the surface — cracking, flaking, spalling — the slab underneath is intact and repair or resurfacing is the cost-effective answer. Replacement is only necessary when Durham's clay soil has moved the base itself, which shows up as sunken sections or slabs sitting at different heights. We assess which situation you're in before quoting.
What time of year can concrete work be done in Pickering?
Exterior pours and most resurfacing run from roughly May through October, when temperatures stay reliably above freezing through curing. Interior work — basement floors, garage floors and epoxy coatings — carries on year-round. If waiting until spring is the better call for your job, we'll tell you rather than take it.
Do you do both residential and commercial concrete in Pickering?
Both. Residential driveways, porches, steps, garage and basement floors, plus commercial work — warehouse slabs, loading docks, plaza walkways and property-manager repairs, with overnight and weekend scheduling available.
