For commercial concrete repair Collin County TX property managers need, C & D Commercial Services has been fixing concrete since 1981. Collin County is one of the fastest-growing counties in the United States, and that growth creates two different concrete repair challenges. In the established commercial corridors of Plano, Frisco, and McKinney, we are dealing with concrete that is 15 to 30 years old. Sidewalks have settled and cracked, curbs have chipped and spalled, and loading dock aprons have developed structural cracks from years of truck traffic. In the booming northern corridors of Prosper, Celina, Anna, and Melissa, we are dealing with fresh concrete on new commercial developments that needs proper curing, joint installation, and attention to soil preparation from day one.
C & D has been working in Collin County for over four decades. We have repaired concrete at Legacy West in Plano, Stonebriar in Frisco, the McKinney historic square, Allen Premium Outlets, and new retail centers along US-380 in Prosper and Celina. We know the difference between repairing a 25-year-old sidewalk in Plano and addressing soil settlement issues on a brand-new development in Anna.
The established areas in Plano, Frisco, and McKinney have concrete damage that comes from age, soil movement, and heavy traffic. Cracked sidewalks where tree roots have lifted slabs, spalling curbs where years of freeze-thaw cycles have broken the surface, settled loading dock aprons where the base has eroded, and trip hazards where concrete panels have shifted. For these properties, we use full-panel replacement for severely damaged sections, mudjacking and polyurethane foam injection for settled slabs, and crack repair for structural issues.
The new development in Prosper, Celina, Anna, and Melissa has different concrete issues. Fresh concrete that was poured during wet conditions may have base compaction problems. Sidewalks and curbs that were not properly jointed are already cracking. Soil preparation issues from rapid development create settlement that causes concrete to shift and crack. For these properties, we focus on identifying the root cause, whether it is soil, drainage, or base compaction, and addressing it before repairing the concrete.
Throughout Collin County, the expansive clay soils are the root cause of most concrete damage. The clay expands when wet and contracts when dry, moving the base underneath concrete slabs and creating cracks, settlement, and trip hazards. We do not just patch the surface. We address the underlying cause, whether that means improving drainage, stabilizing the base, or installing control joints to manage future movement.
We start with a comprehensive site inspection. We walk the property and identify every crack, spall, settled slab, trip hazard, and drainage issue. We document the severity and develop a repair plan tailored to the specific damage.
For cracked sidewalks and trip hazards, we use several methods. Hairline cracks get epoxy injection. Wider cracks get routing and sealing with polyurea or silicone sealant. Settled slabs that create trip hazards get mudjacking or polyurethane foam injection to raise them back to level. Severely damaged panels get full removal and replacement with new reinforced concrete.
For spalling curbs and damaged loading dock aprons, we saw-cut the damaged section, remove it, repair the base, and pour new reinforced concrete. We use high-strength concrete mixes for loading dock aprons that handle truck traffic.
For settled concrete, we use mudjacking or polyurethane foam injection. We drill small holes through the slab, pump material underneath to fill voids and raise the slab, then patch the holes. This is far less expensive than full replacement and can be completed in hours instead of days.
For preventative maintenance, we seal concrete joints and cracks to prevent water intrusion. Water entering joints and cracks erodes the base, causes settlement, and accelerates deterioration.
In Collin County, preventative maintenance is critical because the expansive clay soils create constant base movement. Joint sealing is the most important maintenance task. Control joints and expansion joints allow concrete to move with the soil, but if those joints are not sealed, water enters and erodes the base. We recommend joint sealing every 3 to 5 years for most commercial properties.
For new developments in Prosper and Celina, we recommend a concrete inspection within the first year to identify any settlement or cracking from the initial curing process. Catching these early allows us to address the root cause before the damage spreads.
For properties with tree-root damage, we can install root barriers to prevent future uplift of sidewalks and curbs. For properties with drainage issues, we can correct the drainage to stop water from pooling near concrete slabs and eroding the base.
For loading dock aprons and high-traffic concrete, we recommend annual inspections. Truck traffic damage progresses fast, and early repair prevents the need for full replacement.
We do not list prices on a website because every concrete repair is different. The extent of damage, the type of concrete, whether the issue is surface-level or structural, whether we need to address drainage or base issues underneath. What we can tell you is that we have been buying concrete and repair materials from the same DFW suppliers for over 40 years. Those relationships mean our material costs are lower than most competitors, and we pass that along. Property managers who compare our quotes typically find we come in lower.
