How much does it cost to resurface concrete?

A common question we hear when discussing concrete resurfacing is, “How much does it cost?” It’s an understandable question, of course—everyone has a budget and limits they need to set.

While we wish we could give everyone an answer right away, the truth about resurfacing costs is that it really depends. You could pay as little as $3 per square foot or as much as $25 per square foot. Here, we will cover some of the factors that influence resurfacing costs to give you an idea of what might impact your project price.

*Minimum prices for various applications range from $850 to $3500.

What influences resurfacing costs?

While the products you choose for your project do have a fixed cost, there are variables that will affect the price of your overall project.

Project size. How many square feet will be resurfaced?
Condition of the existing concrete. Does your surface have lots of cracks, spalling, chipping, fading, or uneven spots? Is there other damage? If that’s the case, we can still resurface your concrete, but these fixes will add to the cost.
Product choice. Product prices per square foot vary from product to product.
Design choice. Are you looking to do something simple and monochromatic? It will likely be less expensive than if you want a design that’s very elaborate and time consuming to create.

Resurfacing versus demolition

Another question we hear often is, “Is it less expensive to tear out my existing concrete?” Our answer to that is always no. As long as your surface is viable, the best option is to resurface the area.

When you resurface concrete rather than tear it out, you save on demolition costs that come from paying for the labor required to tear out the concrete and dispose of the materials (sometimes there’s even a fee associated with concrete disposal).

For commercial property owners, avoiding demolition is desirable because your commercial property will spend less time looking like a construction zone.

It is important to note that we will never resurface concrete that isn’t viable. If a surface is not structurally sound, we do not recommend resurfacing.

Is it expensive to resurface damaged concrete?

While it is more expensive to resurface damaged concrete than concrete in good condition, resurfacing is still a less expensive option than tearing your concrete out.

The price they charged was comparable to the going rate, but they aren't the cheapest service out there for this type of product they produce. There are certain times you can get someone else cheaper, but you may pay for it in the long run. (Catherine W.)
