Commercial Concrete Repair and Resurfacing
Cracked curbs, spalled loading areas, uneven joints, worn thresholds, pitted surfaces, and trip hazards create more than an appearance problem. They can affect safety, traffic flow, equipment, and maintenance costs.
Damaged concrete can slow or damage carts, forklifts, trucks and impact pedestrians, and service crews. Left neglected, it can affect access, maintenance schedules, and customer-facing areas.
Restore damaged concrete without a full replacement
Simon Surfaces helps facility teams repair and resurface damaged concrete without unnecessary tear-out. We evaluate the concrete first, then recommend the right approach: localized repair, heavy-duty resurfacing, or replacement when the sub-surface requires it.
Our high-strength epoxy mortar is manufactured by our sister division, Simon Products, and is installed by trained crews. That gives your facility one accountable partner for material performance, preparation, installation, and follow-through.
A Better Approach to Commercial Concrete Repair
Concrete damage is often handled one of two ways: a quick patch that does not hold or a full tear-out that may not be necessary.
Simon Surfaces starts with the condition of the existing concrete. Before recommending a repair scope, we evaluate:
- The depth and extent of the damage
- The stability of the surrounding concrete
- The traffic, impact, and load the area receives
- Exposure to water, salt, oil, fuel, and chemicals
- Access needs and operational requirements
- Whether movement or deterioration is still active
This helps your team understand what can be repaired, what should be resurfaced, and what may need to be replaced. The result is a clearer scope and less uncertainty before work begins.
Concrete damage often starts with water intrusion, freeze-thaw cycles, de-icing salts, heavy wheel loads, forklift traffic, joint movement, impact, or poor drainage. If the cause is not addressed, the same area can become a repeat maintenance issue.
Repair, Resurface, or Replace?
The right solution depends on the damage, the condition of the surrounding concrete, and how the area is used.
Localized repairs are used for defined damage areas. Simon HD resurfacing is used when surface deterioration is more widespread, and the existing slab can still support a bonded overlay.
Localized Concrete Repair
Localized repair is appropriate when damage is limited to a defined area and the surrounding concrete remains stable.
Common examples include:
- Broken curb corners
- Spalled joints
- Chipped thresholds
- Small pits
- Damaged transitions
- Hairline cracks
- Minor forklift or vehicle impact damage
Simon Surfaces repairs these areas to create a flat surface, resolving trip hazards..
Commercial Concrete Resurfacing
Resurfacing is appropriate when damage extends across a wider area, but the underlying slab is still stable enough to support a bonded overlay.
This may include:
- Heavily pitted loading areas
- Scaled walkways
- Worn dumpster pads
- Damaged service areas
- Broad surface deterioration
Instead of placing multiple patches across the area, Simon Surfaces installs a bonded epoxy mortar overlay to create a new working surface. Resurfacing provides a consistent finish to blend repairs, and extend the usefulness of the existing slab.
Concrete Replacement
Replacement is recommended when the concrete can no longer support a reliable repair or resurfacing solution.
This may include:
- Full-depth deterioration
- Major displacement
- Structural instability
- Ongoing movement
- Extensive failure below the surface
When replacement is necessary, we explain why. When repair or resurfacing is appropriate, we do not recommend unnecessary tear-out.

High-Strength Materials for Commercial Concrete Repair
Simon Surfaces uses epoxy mortar to restore damaged concrete in areas exposed to traffic, impact, chemicals, and weather. The material is two to three times stronger than standard concrete.
- Curbs
- Joints
- Thresholds
- Loading transitions
- Impact areas
- Industrial traffic zones
That added strength helps areas stand up to repeated vehicle traffic, equipment impact, de-icing materials, chemicals, and everyday facility exposure.
Custom colors are also available when a repair needs to blend with surrounding concrete, maintain a safety designation, or support facility branding.
Simon HD Resurfacing for Heavily Worn Areas
Simon HD is a 1/4-inch epoxy mortar overlay designed for concrete with widespread surface damage.
It is used in indoor and outdoor areas such as:
- Loading docks
- Sidewalks and curbs
- Steps and stairs
- Dumpster pads
- Thresholds for industrial doors (garage, warehouse, storage)
- Service areas
- High-traffic facility surfaces
The 1/4-inch build provides more wear and impact resistance than a thin coating. It covers widespread pitting, restores a consistent working surface, and helps preserve the sound concrete below.
Simon HD cures at 10,000 PSI and can be finished with a slip-resistant texture for areas exposed to foot traffic, carts, forklifts, trucks, and repeated loading.
Where We Repair Commercial Concrete
Simon Surfaces repairs and resurfaces concrete where traffic, impact, and exposure are concentrated.
These repairs are commonly used for retail properties, warehouses, industrial facilities, convenience stores, banks, restaurants, country clubs, automotive facilities, and other commercial sites with high-use concrete surfaces.
Dumpster pads, parking areas, curbs, protective barriers, drive-thru lanes, light-post bases, and other high-use exterior surfaces.
Why Facility Teams Partner With Simon Surfaces
One Partner From Evaluation Through Installation
Simon Surfaces manages the process from evaluation through installation. Your team does not have to coordinate between a material supplier, outside installer, and multiple points of accountability.
Trained Crews
The work is completed by trained crews who understand the materials, preparation requirements, and installation process.
Solutions Based on the Existing Concrete
We do not treat every concrete problem as a replacement project. Our team determines what can be repaired, what should be resurfaced, and what truly needs to be removed.
Work Planned Around Your Facility
Concrete repair should not create a larger operational problem. We coordinate access, curing, and return-to-service requirements before work begins. Projects can be phased by entrance, lane, loading bay, or work area to help reduce disruption. Our crews often work in off-hours to minimize impact on customers and employees.
Support for Multi-Site Facilities
For teams managing multiple locations, Simon Surfaces can help create a more consistent approach to concrete repair and resurfacing. That reduces one-off decisions, inconsistent scopes, and repeated temporary fixes across sites.
What to Expect From the Process
Site Evaluation
We assess the damaged area, surrounding concrete, traffic conditions, and site requirements.
Clear Scope Recommendation
We identify which areas should be repaired, resurfaced, or replaced and explain why.
Surface Preparation
The most important step in any surfacing installation is the prep work. Our crews will ensure appropriate safety measures are set up and all prep work is completed for the scope.
Installation
The repair or resurfacing solution is installed by trained crews.
Planned Return to Service
Your team receives full details on cure time for both foot and vehicle traffic, best maintenance practices, and more.
Commercial Concrete Repair FAQs
Common repair candidates include cracks, spalls, pits, broken joints, damaged thresholds, curb failures, and localized impact damage. The surrounding concrete must be stable enough to support the repair.
Yes. When damage is localized or limited to the surface and the sub-base of the slab remains sound, repair or resurfacing may restore the area without full replacement.
Resurfacing is appropriate when deterioration covers a larger area but the underlying slab remains stable. It provides a more consistent surface than placing multiple individual patches that may affect the aesthetics of customer-facing areas.
Common causes include freeze-thaw cycles, water intrusion, de-icing salts, joint movement, forklift traffic, heavy wheel loads, vehicle impact, and poor drainage. Identifying the cause matters because unresolved movement or moisture can shorten the life of the repair.
Timing depends on the size of the area, preparation requirements, temperature, site access, and the selected solution. Small repairs often have a quick return-to-service cure time. Larger projects can be phased to maintain access to entrances, lanes, or work areas.
Yes. We work with multi-site facility teams to evaluate recurring concrete problems, standardize repair scopes, and coordinate work across properties.
