Why are cracks showing up on a slab that's barely a decade old? In Fountain Hills, the answer is usually heat cycling. Slab surfaces swing from well over 140°F in direct summer sun to much cooler desert nights, and that daily expansion and contraction opens hairline cracks over time, especially on original-build slabs from the town's earlier growth years.

Fountain Hills Epoxy Pros repairs cracks before any coating goes down, because a cracked slab under a new finish just telegraphs the same crack back to the surface within a season or two.

What's included

What's Included with Concrete Crack Repair

Typically included: crack assessment and classification, debris removal, crack widening where needed, filler injection, surface leveling, sealing. Optional: flexible polyurethane sealant for cracks expected to keep moving with the slab. Customer prep: point out all visible cracks, including hairline ones near garage doors or expansion joints.

How it works

How Our Concrete Crack Repair Process Works

  1. Crack Assessment photo
    Step 1

    Crack Assessment

    Measuring and classifying cracks to pick the right repair method for the movement involved.

  2. Debris Removal photo
    Step 2

    Debris Removal

    Clearing loose material and dust from the crack before any filler goes in.

  3. Crack Widening photo
    Step 3

    Crack Widening

    Slightly widening the crack so repair material has more surface area to bond to.

  4. Filler Injection photo
    Step 4

    Filler Injection

    Injecting or pouring compound into the void to fill it fully, not just skim the surface.

  5. Surface Leveling photo
    Step 5

    Surface Leveling

    Leveling the repair flush with the surrounding slab so it won't show under a coating.

  6. Final Sealing photo
    Step 6

    Final Sealing

    Sealing over the repair to keep moisture out, important given Fountain Hills' monsoon season.

Materials

Materials and Methods for Concrete Crack Repair

Cracks that move with daily heat cycles need a different fix than a crack that's purely cosmetic, so we match the filler to how the slab is actually behaving.

  • Epoxy Crack Filler photo

    Epoxy Crack Filler

    A rigid bond for cracks that aren't actively moving, restoring structural integrity.

  • Polyurethane Crack Sealant photo

    Polyurethane Crack Sealant

    Flexes with the slab through Fountain Hills' daily heat swings without re-cracking.

  • Semi-Rigid Repair Paste photo

    Semi-Rigid Repair Paste

    Fills narrow hairline cracks while keeping some give for minor movement.

  • Concrete Bonding Agent photo

    Concrete Bonding Agent

    Ensures the new repair material actually bonds to older, weathered concrete.

  • Joint Filler Compound photo

    Joint Filler Compound

    Used specifically on expansion joints that see the most thermal movement.

  • Surface Patch Mix photo

    Surface Patch Mix

    Restores texture after the crack is filled so the coating goes on smooth.

DIY vs pro

DIY vs Hiring a Pro for Concrete Crack Repair

DIYHire a pro
Fine for hairline hairline cosmetic cracks in a low-traffic area with no plans to coat over them.A crack that's actively moving with heat cycles needs a flexible filler, not a rigid surface patch, or it reopens within months.
Store-bought caulk-style fillers can hold for a season on cracks that aren't moving.Fountain Hills Epoxy Pros widens and keys the crack before filling, which gives the repair material something to grip instead of just sitting on top.
—Pro repair is done right before coating so the whole system bonds as one surface.

FAQs

Concrete Crack Repair FAQs

Can epoxy go over an existing cracked garage slab?

Not directly over an unrepaired crack. The crack needs to be filled and leveled first, or it will show through the coating and likely reopen.

Will epoxy crack in extreme Arizona heat?

A properly repaired slab with flexible crack filler underneath holds up well. The risk comes from coating over an unaddressed crack, which moves with the slab and cracks the finish above it.

How much does 1000 sq ft of epoxy cost?

Crack repair is usually priced separately from the coating itself, based on total crack length and severity rather than square footage of the room.

How long does Epoxy Flooring take?

Crack repair typically adds a day to the overall project timeline, since the filler needs to cure before grinding and coating proceed.

Do I need a permit for Epoxy Flooring?

Cosmetic crack repair ahead of a coating job usually doesn't need a permit. If cracks suggest a structural issue, that's a separate assessment outside our scope.

Is DIY Epoxy Flooring a good idea?

For cracks you plan to coat over, DIY surface patching without widening and keying the crack tends to fail within a season once heat cycling resumes.
