Question 1

Do I need to tear out my old patio to resurface it?

Accepted Answer

Usually not. Most patios don't need to be torn out — if the existing slab is structurally sound, we resurface over it with a bonded overlay, which is faster and less disruptive than a full replacement.

Question 2

How much does patio resurfacing cost?

Accepted Answer

Patio overlays follow similar per-square-foot pricing to driveway resurfacing — roughly $3–$7 per square foot for a standard overlay, more for stamped or decorative finishes. Your exact price depends on size and condition, confirmed after a real assessment.

Question 3

Can a resurfaced patio hold up to Charleston's heat and humidity?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the overlay finishes we use are chosen to hold up to Charleston's heat, humidity, and storm cycles, not just look good on installation day.

Question 4

What if my patio has drainage or standing water issues?

Accepted Answer

That's worth addressing before or during resurfacing rather than after. Standing water usually points to a drainage or grading issue underneath the slab, and resurfacing on top of an unresolved drainage problem is only a temporary fix.
