Concrete Repair & Resurfacing in Hanover Park, IL
A good share of the Hanover Park driveways we look at do not need replacing. The typical Greenbrook slab has spalled across the surface from decades of road salt but is structurally intact, sitting flat with no settled sections and no cracks wider than a quarter inch. That slab is a candidate for a bonded overlay, which comes in at roughly half the cost of a full replacement.

Hanover Park specifics
The heavy Ontarioville clay decides whether resurfacing is viable. Where the base has consolidated and the slab has settled into separate planes, an overlay cracks along the same lines within a couple of seasons. Where the slab is one flat plane, an overlay lasts eight to fifteen years with sealing. No permit is needed.
Questions
How do I know if my Hanover Park driveway can be resurfaced?
If it sits flat with no rocking sections and no cracks wider than about a quarter inch, yes. If sections have settled into different planes, an overlay will crack along the same lines within a couple of seasons.
How much does resurfacing save over replacement?
About half, on a typical 650 square foot driveway. It is also done in a day or two rather than the week a replacement takes with demolition and permit review.
How long does a resurfaced driveway last?
Eight to fifteen years on a sound slab if you re-seal every three years and keep de-icing salt off it. Salt is what killed the original surface and it will do the same to an overlay.
