WHAT SPENCER'S HANDLES

When Should I Replace My Concrete Driveway?

DEMOLITION, HAUL-OFF, BASE PREP, AND FRESH POUR

Most failed concrete in Northern Kentucky is past the point of patching. Cracked driveways, settled patio slabs, sunken sidewalks, and broken garage aprons usually have a base or drainage problem under them that mud-jacking and crack-filling won’t fix. Tear-out and replacement is the long-term answer: remove the failed slab, fix the underlying issue (compaction, drainage, sub-base depth), and pour a fresh slab that lasts another 25 to 30 years.

Spencer’s handles the entire workflow with owned equipment: the Bobcat T66 breaks up and removes the old concrete, the Kenworth dump truck hauls the debris off site, the base is re-prepped or upgraded as needed, and the same crew pours the new slab. No separate demolition contractor, no rental delays, no schedule gap. Customers in Walton, Florence, Williamstown, Dry Ridge, Burlington, and across Northern Kentucky go from broken concrete to finished new slab in one project.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

TEAR-OUT & REPLACEMENT QUESTIONS

Sometimes. Small hairline cracks can be sealed. Minor surface scaling can be resurfaced. But cracking with vertical displacement, settled slabs that have shifted out of plane, frost-heaved sections, and slabs cracked clean through from edge to edge are past the patching point. Spencer’s evaluates the slab at the estimate visit and gives an honest answer on patch versus replace.
A typical residential driveway tear-out and replacement runs 3 to 5 working days from demo through finished pour, plus the 7-day window before driving on the new slab. Patios and sidewalk replacement run 2 to 4 days. Weather can extend the schedule by a day or two. Spencer’s sets the timeline at the estimate and keeps the customer updated.
Spencer’s hauls every piece of broken concrete off site with the Kenworth dump truck. The debris goes to a regional crushed-concrete recycler where it gets crushed into base aggregate for future projects. The customer’s property is left clean, with topsoil and seed restored on any tracked areas if the customer requests that finish.
Some impact on adjacent lawn areas is unavoidable on driveway and patio tear-outs because the equipment needs access. Spencer’s protects features that should not be touched (mature trees, mature landscaping, sprinkler heads, gas meters), confirms locate marks before any digging, and restores tracked turf with topsoil and seed at the end of the job.
Yes. Standard broom finish in natural concrete gray matches almost any home. Integral color mixed at the ready-mix truck can warm the slab to match brick or stone. Stamped patterns, tooled edges, and acid-stained finishes are all options on the replacement pour. Spencer’s walks through finish samples at the estimate visit so the customer sees options before deciding.
Most residential driveway, patio, sidewalk, and slab replacement work in unincorporated Northern Kentucky does not require a permit. Some cities (Covington, Florence, Independence, Fort Mitchell) require a permit for driveway approaches to the public street. Spencer’s confirms the local requirement at the estimate visit and handles the permit pull if needed.
Tear-out and replacement pricing depends on the size of the slab, how broken up the existing concrete is, whether the base needs upgrading, and the finish on the new pour. A typical residential driveway tear-out and replacement in Grant, Boone, Kenton, or Campbell County falls in a quotable range Spencer provides at the on-site estimate.
