Schertz's 2000s brick subdivisions sit on the same shrink-swell clay that cracks driveways and walkways after long dry spells and heavy spring rains. If your driveway has settled, your patio is uneven, or cracks are spreading across your garage floor, you're seeing what happens when expansive soil moves under your feet.

San Antonio Concrete has been serving Schertz (78154) and the surrounding area for years. We know the terrain here, the weather patterns that stress concrete, and the permit requirements the City of Schertz enforces. When your concrete fails, we fix it right, and we do it fast.

Concrete in Schertz (78154)

Schertz sits on deep, dark expansive clay that shrinks during drought and swells after rain. That movement cracks driveways, heaves slab foundations, and creates trip hazards on sidewalks and patios. Unlike the rocky caliche soils north of Loop 1604, your neighborhood's clay soil is unforgiving. Add 100-degree summers that speed concrete set times and intense sun that fades unprotected sealers, and your concrete needs both proper installation and ongoing care.

We've repaired hundreds of Schertz driveways and patios damaged by soil movement and weather. We understand the lot layouts in your subdivisions, the tight access many homes have, and the drainage challenges clay soil creates. Whether you need a new driveway, repair work on cracked concrete, or slab leveling to fix a sunken section, our team knows what works in Schertz and what doesn't.

How a Job Works in Schertz

We start with a free on-site assessment. We look at the damage, check drainage and soil conditions, measure the area, and ask about your timeline and budget. We'll explain what caused the problem and what we recommend to fix it and keep it from happening again. Most estimates are ready the same day.

When we're ready to work, we coordinate with you on timing and access. Schertz lots can be tight, and many homes have HOA rules about work schedules and appearance. We manage that. We handle any local permits required by the City of Schertz, and we work clean, moving equipment carefully and protecting landscaping and parked cars.

After the work is done, we clean up completely, haul away debris, and walk through the finished job with you. You'll see the work, understand what we did, and know how to care for it going forward.

Concrete repair and replacement in Schertz typically runs from $3 per square foot for resurfacing up to $7 per square foot for full removal and replacement. A new driveway or patio starts at $6 per square foot. A stamped or decorative finish runs $10 per square foot or more, depending on the pattern and color. Concrete sealing, which we strongly recommend in Schertz's climate, costs about $0.75 per square foot and extends the life of your concrete by years. The final price depends on the size of the area, soil and drainage conditions, access for equipment, and whether you need permits. Call us at (210) 399-8031 for a free estimate. We'll give you honest numbers and explain every cost.

Why do so many driveways in Schertz crack after a dry spell?

Schertz sits on expansive clay soil that shrinks when it dries out and swells when it absorbs water. During a long dry spell, the soil under your driveway shrinks, leaving gaps and causing the concrete to crack and settle. When heavy rain comes, the soil swells again, pushing the concrete up unevenly. This cycle repeats every year. The best defense is good drainage, proper base preparation during installation, and regular sealing to control moisture. If cracks have already formed, we can repair them and seal the surface to slow future damage.

My patio has sunken in one corner and created a trip hazard. Can you fix it without tearing it out?

Yes. We offer concrete leveling and slab lifting, which uses hydraulic pressure to raise sunken sections back to level. It costs about $4 per square foot and takes a day or two, depending on the size. It's much cheaper and faster than removal and replacement. We can also seal the surface afterward to protect it from moisture and future movement. Call us at (210) 399-8031 to schedule a free assessment.

What's a realistic price for a new driveway in Schertz?

A standard concrete driveway runs $6 per square foot. A 500-square-foot driveway (roughly 12 by 40 feet) would cost around $3,000 before tax. If you want a stamped or decorative finish, add $4 to $10 per square foot. Costs can go up if the lot has poor drainage, tight access, or if we need to remove and haul away old concrete first. We'll give you a firm estimate after we see the site.

Do I need a permit from the City of Schertz to pour a new driveway or patio?

Driveway and patio work in Schertz may require a local permit, depending on size and whether you're modifying a curb cut or right-of-way. The City of Schertz website has details on permit requirements and fees. We handle permit paperwork as part of our service, so you don't have to worry about it. We'll let you know upfront if a permit is needed and build the time and cost into your estimate.

Our subdivision has an HOA. Will they approve concrete work on our property?

Most Schertz HOAs allow concrete repair and replacement as long as the work meets their design and color guidelines. We recommend checking your HOA rules before you call us. If you need approval, we can provide photos, specifications, and timelines to submit with your request. We're experienced working with Schertz HOAs and can often coordinate directly with them to speed up the approval process.

Are you fully insured for work at my Schertz home?

Yes. San Antonio Concrete carries full general liability and workers' compensation insurance. We protect your property and our crew on every job. You can work with confidence knowing we're covered.

When is the best time to seal my concrete in Schertz?

We recommend sealing new concrete about 30 days after it's poured, once it's fully cured. For existing concrete, seal it in spring before the hot, dry season arrives. Sealing slows moisture loss, reduces cracking, protects against UV fade, and extends the life of your concrete by years. In Schertz's intense summer sun and clay soil, sealing is one of the best investments you can make. We offer sealing at $0.75 per square foot and can schedule it anytime that works for you.
