Selma's antebellum and Victorian homes sit on Black Belt chalk clay that heaves, cracks, and splits concrete slabs and walkways year after year. Montgomery Concrete Pros knows this ground intimately, and we've spent years repairing and lifting sunken driveways, crumbling patios, and uneven sidewalks across Selma (36701) and the surrounding Montgomery area.
When your front walk has buckled from clay movement, or your driveway has settled into a trip hazard, or your garage apron is spalling and crumbling, we show up with the right tools and the local knowledge to fix it right. Homeowners in Selma call us because we understand the terrain, we move fast, and we stand behind our work.
Concrete in Selma (36701)
Selma sits on the Black Belt prairie, where sticky clay and Selma chalk swell when rain soaks in and shrink and crack during dry spells. That constant heaving and settling is the enemy of concrete. Your driveway doesn't fail because of poor installation; it fails because the ground underneath is moving. We see it constantly: slabs that have lifted 2 or 3 inches on one side, sidewalks that have buckled and created trip hazards, and garage aprons that have cracked and spalled from the stress. The red oak and pine trees in your yard make it worse, their roots lifting the edges of patios and front walks.
We also contend with 53 inches of rain a year, long humid summers in the 90s that speed concrete set times, and frequent afternoon thunderstorms. Unsealed concrete in shaded areas grows mildew and algae fast. Our team has spent years serving Selma's historic neighborhoods, the newer subdivisions to the east, and the Montgomery area in between. We know which fixes hold and which ones don't.

How a Job Works in Selma
We start with a free on-site assessment. We'll walk your property, look at the concrete, check the drainage and grade, and talk through what's causing the problem. If your driveway has settled, we'll explain whether it's root heave, clay movement, or poor base prep, and what the best fix is. We'll give you a clear estimate and a timeline, and we'll handle any local permits required by the City of Selma for driveway or sidewalk work.
Once you say go, our crew shows up ready to work. We bring the right equipment: concrete saws, jackhammers, lifting rigs for slab jacking, or resurfacing tools depending on the job. We work efficiently and respect your property. If you have a tight lot or a narrow side yard, we manage access carefully. If your HOA has rules, we coordinate. We're honest about what we can do and what the ground will allow.
When we're done, we haul away the debris, sweep and clean the area, and do a final walkthrough with you. You get a clean property and concrete that's going to last.
Pricing in Selma depends on the size of the job, the condition of the existing concrete, and what the ground is doing underneath. A concrete driveway repair and resurfacing typically runs from $3 to $6 per square foot, depending on how much work the clay and settling have caused. Concrete leveling and slab lifting, which we do constantly in Selma, runs about $4 per square foot. A new driveway or patio starts at $6 per square foot. Stamped or decorative concrete runs higher, from $10 per square foot. Sealing to protect against mildew and moisture in our humid climate costs about $0.75 per square foot. The best way to know your cost is to call us at (334) 721-1995 for a free estimate. We'll measure the area, assess the ground, and give you a realistic price with no surprises.
