Union Springs sits on some of the trickiest ground in the Montgomery area, and your concrete pays the price. The Black Belt prairie clay beneath most homes here swells hard when rain comes and shrinks and cracks when it dries out, heaving slabs and splitting driveways year after year. Montgomery Concrete Pros knows this ground intimately, and we've spent years fixing what the seasonal clay movement breaks.

Homeowners in Union Springs (36089) call us because we understand why their driveway settled unevenly, why their patio slab cracked in a straight line, and what actually works to stop it from happening again. We're not guessing. We've repaired and lifted hundreds of slabs across the Montgomery area, and we know exactly how to handle the conditions that make Union Springs concrete fail.

Concrete in Union Springs (36089)

Union Springs sits on the Black Belt prairie, where the soil beneath your home is sticky clay that behaves like nothing else in the state. When spring rains soak in, the clay swells. When summer heat and dry spells come, it shrinks and pulls away from your concrete. That movement cracks slabs, heaves driveways, and creates dangerous trip hazards on walkways. Older homes in Union Springs often sit on shallow slabs poured decades ago, before anyone understood how to build on this ground. Newer construction fares better, but even modern concrete needs proper drainage and base preparation to survive the clay cycle year after year.

We've served Union Springs and the surrounding Montgomery area for years. Our team has lifted sunken slabs using mudjacking and polyurethane foam, resurfaced cracked driveways, and sealed concrete to slow moisture penetration into that hungry clay. We know the lot sizes and access challenges here, the setback rules the town enforces, and the drainage patterns that either save your concrete or doom it. When you call us, you're calling people who have already fixed your neighbors' driveways.

How a Job Works in Union Springs

We start with a free on-site assessment. One of our team members will come to your property, look at the crack pattern or settlement, dig down to see what the base and soil conditions are, and explain exactly what's happening and what it will take to fix it. If it's a driveway or patio, we'll measure the area, discuss your options (repair, resurfacing, or replacement), and give you a clear written estimate. We'll also flag any permit requirements the town of Union Springs might have for curb cuts or right-of-way work.

Once you approve, we schedule the work and show up ready to go. For slab lifting, we drill small holes, inject foam or mud to raise the slab back to grade, and seal the holes. For removal and replacement, we haul away the old concrete, prep the base properly for Union Springs clay, and pour new slabs with good drainage and the right thickness. We work around your schedule and coordinate with any HOA or city inspector if needed.

When we're done, we haul away all debris, sweep the site clean, and walk you through the finished work. You'll know exactly what was done and why, and you'll have a warranty on the work itself.

Concrete repair and resurfacing in Union Springs typically runs from $3 to $6 per square foot, depending on how much prep work the slab needs and whether we're filling cracks or doing a full overlay. Slab lifting (mudjacking or foam) costs about $4 per square foot and is often the smartest choice for a sunken driveway because it avoids the cost and mess of removal. A new driveway or patio runs $6 to $8 per square foot for standard concrete, or $10 and up if you want stamped or decorative finishes. Sealing, which we strongly recommend in Union Springs to slow moisture and clay damage, costs about $0.75 per square foot and should be done every 2 to 3 years. A typical Union Springs driveway (500 square feet) might cost $3,000 to $4,000 for a full replacement, or $2,000 to repair and reseal an existing slab. The exact price depends on size, access, how bad the damage is, and whether you need permits. Call us at (334) 721-1995 for a free estimate tailored to your property and your budget.

Why does my driveway keep cracking in the same spots every few years, even after we had it repaired?

Union Springs sits on Black Belt prairie clay that swells when wet and shrinks when dry. If your concrete was poured directly on this clay without proper base preparation, it will keep moving and cracking no matter how many times you fill the cracks. The real fix is either to lift and stabilize the slab, or to remove and replace it with a proper base layer and drainage underneath. We can assess whether your slab is salvageable or if replacement makes more sense.

Our patio settled unevenly and now water pools on one side. Can you fix it without tearing it out?

Yes, often we can. Slab lifting using polyurethane foam or mudjacking can raise a settled section back to grade and restore proper drainage. It's faster, cheaper, and less disruptive than removal and replacement. We'll inspect the slab first to make sure it's structurally sound and worth lifting. If the concrete is badly cracked or spalling, replacement might be the better choice. Call us at (334) 721-1995 and we'll come assess it for free.

What does a typical concrete driveway cost in Union Springs, and what affects the price?

A standard concrete driveway runs about $6 per square foot, so a 500-square-foot drive (roughly 20 by 25 feet) costs around $3,000. Costs go up if the lot is hard to access, if we have to remove old concrete first, if the grade is steep, or if you want decorative finishes like stamping. Costs go down if the site is flat and open and the soil is stable. We'll give you an exact number after we visit your property.

Does Union Springs require a permit for a new driveway or patio?

Local driveway and patio work may need a permit depending on size and whether it involves a curb cut or encroaches on the right-of-way. Union Springs also has setback rules and width limits for driveways. We handle the permit process as part of the job, and we know the town's requirements. When you call for an estimate, we'll let you know what paperwork is needed.

Our HOA says we need approval before we replace the driveway. How does that work?

We're used to working with HOA rules. Typically you'll need to submit a request with a description and photo of the work, and sometimes a site plan. We can provide a detailed proposal and photos of similar work we've done in the area. Once you have HOA approval, we coordinate with them on timing and access if needed. It adds a few weeks to the timeline, but it's straightforward.

Are you fully insured if something goes wrong on my property during the work?

Yes. Montgomery Concrete Pros carries full general liability and workers' compensation insurance. We're prepared for any accident or damage, and your property is protected. You can ask to see our certificate of insurance before we start work.

It's been a hot dry summer and now my concrete is cracking badly. Should I seal it to prevent more damage?

Sealing is a smart move in Union Springs, especially after dry spells when the clay has shrunk and pulled away from the concrete. Sealer slows water penetration into the slab and into the clay beneath, which reduces the stress from future swelling and shrinking. We recommend sealing every 2 to 3 years in this area. It costs about $0.75 per square foot and can add years to the life of your concrete. If the cracks are already wide, we'll fill them first, then seal.
