"Website promises a "thorough" evaluation - actual evaluation provided was minimal, with maximal attempted upsell. Representative informed me, "We don't fix leaks or prevent water entry, we divert the water to drain it." The so-called "solution" offered was to rip up the finished basement carpet and jackhammer the floor to lay a drainpipe from the window area all the way to the sump 50 feet away (which would also require tearing up and through the finished theater room). Like taking a car in for a flat tire and being offered the purchase of a different vehicle. I took down the drywall myself and established that water entry at ground level above the foundation had rotted the frame around the window - replacing the lumber and resealing the egress area will solve the problem. "Solution" offered by Thrasher would have done nothing to resolve issue. Company may well provide services suitable for unfinished basements - however did not make the slightest attempt to diagnose my problem and provide an appropriately logical fix."

Concrete steps need repair when you observe minor damage like hairline cracks, small chips, or slight surface deterioration. These issues don't compromise structural integrity. Consider replacement if you notice wide cracks exceeding 1/4 inch, significant crumbling, severe tilting, separation from adjacent structures, or exposed reinforcement materials.
Safety should be your priority—if steps feel unstable underfoot or show signs of major deterioration, consult a professional promptly for a thorough assessment.
The durability of concrete step repairs depends on several factors, including repair technique, environmental conditions, and maintenance practices. Industry professionals suggest that properly executed repairs can provide many years of service when maintained correctly.
Regular maintenance, like periodic sealing, can significantly extend repair longevity. The quality of workmanship makes a substantial difference—professionally completed repairs tend to outlast DIY attempts due to proper material selection, preparation, and application techniques.
Permit requirements for concrete step repairs vary significantly by location and project scope. Cosmetic repairs rarely require permits, while structural modifications or complete rebuilds often do. If you're changing the configuration, dimensions, or adding features like railings, check with your local building department before proceeding.
Many homeowners' associations also have guidelines governing exterior modifications. Working with experienced contractors can be advantageous as they understand local requirements and can handle necessary paperwork.
For optimal results, industry professionals recommend scheduling concrete repairs during moderate temperature periods when conditions are relatively dry. Proper curing requires appropriate conditions—extreme temperatures can negatively affect the setting process. Excessive moisture during installation can also compromise repair quality.
Planning ahead for suitable weather conditions increases the likelihood of successful, long-lasting repairs. If emergency repairs become necessary during less-than-ideal weather, specialized materials and techniques may be required to ensure proper results.
