Tecumseh's historic downtown and established residential neighborhoods sit on clay-heavy glacial ground that shifts with freeze-thaw cycles, frost heave, and wet springs, leaving older sidewalks buckled, driveways cracked, and front steps settling unevenly. Ann Arbor Concrete serves Tecumseh (49286) and the surrounding Ann Arbor area with concrete repair, resurfacing, and new construction that handles this terrain and the demands of Michigan winters.
Homeowners and property managers in Tecumseh call us because we understand the specific challenges of aging concrete on clay soil, tight lot access around older homes, and the need to move fast before small cracks become trip hazards or water damage. We've worked on dozens of properties throughout Tecumseh and know the local conditions, permit requirements, and what holds up in this climate.
Concrete in Tecumseh (49286)
Tecumseh's mix of historic downtown properties, mid-century homes, and newer residential areas all share one challenge: the ground beneath them. Heavy clay till dominates much of the area, which holds water, heaves in winter, and puts constant stress on concrete slabs, driveways, and sidewalks. Frost in Michigan reaches more than three feet deep, and the dozens of freeze-thaw cycles each winter, combined with road salt and wet snow, cause scaling, cracking, spalling, and uneven settling that can worsen quickly if not addressed.
We've repaired and replaced concrete on narrow driveways serving older Tecumseh homes, lifted sunken sidewalks and slabs that create trip hazards, and resurfaced garage floors and patios damaged by salt and moisture. Our team knows the local soil conditions, understands how to work on properties with limited access or mature tree root systems, and is familiar with Tecumseh's permit requirements for driveway and sidewalk work. We're fully insured and work year-round, including emergency repairs when weather or settling damage needs immediate attention.

How a Job Works in Tecumseh
We start with a free on-site assessment. You call us at (734) 249-8552 or reach out online, and we visit your Tecumseh property to look at the concrete, understand the drainage and soil conditions, check for settling or water issues, and discuss what's needed. We'll give you a clear estimate and timeline, and we'll answer questions about local permits or HOA approval if that applies to your property.
Once you're ready, our team handles the work itself. For driveways and sidewalks, we manage site access, protect landscaping and nearby structures, coordinate with the city if permits are required, and work efficiently so the job doesn't drag on. For repairs and resurfacing, we remove damaged concrete, address any underlying settlement or drainage problems, and pour or finish new concrete to proper grade and slope. For lifting or leveling, we use concrete jacking to raise settled slabs safely without replacement. We work through the seasons, and we're experienced with tight lots, old tree roots, and the logistics of working around Tecumseh's established neighborhoods.
When we're done, we clean up thoroughly, haul away all debris, and walk through the finished work with you. Your property is left clean and ready to use, with new concrete that's built to last in Michigan's climate.
Concrete repair and resurfacing in Tecumseh typically runs from $3 to $5 per square foot, depending on the extent of damage, whether we're addressing underlying settlement, and site access. A typical driveway resurfacing might cost $1,500 to $3,000. New concrete driveways and sidewalks run from $6 per square foot, so a 500-square-foot driveway would be roughly $3,000 to $4,000. Concrete leveling and slab lifting, which is popular in Tecumseh because it avoids full replacement, runs from $4 per square foot. Decorative or stamped concrete for patios or pool decks starts at $10 per square foot. Sealing existing concrete to protect against salt and moisture damage is $0.75 per square foot and extends the life of your concrete significantly. The final cost depends on the size of the area, current condition, drainage needs, access, and whether permits are required.
