How does concrete work in San Diego?

Pacific Coast Contracting repairs concrete in San Diego County: brick, concrete block, mortar joints, and concrete cracks and joint sealing. We do not pour new foundations or design structural walls.

What is included

Tuckpointing and joint repair
Block wall repair
Brick repair on veneer, planters, and garden walls

Structural work stays with an engineer

New foundations and structural slabs are outside this service. If a crack looks like the building is moving, we say so and stop.

What the photo on this page is

It shows joint sealing at the base of a concrete block wall. That is the kind of concrete work this page covers.

Mortar color

New mortar is rarely the same shade as mortar that has been outside for decades. We get as close as the mix allows and tell you what to expect.

How it goes

01
Photo the crack or the joint
Include something for scale, like a coin or a full block. Tell us if water shows up when it rains.
02
We say what the repair is
Repoint, patch, seal, or stop and get an engineer. You hear that before we start.
03
Cut out, fill, seal
Loose material comes out. The joint gets filled or sealed. We do not smear new mortar over dust and call it done.

Questions on concrete

Do you repair concrete cracks?

Yes. We fill cracks and seal joints, including the joint at the base of a block wall. We do not pour new foundations or structural slabs.

Can you rebuild a leaning block wall?

Small failed sections can be a repair. A wall that is leaning or separating from the house needs an engineer before anyone rebuilds it. We will tell you if that is what we see.

Do you tuckpoint brick?

Yes. Failed joints get cut out and repointed. We do not paint over open joints and call that a concrete repair.
