Concrete in a restoration project
Old concrete in a house that has sat for years can be in rough shape, and it is often worth clearing first. Taking out failed slabs, broken steps and old pads opens up the site and shows you what you have. A new basement floor then gives you a dry and clean place to work from for the rest of the project.
See concrete removal and basement floors.
If you bought a property needing work, plan your concrete in stages. Removal and basement floors usually come early, because heavy trades need a clean, solid floor. Steps and walks are often better left to the end, so that dumpsters and deliveries don't wreck them. A short written plan saves money here. We can price each stage separately, so you can spread the work across your budget.

Concrete questions from Wilkinsburg
When should a concrete company come in on a Wilkinsburg restoration?
Usually early. Clearing failed slabs and pouring a new basement floor gives other trades a clean, solid place to work, while steps and walks are best left to the end. We can price each stage separately.
Can you pour a basement floor in winter in a Wilkinsburg house?
Yes, if the basement is closed in and kept warm. NRMCA says new concrete must be kept from freezing until it reaches 500 psi, about two days at 50 degrees, and any heater in an enclosed space must be vented. In an unheated house under restoration, plan on temporary heat and blankets.
How much to replace concrete floor?
Usually $8 to $15 per square foot, depending on access and what is underneath it.
Can you pour new concrete steps over old ones in Wilkinsburg?
Only as a thin bonded overlay, and only on solid steps. Adding thickness changes the top and bottom risers, and since January 2026 the state's stair rule, added to the 2021 residential code, keeps every riser in a flight within 3/8 inch of the rest, so broken steps are usually better rebuilt. Ask the borough about the current rule.
