Resurfacing and sealing in the Central Texas sun
The Census Bureau's 2020–2024 survey estimates put the median year built of Hewitt's homes at 1994, give or take 3 years, so about half are older than that.
An overlay needs a sound slab under it. Early failures most often trace to low-quality materials, poor surface preparation or mistakes in mixing and application, and no overlay holds up for long on concrete that's already damaged, cracked or moving. Existing control joints have to be kept and carried up through the new surface, and cracks can still reflect through where the slab settles.
Heat sets the schedule. Waco averages 24.3 days a year that reach 100°F or more, by the National Weather Service's 1991–2020 normals. One maker, Butterfield Color, limits its T1000 fine overlay to air and slab temperatures from 45°F to 85°F, and the American Society of Concrete Contractors' guide wants water-based sealers applied with air and concrete at 45°F or warmer and rising, and no hotter than 90°F.
Broken slabs belong with Hewitt concrete repair, new patterns with stamped concrete, and the rest with other Hewitt services.

Check the slab
Cracks, settlement and the old sealer are checked to see whether the slab can take a new surface.
Clean and profile
The surface is pressure-washed and roughened so the new layer bonds instead of peeling.
Resurface or seal
The overlay or sealer goes on in thin layers, with the control joints carried through.

Resurfacing questions
How often should sun-exposed concrete be resealed?
Decorative sealers act as a sacrificial coat. As a rule of thumb, the American Society of Concrete Contractors puts high-traffic and sun-exposed areas at new sealer every 2 to 3 years, and lighter-traffic and interior areas at 4 to 5.
Should a badly cracked driveway be resurfaced?
No. Resurfacing is never the answer for a driveway that is severely cracked or damaged. Cracks that are deep, wide or still growing, above all where one side sits higher than the other, can point to settlement and unstable ground underneath, a problem no overlay can fix.
When can I drive on a freshly sealed driveway?
In 70°F weather, a sealed surface is usually touch-dry within 1 to 2 hours and ready for light foot traffic after 3 to 4, but keep cars and furniture off for 24 hours or longer. Hold off on sealing if rain is expected within 12 hours.
