A new top on sound concrete, and the weather it needs
About 726 of McGregor's 2,442 housing units, roughly 30%, were built in 2000 or later, by the Census Bureau's 2020–2024 survey estimates. Whatever its age, a slab has to be sound before it gets a new top. Cracks that keep spreading, or that run deep and wide, particularly with one side raised above the other, may point to settlement and a shifting subgrade instead of a surface fault, one published guide warns. Butterfield Color specifies its fine overlay at 1/16 inch up to a 3/16-inch maximum, and only when the air and the slab are both within 45°F to 85°F.
Heat sets the calendar. Waco Regional Airport's 1991–2020 normals average 114.8 days a year at or above 90°F, and for a water-based sealer the American Society of Concrete Contractors wants air and concrete at 45°F and rising, never above 90°F. For a newer slab, PROSOCO's siloxane water repellent can go on concrete 14 to 28 days old and carries an estimated service life of more than 10 years, though its maker adds that it "will not keep water out of cracks, defects or open joints."

Test the slab first
The slab is checked for movement and deep cracks, then cleaned and roughened so the new layer can bond.
Top coat or sealer
A thin overlay goes on with the old control joints carried up through it, or sealer goes on in thin coats.
Protect and reopen
Foot traffic waits until the surface has set, and cars stay off a freshly sealed slab for a full 24 hours or more.

White bloom, thick coats and cost
How is efflorescence cleared from under a sealer?
The American Society of Concrete Contractors' sealer guide puts it this way: "A permanent fix involves stripping the sealer, followed by a light acid wash (20-40 parts water to 1 part muriatic acid), or the use of an efflorescence remover."
Can sealer go on too thick?
Yes. Sealers need thin layers, 1 to 3 mils, and the ASCC traces most solvent-based sealer trouble to going on thicker than the recommended rate; an acrylic applied at about 5 mils wet dries to 1 to 2 mils.
Does resurfacing cost less than a new pour?
"When the slab is sound, resurfacing is the better value," says one national price guide for pool decks (2026), which starts resurfacing at $3 to $5 a square foot, against $6 to $10 when the deck is poured new.
