Eunice's prairie-town homes sit on clay ground that shifts with every wet winter and dry summer, and your driveway or garage floor knows it. We're Lafayette Concrete, and we've spent years fixing the cracked, settled, and spalling concrete that comes with living in 70535.
Whether your side driveway has sunk near the detached garage, your front walkway is heaving, or your garage floor is crumbling from years of moisture and freeze-thaw stress, we show up with the right tools and the local knowledge to get it done right. Eunice homeowners call us because we understand the terrain, we move fast, and we leave your property cleaner than we found it.
Concrete in Eunice (70535)
Eunice sits on the flat coastal prairie, but that flat ground hides a real problem: silty loam topsoil over dense, poorly drained clay that swells and shrinks with every season. Your slab was poured on that clay, and clay moves. Summer heat and drought pull moisture out of the ground, and the clay shrinks, leaving your driveway and garage floor to crack and settle. Winter rain and the spring thaw saturate that same clay, and it expands, pushing your slabs up unevenly. Add 60 inches of annual rainfall, heavy summer thunderstorms, and the occasional hurricane-season deluge, and you've got a recipe for sunken joints, crumbling edges, and trip hazards that get worse every year if you ignore them.
Older prairie-town homes along the quiet streets near downtown Eunice often have narrow side driveways leading to detached garages, which means tight access and tricky grading. Newer homes out toward the edge of town have wider driveways, attached garages, and backyard patios and pool decks that sit on the same unstable clay. Our team has worked on all of it. We know how to assess what's happening under your concrete, why it's moving, and whether you need repair, resurfacing, leveling, or replacement. We've got the equipment and the experience to work in tight spaces, coordinate with your neighbors, and handle the local permit process.

How a Job Works in Eunice
You call us at (337) 273-0928 or reach out online. We schedule a free on-site visit to look at your concrete, ask about how long the problem's been there, check for drainage issues, and talk about what you want the space to look like when we're done. We take photos, measure the area, and give you a clear estimate in writing before we start anything.
On the day of the job, our crew shows up with the right tools for the work: saws, jackhammers, grinders, or lifting equipment, depending on whether we're doing repair, resurfacing, leveling, or removal and replacement. If your driveway is in a tight spot between your house and a neighbor's fence, we work carefully. If you need a permit from the city for a curb cut or right-of-way work, we handle the paperwork and timing. We work efficiently so we're not tying up your property for days, and we keep dust and debris contained.
When the concrete is finished, we clean up every scrap of broken concrete, dust, and debris. We do a final walkthrough with you, point out the new work, and answer any questions about care and sealing. You get a clean property and a solid surface that's going to last.
Concrete repair and resurfacing in Eunice typically runs from $3 to $5 per square foot, depending on how deep the damage goes and whether we're just patching or resurfacing the whole slab. Garage floors and polished concrete start around $4 to $5 per square foot. A fresh driveway or patio runs $6 per square foot for standard concrete, and stamped or decorative finishes start at $10 per square foot if you want something with texture or color. Concrete leveling and slab lifting, which is common here because of ground settlement, runs around $4 per square foot. Sealing, which we strongly recommend to protect against mildew, algae, and moisture penetration in our humid climate, starts at $0.75 per square foot. The biggest cost factors are the size of the area, how tight the access is (a narrow side driveway costs more than a wide front drive), the current condition of the ground, and whether we need to remove and replace or just repair what's there. Call us at (337) 273-0928 for a free estimate on your specific job. We'll give you an honest number and explain what's driving the price.
