What this Texas service covers

Texas concrete contractors — driveways, patios, walkways, slabs, and cracked-concrete repair over expansive clay soil.

Handyman work covers the smaller repairs that do not always need a specialty trade: drywall patches, door adjustments, trim, fixtures, fence sections, weatherstripping, and general punch lists.

Use this page when the project is practical and specific, but not clearly plumbing, HVAC, electrical, or roofing. If the request touches licensed work, it should be routed to the proper trade.

Common concrete jobs

  • Cracked or heaved driveways and slabs
  • New driveways, patios, and walkways
  • Stamped and decorative concrete
  • Sunken slabs (mudjacking / leveling)
  • Proper base, rebar, and control joints
  • Drainage and grading around the pour

When to request a contractor

  • Drywall patch, texture match, or minor water-damage repair
  • Door, trim, cabinet, shelf, or fixture installation
  • Fence section, gate, deck, or exterior touch-up
  • A punch list of several small jobs in one visit

What to include for a better callback

  • A short numbered list of tasks
  • Photos and rough dimensions
  • Whether materials are already purchased
  • Preferred day/time window and parking or access notes

Texas-specific notes

  • General handyman work is not state licensed in Texas.

  • A written scope helps keep small projects from expanding without approval.

FAQ

Why does concrete crack so much in Texas?

Texas's expansive clay swells when wet and shrinks when dry, moving slabs up and down with the seasons. Hairline cracks are normal; major cracking usually means a thin pour, no rebar, a poor base, or missing control joints — all avoidable with the right contractor.

Do concrete contractors need a license in Texas?

Texas has no statewide concrete contractor license. The difference between a 5-year and a 30-year pour is base prep, thickness, rebar/mesh, and control-joint spacing — ask what they spec, and confirm insurance and a written warranty.

How much does a concrete driveway cost in Texas?

Plain concrete runs about $6–$10 per sq ft installed; stamped or decorative $10–$14+. A standard two-car driveway typically lands between $4,000 and $8,000 depending on tear-out, base, and reinforcement. Get a written quote listing thickness and rebar.
