Portland sits just across the Harbor Bridge from Corpus Christi, where brick homes with pools dot flat clay lots and bayside subdivisions catch the salt air and Gulf rain year-round. When your concrete driveway, patio or pool deck starts to crack, settle or spall in this coastal environment, you need a crew that understands why it happens and how to fix it right the first time.
Homeowners and property managers in Portland (78374) call Corpus Christi Concrete because we know the Coastal Bend's terrain, weather and building stock. We've repaired sun-bleached driveways, resurfaced patios that shed Gulf downpours, and built pool decks that stay level through drought and deluge.
Concrete in Portland (78374)
Portland's bayside properties sit on the same dark, highly expansive clay that underlies much of the Corpus Christi area. This soil swells dramatically when tropical rains soak in and shrinks hard during long dry spells, which puts constant stress on concrete slabs and flatwork. Add salt-laden Gulf air that corrodes rebar and shallow wire mesh, and you get the spalling, rust stains and crumbling edges we see on older driveways and patios near the water. Drainage is critical here, and joints matter more than homeowners often realize.
Our team has spent years building and repairing concrete across Portland and the surrounding Corpus Christi area. We know how to set proper slopes for rain runoff, space control joints to handle clay movement, and use sealers that stand up to salt spray and UV. Whether your home is a classic brick cottage, a mid-century ranch, or a newer subdivision property with a pool, we've got the experience to do the job right.

How a Job Works in Portland
We start with a free on-site assessment. One of our team members will visit your property in Portland, walk the concrete, check the grade and drainage, ask about the history of the problem, and give you a realistic estimate and timeline. We'll also flag any local permit requirements or HOA coordination you'll need to handle before we start.
Once you approve, we schedule the work around your schedule and the weather. For driveways and patios, we remove old concrete if needed, prep and level the base, set proper slopes for drainage, pour new concrete, and finish it to your specifications. For repairs and resurfacing, we grind out damaged areas, address any underlying settling or drainage issues, and apply new concrete or sealant. Tight lot access or narrow side yards don't stop us, but we'll let you know upfront if we need to coordinate with neighbors or the city.
When we're done, we haul away all debris, sweep and clean your property, and walk you through the finished work. New concrete needs time to cure before heavy use, and we'll give you clear guidance on that. Your property should look better than when we arrived.
Concrete work in Portland ranges widely depending on size, condition, access and what you're building or fixing. A new driveway typically runs from $6 per square foot, a patio from $6 per square foot, and a pool deck from $8 per square foot. If you need decorative or stamped concrete, expect $10 per square foot or more. Repairs and resurfacing are often cheaper, starting at $3 to $5 per square foot depending on how much work the slab needs. Sealing an existing driveway or patio costs around $0.75 per square foot and extends the life of your concrete by years. The biggest cost drivers are square footage, how difficult the site access is, whether we need to remove and haul old concrete, and how urgently you need the work done.
