Homer sits in the heart of Claiborne Parish pine hills, where historic courthouse-town homes and early-1900s residences line quiet streets under towering oaks and loblollies. The worn porch steps, settled driveways, and cracked sidewalks you see throughout 71040 tell the story of a century of Louisiana weather and soil movement, and that is exactly what Shreveport Concrete Pros knows how to fix.
Homeowners and property managers in Homer call us because we understand the specific challenges of this landscape: the clay and alluvium soils that swell in spring rains and shrink in summer heat, the tree roots that lift old walkways, and the freeze-thaw cycles that open joints and crack concrete. We have served Homer and the surrounding Shreveport area for years, and we know what holds up here and what does not.
Concrete in Homer (71040)
Homer's terrain is gently rolling, with property lots that range from narrow ribbon driveways typical of early-1900s cottages to larger estates under mature live oaks and water oaks. Most homes sit on pier-and-beam or slab-on-grade foundations, and many driveways and sidewalks rest on the Red River alluvium and upland clays that dominate this part of Claiborne Parish. These soils have real shrink-swell movement. Long, hot, dry summers open cracks at joints and around tree roots; then 50-plus inches of yearly rain swell the ground back, causing heaves, settles, and trip hazards. Spring thunderstorms test drainage and finishes, hard freezes are short but real, and ice storms arrive without warning. The result is concrete that cracks, spalls, crumbles, and settles faster than it would in drier climates.
Our team has repaired hundreds of driveways, sidewalks, and slab foundations in Homer. We know how to address the root causes, not just patch the surface, and we know the local permit requirements and setback rules that apply to your property.

How a Job Works in Homer
We start with a free on-site assessment. You call us at (318) 924-3349 or reach out online, and we come to your home in Homer to look at the concrete, walk the property, check access and drainage, and understand what you need. We ask about the age of the concrete, what caused the damage, and whether you need a quick repair or a full replacement. We also confirm whether your work requires a local permit, which is common for driveway cuts, sidewalk work, and curb cuts in Claiborne Parish.
Once we have a clear picture, we give you a straightforward estimate and timeline. If the job is urgent (a trip hazard on your front walk, or a sunken slab before it gets worse), we can often schedule fast. We handle all the logistics: materials, crew, equipment, and any permits. On tight lots with narrow driveways or close tree roots, we adjust our approach to protect your property and neighbors. We work clean and efficient.
When the work is done, we clean up completely, haul away old concrete if needed, and walk you through the finished job. You get a solid, level, safe surface that will hold up to Homer's weather and soil for years.
Pricing for concrete work in Homer depends on the size of the area, the condition of existing concrete, site access, and how quickly you need it done. A typical concrete driveway runs from 6 dollars per square foot; a patio or sidewalk starts at the same. Concrete repair and resurfacing, which is very common in Homer, starts at 3 dollars per square foot. If you have a sunken slab that needs lifting, concrete leveling runs from 4 dollars per square foot and can save you the cost of a full replacement. Stamped or decorative concrete, popular for patios and pool decks, starts at 10 dollars per square foot. Concrete sealing, which protects against the spring rains and summer cracks that plague Homer, starts at 0.75 dollars per square foot. For an accurate quote tailored to your property and needs, call us at (318) 924-3349 for a free estimate. We are transparent about costs and will walk you through every line item.
