Concrete is one of the most durable building materials available, but due to its rigid nature, concrete can develop cracks due to drying shrinkage, ground movement, temperature changes and excessive loads. Cracks in concrete slabs such as sidewalks and driveways are unsightly and lower your property value. In addition to the negative impact on aesthetics, cracks can also lead to bigger issues. If not properly addressed, cracks in concrete can lead to problems such as leaking or flooding, which of course can lead to an indefinite amount of new problems.
Repairing cracks in concrete early on can save you hundreds to thousands of dollars in the future, not to mention a huge headache. If left alone, these cracks can grow where the concrete can no longer be salvaged and total replacement may be required.
