Common questions

Can a cracked concrete driveway be patched?
Small surface damage may be repairable, but movement underneath can make a patch fail. Ask what caused the crack first.
When can I drive on new concrete?
Curing depends on the mix, weather and design. Follow the concreter’s written instructions for your slab rather than a general number of days.
Does a new slab need drainage?
The surface needs a planned fall and water outlet. Show the contractor where water flows during rain, especially near the house.
