Properly Caring for Your Concrete Can extend the life for years to come
Concrete is an expensive but necessary investment for any homeowner. What many people people don't realize is that a few simple steps can be taken to extend the life of your concrete. In Utah we experience harsh winters that take a toll on all concrete surfaces. Often times micro cracks form that are difficult to se in the beginning.
Overtime, the micro cracks get small amounts of moisture that penetrates and freezes causing the crack to expand and allow more water to penetrate accelerating the damage. If not properly sealed, these cracks will rapidly decrease the life of your concrete, including leading to bigger issues such as sinking concrete. It’s important to address these issues in the early stages.Â
Sealing a concrete crack is something any homeowner can do with a little elbow grease and a few tools from your local hardware store. If you don’t feel comfortable with the repair, give us a call and we can set up a time to take care of that fix for you.Â
