023: Fixing Concrete Driveway Cracks
b'
Paul\\u2019s driveway has developed cracks.\\xa0
\\n\\xa0
\\nHe\\u2019d like to know how to fix the small cracks and fill in the expansion joints.
\\n\\xa0
\\nSmall cracks can be filled in with Quikrete or Sakrete concrete crack filler.
\\n\\xa0
\\nVisit their sites and search for concrete crack filler
\\n\\xa0
\\n\\n\\xa0
\\n\\n\\xa0
\\nExpansion joints are the large joints between two adjacent concrete slabs. They exist to prevent the slabs from cracking during severe hot or cold situations. \\xa0
\\n\\xa0
\\nSealing the joints is necessary to prevent water from getting down underneath the concrete. If this happens during the winter the concrete can crack if the water freezes.
\\n\\xa0
\\nNOT GOOD.
\\n\\xa0
\\nI actually have a tutorial on how to fill in expansion joints with foam backer road and SikaFlex, which is a self-leveling sealant.

\\nIt\\u2019s easy to apply to pressure treated wood but first clean the wood surface.
