Concrete Maintenance

Doing proper maintenance on your concrete driveways, sidewalks, patios and steps etc. will help make your concrete last longer and look better.

We recommend sealing control joints and cracks with a polyurethane caulking (Vulkem - limestone color) is a extremely great caulk to use on these applications.

Concrete Sealing procedure:

1. Clean out all cracks as best as you can use a high-pressure garden hose nozzle, grinder or screwdriver works well. You want to clean cracks, at least one quarter to 1/2" deep.
   
   
2. With cracks that or more than a 1/4 deep. You can fill with silica sand, play sand, backer rod or spray foam. Spray foam works great for large vertical areas like steps pulling away from stoops after spray foam sets up, cut off even or a quarter-inch below concrete then it is ready for sealing.
   
   
3. Before placing polyurethane caulking in cracks, make sure both sides of crack are free from dirt or any loose caulking.
   
   
4. Place approximately one quarter to a half-inch of polyurethane caulking in crack or joint and smooth with finger or putty knife

Concrete Tips:

If you choose to use Vulkem (small tube non- self leveler) needs to be spread out with finger or putty knife. Large to be a self leveler, this can be used on level surfaces like garage floors or driveways that are level. After sealing is done only on (non-self leveler) sprinkle play sand on caulk.

This will help blend in with concrete to darken. Also, it will prevent sticking to shoes in case someone would walk on this before setup is complete.
