Are you noticing cracks forming in your concrete driveway?Poured concrete is affordable and long-lasting, but it can suffer from cracks over time. You don’t have to live with these unsightly concrete driveway cracks! Tri-State Paving offers a brief guide on how to fix cracks in concrete driveways below.

Materials You Can Use to Fill Concrete Driveway Cracks

There are multiple products you can use to fix your concrete driveway.

• Concrete patch: A concrete patch is an inexpensive but temporary solution since the concrete driveway will expand and contract while the concrete patch remains brittle.
• Flexible concrete caulk: On the other hand, flexible concrete caulk will be able to handle the expansions and contractions of concrete and is a great long-term solution.
• Polyurea crack filler: This two-part crack filler is fast-drying and needs careful preparation before use. This liquid concrete crack filler is another excellent choice.

How to Fix Cracks in Concrete Driveways

Using any of these concrete crack repair products, you can easily fix cracks in your concrete driveway by following these simple steps.

• Clean the concrete cracks. It’s a good idea to clean out the cracks so that the filler will bond with the old concrete successfully. Sweeping and vacuuming the cracks will get rid of the dirt.
• Fill the crack with your concrete crack filler of choice according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Smooth the filler so that it is flush with the concrete surface.
• Optional: You can also use sand and small rocks to add texture to the concrete filler, should the crack be large enough.
