Cost Effective Sidewalk Repair
Replacing a sidewalk or walkway can become expensive so why not consider cost effective sidewalk repair? Sunken concrete worsens with each season as the lower concrete slab collects water. This results in soil erosion between and underneath the concrete slabs. The freeze and thaw of one winter-summer cycle is enough to move and crack entire concrete sidewalk slabs. If you are in a situation where your sidewalk or walkway has cracks or trip hazards, there are a few options.
You could always replace the concrete slabs, but that is not the most cost effective sidewalk repair option. Replacing entire concrete sidewalk slabs means hiring a crew to break it up, remove it, set the foundation, and repour the concrete which means spending a lot of money. Repairing it may make more sense. The method of Mudjacking consists of a cement solution injected through 2 inch holes drilled into the concrete, causing it to expand and raising it to fall back into place. This means it’s ideal for smaller jobs such as raising porches, steps, and other small concrete surfaces.
Scabbling, in modern construction, is a mechanical process of removing a thin layer of concrete from a structure which is achieved by compressed air powered machines. It can help reduce stone by roughening it up. This often will limit the operator’s chance of inhaling dangerous silica dust.
Not a lot of people know which option to go with and the outcomes each option can bring.
