Concrete cracks when the base under it moves. We prepare and compact the base, set the slope for drainage, and only then pour.
The base is the job
Concrete cracks when the base under it moves. We prepare and compact the base, set the slope for drainage, and only then pour.
Joints and reinforcement
Control joints let the concrete crack where we want it to, and reinforcement handles the loads. We plan both for the size of the pour.
Finish and curing
The finish, broom, smooth, or exposed, sets the look and the slip resistance. Proper curing is what gives concrete its strength, so we do not rush it.
How thick should a driveway be?
It depends on the load, but a residential driveway is typically poured thicker than a walkway. We size it to the use.
Why does concrete crack?
Most cracks come from a moving base or missing control joints. We address both so cracking stays controlled.
