Driveway Cracking

A damaged sidewalk can easily hurt the curb appeal to your home. Fortunately, sidewalk repair can be done yourself. To repair a sidewalk you will need to follow these steps:

1. Determine the type of damage you’re dealing with. Some damage is hard to repair and other isn’t Most types of sidewalk cracks are easy to fix. Big sections of sidewalk that have heaved and broken into pieces are not easy to fix and will most likely require a contractor to fix the problem

2. Determine why the damage occurred. Either there has been a lack of control joints or sometimes tree roots can be the cause.

If your sidewalk is cracking you might one to consider installing a few extra control joints. You can install control joints by using a masonry blade to cut lines in the concrete but do not cut completely through the sidewalk but rather about a 1/2 inch into it. These control joints allow the concrete to expand and contract in certain weather conditions.

If tree roots seem to be the problem, clear around the tree roots and cut them away with a pruning saw. Be very careful though, this can stunt the growth of the tree and sometimes even kill the tree.

What material do I use to repair my sidewalk?

The type of material you use depends on how large the crack is. For little cracks, you can use concrete grout. For larger cracks they can be fixed with caulk and the largest cracks will need to be repaired with concrete patching compound.

Sidewalk cracking can be a potential safety trip hazard at your new home and should be corrected to avoid accidental falls and trip hazards.

Certainty's Inspection Report

The main things I valued in your inspection were the thoroughness of your inspection process from roof to attic to basement and from structural to electric to plumbing and more. Also, it was quite helpful to receive your summary presentation at the end of the inspection backed up by your computer presentation with photo. Finally, your well organized binder which documented the inspection and which included the report in electronic form on a CD provided a record for long term reference.
With Certainty’s Inspection Report, I was able to use the information directly to my benefit in the final transaction for the purchase of the inspected home. Tom Kelty New Albany Indiana 47150
