In this block entry, the professional Atlanta concrete driveway installation service team here at Atlanta Concrete will detail the major signs that indicate that you need to get your concrete driveway repaired.
Cracking
Visible cracks in your driveway indicate that you need professional concrete driveway repair. These cracks form on the surface of your concrete, and can harm your concrete foundation and structural integrity the longer they stay unrepaired. Concrete cracks allow water to penetrate the lower layers of your concrete, causing extensive progressive damage.
Uneven Concrete Surfacing
When the soil under your concrete is unstable, concrete slabs can sink and become uneven, causing seriously dangerous tripping hazards. Improper land grading using concrete installation or improperly compacted soil can cause this, creating voids that lower the level of support the concrete slabs get.
Concrete Discoloration
Since your concrete driveway is exposed to weather and moisture, it can rapidly accumulate staining and dirt. This can strip the concrete’s protective coating, leading to rust, discoloration, or darkening. Our team can assess whether concrete discoloration is simply a cosmetic issue or indicative of a more serious structural problem.
Concrete Chipping
Spalling chips away at concrete. This is often caused by too much water added to the concrete mixture during installation. When concrete is improperly cured it can also cause chipping. Our team can resurface your concrete driveway to create a smooth and perfect finish and surface again.
