Should I Wait until Warmer Weather to Fix my Concrete?

  

When you think of the fall season, walking through crisp, colorful leaves probably comes to mind. Perhaps you are like me and immediately think of sipping on a warm pumpkin latte or picking out the perfect pumpkin at the patch. But I would imagine fixing your concrete is not the first, second, or even seventh thing that comes to your mind! Why associate concrete repair with the fall season? Because cracking, spalling (flaking or scaling), chipping, or breaking of concrete can be detrimental during the winter months. “Moisture is concrete’s biggest enemy.”

 

If your concrete issue is not addressed before wintertime hits, the overly saturated soil under the concrete will wash away, therefore causing the concrete to fail.  Not fixing your concrete can eventually cause foundation wall damage, tripping hazards, and uneven driveway slabs. So how do you fix the problem? Sealing is the key and is crucial to avoiding these issues.  When water underneath the concrete mixes with the soil and freezes, expansion occurs. This creates heaving, which leads to cracking and spalling.

 

Our penetrating sealer, called SealantPro, works by slowing down this process. Because this sealant bonds molecularly with the concrete, it protects against water, dirt, and other disruptors. And your concrete is useable just 6 hours later, as SealantPro quickly cures!

 

So whether you’re sipping on a latte or taking a stroll through the leaves, consider calling Sprague Structural Solutions at 1-844-743-4335 to repair your concrete before winter rears its ugly head!
