SLAB MAINTENANCE
Concrete is one of the most durable building materials, but it does require occasional repair and maintenance to prolong the longevity of its lifecycle. It is best to tackle concrete problems as soon as you discover them as repair projects can span a wide range, from sealing a surface to replacing an entire structure. However, the most common slab maintenance and repairs are filling cracks and repairing surface damages.
Owning a home or business means being responsible for the upkeep and safety of your property including sidewalks and driveways to patios and foundations. There are a lot of concrete areas around your property that should be properly maintained. The following are a few maintenance tips that will keep your concrete looking good and functioning soundly.
Annual Cleaning - The principle foundation to maintaining concrete. Unfortunately, rain alone will not provide adequate cleaning. A good cleaning with a mild detergent, pressure washer and push broom at least once a year will help keep grease, grime, stains and discolorations at bay.
Sealant - After scrubbing and drying, applying a sealant to the surface will provide a protective barrier against surface damage, UV protection and defense against elements.
Routine Maintenance - Regular inspection and monitoring of surfaces is a proactive way to catch and repair minor cracks and defects before they become more serious and costly repairs.
