When Repairing a Driveway Made of Concrete

Concrete is the most common type of driveway. Concrete is one of the strongest construction materials around, and it forms a solid, durable surface that can give you as much as 50 years of service.

The quality of concrete can vary from one driveway to the next, based on factors such as how well it was cured after being poured, how much water was in the concrete mix (excess water can weaken the material), and whether the area contains clay soil, which tends to move slightly and crack concrete slabs.
