When to Repair or Replace Your Stone or Concrete Sidewalk and Steps
Concrete sidewalks and steps are durable, but over time they can show signs of wear and tear. If you’re wondering whether it’s time to repair or replace your concrete surfaces, here are five key indicators to look for:
- Multiple Repairs Already Performed - If your concrete sidewalk or steps have required several repairs over the years, it may be more cost-effective and safer to replace the surface entirely rather than continue patching it up.
- Aesthetic Changes - Concrete can fade or stain over time, and while minor discoloration may be normal, significant changes in appearance can affect your property’s curb appeal. If aesthetic issues are persistent, replacing the surface can restore your home’s exterior.
- Settling or Unevenness - Concrete that has settled or become uneven is not only unsightly but can also pose a safety hazard. If sections of your sidewalk or steps are noticeably sunken or slanted, it’s best to address these issues before they cause accidents.
- Chipping - Chipped concrete is a common problem, especially in high-traffic areas. While minor chipping can sometimes be repaired, extensive chipping may indicate the need for a full replacement to ensure long-term durability.
- Crumbling Edges - Crumbling edges and corners are signs of concrete deterioration. If the edges of your sidewalk or steps are breaking down, replacement is often the best option to prevent further damage
When installing or replacing your concrete, you have two main finish options: Broom finish and Trowel finish
- Broom Finish: This finish gives the surface a textured, non-slip look, which is ideal for outdoor areas like sidewalks and steps.
- Trowel Finish: A smooth, polished finish typically used for indoor concrete applications but can also be used for a sleek look on exterior surfaces.
