Walkway Cracks Resolved – PCCN
Walkway cracks are every property manager’s nightmare as they can turn a small problem into a big liability issue. They, unfortunately, happen for various reasons, so they need to be dealt with accordingly. For example, when the concrete dries, it shrinks a little, causing it to crack. If a mixture has too much water, it’s more likely to crack as it dries up.
If a sidewalk has walkway cracks or sustains noticeable damage, it needs to get fixed. Precision Concrete Cutting provides a patented engineering process that leaves a clean and fast attractive finish to your sidewalk. The advantages of using our services include our effective cutting method which not only gives your walkway an ADA compliant slope, but it won’t leave scarring or rough surfaces. Concrete grinders and scrabblers might be less expensive than replacement, but they’re more costly than our cutting method. Grinders are also unable to reach the edges of the sidewalk effectively enough to remove the trip hazard.
While builders will do what they can to avoid this from the start, it’s still bound to happen. They can place contraction joints in fresh concrete with saws, special grooving tools or plastic strips called zip-strips, but they have to make sure that the joints are deep enough and placed in fresh concrete before the concrete dries and has a chance to create its own joints.
Regardless of why a walkway cracks, whoever is responsible for repairs after it is built needs to take into effect how some damages to sidewalks will affect the people who use it. They can become trip hazards and therefore have to be dealt with as soon as possible. Getting these trip hazards fixed, as opposed to replacing the walkways altogether, is cost-effective, safe, and even environmentally responsible.
