Answers: How do I repair a large crack in a concrete driveway?

• Concrete driveway crack repair
• Backer rod installation
• Tremco Vulkem 45 SSL sealant application
• Concrete surface preparation

What it concludes

• Clean both edges of the concrete crack thoroughly with a screwdriver, wire brush, and vacuum before applying backing and sealant.
• Choose a backer rod that is about one-eighth larger than the measurement of your gap to ensure it holds securely.
• Do not apply Tremco Vulkem 45 SSL in direct sunlight if concrete temperatures exceed the 40 to 110 degrees Fahrenheit specification range to avoid bubbling.
• Apply sand over the sealant about 10 to 15 minutes after it settles to blend the repair with the surrounding concrete.
