Can you pour concrete over a cracked driveway?

• <div><p>You can pour concrete over a cracked driveway, but it’s important to address the underlying issue first. Pouring new concrete over cracks without fixing any structural problems may lead to more cracks reappearing. A <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/driveway-repair/">local driveway repair pro</a> can assess whether crack repairs or driveway replacement is necessary before laying new concrete.</p></div>

Can you turn normal concrete into exposed aggregate?

• <div><p>You can apply an exposed aggregate finish to existing traditional concrete, but you’ll need to resurface the concrete and include aggregate in the top layer of concrete. You’ll also need to prepare the surface beforehand to ensure a good bond between the materials. Adding exposed aggregate is a job best handled by a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/concrete-companies/">concrete professional</a>.</p></div>

How thick should you pour concrete over existing concrete?

• <div><p>Concrete should be at least 2 inches thick to maintain its stability and quality. Most concrete slabs fall between 4 and 6 inches thick, but you should be careful not to make the new slab too high or heavy. If you're considering a stamped concrete overlay, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/7-tips-hire-best-stamped-concrete-contractor.htm">hire an experienced stamped concrete contractor</a> to determine the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-thick-should-a-concrete-patio-be.htm">ideal concrete thickness</a>. </p></div>

He found a pipe that was put into concrete, out of place. It was the electrical ground. He said they could put a box to cover it with access through the garage, but said the best thing to do and what he would write up, is to break up the concrete it was in and bend the thing back into the wall...
