Q: How do you fix spalling concrete steps?

• <div><p>If your concrete steps have crumbled or chipped, you can fix them by removing any chips or flakes, cleaning and wetting the affected area, applying a concrete bonding agent, and finally applying new concrete, usually in the form of Portland cement. For widespread damage, you can consider concrete resurfacing instead. For fixing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/concrete-spalling.htm">concrete spalling</a> that has led to deep damage, you might need to remove damaged material, add structural supports, and pour new concrete into a mold.</p></div>

Q: How much foundation sinking is too much?

• <div><p>Most houses are expected to settle over time, but foundation sinking of more than a few inches or uneven sinking of more than an inch for every 20 feet is cause for concern. Any significant or uneven sinking should be assessed by a professional to determine the cause and perform any necessary repairs. </p></div>

Q: Can you fix concrete cracks yourself?

It might seem challenging to determine which product to use and the tools necessary for the project, but with a bit of background, homeowners can restore their cracked concrete easily.</p></div>
