Question the concrete slabs on my driveway are pulling apart leaving a 4 in+ gap between slabs. How do we repair the gaps?
Answer Karen,
Before you repair the gaps you need to stop the movement. This can be done by embedding rebar into the slabs and epoxy them in place. You may have to bend rebar into a U shape, drill holes on the side of the slab, insert the rebar then epoxy. You could also cut slots into each slab aligned with eachother, lay rebar in the slots and epoxy them in place.
Then you can mix Quickrette cement and fill the gap. Good luck.
