Cracks: Concrete will crack. We don’t like it either but it’s going to happen so we CANNOT guarantee that concrete will not crack, even if all precautions have been taken. Control joints are cut into the concrete slab surface within 48 hours after the concrete is placed. However, sometimes cracks occur before the joints are cut. We do everything we can to prevent cracking. There is no guarantee that the concrete will not develop crack(s) in other locations and later on. A hairline crack is not a warranty issue.

Flaking or Popping: While concrete is very durable, it is not always without flaws. Harsh weather may cause the surface of your concrete to flake or pop. Flakes pops will not compromise the integrity of the concrete. We may repair or replace our work if a minimum of 30% of the total work area is flaked or popped, for driveways due to salt on the road and then it washing off the vehicle to the driveway. If repair or replacement is required, we will replace only affected area.

Settling: It is possible that exterior concrete may settle. When concrete is placed we compact the gravel surface 4-6” deep below the slab, but this is no
guarantee that concrete will not settle. We cannot warranty against settling because what’s below the gravel surface is beyond our control.

Frost Heave & Cracking: Southern Ontario is in a severe weather region. Throughout the winter there are many freeze-thaw cycles. During these freeze-thaw cycles it is possible that concrete will heave and most likely settle back to its normal elevation again. Concrete is susceptible to cracking during a frost heave and therefore it’s not a warranty issue.

Discolouration: It is NOT possible to match the exact colour of your existing sidewalk, porch or driveway, etc. Sometimes different pours to your driveway might not match especially if placed on different days. Most of these colour variations are minor and most will fade over time. If you are considering replacing only a section or sections of an existing driveway, patio or sidewalk, please be aware that a color difference will exist. We can make no guarantee that our work will match your existing product.
