With spring approaching, homeowners should be considering what they can do to remove harmful ice melt products from their concrete driveways, sidewalks and patios. Also consider how to protect them in the future.
Concrete is the most used product in construction in the world. Although it is used for its excellent life span it is not indestructible. With rising cost in construction, it only makes sense to get the most life out of your concrete. With a little care and maintenance, you can get better life from your concrete and reduce the risk of failures.
Even if you use deicers products labeled “safe” for concrete, the products used by state, county and city road crews are corrosive to concrete. As a rule of thumb if it melts ice and snow chemically it is not good for your concrete.
After any snow or winter storm, you rinse your vehicles of these harmful chemicals to prevent rust. Driveways and concrete surfaces need to be rinsed of these also. The moisture containing these products is absorbed by your concrete and this creates the flaking and pitting of your concrete.
