In this video I'm resurfacing a very badly damaged concrete sidewalk.
The concrete is spalled, pitted and salt damaged to a point where it may be better to just break it out and re-pour new. But I'm going to show you how you can fix concrete that's this damaged in case you need to fix or resurface your sidewalk, patio, or walkway.
The basic steps are as follows:
Step 1 0:01 Evaluate the concrete to come up with a plan
Step 2 0:10 Prep the concrete
Step 3 7:40 Patch the bad areas
Step 4 15:19 Resurface the concrete
These are the basic steps I use when I'm asked to repair a concrete walkway like this one.
There are some more little details in between these steps you'll see in the video but this formula will get it done in most cases.
I'm using Rapid Set Cement All and Mortar MIx for my repairs and resurfacing on this project. These materials are available to most of you through Home Depot.
