Revitalize Your Driveway: Resurface Instead of Replace
Transform Your Driveway Without Breaking the Bank
Instead of replacing a cracked or chipped driveway, consider resurfacing it for a fresh, durable look that makes a great first impression. Resurfacing is a cost-effective and efficient way to enhance the appearance and strength of your driveway without the hassle and expense of complete removal and replacement.
The Easy Resurfacing Solution
Using a Quikrete Concrete Resurfacer, you can apply a long-lasting layer that withstands heavy traffic on driveways, sidewalks, walkways, and patios. The process requires a few simple tools: a long-handled squeegee, a five-gallon bucket, and the concrete resurfacer. Available in 20-pound pails and 40- and 80-pound bags, a 40-pound bag covers approximately 90 square feet at a thickness of 1/16 inch.
Step-by-Step Resurfacing Guide
1. Prepare the Surface:
- Clean the driveway thoroughly to ensure the resurfacer bonds well.
- Use a pressure washer to remove dirt and debris, and saturate the surface. Ensure no standing water remains.
2. Mix the Resurfacer:
- Follow the package instructions to blend the resurfacer with water until it reaches a pourable consistency.
3. Apply the Mixture:
- Pour the mix onto the driveway and spread it evenly with a long-handled squeegee. Scrub it into the surface for better adhesion.
4. Finish Touches:
- For a slip-resistant, professional finish, use a broom to add texture within the first 5 minutes of application by sweeping across the entire area.
5. Curing Time:
- Wait at least 6 hours before allowing foot traffic and 24 hours for vehicles. In cooler temperatures, allow more curing time.
- Protect from rain for at least 6 hours. In cool or damp conditions, extend this time.
6. Additional Tips:
- For a decorative touch, add Quikrete Cement Color to the mixture.
- For thicker applications, apply additional thin layers or use a trowel after the initial squeegee layer.
By resurfacing your driveway, you can achieve a renewed, attractive entrance to your home without the significant cost and effort of replacing the entire surface.
