Why are there cracks in concrete?

• Some cracks are meant to be there. They are called control joints and are typically cut in after the concrete is poured to prevent random cracking.
• Random cracks are often caused by stress on concrete such a heavy load on top or often a void underneath the slab.

Why should cracks in concrete be repaired?

• cracks in a concrete slab can enable water to penetrate and make voids underneath the slab which in turn, will cause settling.
• Unrepaired cracks can deteriate to the point of no longer being repairable.
• Repaired cracks prevent unsightly weeds from growing up and needing to be pulled.
• In the winter snow melt gets in the cracks, freezes and expands causing the cracks to widen.
