There is a concrete caulk just for that purpose---very stretchy.

The picture above is the side yard, it's a sort of wide boat parking area that's kind of V angled. Water can collect around that area. How would using a solid sealant affect an area like this? Would using a more porous material be better for drainage? I can see using a liquid sealant for my driveway since it's sloped and water just runs down to the street.Sika makes a self leveling product in tan and gray. If the spaces are deep, measure the width and buy backer rod to install in there. It should go down about 1/2" or so. Backer rod comes in widths of 3/8" to 3/4", maybe more. The concrete needs to be clean and dry or the material won't adhere to the sides.
It comes in 2 caulking tube sizes. If you have a lot of work, get the large tubes and a large caulking gun.
Yea, I know I could use a spray. But you have to be on top of it. You miss an application then ya got weeds that will have to be pulled. Even dead weeds are undesired.Roundup.![]()
Why? Next little beggar that pops up...spray him too.You miss an application then ya got weeds that will have to be pulled.
Which is why I'd like to just fill the cracks. Some type of porous material would be nice. Like I mentioned before, some of the "felt" like material, whatever it's called. Don't know the name, but I've seen it stuffed in a transition from the garage cement to the driveway cement.Anything you do can still harbor enough soil to propagate a weed.![]()
There's an extended control round-up that they say works for four months. Also you can sprinkle a pre-emergent weed killer in your joints in the early spring so stop things from growing in them.
