Any cheap way to repair damage on concrete from so-called "ice melt"?
Last January we were taking delivery of some large items. Of course, here in Wisconsin we have winter 10 months out of every twelve. I didn't want the delivery guys to fall on the copious ice on our concrete garage apron so I bought some "ice melt." IT DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING however what it did do is start eating away my concrete. It's in the seams of the concrete squares and week-by-week the crevasse is getting larger. OK,
it was my mistake. I should have read the bag more carefully but the damned things screamed "pet and human safe" all over the bag so I figured concrete was probably safe.
I contacted the company and, of course, they treated me like a cross-eyed step child.
So can anyone suggest anything I can apply to these seams to get their damned product to stop eating away my concrete seams? Yes, I had two resurfacers look at it and one quoted $6,000 for this lousy 20x20 foot hunk of concrete and the other estimated $25,000.
With what they're doing to us at the gas pumps and grocery stores these days my butt is just about as reamed-out as it can be, so the $6000 is OK for people with money but I am not one.
