Step 1: Remove VCT, Ceramic, or vinyl floor coverings.
Step 2: Saw cut parallel lines to the crack at a depth of no less than 1.5 inches. Ideally 30% of the slab depth.
Step 3: Chip out the concrete between the saw cuts. Clean the surface well with a wire brush and vacuum.
Step 4: Add Roadware 10 Minute Concrete Mender and Sand to the finished grade. Also use Concrete Mender to repair the underlaying crack. See Concrete Mender™ Bulk Application Instructions.
Step 5: Replace the floor treatment and open to store traffic.
