Question: Why are cracks developing in the driveway, basement floor, garage floor, and sidewalk? Should I be concerned?
Answer: Cracks in concrete are a normal occurrence and typically not a cause for concern, as they are not structural. These cracks are often the result of natural shrinkage in the concrete or seasonal changes in temperature and precipitation. Hairline cracks are generally accepted within industry standards. However, if you notice more significant cracking—such as basement or garage floor cracks of 4mm or greater, or driveway cracks of 6mm or greater—these may require attention. Such cracks can be repaired if reported within the one-year warranty period, so be sure to schedule a service appointment if needed.
