Your driveway is your home's first impression to the neighborhood. As the pattern of remodeling older houses continues to grow; a damaged, cracked garage can be a neglected improvement project as a result of the work and expense of removing and replacing the concrete or asphalt. A far more cost-effective solution is always to repair-and strengthen-a entrance by resurfacing the cement.

a With a straightforward squeegee application, the Quikrete Concrete Resurfacer offers a tough, wear-resistant surface designed to withstand heavy traffic on sidewalks, walkways, driveways and porches.
