it's a 2 car drive way with big cracks due to hot summers and cold winters. so many creative people on this site, i can't be the only one with this problem. just hate to spend 4500.00 for a new driveway!
Your hardware store has a tube of stuff FOR driveway cracks. The lady next door used it, then painted her driveway, ( I recommend concrete stain though) it looks nice.
There are also companies that do this, the guy across the street had THAT done!

Also anyone have any ideas about perking up a cement front steps with rust spots with an added cement step down. The railings are rusty, too. Some of the cement has worn away. Is there a way to cover it with a nice stone or brick for not too much money ?
