Do you have cracks in your concrete slab?

What Causes Concrete to Crack?
There are various potential reasons why you will get both hairline and large cracks in concrete. Some of these reasons are;
-
Heavy trucks or construction work very close to your home
-
Possible burst water pipe underneath the area

Most cracks in concrete are found in basements and external masonary walls.
