a slab,

| » This past winter has caused
our concrete patio to heave.
What can we do to prevent

this in the future?

,*Concrete slabs poured for patios,

® sidewalks or large areas like driveways
should have the ground around graded so
water drains away from not towards the
concrete. If water doesn’t drain away it will run up to the side of
the slab and then migrate under concrete to sit and wait for cold
fresty nights causing frost heave. This will sometimes catise
major cracks in concrete. To correct a drainage problem around

dig a trench beside the concrete slab or sidewalk 8” wide

and 18” deep. Line this trench with black fandscape fabric
leaving enough overlap at the tep te cover the width of the
trench, fill the trench within 2” of the top with drain rock (not
crushed rock). Fold the landscape fabric overtop of the drain
rock topping, off with topsoil and lawn seed or turf. This allows
the water to drain off the slab and ground water running
towards the slab to run down into the trench dissipating into the
ground not under the slab to cause frost heave.
