2. Concrete Grooving/Grinding
• Unlikely as it seems, grinding and grooving
concrete is a great way to save money on
replacing worn concrete.
• Concrete grinding and grooving provide
greater traction, placing grooves in concrete
that has been smoothed by the elements.
3. Concrete Cutting
• You can also use a
concrete cutter or
concrete cutting
service to improve
your home!
• This will help you to
get rid of superfluous
concrete in your
home.
4. #1 Grinding Your Driveway
• Grinding may be
necessary to give your
driveway the traction it
needs without
completely replacing it.
• This can be a DIY or
hired out.
• If you DIY, keep the
surface even.
• Make sure you have
help.
5. #2 Downsizing Your Driveway
• If you want to make your driveway smaller
for some reason, you can cut away the most
inessential portions.
• If you DIY, make sure you have a way of
getting the excess concrete to the dump.
• Make measurements on the depth of the
concrete.
• Don’t overdo it! It’s easy to cut away excess
concrete, but more difficult to put it back.
6. #3 Removing Old Walkways
• Get rid of less
attractive walkways
by cutting them out
and replacing them
with bricks or
stepping stones.
• Or add value by
treating the walkway
with some color or
texture.
7. #4 Creating Egress Windows
• This a great project if
you need more
natural light in your
basement.
• Make sure to hire out
professionally for this
kind of work.
• It’s all too easy to
mess with your
home’s foundations
or hit a pipeline.
8. #5 Changing Up Your Patio
• Try cutting off portions of your concrete
patio to give it a different look.
• If you want a larger garden space, you can
downsize your patio.
• You can also grind your patio so that it has a
better surface for kids playing in water
during the summer.
9. #6 Garage Remodel
• If your garage floor is
made of concrete, it
will need
maintenance.
• Grind it or groove it
for traction.
• You may need to cut
portions of it if you
have a remodel that
extends to your
garage.
