🌧️ How Laurel’s Weather Wreaks Havoc on Your Concrete—and What to Do About It

Maryland’s climate is brutal on concrete. From humid summers to icy winters, your driveway and walkways take a beating.

Weather-Driven Damage

• Rain and humidity: Accelerate erosion and mold growth.

• Snow and ice: Cause cracking from freeze-thaw stress.

• UV exposure: Weakens surface integrity over time.

Preventative Measures

• Apply a concrete sealant every 2–3 years.

• Ensure proper drainage to avoid pooling.

• Use concrete lifting to fix sunken slabs before water intrusion worsens

Pro Insight

Local contractors in Laurel recommend polymer-based sealants for better durability in humid conditions. Ask about eco-friendly options that resist mold and algae.
