(BPT) - ¿Ha visto alguna vez una vivienda con un hermoso césped, una jardinería exuberante, un exterior refinado y bien mantenido... y un horrible camino de entrada con el concreto agrietado? ¿Por qué razón incluso las personas expertas y eficientes en hacer trabajos por su cuenta se irritan cuando tienen que reparar el concreto?
“El concreto asusta a muchas personas”, afirma Bob Schmidt, gerente nacional de productos de Sakrete, fabricante de productos para reparación de concreto. “Existe el prejuicio injusto de que reparar concreto es mucho trabajo, pero en realidad no es difícil. En muchos casos, si puede usar una pistola calafateadora para resina epóxica, puede reparar las grietas en el concreto”.
