Hi all,
I was looking to seal the gap between my sidewalk and foundation that runs the length of the house on both sides before winter this year. It is a wider gap, probably a 1/2" or more most of the way. I have been able to get foam backer rod in and a polyurethane concrete sealant product is what I plan on using.
But in spots the gap is much wider. Talking 2-3" wide and maybe 4-5" deep before it hits anything. Are there any suggested means of tackling these particular spots? I thought about filling it with something (sand) so that it's not too deep for the backer rod and then just twisting a few rods together so that they cover the width better, then going over with the sealant.
I'm sure ya'll have some suggestions and I'd love to hear them!
Thanks,
Scott
