Bricks, Masonry, Asphalt and Concrete - Sloppy Concrete pad

Hello, I have a concrete slab measureing 6x3 which is like a step down from the front porch to the driveway that was done so sloppy. There are rock visable and touchable? I do not go barefoot often but there is no way to walk on this slab without hurting your feet, that is how bad it is. There was roofing tar covering it when I bought the house. Real attractive, huh!

I am a single women and want toknow if there is something that can be spread over this with 2 or 3 coats rather than going thru the concrete procedure? I am not afraid to try new things, but I do not want to try concrete. I have watched enough to know I do not care if I do not know how to do this. Thank you:rolleyes:

by rocks showing, do you mean there is no concrete coverage in this area?

or there are rocks sticking out of the concrete?

Rocks sticking out of the concrete. Thank you.

try renting (or buying) an angle grinder, and grind them down

Ok, I have no idea what a angle grinder is, but OK. I will look into it. Thanks for your help.

just go to your hardware store, and tell them you want to grind down some rocks on your driveway. if you go to the tool section of this website and explain your problem, you will probably get some good advice on what to buy


Good luck, and tell me how it went.

sorry, here is the pic

sorry, I cant seem to get the picture to show up, so try this link

Thank you so much! Now that I see what it looks like, I am pretty sure that my dad has one of those. I saw it just a couple of weeks ago and wondered what it was. I will let you know how it turns out. :p
