    Chipping concrete usually happens due to freeze-thaw cycles, moisture damage, poor installation, heavy impact, or low-quality concrete mix. Small chips can often be repaired using a concrete patch or resurfacer, while larger damaged areas may require professional repair or replacement. To prevent chipping concrete in the future, it’s important to seal the surface, control water drainage, and avoid using harsh de-icing chemicals during winter.
