*Curbs 4 Less is not liable for concrete cracks caused by water drainage and freezing under concrete pads. Water drainage must be diverted away from concrete.
**Use of salts or other de-icing chemicals may damage concrete. Curbs 4 Less warns against the use of salt, calcium, chloride, fertilizers, or commercially prepared de-icing chemicals on concrete surfaces. Salts aggravate freeze/thaw damage, causing the concrete surface to “flake” or spall off. Any substance containing ammonium sulfate or ammonium nitrate will chemically destroy the concrete surface. For safety, Curbs 4 Less recommends the use of clean traction sand where conditions are icy, as opposed to chemical de-icing. Because some areas use salt on city streets, melt-off of salty slush from your vehicle may also cause damage. Damage caused by de-icing chemicals is not covered by your warranty.
