Mastic gap can be a great solution for repairing a crack in concrete. It is flexible enough to give when the surface moves or shifts, and yet durable enough to hold tight over time. Its adhesive qualities help it to not just cover the crack, but actually seal it to keep moisture and other elements from penetrating further into the concrete. This makes repairs with mastic gap especially useful for outdoor surfaces where exposure to weather is an issue. In addition, mastic gap also looks good once applied, making any repair blend in nicely with its environment.
