Shrinkage Cracks
Typically seen on the surface and are under 1/16th of an inch wide. It is caused mostly by the way the concrete dries.
Structural Cracks
Structural cracks vary size. The most common reason for this type of cracks is a shift in the soil or a poorly mixed concrete pour. Basically, they are created by shear forces and produce harshly uneven surfaces. These can become more complicated to fix.
Freeze/Thaw Cycles
Water expands about 9 percent when it freezes. There is moisture in the concrete and if that freezes it produces pressure in its pores. If the pressure developed exceeds the tensile strength of the concrete, the cavity will then dilate and eventually rupture. Some areas of Seattle see snow yearly. Although the snowfall is not too significant, having a careful installation will help to minimize problems with temperature variations. That is done by using properly designed expansion or isolation joints, followed by proper detailing. In case you need to use a deicer, be aware that some further damage the concrete. In this case, experts agree that calcium is the least harmful to concrete.

How To Repair Concrete
The first aspect to repair concrete is to assess the type of damage. That is because different types of concrete damage require different types of repairs. A small crack on a slab may just need to be filled in a leveled. That may not be enough on bigger cracks. In those cases you may need concrete resurfacing Seattle to add a new layer. Concrete refinishing is only needed if the damage are stains and discoloration. That is very common in commercial spaces. In rare cases, the damage may already be too significant, and you may need to replace your driveway for example. Needless to say, ensure that you have an expert such as Concrete Seattle Pros analyzing the damage before promising a specific technique.
