    Corner/Wedge Crack repair
    Thanks for the help in previously posted questions.

    What's the best way to repair a corner/wedge crack in a slab on grade, brick faced home? These are extremely common here in south/central Texas... nearly every house in my subdivision has them.

    OK... I've worked on this one now.

    I chipped out the crack as best I could without doing too much additional damage to the corner wedge. I then plastered it up with what is becoming my favorite product - Quikrete vinyl concrete patching compound. The repair looks pretty good - doesn't match the old stuff, but it looks and seems to be pretty solid.
