I've got an 8" wide x 3" deep piece of curb that spalled off after being
struck by a plow. Do you think that a little mortar will hold it in
place?
I tried silicone caulk last year with pretty poor results.
TIA


Is this curb on public property? If so, send an e mail or registered letter
stating that there is an "imminent danger" of someone falling, and you will
get fast repairs. If someone DOES break an ankle on it, you have the proof
you notified them before the accident.

If it is yours, follow other poster's suggestions.


I'm not sure why some people are assuming that the curb in question is
not on the OP's property or that he needs persmission to try to repair
it. If it is his driveway he can obviously do whatever he wants. If
it is the curb at the street and he doesn't "own" it, he still has a
vested interest in it as it impacts the appearance of his property.

I fail to see the reason to notify any authority for gluing back a
chipped off piece of curb smaller than a paperback book. If anything,
he should send them a bill after it's done.
