Repairing window well blocks
I have an older home, circa 1957. The builder made window wells for
the basement windows out of cinder blocks stacked & cemented on top of each other. The tops of some of the blocks has worn away and occasionally lets rain water get up over the worn/broken edges. I'd like to repair the tops of these blocks or at least just cover and level off the entire multi-block surface with cement or similar. The blocks, being old, are a fairly dark gray color so I suppose I could go with a mix of portland cement / sand / gravel. Any thoughts on the correct materials to use and ratios of those materials? Thanks! Walt |
