    The sidewalk that leads up to our house has a crack going acrossed. Actually it's two cracks coming from opposite sides and meeting in the middle. How does one take care of sidewalk cracks?

    There are numerous concrete patching materials (HD or Lowes will have them). Odds are you will not be able to match the existing color of the sidewalk. If you must have consistency, then you would need to rip out the existing sidewalk and repour.

    Yeah I am not up for paying to redo a 3 year old sidewalk. If I patch it - it will look worse - I mean right now I can live with it because it does not look bad but I am guessing the cracking will just get worse over time as the elements get into the existing cracks. So we will have to patch it at some point. Thanks for help.
