While on the topic of concrete, I walked around Aqua the other day. Not enough control joints! The long horizontal pieces have a lot of cracking going on. But the smaller slabs are doing just fine. You'll notice there's a pattern on the pavement of square and rectangular pieces. It's a picture perfect academic example as to why control joints are important. For now they can probably seal them up and it will be ok, but if it were my own driveway or sidewalk I'd go nuts.

Some contractors will warranty a driveway against cracks, wonder if Aqua has something like that.
