Designs with non-geometric shapes have been around for many many years and these designs on Driveways, Patios, Lanai’s and Pooldecks are perfect designs for cracks in the concrete. You can incorporate the surface cracks to be part of the design layout, but the Arc dictatorship doesn’t understand this so they recently have denied these designs because they are not educated enough on them. I have tried a few times to get a meeting with the developer and he / she refused to see me all I want to do is explain these designs and how they benefit homeowners with cracks in their concrete, but they refuse to see me. To me that’s not right. They need to be educated but refuse. So, I say if you want something done and you feel strongly about it, just do it and don’t involve them. If they are unwilling to be educated why bother!

So you are ok with having to remove or spend more money, or pay fines!
So one needs to admit if you go rogue, without ARC, you may face a costly outcome.
Then again if you have cracked driveway, a texture would take care of any superficial issues, without going the geo route
