Will wet concrete bond to dry concrete?

• <div><p>No, wet concrete will not bond to dry concrete without an additional bonding agent. The common alternative is adding a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-anybody-use-sand-base-they-pour-concrete-driveway.htm">sand or gravel layer under a concrete slab</a> to enhance bonding and create a stable foundation. The right choice depends on the height and thickness of your two slabs, local laws, and the use of the specific concrete slab. </p></div>

Can you put pavers over concrete?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-installing-pavers-over-concrete-bad-idea.htm">You can put pavers over concrete</a> following a similar procedure as above, but there are a few additional risks you need to be aware of—like stability, drainage, and the patio’s thickness. Once you lay a paver patio over concrete, it will be nearly impossible to treat any issues that your concrete may face, like cracks or water pooling. So while you may save some time and money on concrete removal and site prep, it may cost you more in the long run.</p></div>

Q: Can I do my own concrete stamping?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to pour your own concrete slab and stamp it yourself, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. Pouring concrete is a relatively simple operation, but for larger projects, you&rsquo;ll have to pay for concrete delivery anyway. From there, you&rsquo;ll need to make sure you get the proper thickness to avoid cracking and sinking, and then you&rsquo;ll need to work quickly to get the pattern stamped on the surface at the right time&mdash;too early, and the pattern may settle back down, but too late, and it won&rsquo;t set at all. Leave the work to a concrete professional for the best results.</p></div>

Q: What are other garage floor concrete sealers besides epoxy?

• <div><p>Other garage floor concrete sealers besides epoxy include solvent-based acrylic and polyacrylic sealers, quick-drying polymer or polyurethane sealers, and scratch-resistant polyurea floor coatings that are ideal for exterior applications. These sealants come in basic clear forms and more decorative options, varying in price accordingly. </p></div>

Q: When is concrete moisture testing most necessary?

• <div><p>When you are laying <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-humidity-affects-your-hardwood-flooring.htm">hardwood flooring</a>&mdash;or any other material that does not flex well with humidity&mdash;you will want to check the moisture level of your subfloor before proceeding. Flooring like luxury vinyl tile and bamboo performs better than more rigid materials in environments where moisture might be present. However, thorough testing is always an excellent preventative measure to control and monitor water in your home.</p></div>

"Elite Bobcat concrete came out to give an estimate on 7/11/24. Agreed to the estimate for 2700.00 total on same day. Provider showed up on 7/15 to dig out sidewalk, his equipment didn’t work so they dug it out by hand. Then they framed the sidewalk so It would be ready to pump on 7/17. They were going to start at 12 noon. We got a call from the concrete company saying we needed to pay them for the concrete. (This was unknown to us at the time. We paid for it with a credit card. Elite Bobcat showed up without a pump that was included in the estimate. They wheelbarrow the entire 2.5 yards of concrete in. We were concerned that it would cause a mess on the existing sidewalk. They poured it and it was going to rain. They left us used plastic for us to cover the sidewalk if it rained hard. They said they would return the next day to finish pulling the wood form out. My husband paid them and even tipped all 3 workers as well as providing them water as needed. I would like to be reimbursed for the pump cost of $950.00 as well as 50.00 for removal and disposal of the wood. This was very upsetting to us as we were good to them. They were called a minimum of 3-8 times to determine when they would finish by picking up the wood from the framing. They never responded. I used another phone number and got the owner and he said just put the wood in the street."
