Q: How long should concrete last before cracking?

• <div><p>Concrete cracks can occur at any time. Many cracks actually happen within a few hours or days of pouring the concrete because of mistakes made during the process; here are a few <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-freshly-poured-concrete-normally-crack.htm">reasons for freshly poured concrete cracks</a>.</p><p>If you&rsquo;re nervous about causing cracks when pouring concrete, hire a pro to handle the work, rather than tackling it yourself. You can also prevent ongoing cracks by taking care of your concrete pathway or driveway with a little sealer. Here&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-often-should-you-seal-a-driveway.htm">how often to reseal your driveway</a> to reduce the risk of cracks.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to sand concrete before painting?

• <div><p>You should sand concrete before painting, as it helps remove any irregularities and pieces that stick out from the surface. This not only helps the paint look better but it prevents any unwanted water absorption.</p></div>

Q: How long does dry pour concrete take to cure?

• <div><p>Dry pour concrete cures in the same amount of time as wet pour concrete, so you&rsquo;re looking at four to six hours for it to harden, 24 to 48 hours before you can remove forms and expose the slab to foot traffic, a week before it can stand up to vehicle traffic, and about a month for it to be fully cured. </p></div>

Q: Should I use water when drilling concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, using water when drilling concrete can help keep dust from clogging the hole and prevent your drill bit from wearing out, although you don&rsquo;t need to spray water on the concrete while drilling. Water can also lubricate the bit and help keep it cool since drilling into concrete can generate a lot of friction and heat. </p></div>

Q: Can tree roots break through concrete?

• <div><p>Tree roots don&rsquo;t necessarily break through concrete on their own, but they can certainly take advantage of existing cracks, even very small ones. As roots grow, they expand the cracks, making them larger and leading to serious and costly foundation damage. It&rsquo;s a good idea to have repairs on any <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/quarter-inch-crack-my-foundation-major-concern.htm">foundation cracks you&rsquo;re concerned about</a>. </p></div>

My driveway was totally cracked. I was scared I was going to have to replace the entire driveway. Luckily DryLock Pros was able to use the existing driveway, grind it down, and apply a new surface coat of concrete. My driveway looks brand new. Well worth the money. Highly recommend.
