Q: What salt doesn't ruin concrete?

• <div><p>While all ice melts that contain chemicals can damage concrete, some are more concrete-safe than others. Magnesium chloride and potassium chloride are both salts that can melt ice without causing corrosion. Calcium chloride also causes minimal corrosion, making it another popular choice.</p></div>

Q: How long should new concrete last before cracking?

• <div><p>New concrete can crack within 12 hours of finishing, as it can be a common occurrence as the concrete dries and cures. Certain weather conditions and temperatures can slow or speed up the cracking. A concrete contractor plans for cracking during the drying process and keeps some of it at bay by installing control joints.</p></div>

Q: How many 50-pound bags of concrete do I need for a fence post?

• <div><p>The number of concrete bags you'll need depends on the width and length of your fence post hole. A 50-pound bag makes about 0.375 cubic feet of concrete. So, if your hole is 30 inches deep and 12 inches wide, you'll probably need around five 50-pound bags for each post.</p></div>

Q: Does pervious concrete crack?

• <div><p>Like all concrete, pervious concrete is susceptible to cracking due to expansion and contraction from freezing and thawing or heavy weight. Pervious concrete, however, is less likely to crack due to moisture intrusion than traditional concrete since pervious concrete is designed to drain and hold water in the material&rsquo;s voids.</p></div>

Q: Is underlayment necessary for hardwood floors on concrete?

• <div><p>Underlayment is the barrier between the concrete floor and the hardwood flooring. Adding this barrier is a vital step when installing hardwood over concrete, and it&rsquo;s essential for protecting the wood from moisture coming from the concrete. Some adhesives are also manufactured to contain a moisture barrier that can protect hardwood from moisture, even if it&rsquo;s glued directly to the concrete.</p></div>

He dug a trench around the house and poured poison. It took him a day. His work I didn't see but the quality was effective. He broke up the termite tunnels as well. He drilled holes in the concrete and poured poison in there too.
