Get matched with top concrete finishing pros in Rio Linda, CA

Q: Can I pour self-leveling concrete over concrete?

• <div><p>Yes&mdash;as long as the area has been properly prepped. Different self-leveling brands and compounds have their own specific instructions for preparation; some may require that you add primer or grind the surface. Without proper preparation of the surface, the compound will not be able to fully bond to the concrete and fill the cure as a separate layer, which makes it prone to chipping.</p></div>

Q: What can I do with extra-wet cement?

• <div><p>The easiest way to handle extra-wet cement is to pour it, let it harden, and then recycle it using one of the methods above. You can also crush it down and sell it for base materials, although this can be pretty time-consuming. Your best bet is to start with less concrete than you need and make more as you go to avoid this problem.</p></div>

Q: Which paint finish is best for concrete?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-types-exterior-paint.htm">Exterior paint finishes</a> come in a variety of options, but for concrete, your best bet is to go with an eggshell, satin, or semi-gloss latex paint. All three options are more durable than matte finishes and should help hide imperfections on your home&rsquo;s concrete surface.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to stain or paint concrete?

• <div><p>Generally speaking, stain is a better option for concrete because it soaks into the surface and won&rsquo;t get worn away like a topical paint will. Painting concrete increases the risk that moisture will get trapped beneath the top layer of paint, which wears concrete down over time. So long as you know how to prep concrete for staining, you'll maintain its strength after you finish your project.</p></div>

Q: Are countertop overlays worth it?

• <div><p>Countertop overlays can be worth it for homeowners looking for an affordable way to update their kitchens without the hassle of removing existing countertops. As their name implies, overlays are installed over existing counters, saving time and labor. However, you must prep the underlying surface properly for long-lasting adhesion.</p></div>

The crew showed up 30 minutes early , reviewed what I wanted done, and went to work. A team of 3, each working and helping one another until the job was finished. There was a lot of dead wood and they did a great job cleaning up, too.
