Q: Can I pour concrete patios or steps myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for small jobs, but professionals ensure durability, proper grading, and compliance with safety codes.</p></div>

Q: Do masons pour concrete?

• <div><p>In most cases, yes, masons can build concrete forms and pour concrete for a variety of home improvement projects, including foundation pouring. Some masons may prefer to focus on more aesthetic and artistic masonry work, like building retaining walls, crafting custom fireplaces, tiling, or installing stucco siding, but most also have experience pouring concrete. You can always <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/questions-ask-masonry-contractor.htm">ask your masonry contractor</a> if they also handle poured concrete projects.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to build a concrete driveway?

• <div><p>Building a concrete driveway normally takes between one and three days, including the time to cure the concrete. Wait at least seven days <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-before-drive-on-concrete.htm">before driving on your driveway</a> and two days before walking on it. Your contractor may require additional time if you need to level the ground, install a drainage system, or order special concrete materials. Installing a driveway also often requires a permit, so be sure to include this wait into your prep time as well.</p></div>

Q: Do you need rebar in concrete steps?

• <div><p>Yes, concrete steps need rebar to reinforce the structure and ensure it can hold weight over time. Place a lattice of rebar inside the form before pouring concrete to give the steps their maximum strength. Tie each intersection together with rebar ties to hold the structure all together. Without rebar, concrete steps can sink, crumble, and lose their longevity.</p></div>

Q: Will a patio cause my property taxes to go up?

• <div><p>Some patios will cause your property taxes to increase, while others will not. A good rule of thumb is that if your patio requires a permit, your taxes will increase. That&rsquo;s because permits are necessary for &ldquo;permanent&rdquo; land improvements, and your taxes are based partially on improvements. Something like a concrete patio that&rsquo;s considered permanent will bump up your property taxes, while a &ldquo;temporary&rdquo; paver patio or flagstone patio will not negatively affect your taxes. Keep in mind that this can vary, so always contact your building department to see if your patio project will affect your taxes.</p></div>

"Everything went as explained, diagramed, and promised by our System Design Specialist, Mr. Nicolas Hruska. We initially contacted just the top two Foundation Repair Experts listed on Angie's List because we can't afford to have our home repaired by anyone who lacks the proper credentials, staff, tools, training, techniques, supplies, 25 year transferrable warranty, and the hands on experience to deliver all services as promised. We are extremely pleased with the final results to take back our homes basement from poor workmanship done by the original builder and owner of our home back in 1979 We purchased the home in 2001 and unknown to us the foundation had been placed on top of clay based sub-soil which was an acceptable building practice back in 1979. Today's building codes prohibit this careless and costly practice of home site preparation for the homeowner. A word to the wise, do your home work first and then protect the biggest asset that most Americans have, their home. Respectfully, Kenny L. Hutcheson, CMSgt, USAF/USN, Ret. Indianola, Iowa"
