What happens if you don't seal a concrete patio?

• <div><p>If you don’t seal a concrete patio, the surface may crack, fade, or stain. While it’s not strictly necessary to seal a concrete patio, doing so can help protect it, extend its lifespan, and enhance its beauty.</p></div>

Is concrete stronger than masonry?

• <div><p>Yes, concrete is significantly stronger than masonry, especially if the concrete pour includes reinforcements, like steel rebar. Concrete is a uniform material that can withstand compression, sheer force, and tensile force as long as it’s reinforced. Masonry involves the use of mortar or grout to connect individual building materials, like brick, stone, or tile. Mortar and grout are also reasonably strong and resist compression well, but they don’t come close to the strength of poured concrete.</p></div>

Q: What if there is standing liquid on my concrete?

• <div><p>If there is standing liquid on your concrete, remove it before attempting any of the above cleaning methods. For small amounts of water, use rags, a bucket, and a mop. For larger areas of liquid, lay down cat litter or baking soda to soak up the water first. If you have extremely large pools of water sitting on your concrete, break out the wet vac and get to work.</p></div>

Q: Does fiber concrete crack?

• <div><p>Yes, fiber concrete can crack, and contrary to popular belief, it will crack under similar forces to rebar-reinforced concrete. The difference is in how the crack spreads through the slab. When you exert pressure on a slab, the slab flexes downward, putting tensile forces on the bottom of the slab. In rebar concrete, a crack at the bottom will also quickly appear on the top surface. In fiber concrete, the fibers hold the two sides of that bottom crack together, making it less likely for the crack to form on the top surface.</p></div>

Q: Should a driveway apron be concrete or asphalt?

• <div><p>Both <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-asphalt-vs-concrete-driveway.htm">concrete and asphalt</a> are appropriate for your driveway apron. The choice often comes down to local laws and the current material of your driveway. In some cases, your town may require you to install wire mesh or rebar to fortify the material, but both are common in apron installation. </p></div>

He did a great job and didn't overcharge me. He shoveled my walk in the winter which they didn't need to do! He also put rock on my driveway which I was very happy about.
