Q: Should chain link fence posts be set in concrete?

• <div><p>You can technically install a chain link fence without any concrete. However, your fence will be less stable and more likely to shift or lean over time. </p><p>Instead, try setting the terminal, gate, and corner posts with concrete and filling the line post holes with dirt. You&rsquo;ll build a stable foundation without spending all afternoon mixing concrete.</p></div>

Q: How do you get a smooth finish when pouring concrete?

• <div><p>The trick to getting a smooth finish when pouring concrete is to smooth the surface of the concrete with a magnesium float. This tool helps bring the finer, smoother aggregate to the surface for a cleaner finish. Don&rsquo;t overdo the floating process, though, or the slab can become weaker and start to scale. </p></div>

Q: Should you wet concrete before jackhammering?

• <div><p>Yes, you should always wet concrete before jackhammering to avoid harmful dust from becoming airborne. According to the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration, they recommend a wet-cut method that involves continuous spraying of the concrete where the jackhammer bit hits. Use a jackhammer with a built-in sprayer attachment, or have a work partner spray the area with a garden hose and spray nozzle.</p></div>

Q: Can a concrete patio be too thick?

• <div><p>In most cases, you&rsquo;ll want your patio to be 4 inches thick, although you should add reinforcement and increase the thickness up to around 8 inches if you want it to support heavier loads and resist cracking more readily. Although thicker slabs will cost more, you&rsquo;ll start seeing diminishing returns at around 6 inches.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take concrete floors to fully settle?

• <div><p>Concrete can take years to fully settle, but interior concrete floors are mostly settled after a year. Shifting and settling can occur throughout your home&rsquo;s life, but most major settling happens the first few years after the concrete is poured. It&rsquo;s not uncommon for minor cracks to appear in concrete floors over time&mdash;check with a concrete pro to ensure new cracks don&rsquo;t indicate a structural issue in your home. </p></div>

That's my "concrete stamped and decorative walk" the right. Project was completed Apr. 2024 and my original review would have been 5 stars. I need to upload a "now" picture. By early summer we started getting cracks. Contacted Joe and asked him to come by and look at it, and he said it was too...

I realize that concrete has gone up, but I recently had a driveway put in at my other house and it was about half in price- I’ll get another quote to see which one is better

They were awesome. Our concrete driveway was very old, worn and cracked. It took several days to complete the application of the material as we have a very large, double wide, turn around drive. They were friendly, fast and efficient. They cleaned up after themselves before leaving. We are very...

The installer called shortly before the early morning appointment to change his arrival time to noon, then actually came at least an hour past that time. But once he arrived he worked straight through, adding wood to an old frame to make the new door tight and level. We were quite satisfied with...

Work was professionally done, on time and at the price quoted. Donna (owner) and Derick (field tech) were both very friendly, informative about the mitigation process and customer-focused. Follow up testing showed radon level to be significantly lowered to EPA standards.

Mr. Brooks was fantastic to work with. We had issues working around the rainy spring weather, but that's to be expected this time of the year. He and his crew came out on a Thursday and built the frame after first excavating the grass. They then were out the next morning to pour and smooth the...

"As far as we can tell, the work was effective at stabilizing our foundation, and the on-site crew led by Luke was great, informing us of their progress along the way. However, we expressed in advance our concern about protecting some of our landscaping. We were assured the crew would have boards to cover landscaping on which removed dirt would be piled. This turned out not to be the case. I’ve had quite a bit of expense and labor to restore landscaping that was damaged during the work. This damage could have been avoided. Foundation Recovery sends out $500 coupons to advertise for their work. My attempts to contact Joe and FRS to honor even a part of the $500 coupon to help defray my landscaping costs have gone unanswered. Our salesperson, Joe, was not present during the work and has not been responsive to our followup inquiries. We are very disappointed in the poor customer service from Foundation and its representatives. I cannot recommend this company based on their failure to address our up-front concerns, lack of response to our followup requests, and the false advertising that is associated with the coupons."
