Q: Can you seal an old garage floor?

• <div><p>Yes, you can seal an old concrete floor as long as you remove stains and repair damage before sealing. Remove everything from the garage and clear the floor throughout with a concrete cleaner and power washing. Fill in cracks larger than 1/8 of an inch wide and remove all grease and rust stains before sealing. Make sure your concrete is fully dried before applying sealer.</p></div>

Q: How much do cement companies charge for concrete projects?

In most cases, you can also expect to pay for leveling, surfacing, and add-on services, like stamping concrete. Here are some typical prices for common concrete projects for which you may hire a cement company.</p><p> </p><ul><li><p>Walkway: $1,800</p></li><li><p>Driveway: $2,800</p></li><li><p>Standard patio: $3,300</p></li><li><p>Stamped concrete patio: $4,000</p></li><li><p>Concrete steps: $3,500</p></li><li><p>Colored concrete: $3,800</p></li></ul><p>You might also need to budget for removing your old concrete or additional land prep before your professional can pour concrete.</p></div>

Q: What goes under a floating deck?

• <div><p>What goes under your floating deck depends on your preferences. Some homeowners put landscaping fabric underneath their decks to prevent weeds from popping up through the boards. Others choose to build a floating deck over grass or gravel. However, it&rsquo;s best not to set your deck directly on the ground. Instead, set your deck on blocks to keep it elevated enough to prevent moisture from rotting the wood. </p></div>

Q: Will I need a permit for cement work on my property?

• <div><p>In most cases, you will need a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-building-permit-cost.htm">building permi</a>t for cement work on your property. You need a permit for any project that adds a permanent foundation on your property&mdash;which, in most cases, includes even a flat slab of concrete poured directly on the ground. Building permits for concrete projects usually cost between <b>$100 and $500</b>, although this can get higher for larger projects. You can always ask your cement company if a permit is necessary for your project, and the expert will typically pull the permit for you to save you time and energy. </p></div>

Q: Does adding water to concrete increase the slump?

• <div><p>Yes, adding water to concrete will increase its slump, so you should do so with caution. Always measure the slump of the concrete batch before you adjust it, and be sure not to add too much and push the slump too high. Doing so can cause the aggregate to separate, set inconsistently, or shrink.</p></div>
