Does grass grow through concrete?

• <div><p>While most of the grass below newly poured concrete will die, some will grow through the cracks and around its edges with ease. Some grasses and weeds can even widen hairline cracks in your foundation, particularly the inevitable <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-cracks-in-concrete.htm">concrete cracks</a> that form during the curing process. This is just one of the reasons it's best to remove grass before laying concrete.</p></div>

Q: How much does a concrete driveway cost?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-concrete-driveway-cost.htm">cost to install a concrete driveway</a> is <b>$4 to $15</b> <b>per square foot</b> on average. Your price heavily depends on your desired concrete finish and driveway size. </p><p>For a driveway that is 200 square feet, you can expect to pay an average cost of $1,900. For a driveway at double that size (400 square feet), the average price is closer to $3,800. Plain concrete is significantly more cost-effective, averaging $7 per square foot, whereas stained concrete averages around $19 per square foot.</p></div>

Q: How long do I need to stay off of concrete after sealing?

• <div><p>As a general rule of thumb, allow 24 hours for penetrating sealers to cure and at least 48 hours of drying time for most topical sealers. Always check the instructions for the sealing product you&rsquo;re using to determine the drying time.</p></div>

Q: Can you put hot pots on concrete countertops?

• <div><p>Yes, you can put hot pots on concrete countertops, but only if they&rsquo;ve been properly sealed. While the concrete itself is heat-resistant, the sealant may not be, meaning heat may discolor the sealant, so use caution.</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>

I have intended to write this review for some time. Eric Vansickle and his crew did a excellent job. He designed the new slabs to fit our idea of how to create a "yard room" using our patio. We had a serious yard drainage problem with water coming to the house when it rained. He gave us...
