Q: What adds more value: pavers or concrete?

• <div><p>A paver patio will add more value than a concrete patio. Pavers are a more commonly preferred option from an aesthetic and longevity point of view, so most buyers will be willing to pay more for a paver patio than they would for a concrete one. Pavers also don&rsquo;t require a permanent foundation, so they won&rsquo;t increase your property taxes. Buyers also prefer lower property taxes, so that will play into the ROI you&rsquo;ll see, too. </p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between a floating slab and a monolithic slab?

• <div><p>A floating slab is a single chunk of concrete that sits directly on flat soil, while a monolithic slab is a single piece of concrete that includes built-in footings that reach several feet below where the majority of the slab sits. Monolithic slabs provide more support, so they&rsquo;re suitable for home construction, whereas floating slabs get minimal support from the soil directly below and are more common under sheds and detached garages.</p></div>

Q: What is the lifespan of concrete floors?

• <div><p>Concrete floors can last 50 to 75 years or more when properly sealed and maintained. Some concrete finishes, like polished concrete, will need to be refinished periodically&mdash;depending on the finish and foot traffic, you may need to refinish or reseal your concrete floors every five to 20 years. Keeping the concrete properly sealed will prevent damage and extend the lifespan of your concrete floors. </p></div>

Q: What is the life expectancy of concrete log siding?

• <div><p>Concrete log siding can last several decades, from 30 to 50 years or more, as long as you keep up with proper maintenance. Luckily, concrete log siding is much lower maintenance than typical <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-wood-siding.htm">types of wood siding</a>, so you&rsquo;ll also have fewer expenses during that time. To keep your concrete log siding in good shape, you&rsquo;ll simply need to reseal it every two to five years. Confirm with your manufacturer to determine how often to reseal.</p></div>

Q: How often should I water new concrete?

• <div><p>You should water new concrete by spraying it five to 10 times per day for the first seven days. This process of moist curing allows the concrete to become as strong as possible to prevent cracks and weak concrete. Moist-cured concrete is 50% stronger than concrete that was not sprayed with water during the first week. The only exception is if you pour concrete in the winter. Then, spraying with water is not recommended.</p></div>

Job was to install brick coping around a free-form pool and re-point existing patio (concrete pavers) into the coping. The quality is excellent. Visually, it's so much better that what it replaces. There was a lot of labor here as every brick and paver needed to be cut to fit. That said, the...

Initial meeting was at a wedding hall open house. Followed up by email to narrow choices. Two consultations at her home, including a tasting. Cake was delivered on time and was exactly what we wanted. Cake flavors were very good, and the guests raved about the decoration.
