Q: How do I remove concrete sealer?

Q: Are concrete septic tanks the most expensive?

Q: Do you need a special drill bit for concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, it's best to use a carbide-tipped masonry bit when drilling into concrete. These bits are harder and more durable than standard bits, so they're designed for drilling into tough surfaces like concrete. A different bit is likely to break and pose a safety hazard so you'll definitely want to stick with one that's specially designed for concrete. </p></div>

Q: Can fake grass be laid over concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, you can lay <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-install-artificial-grass-concrete.htm">fake grass over concrete</a> in a few situations. Concrete that is both stable and has proper drainage is an ideal base for artificial grass and is even a great DIY project. In fact, it's an excellent low-maintenance and eco-friendly alternative to tearing up your concrete patio and planting grass or ground cover plants.</p></div>

Q: How do you know if concrete is fully cured?

• <div><p>You will know concrete is fully cured after 28 days when the new concrete reaches its maximum strength. Follow the cure time information on the manufacturer&rsquo;s label or ask your concrete pro about when your concrete is fully cured. You can drive your concrete once it&rsquo;s partially cured, usually around seven days after it&rsquo;s poured. After one week, the concrete is strong enough to hold up to regular-size vehicles.</p></div>

the work was done quickly the next day with four guys on the job to finish quickly; the only negative I would say was the clean up of the area around the concrete flatwork sealing could have been a bit better and timely.
