Q: How much does concrete labor and pouring cost?

• <div><p>Labor and pouring adds between <b>$8 and $18 per square foot</b> to your total for concrete delivery. Especially for larger projects, it&rsquo;s usually a good idea to <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/concrete-delivery/">hire a professional concrete delivery company</a> when it comes to installing concrete surfaces even though it will undoubtedly cost more to hire a pro to do the work for you. </p></div>

Q: Should I install concrete, stone, or brick pavers?

• <div><p>Deciding between <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/brick-vs-flagstone-patio.htm">concrete, stone, or brick pavers</a> comes down to your budget and the ease of installation. Concrete is the least expensive material, followed by brick and then natural stone. Concrete pavers are also the easiest to install, but bricks are relatively easy as well. Stone pavers require more time and labor because their natural shapes make them harder to fit together. Professional stoneworkers, however, are able to shape them as needed.</p></div>

Q: What is the ideal distance between stepping stones?

• <div><p>About 6 inches between the edges of each stone in the sequence is common. Rather than sticking to 6 inches, some people measure the length of the entire path and adjust the space between stepping stones a couple of inches wider or narrower than 6 inches to make sure the entire path fits the length perfectly without having to cut a paver at either end. Other people prefer a design with a 24-inch distance from the center of one stone to the center of the next stone, which matches the stride of an average-sized person.</p></div>

Q: Can you turn a regular basement into a walkout basement?

• <div><p>Yes, it is possible to turn a regular basement into a walkout basement. Doing so involves excavating the land around at least one side of your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/basement-foundation.htm">basement foundation</a>, installing retaining walls to create a permanent below-grade area outside your home, and then cutting into the foundation to install an exterior door that leads out to the new space. This is an expensive and time-consuming project, but it can add a lot of value and utility to your home.</p></div>

Q: Does a concrete walkway or sidewalk need rebar?

• <div><p>Whether a concrete walkway or sidewalk needs rebar depends on how it will be used. Walkways and sidewalks meant for light foot traffic don&rsquo;t need rebar, and you can use wire mesh instead. But concrete surfaces that will see heavy machinery will likely need it.</p></div>

"They are very unprofessional and are emailing me to reschedule an appt to start off, then when they show up the workers are picking at my steps and pulling pieces off of them without my permission or even starting the project I feel that’s vandalism!! Then the workers proceeded to tell me why was I doing a repair they need to be replaced and I said that’s what it was supposed to be. My request was an estimate for a stair replacement/rebuild not a repair. So they called their boss and he also stated that he thought he out rebuild on the invoice that I signed which he did not. So I asked for a refund of the $800 deposit I gave them. Now they are telling me I’m only getting 50% back because I signed the invoice and it states that if I cancel before 3 days that I will only receive half back. I understand I signed it yes but they didn’t do what I asked which is why I was cancelling their workers touched my property when they shouldn’t have and now my stairs are in worse condition and they won’t even answer the phone. They emailed me to stop calling them"
