What is the most common cause of concrete cracks?

• <div><p>The most common cause of concrete cracks is shrinkage when the concrete hardens and cures. The stress from the shrinkage exceeds the concrete’s strength. Concrete cracking can also occur when it experiences extremely cold or hot temperatures, such as a particularly harsh winter or a firepit built into a concrete patio.</p></div>

Q: What are the benefits of concrete floors?

• <div><p>Concrete floors are durable, low-maintenance, and customizable with various finishes and colors.</p></div>

Q: Can I just use cement on its own?

• <div><p>No, cement cannot be used on its own except for rare circumstances, as it's only a binder to form other products, such as concrete or mortar. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to create a concrete or mortar mix. Concrete, for instance, needs cement, water, and aggregates such as sand and gravel. Using the right amount of water and water temperature is essential to ensure you have the right <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/concrete-slump.htm">concrete slump</a> and the mix spreads easily and cures well. </p></div>

Q: How can you tell if a concrete job is bad?

• <div><p>Visible cracks, scaling, flaking, and uneven surfaces indicate a bad concrete job. Additional signs vary depending on the project. You may notice poor drainage or even exposed rebar. Quality issues result from using the wrong concrete, rushing the work, or inexperienced workers completing the job.</p></div>

Q: What’s the most affordable way to level a concrete floor?

• <div><p>Mudjacking is your best bet for leveling concrete on a tighter budget. It&rsquo;s less expensive than foam or grout mixture. For smaller, surface-level issues, you could also use a self-leveling compound, which creates an even surface over existing concrete&mdash;it&rsquo;s a budget-friendly option suitable for DIY enthusiasts. </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.
