Q: Do you need rebar for a concrete patio?

• <div><p>You don't technically need rebar for a concrete patio, but it's a good idea to install it, especially if your patio will support any heavy items. All concrete is susceptible to cracking, and rebar keeps cracks in check while maintaining a smooth, level surface. Without rebar, cracks will likely widen and cause the concrete to become uneven, compromising its structural integrity. </p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between masonry and concrete?

• <div><p>Masonry uses units like bricks, cement blocks, and stone with mortar between them. Mortar is generally made of sand and a type of cement. Examples of masonry include the brick or stone on a house, chimney, or freestanding wall. Concrete is a mixture of water, sand, stone aggregate, and other materials, and is poured into forms or moldings. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-concrete.htm">Types of concrete</a> applications include driveways, garage and basement floors, and poured concrete walls in basements and crawl spaces.</p></div>

Q: Are there eco-friendly concrete options?

• <div><p>Yes, including sustainable mixes and reflective surfaces to reduce heat absorption.</p></div>

Q: Will I need a permit for cement work on my property?

• <div><p>In most cases, you will need a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-building-permit-cost.htm">building permi</a>t for cement work on your property. You need a permit for any project that adds a permanent foundation on your property&mdash;which, in most cases, includes even a flat slab of concrete poured directly on the ground. Building permits for concrete projects usually cost between <b>$100 and $500</b>, although this can get higher for larger projects. You can always ask your cement company if a permit is necessary for your project, and the expert will typically pull the permit for you to save you time and energy. </p></div>
