How much does concrete cost?

• <div><p>The average cost of concrete for stairs or slabs is between <b>$110 and $150 per cubic yard</b>, or between roughly <b>$4 and $5.50 per cubic foot</b> for materials. Installation, form building, form materials, and preparation will increase the cost to between <b>$150 and $200 or more per cubic yard</b>. </p></div>

Should I patch, resurface, or replace my concrete?

• <div><p>Concrete blemishes such as chipped steps or small cracks are fixable with patching. For bigger jobs, including <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/driveway-repair-should-you-patch-resurface-or-replace.htm">driveway repair</a> and cracks wider than a 1/4 of an inch, patches will only serve as a temporary fix. Resurfacing is ideal when the surface is showing more widespread wear—like if it’s pitted, rough, or has lots of cracks. Resurfacing gives your concrete a fresh, like-new appearance without needing a full replacement.</p><p>When the concrete is severely cracked, sinking, or otherwise structurally unsound, replacing it might be your best option. Replacement ensures the safety and longevity of the surface in this case. </p></div>

Q: Does pervious concrete crack?

• <div><p>Like all concrete, pervious concrete is susceptible to cracking due to expansion and contraction from freezing and thawing or heavy weight. Pervious concrete, however, is less likely to crack due to moisture intrusion than traditional concrete since pervious concrete is designed to drain and hold water in the material&rsquo;s voids.</p></div>

Q: How long do stained concrete floors last?

• <div><p>Stained concrete floors are extremely durable and can last a lifetime if properly maintained, which includes properly sealing them every few years or as needed. While some concrete floors can last for decades, exposure to extreme weather conditions may shorten their lifespan. Also, some stains, such as acid stains, are not as durable as others and may only last 20 years.</p></div>

Q: Can you screw directly into concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, you can screw directly into concrete, but only if you use screws specifically made for masonry or concrete. They're often labeled as masonry screws and made of steel and a special thread that provides a strong grip. However, even when using these screws, drilling a pilot hole first will make it much easier. </p></div>

I've been going to Panache for a month and a half and they are very friendly. I'm very please with the girls that do my nails. I called today and they told me they could see me tomorrow. It's homey, stylish, and nicely decorated. I like Panache so I keep going back.

Furnace works fine. Black tracks are still on the concrete floor. Tech did not have a nozzle, so I gave him my spare. I have never had it replaced, nor received any credit on the billing for it.

I only had an idea of what I didn't want for a kitchen, and a vague idea of what I might want (a gas range, lots of storage space, no island, place for recycle bins). With that and photos of my then current kitchen, I met with Sara from 'Carole's Kitchen and Bath designs' and Sara was able to...
