Is thicker concrete less likely to crack?

• <div><p>Yes, thicker concrete is less likely to crack. The thicker the concrete is, the less susceptible it is to extreme changes in weather conditions that often cause concrete to crack or chip. If you’re unable to install a thicker concrete driveway for any reason, you can also ask your professional to install more rebar or wire mesh to provide greater strength and better resilience to damage. </p></div>

How do you make old concrete steps look better?

• <div><p>You can refresh the look of old concrete steps by investing in concrete resurfacing, which can serve to patch crumbling or broken sections of concrete. You can also paint or stain it if there isn’t any surface damage to address and you’re just dealing with discoloration. For a quick and easy solution, you can also cover up any unsightly spots with potted plants, garden statues, lanterns, and other decorative items. Even if they don’t completely disguise the problem areas, they’ll still spruce up the overall look.</p></div>

Q: Can you dry pour concrete over existing concrete?

• <div><p>You can dry <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/can-you-pour-over-concrete.htm">pour concrete over existing concrete</a>, but it&rsquo;s best to use wet pour concrete instead. Dry pour concrete is easier to apply, but in order for new concrete to adhere to old concrete, it needs the right mixture for slow, uniform curing. Additionally, dry pour concrete is less durable and less resistant to cracking and concrete sinking, so dry pouring over an existing slab may result in surface imperfections appearing prematurely.</p></div>

Q: What can I use to repair a concrete garage floor?

• <div><p>You can use epoxy-based concrete fillers to repair small cracks and dents in the floor. For larger damages, remove any debris, then patch the cracks or holes with concrete repair products or resurface the entire floor. We recommend using fast-curing products that cure in four hours. You can also buy a pre-mixed concrete patch and leveler if you are only repairing parts of your floor.</p></div>

Q: How do pros prevent future issues in flatwork?

• <div><p>By reinforcing with fibers, sealing surfaces, and ensuring correct drainage.</p></div>

Noah exceeded my expectations at a competitive price . Clear communication, and fast! His estimate was spot on and it was clean and professional work. Noah did a 60amp sub panel install for my new garage, and also wired in four new outlets in my basement as I only had one down there. Thanks...
