Q: Can I pour concrete patios or steps myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for small jobs, but professionals ensure durability, proper grading, and compliance with safety codes.</p></div>

Q: What factors affect the drying time of concrete sealers?

• <div><p>Factors like the time of day you choose to seal the concrete, temperature, humidity, and airflow will impact drying time. To shorten the drying time, seal concrete in the late afternoon on a day with a temperature between 45 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit.</p></div>

Q: Should I repair my concrete driveway or have a new concrete driveway installed?

• <div><p>Cost and age are two factors to consider when determining if you should repair or replace your concrete driveway. If your existing driveway is on the older side and the cost of repairs is 50% or more of its value, it might be worth replacing it. Replacing a concrete driveway when it's 20 years old and deteriorating in condition will save you from the cost of repairs that likely wouldn&rsquo;t save it from replacement in a few years anyway. </p></div>

Q: Are there eco-friendly concrete options?

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