Q: What’s the difference between a floating slab and a monolithic slab?

• <div><p>A floating slab is a single chunk of concrete that sits directly on flat soil, while a monolithic slab is a single piece of concrete that includes built-in footings that reach several feet below where the majority of the slab sits. Monolithic slabs provide more support, so they&rsquo;re suitable for home construction, whereas floating slabs get minimal support from the soil directly below and are more common under sheds and detached garages.</p></div>

Q: Can I pour self-leveling concrete over concrete?

• <div><p>Yes&mdash;as long as the area has been properly prepped. Different self-leveling brands and compounds have their own specific instructions for preparation; some may require that you add primer or grind the surface. Without proper preparation of the surface, the compound will not be able to fully bond to the concrete and fill the cure as a separate layer, which makes it prone to chipping.</p></div>

Q: How to dry concrete quickly?

• <div><p>Use a dehumidifier for indoor concrete and a wet vacuum for outdoor surfaces. Sprinkle absorbent materials like sawdust or cat litter to soak up the remaining moisture. If the concrete is outside, simply wait for a few hot, dry days. If the concrete is inside, make sure you have good ventilation for a few days so that any remaining moisture can completely dry out.</p></div>

Q: Does a concrete driveway need rebar?

• <div><p>There&rsquo;s no legal requirement that states that you need rebar in a concrete driveway, but since the slab will be supporting heavy vehicle loads, it&rsquo;s always a good idea to pay a bit more for rebar reinforcement. Your driveway will be much more likely to crack if you don&rsquo;t reinforce it with rebar. Driveways that need to support commercial vehicles or provide parking for multiple vehicles at once should always include rebar reinforcement. If you&rsquo;re <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/can-you-pour-concrete-over-asphalt.htm">pouring concrete over asphalt</a> or pouring concrete over an existing slab, you may not have enough depth for rebar, meaning an increased risk of cracking. </p></div>

Q: How much do cement companies charge for concrete projects?

• <div><p>Cement companies often charge a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-deliver-concrete.htm">per-cubic-yard cost for concrete</a>, which averages around <b>$130</b>. In most cases, you can also expect to pay for leveling, surfacing, and add-on services, like stamping concrete. Here are some typical prices for common concrete projects for which you may hire a cement company.</p><p> </p><ul><li><p>Walkway: $1,800</p></li><li><p>Driveway: $2,800</p></li><li><p>Standard patio: $3,300</p></li><li><p>Stamped concrete patio: $4,000</p></li><li><p>Concrete steps: $3,500</p></li><li><p>Colored concrete: $3,800</p></li></ul><p>You might also need to budget for removing your old concrete or additional land prep before your professional can pour concrete.</p></div>
