Q: Does a deck add more value than a patio?

• <div><p>Both a well-constructed deck and a patio can add value to your home. Patios are generally cheaper to build but don&rsquo;t offer the same aesthetics as a quality deck. Therefore, decks can be more appealing to buyers than patios, increasing a home's resale value. </p></div>

Q: Which surfaces are scorpions unable to climb?

• <div><p>Scorpions have difficulty climbing smooth, non-porous surfaces like clean glass or polished metal because their pincers and feet cannot grip the surface effectively. While they are excellent climbers on rough or textured materials such as wood, stucco, or brick, slick surfaces prevent them from gaining traction or anchoring themselves. If you're trying to scorpion-proof parts of your home, using smooth materials for barriers or containers can be an effective deterrent strategy.</p></div>

Q: How much do concrete contractors usually charge?

• <div><p>Concrete contractors typically charge anywhere from <b>$6 to $14 per square foot</b>. Cost factors include job size, site prep, base material, accessibility, your location, concrete finish, and concrete thickness. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-should-concrete-demo-cost-square-foot.htm">Removal of existing concrete</a>, asphalt, deck, pavers, and grass will cost anywhere from $1 to $6 per square foot. Homeowners can often save money by removing and disposing of existing pavers, decks, and grass. Breaking up and hauling away concrete and asphalt is difficult and time-consuming without the proper equipment and may be worth having the pros do that work.</p></div>

Q: Are stone steps cheaper than concrete?

• <div><p>Stone steps are often more expensive than concrete steps as they are specially cut and installed, on top of the material costs. Concrete is more readily available as many steps are precast, although custom-poured concrete steps are an option more similar in price to stone steps.</p></div>

Q: Can I DIY patio installation?

• <div><p>While patio installation requires some heavy equipment to excavate the area and compact the soil, you can learn <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-questions-ask-building-diy-patio.htm">how to do a DIY patio installation</a> and potentially save money versus hiring a pro to do the work. You should be familiar with taking measurements and doing calculations to determine the right amount of materials, and you&rsquo;ll need to be comfortable working with the necessary equipment.</p></div>
